Pediatrics and Portraits (ePub)

Doctor Gregory Seth was Best Man for his friend and colleague, Robert Harrison. Harrison has assured him that marriage is worth all the trials and tribulations. As a busy pediatrician Greg hasn't had much time for dating, and his one serious adult relationship had not worked out. With Harrison's assurances ringing in his ears Greg decides to start searching for a wife. He just hasn't quite figured out where or how to start. He also figures he's out of practice since the only recent twitches in his libido (which he puts down to 'misfires') have happened when he's been in proximity to Vicki, his office receptionist. When the avid photographer signs up for a life-drawing class to help give his photography a little more depth he's startled to find the model for one of the classes is his receptionist. He finds that she is an oil and water-color artist and like many such artists she occasionally models for life-drawing classes.

Over coffee after the class they get to know each other's stories. They each also admit to being attracted to the other and decide to spend some time getting to know each other.

"Holy crap," Vicki thinks. "Greg is interested in me. Okay, Vicki, settle down now. But, holy crap! Doctor Gregory Seth...nearly professional photographer...absolutely gorgeous hunk...wonderful human being...is interested in me! Take a deep breath, Victoria. Breathe. Breathe. God, I love his face, not to mention his body. Holy crap!"

After a rather innocent day spent at a park, the night is not so innocent. Their relationship grows by leaps and bounds. They become more and more deeply involved. And love expands and includes more surprises than either could have anticipated.
