I was torn on Shae in the TV show at first, but it showed how hard she resisted being turned into a maid, how much she resented losing the good life Tyrion had made for her. She refused to believe it was to keep her safe, and was quite nasty to him for a while after, only being nice again to get what she wanted from him. She wasn't a monster, so I suppose she grew to care for him a little, but really, looking back over the series, I think she was just using him. But, this is all guessing. In the books or the TV show, we never get a POV from his lover, so we have to guess her motivations based on her actions.
If she gave a slight crap about Tyrion, she would have gotten on the boat, instead of going to sleep with his dad. That's what I think anyway.
