Katharine had exactly dragged Stephen Osborne into her bedroom, of course. Still, she bore the brunt of the responsibility. She had acted on impulse-something she never did. She had paid for the night of madness, though; she quit before Steven could fire her.

Then Steven came back into her life, insisting they do what people always do when there's an unexpected baby on the way--get married.
