description: "Inconvenient! Is that how you regard William, too?"
  
  Until now, Cassie's life had been independent and carefree, so she was relieved that the secretarial job she'd taken on to help out her aunt Kate was only temporary-after all, could anyone be expected to work for very long with Adam Merrick ?
  
  He was demanding and difficult-and he disapproved of everything about her ! However, after a while, Cassie found herself wanting to be part of Adam's life-especially when it involved caring for his small nephew, William.
  
  William needed a mother, and Cassie was determined to prove that Adam needed a woman in his life-and not just to pick up after him !
