One of six children, Pamela was born and raised in Minnesota and often uses the Midwest as a setting for her books. She believes there's something special about the region that makes it the perfect setting for stories about love and family. It's also the place where she fell in love with her real-life hero, her husband, Gerr.

Pamela and her husband spend much of their recreational time in the lakes region of northern Minnesota. They enjoy roasting marshmallows over an open fire and listening to the call of the loons in the summer, and in the winter they trek through the woods on snowshoes and fish through a hole in the ice. Is it romantic? Ask a Minnesotan and you'll likely get the answer, \"You betcha!\" says Pamela, who treasures those moments up north.

Since selling her first romance in 1986, Pamela Bauer has gained fans around the world for her heartwarming stories about love and family relationships. She has written over twenty books and plans to continue to write stories about people falling in love and living happily ever after. She hopes that when you read one of her books you'll smile and maybe even laugh out loud, but more important, when you've finished the story you'll feel good - about families, about life, and about love.

Pamela and her husband live in a small community just northwest of Minneapolis. They have two children, Amy and Aaron, and a bichon-poo that thinks he's human.

The bridesmaid is pregnant

The stuffy air in the church and her queasy stomach are a bad combination, especially since Krystal Graham is trying to hide her condition particularly from Garret Donovan, the groomsman assigned to escort her down the aisle. The groomsman who just happens to be the father of her baby.

Unfortunately, once the \"I do's\" are over and the newlyweds are on their way, Krystal knows she's in trouble, and she tries to make her exit before she embarrasses herself. But that's the least of her worries. Garret's a smart man and a doctor.

FAMILY MAN

LOCAL MAN IS HERO

Thirty–five–year–old Tyler Brant saved the life of popular TV personality Kristen Kellar when the small plane they were travelling in crashed into the St. Louis River near Hibbing, Minnesota.

Brant single father of a six–year–old daughter was not available for comment.


Tyler Brant has no intention of speaking to reporters. And while he's happy that Kristen Kellar is recovering, he wishes she wouldn't keep telling people he's a hero. All he wants is to put the crash behind him, get on with his life, spend more time with his daughter.

Still, he can't forget the beautiful woman he'd carried from the wreck. Unfortunately, Kristen's big news and Tyler has reason to stay away. But he hadn't counted on Kristen's determination to thank him in person. And he hadn't counted on his little girl's growing attachment to her.

He certainly hadn't counted on falling in love .","rating":"3.25","stock":0,"date":{"__className":"DateTime","date":"2012-07-06 00:00:00.000000","timezone_type":3,"timezone":"Australia/Sydney"},"sale_date":{"__className":"DateTime","date":"2012-07-06 00:00:00.000000","timezone_type":3,"timezone":"Australia/Sydney"},"product_id":12248,"isbn13":"9781460860205","title":"Daddy's Home","seo":"daddys-home","summary":"...","image":"https://harpercollins-millsandboon-au.imgix.net/covers/9781460860205.jpg?auto=format&w=298&blend=https://supadu-imgix.s3.amazonaws.com/harpercollins-millsandboon-au/EBOOK.png&blend-mode=normal&blend-size=inherit&blend-y=0","hide":false,"categories":[{"name":"Contemporary","type":"bisac","seo_name":"FIC027020"}],"scheduled":[]},{"description":"

Truly a Merry Christmas!

Merry Mattson has come a long way in her life–from poor and unwanted child to successful musician.

One of her few ties to childhood is her continuing friendship with Holden Drake. He'd been not only her best friend but the first boy she fell in love with; now he's a wealthy and decidedly cynical divorce lawyer in California. Out of long habit, Merry visits Holden every Christmas–although they both insist that Christmas means nothing to them.

This Christmas is different, though. Because Merry's engaged and she won't be joining Holden in California. Holden's convinced that she's making a mistake–and he decides to join her in Minnesota instead.

MAIL ORDER GROOM

\"WHAT YOU NEED IS A MAN!\"

No, Hannah Davis corrected her meddlesome aunt. She needed a hand not the rest of the man who came with it! A burly, able body to tend the acreage not a tall, sexy stranger in a Stetson, who looked at her with doe–brown eyes that melted her soul.

WHAT SHE GOT WAS A COWBOY!

Hannah couldn't believe that her aunt had actually advertised for this cowboy. True, he liked her son and his dog and he did make her long for someone to share the big house during those long, lonely nights . That is, until she discovered the real reason he was on her land – that old biddy aimed to have her legally wedded and properly bedded!","rating":"3.33","stock":0,"date":{"__className":"DateTime","date":"2012-07-06 00:00:00.000000","timezone_type":3,"timezone":"Australia/Sydney"},"sale_date":{"__className":"DateTime","date":"2012-07-06 00:00:00.000000","timezone_type":3,"timezone":"Australia/Sydney"},"product_id":12534,"isbn13":"9781460863367","title":"Mail Order Cowboy","seo":"mail-order-cowboy","summary":"...","image":"https://harpercollins-millsandboon-au.imgix.net/covers/9781460863367.jpg?auto=format&w=298&blend=https://supadu-imgix.s3.amazonaws.com/harpercollins-millsandboon-au/EBOOK.png&blend-mode=normal&blend-size=inherit&blend-y=0","hide":false,"categories":[{"name":"Contemporary","type":"bisac","seo_name":"FIC027020"}],"scheduled":[]},{"description":"
WEDDING DRESS
FOR SALE
Size 7, never worn. It's a masterpiece. He wasn't. Call Annie at 555–7255.

After breaking her fourth engagement, Annie Jamison had a mountain of debts, a heal of white lace and a shoe box full of mementos. Why not sell the dress? She obviously wasn't destined to wear it anyway! But when the Bargain Shopper switched her phone number with an ad for a vintage truck, Annie had some choice words for the conceited oaf who called himself The Pick–Up Man.

In the flesh, Mr. Pick–Up was gorgeous, sexy, with a body to die for. Unfortunately, he was also her first ex–fiancé the only man she truly ever loved.
