WILD LAND—WILD LOVE To lovely young Kristianna, the virgin land of the Wisconsin Territory was ripe for the plow; she and the other Swedish immigrants had worked hard to carve homesteads out of the vast wilderness, and they saw nothing wrong in claiming it for their own. But arrogant Stone Boucher disagreed violently. A trapper by profession, a maverick by inclination, he wanted nothing to do with encroaching civilization. Sodbuster and woodsman, Kristianna and Stone were natural enemies, yet they couldn't stay away from each other. And once she was in his arms, Kristianna discovered that Stone was as excitingly untamed as the land itself.

Stef Ann Holm was born in Southern California near Hollywood. With the fantasy worlds of Disneyland and Universal Studios at her doorstep, her imagination was stimulated at an early age. She attended Chatsworth High where Kevin Spacey, Mare Winningham and Val Kilmer entertained on the school's stage. As a semester elective, Stef Ann enrolled in drama and played a Fandango hostess in the chorus of Sweet Charity. It was the beginning and the end of her acting and singing career. She got a "C" in Drama and an "A" in Creative Writing. She sold her first romance in 1987. While waiting for a load of laundry to complete at the laundromat, Stef Ann made up the name for her heroine, Camry, when she saw a Toyota Camry parked outside in the lot. Who knew that model would end up being so popular, making her in-depth research seem so shallow. Stef Ann has had twenty-three novels and one novella published. Her editor calls her contemporary romances, "Slices of life stories about real people." Stef Ann lives in Boise, Idaho with her husband, extended family and beloved Beagle.
