QUICKSILVER DESIRE Lovely, golden-haired Camry Parker knew rough-and-ready Virginia City was no place for an unmarried girl. But to Camry's way of thinking, the bridegroom her father selected was worse than the riffraff he was supposed to keep at bay. Nick Trelstad was nothing but a dusty silver miner, with more muscles and arrogance than any one man had a right to possess. His casual assumption that she would soon be begging for his touch enflamed her almost as much as the tantalizing nearness of his hard, bronzed body. Never, she vowed, would he know how she longed to be his wife in every sense of the word.

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.
