More About the Author

Heather MacAllister lives in Texas and is married to her high-school sweetheart. Following the instructions in How to Get a Teen-Age Boy, and What to Do with Him When You Get Him by Ellen Peck, one of her all-time favorite books, she expressed an interest in his hobby -- ham radio. He challenged her -- learn Morse code and get her license, and he'd take her to the senior prom. She did, and currently sports her call sign, WB5RMA, on her car license plate.

Heather became addicted to romance novels in college, yet still managed to graduate and become a music teacher. And then her sons were born. Within seven months, nine baby-sitters quit, so she took pity on the childcare industry, quit teaching, and began avoiding housework by writing during her sons' nap time.

Heather has published over 45 books with Harlequin. Her award-winning romantic comedies have been translated into 25 languages and published in dozens of countries.

Before she was published, Heather won the Romance Writer's of America Golden Heart Award. Her published novels have been nominated for the RWA RITA award three times, and Harlequin.com readers voted LONE STAR SANTA favorite Laugh-Out-Loud book of 2006. In addition to awards for best Harlequin Romance and best Harlequin Temptation, Romantic Times Book Reviews has twice nominated Heather for a Career Achievement Award in Series Love and Laughter.

When she's not writing, Heather spends her time collecting vintage jewelry, watching fireworks displays, and killing plants.

4.0 out of 5 stars A spicy romantic romp, November 30, 1999

This review is from: The Good, the Bad and the Cuddly (Bachelors & Babies, Book 4) (Harlequin Temptation #757) (Mass Market Paperback)

All she was going to do was stop for a nanosecond at the East Street Community Center. However, that moment turns into a frantic lifetime for Maddie Givens when two thugs hijack her car occupied by her infant nephew. Steve Jackson quickly leaves the nearby Casa Garcia restaurant and grabs his motorcycle to give chase. However, before he can go, he finds himself saddled with the Virgin Mary, a role Maddie is to perform in the play that night.

As Maddie and Steve work together and become locked up along with the baby, an attraction between them explodes. However, Steve who looks like the classic bad guy rebel is an underground insurance investigator. His three-year search for missing doubloons has imploded with the inadvertent interference of Maddie. AS the good (Maddie) falls in love with the bad (Steve) who reciprocates those feeling, both protect the cuddly (baby) from harm from the criminals.

THE GOOD, THE BAD, AND THE CUDDLY is a humorous romantic romp that is just the right spice for the holiday season. The story line is fun as the lead couple fights with thugs who appear to have learned their trade from the Home Alone crowd. Steve's inner struggle between staying solo and his growing love for Maddie adds fiery tension to the tale. On the other hand, Maddie's scorched heart fights with her brain, as she wants to be bad with Steve, but act as pious and good as her parents and sister. Heather MacAllister provides the audience with an enjoyable novel that will tempt many to search for her previous delightful books.
