About the author
Kate Hoffmann
394 books106 followersKate began reading romance in 1979 when she picked up a copy of Kathleen Woodiwiss's Ashes in the Wind. She read the book from cover to cover in one very long night and was immediately hooked on the genre.
The next morning, she was standing at the door to her local Waldenbooks and when they opened, she hurried inside and asked for everything else written by Woodiwiss. At the same time, she found wonderful books by Rosemary Rogers, Laurie McBain, and Jennifer Blake.
Nearly 10 years later, while working as an advertising copywriter, Kate decided to try writing a romance of her own. After a history of interesting jobs in teaching, retailing, advertising, and nonprofit work, she was determined to add romance author to that list.
After numerous failed attempts over three years, Kate decided to forget writing historical romance and turned to category romance. Six months later, her first story, A Vagabond Heart, was finished. A year later, Harlequin bought the book after Kate won the national 1992 Harlequin Temptation contest. The book was published in 1993 as Indecent Exposure.
Her dream of adding romance writer to her resume came true and in December of 1993 she turned off her alarm clock, shredded her pantyhose, and became a full-time writer.
Since then, Kate has written numerous books for Temptation, Weddings by DeWilde, Harlequin anthologies, Love and Laughter, and Duets. Her new Duet, Three Babies and a Bargain (July 2000) will be her 24th project for Harlequin and All Through the Night (August 2000), a Temptation Blaze, will mark her 25th.
Kate lives in southeastern Wisconsin in a cozy little house in a picturesque village. Two cats also live with her—Tansing, a grumpy Himalayan, and Tibriz, a tortie Persian mix that she rescued from an animal shelter. She enjoys gardening, golf, reading, and romantic movies.

The last few pages of this wonderful Christmas romance story brought tears to my eyes.. !
From the first page to the last had me wanting to be able to read it faster ... because a great storyline ! ... and looking forward to hearing more about future visits to Montana and Cooper's Corner ! I enjoyed meeting Grace, Tucker, Susan Q and Bryan.
I enjoyed how Tuck's nine kids were worked into the story !!! :-)
I became fond of Grace's children Susan and Bryan.
Looking forward to reading more books in this series.
A great book!

Grace Penrose is shocked to discover that the 4 Morgans needed to pull the sleighs at the Cooper's Corner Christmas Festival have been sold and are about to be transported to Montana. She uses all her persuasive tactics to get Tucker McCabe to stay in town for the next 2 weeks and lend them his horses. However, there is no room at the inn and Grace has to put him up, feed him and help take care of the horses for him to stay. Tuck moves in and begins to feel at home with her and her children. But are these feelings for real or just infatuation. Tuck and Grace need to sort out their lives and get to their real needs before the Festival ends and Tuck leaves. Nice romance.

August 6, 2011I love this book. From how Grace is described, to the entry of Tuck, to the mingling of Tucker with the children Susie and Bryan and last to the Christmas festival description. It was a great read!. Love which awaits surely does live happily ever after. I love how the goats go to sleep every time they hear a loud noise and everyone thinks the goats are dead. LOL!.I cant wait to read the other books of this "Coopers Corner"

Another good book to read in this series. I like that the books give a little bit of suspense closer to the end so you gotta pick up the next book to see what else is gonna happen.
