Roz saw her first book, Red Hot Pepper, published by Harlequin Books in February 1990. She has written for several Harlequin series lines as well as special projects and online serials. Besides being a writer Roz has worked as a medical secretary and as an administrative assistant for both an elementary school and a community college. Part of her love for writing came from moving around with her husband during his tenure in the Marine Corps and later as a telephone engineer. The richness of settings and diversity of friendships she's experienced continue to find their way into Roz's stories.
I really liked this book! Star Lederman is determined to give her adopted daughter, SeLi, a wonderful christmas! SeLi, a nine year old, wants a dad for christmas. Her christmas wish means a husband for Star whether she wants one or not. SeLi already has the man picked out and is going to wish on the christmas star. Her wish is that Clay McLeod will be her daddy. Clay is a rancher with a soft spot for children and animals. He believes in family but is not interested in marriage especially to Star, a woman he believes is having an affair with his married brother.
