Welcome to my website! Books have played an important part in my life, and perhaps they have in yours, too. They've provided the heroes and heroines of my childhood, information I needed when rearing my children, and recreation as well as relaxation. There's no gift I treasure as much as a good book!
In times of stress such as those we live in now, books are a wonderful escape. They take us to places we will never visit except in our imaginations, and they introduce us to fascinating people who are not and never will be part of our immediate worlds. Books make us think, they make us laugh and they make us cry. Books truly enrich our lives.
I am proud to write books that people want to read. My readers are important to me, and often when I'm writing, I think about a typical reader and what my book will mean to her. Will she love my book? Will she hate it? Will she recommend it to her friends, or will she shred it and use it for cat litter? Most importantly, will she remember it always?
Well, maybe. And maybe not. But in the course of my career, I've had many touching letters from fans who wanted me to know that something I wrote changed their lives. So here's a request from me: If something in one of my books is special to you, please let me know by e-mailing to my website. I'd love to post your comments.
Enjoy your visit to pamelabrowning.com, and happy reading!

DOWN HOME DIXIE
No Self-Respecting Southern Belle Would Consider It!
Fresh from reenacting a Civil War battle, Kyle Sherman, dressed in his Union uniform, is lost in Yewville, South Carolina, home of the giant peachoid water tower. Dixie Lee Smith knows that anyone in a Yankee uniform should be treated as the enemy - shunned, or at the very least ignored. But with no Southern gentlemen pounding down her door, Dixie wonders if maybe the state of their potential "union" should be addressed. And once she discovers there's competition for Kyle, this particular rebel belle is determined to win the handsome Yankee for herself.
She's got a battle on her hands for sure.....

DOWN HOME CAROLINA CHRISTMAS
As different as oil and water!
Allowing a movie crew to take over her gas station in Yewville was a bad idea, and it never would have happened if Carrie Smith's home hadn't desperately needed a new roof. Then, along with the stretch limos, came Luke Mason and his Ferrari - a picture-perfect combo no small-town girl could resist.
While the petite mechanic was pretending she thought everything about Hollywood and the sweet-talking charmer was phony, her prickly reserve was challenging Tinseltown's hottest property, and he wasn't going to give up.
After all, women everywhere would die for his megawatt smile. Surely he hadn't fallen for the only woman who could do without it. No way would Christmas arrive without Carolina Rose Smith knowing just what the determined Luke Mason had in mind!

SNAPSHOTS
The wrong twin. And the right one...
Only Rick McCullough knows the real reason he married Martine Barrineau instead of her twin, Trista.
Best friends since the age of nine, the three were inseparable as children. But it was Trista with whom Rick shared something deeper than friendship - and they have the enduring memory of one special night to prove it.
Ten years and so much heartbreak later, Rick and Trista might have a second chance. But by this time, life's twists and turns have taken them down very different paths.
Sweetwater Cottage in South Carolina's Low Country was where they'd always felt a special connection, as their snapshots of so many memorable vacations show.
Now, after all these years, they're together at Sweetwater Cottage again...

THE TREASURE MAN
Finders, Keepers?
When Chloe Timberlake agrees to look after the Frangipani Inn, her cousin's bed-and-breakfast, she expects to find the fabulous Florida inn of her youth, not a derelict mansion ready to collapse. Handyman Ben Derrick is also a shock. The golden boy of her teenage fantasies appears tarnished beyond repair.
Chloe soon learns that tragedy hit Ben so hard that he spent years drowning the pain. Unable to work as a salvage diver, he gave up hopes of ever finding a pot of gold.
But sometimes the treasures that mean the most are hidden deepest in our hearts. The shifting sands of our lives don't always part voluntarily to reveal what lies beneath. Sometimes you have to dig deep and have to keep the faith that something of value will eventually surface.
You first met Chloe in BREAKFAST WITH SANTA, the story of Beth and Tom. Join Chloe and Ben as they learn that the greatest riches of all are the treasures of the heart.

St. Nick says he can't deliver, but the ex-marine in the Santa suit just might!
Money is tight for Texas single mom Beth McCormick, so she compensates for what she can't give five-year-old Mitchell materially in other - but maybe not so wise - ways. Like never telling the child no.

on Bethany's doorstep - addressed to Colt.
Colt wanted to reveal his secret past, especially when Bethany thought he was
the baby's father. True, this cowboy had a few closely guarded secrets, but
being a daddy wasn't one of them. The wrangler was desperate to reveal the
truth - but baring his soul could mean losing his one true love.....
