(Kimberlin Brown
) and Dr. James Warwick (Ian Buchanan
) in 1997. Sheila kidnapped her and left town over a year after her birth. Years later, a sixteen-year-old Mary, who Sheila had renamed Erica, returned to LA
, to meet her idol, Amber Forrester (Adrienne Frantz
). She soon moved in with Amber and her husband Rick
(then played by Justin Torkildsen
) after being employed as their son Eric's babysitter. Erica, who knew nothing about her past or her true identity, began growing closer to Rick, much to Amber's outrage. The tension between the two women boiled over when, during a confrontation, Amber accidentally injured Erica, who was taken to hospital. Rick was horrified at what Amber had done, believing that she had hurt Erica on purpose. He asked for a separation. Amber moved in with Taylor (Hunter Tylo
) and Ridge
(Ronn Moss
). Ridge, who believed Amber was "trailer trash", was unhappy about his wife's decision to give her a chance, and even contemplated leaving Taylor for his ex-wife Brooke Logan
(Katherine Kelly Lang
).
Sheila, who held a grudge against the Forresters, convinced Erica to try to seduce Rick and conceive his child, thus cementing her place in the wealthy family. Erica reluctantly agreed. Sheila kidnapped Amber (unbeknownst to Erica), while Erica began trying to seduce Rick. However, when Ridge found out that Erica was really Sheila's daughter, he burst into Rick's house and put a halt to the seduction, telling Rick the truth about Erica, prompting Rick to disown her. Meanwhile, Amber was rescued by Stephanie (Susan Flannery
) and Massimo
(Joseph Mascolo
). Sheila escaped and shot Taylor, leaving her in a coma. Sheila was jailed. Erica visited her mother in prison, telling her that she never wanted to see her again. Sheila warned Erica that "the apple doesn't fall far from the tree". Erica told Sheila that she was reclaiming her real identity, as Mary Warwick, before leaving town to find her father.
In 2011, it was strongly rumored that Courtnee Draper could possibly return to The Bold and the Beautiful
full time to accompany Ryder Callahan, who could be possibly joining the show also full time in the fall of 2011, crossing over from The Young and the Restless
