Welcome, Romance Readers,
I hope you enjoy navigating through the pages of my website. I hope you enjoy, as well, getting acquainted with some of the women and men I've had the privilege to "meet" while writing my stories.

In my paranormal romance, Spirit of the Heart, I'll introduce you to Lindsay Jackson, a young woman who believes she must watch Kent Stuart, the man she loves, marry her dear and emotionally fragile cousin. Neither Lindsay nor Kent realize that the ghost of a man sixty-years dead is driven by his own unrequited love that will alter the future for everyone.

Teacher, Teacher, my contemporary romance. This is the story of Cate Munro, a widowed mother and dedicated educator, who has to fight to save the music classes she teaches from budget cuts. Her opponent in this battle is Tom Flannery, the divorced father of a child in Cate's class, who uses his position on the district school board to eliminate curriculum, such as music, he considers non-essential. Mutual distrust gives way to mutual attraction, as these two people overcome past broken hearts and teach each other to love again.

My newest book, Marista, is a futuristic romance and is available now from ImaJinn Books. The place is Planet Serraine in the year A.D. 2364. My heroine, Marista Kaljin, is a Terran diplomat dedicated to the ideal of peace. Tynan, my hero, is a warrior well-trained in the use of blunt force to achieve an objective. Both have been scared by personal tragedies that reinforce their dedications to opposing duties. Somehow, they must find a way to honor the heart's greatest duty - to love.

Please click on the links to each of these books for excerpts from the stories. I hope you enjoy "meeting" my characters as much as I enjoyed letting them tell me their stories.
Enjoy the romance! Barbara
