Having a rich English ancestry that can be traced back to the 1500s, BARBARA PIERCE credits her grandmother and the romantic family tales she was told as a child for inspiring her early fascination with English history.
Striving to balance her love of history with the need to tell a compelling story, she debuted in 2000 with A Desperate Game. Since then, she has created two successful family series, the Bedegraynes and the Carlisles.
In 2006, the first book in the Carlisle series, Wicked Under the Covers was nominated by Romantic Times for their prestigious Reviewer's Choice Award for Best Sensual Historical.
Barbara currently lives near Atlanta with her husband and three children. Readers may write to her at P.O. Box 2192, Woodstock, GA 30188, or visit her Web site at: www.barbarapierce.com for updates on her next book.
