Barbara Barrett

Barbara Barrett spent her professional career as a human resources analyst for Iowa state government, and that training has stayed with her in her writing of contemporary romance fiction.

Now retired, Barbara spends her winters basking in the Florida sunshine and returns to her home state of Iowa in the summer to “stay cool.” Married to the man she met her senior year at the University of Iowa, they have two grown children and eight grandchildren.

Her works for The Wild Rose Press include: And He Cooks Too, Driven to Matrimony, Saved by the Salsa, The Sleepover Clause, Tough Enough to Tango, Seduction on Wheels, Keeping It Casual and Not Your Mama’s Mambo. In October 2016, she joined Roxanne St. Claire’s Barefoot Bay Kindle world with her first novella, Paradise by Design. The first entry in her indie series, “UnderWright Productions,” Don’t Toy with Me, launches July 12, 2017.
