Writes:

I write Celtic fantasy romance, contemporary romance and romantic comedy. WHAT
YOU DO TO ME, out November 1, 2016 is a flirty, fun, humorous contemporary
romance/romantic comedy.

About:

I live in Minnesota, where the winters are long, brutally cold and darkโ€”the
perfect environment for writing if one does not enjoy outdoor winter sports. I
transitioned from a twenty-year teaching career into full time writing in
October, 2015, and now I get to make stuff up all day long. I love my job!

  • My ideal reader will have a great sense of humor.
  • My ideal reader loves to read books that make them tear up as well as laugh.
  • My ideal reader is a happily-ever-after junkie.
  • My ideal reader is a โ€œglass half fullโ€ kind of person.
  • My ideal reader doesnโ€™t mind missing sleep when swept away by a good story.
  • My ideal reader loves heartwarming, tug-at-your-heartstrings books.
What to expect if weโ€™re compatible:
  • My readers can expect to experience a wide range of emotions while reading my books.
  • My readers can expect to feel satisfied and happy when they finish reading my books.

WHAT YOU DO TO ME by Barbara Longley

What You
Do To Me

Whether itโ€™s repairing a home or taking care of clientsโ€™ other needs, Twin Cities handyman Sam Haney is in demand from his mostly female clientele. Despite Samโ€™s lothario reputation, love isnโ€™t part of his portfolio. Heโ€™s built a lot of walls in his time, but the one thatโ€™s surrounded his heart ever since the death of his parents is his most solid yet. Haley Cooper has had enough heartache for a lifetime. Her high school sweetheart up and moved to Indonesiaโ€”aloneโ€”just two weeks before their wedding. Her mother thinks itโ€™s time for Haley to move on and contracts Sam to work on Haleyโ€™s wreck of a houseโ€”and anything else, if heโ€™s got the notion. Sparks fly and passion ignites. But Haley isnโ€™t into Samโ€™s love-โ€™em-and-leave-โ€™em act. She wants something more. Fixing a house is one thing, but for this handyman, building a relationship will need a whole different set of skills.
