Check out this review of Betrayed by Trust at RT Book Reviews!
Small sampling:
This is a story full of intrigue and betrayal, with characters that may or may not be trustworthy. Add to this an underlying theme of family that grounds the players in what’s truly important and this book is a winner.

The lovely Angela Campbell was nice enough to share her webspace with me so I could participate in the Tasty Summer Reads Hop! I answered 5 questions, and share a fantastic spaghetti sauce recipe from Betrayed by Trust.
Here’s an excerpt:
1) When writing, are you a snacker? If so, sweet or salty?
Oh, yes, I have to snack, but I try to snack on healthy stuff. And I like to mix the sweet and salty—peanuts and raisins, or sliced apples with cheddar cheese or peanut butter. Yum! Or a bowl of cherries, grapes, whatever’s handy. If I’m writing late in the evening I like to snack on Prosecco…and dark chocolate.
2) Are you an outliner or someone who flies by the seat of their pants? Are they real pants or jammies?

Head over to Happy Ever After to see what I have to say about DC scandals and how it relates to Betrayed by Trust!
Here’s an excerpt:
When you look at the Clinton affair, JFK’s multiple affairs, and all the congressmen and senators’ affairs, have you noticed that it’s always the men getting caught with their pants down? Their wives and married female colleagues never seem to get caught, but are they really so innocent or are they just better at being sneaky?
Son of the Enemy is a Night Owl Top Pick with 4 1/2 stars!Here’s some of what they had to say about it:
The chemistry between John and Hannah is off the charts. Their relationship is very realistic in its portrayal. I loved how slowly the relationship built and how each of them was unsure of the other. While the sex was hot and steamy, it was not the main focus of the book.
Overall, this was a fantastic book. The mystery was interesting and all of the secondary characters helped to draw you into the story.
Son of the Enemy was reviewd on the Guily Pleasures Book Reviews website!
Here’s some of what they have to say:
“This is the first book I have read of Ms. Barrons and let me just tell you she knows how to pull a reader into a world full of secrets, suspense, heartbreak and passion. This book had all of the elements I crave in a romantic suspense” ~ Rhayne, Guilty Pleasures

In the meantime, I’m blogging on the USA Today blog Happy Ever After today about some TV shows that helped inspire my new book—stop by and say hi!
Here’s a small excerpt:
As authors we have to use our imaginations—goes without saying, really. As romantic suspense authors, our imaginations often take us to some pretty dark places. And we live there for as long as it takes to feel the chill down our spines or the outright terror clawing at our guts and get it down on paper. We go back there, over and over, to those black corners, cobwebbed hidey-holes and damaged psyches, smoothing the contours, adding that final layer, the slightest hint of light or deepening darkness.

Excerpt:
Why you should read it: Six sentences in I realized I would not be putting this book down until I’d read the final page. Not only was I held rapt by the suspense-filled scene unfolding in front of me, but I had it bad for the hero. Or I did, until theWrongfully Accused part kicked in — then of course I had to keep reading to find out how Kate is vindicated, and how Gabe gets his comeuppance. Then there was the little matter of the villain’s identity — and all I have to say about that is that this author is delightfully diabolical.
