After a nursing career spanning more decades than she likes to admit, Barbara J. Rosie retired to the coast of South Australia' s stunning Fleurieu Peninsula with her beautiful and slightly neurotic Australian Shepherd, Shiloh. Nestled between rolling hills and a panoramic coastline, she lives amidst the wetlands of an eco-village, free to write the fantasy books she loves and always wanted to read. When not at her desk, Barb loves family get-togethers, playing sadly inconsistent golf, catching up with friends, and early morning walks along the beach to watch the sunrise.
