Hi
I'm the author of forty novels in romance and women's fiction. Including NYT bestseller A PLACE TO CALL HOME and WSJ bestseller THE CROSSROADS CAFE. Former Loveswept series romance author of fifteen titles for that line. Wrote as Jackie Leigh for Second Chance At Love romances and as Jacquelyn Lennox for Silhouette. Also write as Leigh Bridger in the urban fantasy SOUL CATCHER series. Multiple award-winning titles. That's the main stuff but also: I'm V.P. of Bell Bridge Books, a Tennessee-based small press co-owned by me, former RWA V.P. Debra Dixon, veteran romance authors Sandra Chastain and Martha Shields Crockett.

My next novel will be SHEPHERD'S MOON (see my profile pix: that's a thumbnail pix from the cover.) Publishing in May 2013. In 1930 a brutal family feud killed more than 150 people in the mountains of North Carolina, leaving one of the only survivors, a young girl, on the run for her life. With justice always just beyond her reach, she builds a farflung new family and creates lifelong allies, but returning to her desecrated mountain valley as a grown woman leads to more intrigue and secrecy--a momentous legacy that carries down to the current generation, in which her only grandaughter must partner with the powerful descendent of the rival family in order to resolve the bitter conflict once and for all.
