Hidden Desire

This quick interview includes info about the author, and introduces
the story.

About the Author

Writing for Barbara Donlon Bradley started innocently enough.
Like most, she kept diaries, journals, and wrote an occasional letter but she also
had a vivid imagination and wrote scenes and short stories adding characters to
her favorite shows and comic books. As time went on she found the passion for writing
to be a strong drive for her. Humor is also very strong in her life. No matter how
hard she tries to write something deep and dark, it will never happen. That humor
bleeds into her writing. Since she can’t beat it she has learned to use it to her
advantage. Now she lives in Tidewater, Virginia with two cats, one mother in law
– who’s 87 — her husband, and son.

Interview with Barbara Donlon Bradley

Why did you write this
book?

Because if I didn’t, I think my characters would have beaten
me up in my sleep. This is the 8th book in a series I’ve been working on.

What is your favorite
genre to read?

I like reading what I write which is SF/futuristic but I also
edit for a publisher so I’m reading a lot of different genres. It’s something I
enjoy and it makes me a little sharper when I edit my own work.

Who is your favorite character
from fiction (not including your own)?

Wow – I have to pick just one? Hmmm, I’ve always loved Thomas
Covenant the Unbeliever – I loved the series so much I bought the books in hardback
back when I was young and broke.

What are you working on
at the moment, and will see from you in coming months?

I am finishing the edits on book 9 of my series titled Timeless
Desire. I changed the timeline leaving only two people who know what happened and
their job is to set it right. Then I’m working on the next book in the series, editing
a werewolf book I wrote several years ago and have a short story I want to write
about dragons.

Please tell us about your
latest book.

Heather wants to fight beside her people, not watch from a safe
distance. So when her brother comes up with a way to disguise her she jumps at the
chance. Now she can try out for an elite team to help defeat Reasta, who has a stronghold
on their planet. No one knows who she is, including her mate, who has also been
disguised. They must find each other, qualify for the team and help rescue the elders
without being found out.
