Hello,
I very much enjoy reading your books and was wondering when the next would come out.
Also, are you going to do a book about Brandon and Charlotte? It sounds like
they would make a great story and I hope you write it. Thank you very much for any
information you can give me and for your wonderful stories!

You're one of my favorite authors and I check your
website often to see if anything new is coming. I was pleased to discover that you
do actually have a new book that St. Martin's Press has listed for release this
September.
Thank you for taking the time to read my e-mail. I'm so happy to know about the new
book. Can't wait to read it!!!

I just finished
" With all my Heart", the last in a series about the Kenyon brothers. Now they
have a step brother, Samual Firth, I'm assuming with the way the book ended that their are
more adventures in store for the family as well as the "Rosebuds". Are there
books in the works for Samual Firth and for Charlotte and Brandon????? I'm dying to
know!!!! Could you please let me know if there are books out or if they are works in
progress.

I have just
finished reading your book With All My Heart (as well as the other 2 related ones) and I
had to tell you how wonderful they were. I read a lot of romance books and
these were the some of the best I have read in quite a while. Do you have any
information about when the next book will be out - based on the way With All My Heart
ended I'm sure the "Rosebuds" will have to save the day again.
Thanks for
listening. You keep writing and I'll keep reading :) :)

I just wanted to
tell you that I just finished With All My Heart. I sat down yesterday and presto 3 hours
later it was all gone. I had a book hangover this morning!!!
I thoroughly
enjoyed it, I loved Joshua and Anne , he was a great leading man and I love the Rosebuds,
they remind me of my greataunt.
I was wondering
about your next book One Wild Night, I saw it on Barnes & Noble website, who is it
about? You kinda left me hanging at the end of With All My Heart, will it be Samuel Firth
or Charlotte and Brandon. It was hard to tell, I'm really hoping its C & B.
Although,
hopefully, you have some plans in mind for Samuel???Will you be putting up the cover and
blurb (and an exerpt PLEASE, PRETTY PLEASE) for One Wild Night on your website?
Anyway, thank you
for many hours of reading pleasure over the years.
All the best,

hoping that you will devote books to two characters mentioned in WAMH, Samuel
Firth and Brandon Villiers. They both sound extremely intriguing, and the Epilogue
certainly presents an opening for future development. I don't know if you respond to
e-mails or not, since I assume you are very busy. However, if you do, I can't wait
to find out whether I can look forward to finding out more about these two men that are

I hope the e-mail reaches the right person, i.e., the marvelous Barbara Dawson Smith. I am a fan of romance history books and I have loved all your novels translated in Italy. The last novel I read is Romancing the rogue, that I have liked very much. In the novel, however, I have been very much impressed by one of the secondary characters, Brand Villiers count of Faversham. In the novel, he appears twice but he is so intriguing (at least, this is my impression) that I would see him as an ideal main character...does a book like this exists? If the answer is no, have you consider inserting him in a new book? I hope so! Again, congratulations to an author I do appreciate, as many other romance history fans in Italy,
sincerily, Elena

I like falling in

enjoy sequels so much. I picked your latest book "With All My Heart".
I found there are two other brothers (I'll pick those up next). I'm assuming
that there will be another books involving the "Rosebuds". I'm also
anticipating a book for Samuel Firth. When can we expect that book? I've
always wanted to write. I've tried but I get too busy and don't seem to get back to
it. Glad you don't have that problem. Do you have other
sequels that I could get?

have gone through many stages of reading in my 60 plus reading years; to wit: Lancelot, Little Women, Anne of Green Gables,
Civil War novels, murder mysteries, legal, detective and humorous books. I have recently begun reading historical romances
and am having a ball. Now that I have
discovered yours, I plan to read many more of them.
I have printed your list of books and will be purchasing them from Waldenbooks. Thank you for the enjoyment and pleasure I know I
will get from reading all of your books.

I
have read two of your books and completely enjoyed them both. I wasn't aware there were so many others I was
missing, and I am excited that I now have more to look forward to! Thank you for
writing quality romances, and for having a strong voice.

Hello,
just
wanted to say I started with TEMPT ME TWICE (ok, so I'm congenitally backwards! <g>)
and really enjoyed the Kenyon family. It also prompted me to glom your backlist, but the
burning question is, "Will Brand Villiers ever get his story?" I hope?
Thanks, Lynne Welch - Reference Librarian

Hello,
Barbara. I just finished Tempt Me Twice and
loved it. I was delighted to read about the
Rosebuds again and be reacquainted with Romancing the Rogue. Will there a book about Lord Faversham, Brandon
Villiers? He sounds soooo yummy! Thanks
again for a great book.

In

to put it forward on the website. You know, all other books written by you and published
here received such a good attention (Her secret affair ; too wicked to love and seduced by
a scoundrel) and we loved them so much...

I
was wondering if you could also tell me if you have any plans of telling Brand, the Earl
of Faversham's story or Joshua Kenyon's story? in the near future? I just finished reading Romancing the Rogue and
Tempt me Twice. GREAT!! I think Brand deserves/needs the chance to show everyone
else the soft side that
I KNOW he has! How I wish I could kiss that scar of his! : )

weeks ago. I love them. I was looking at your
website to see what book I need, and it turns out that I already had one of your books 'A
glimpse of heaven". I hope your out of print books are reprinted. Just in case I have

Dear
Barbara,
I
just finished reading your book, Tempt me Twice.
This was the most entertaining book I have ever read.
my first thought was, I have to write to this
author and tell her what a joyous escape this book has been for
me! I could not put this book down. I took it with me to work, in the car, everywhere! You brought
all the
perfect
elements together to make a perfect story. I have never read a book with so much sexual tension,
it made the characters so exciting. It was so nice to escape into another world while reading your
book, thats
what reading
is all about, the magic of falling into the
story.Thank you for sharing your talents and allowing
readers
to do that. After reading Tempt me Twice , I
tried another author but I could not get into the book after
reading yours. Your book had me comparing other authors, and they did not measure up! Im
looking foward to
reading
more of your books. I loved the twists and turns
in the story line. The suspense at the final
climax was
better than any action or thriller movie I had ever seen. This storyline would make the best movie!
Sincerely, Courtney B. Midyett

Dear
Ms. Smith:
I have the entire collection of your titles
published by St. Martin's Paperbacks. All of
them are truly marvelous reads and real delights. "Tempt
Me Twice" is no exception to this axiom.
While I was reading the first few chapters,
I had the most unsettling feeling. To quote
Yogi Baera "It's deja vu all over again." The
feeling was deja vu. Then with the entrance of Sir Charles Damson to the scene and his
reaction to the adorable Jabbar, something clicked for me, and I practically stood up and
shouted out "Belloq! Of course, Rene Belloq."
"Tumdedumdum, Tumdedum..."
the music from Steven Spielberg's "Raiders of the Lost Ark" (1981) was
resounding in my brain and I could then see parts of Gabriel as Indiana Jones, Kate as
Marion Ravenswood (yes, spelled in the masculine form), Charles as Belloq, Ashraf as
Sallah, and of course the monkey as the monkey. I
loved that movie. I've always felt that the Indy-Marion history and relationship should be
fleshed out and explored, because it smacked of a great story in answering all those
questions about their pasts hidden beneath all that cardiac-arresting action. I'm so glad that you explored similar avenues with
your "Tempt Me Twice." It is a
perfect reversal of the "Raiders" emphasis, with the action secondary and the
personal themes primary.
I felt a tiny touch of the
Lerner and Lowe musical "Gigi," between Lady Stokeford and Nathaniel Babcock. "Ah yes, I remember it well." Very
evocative of Uncle Honore and Grandmamma Alvarez's duet.
The premise of a strong, prickly
older sister, with a sweet younger sister, and a redoubtable suitor determined to tame the
older sister and woo the wench is very reminiscent of Shakespeare's "The Taming of
the Shrew." That was a film too, Franco
Zeffirelli (1967).
Of course, underlying, the
whole shebang, is the mystery of the statuette. Not
unlike John Huston's "The Maltese Falcon" (1941).
Please don't
mind my saying that your books are always terrific. You never let your readers down and
always produce quality. That makes you a genuine, bona fide, dyed-in-the-wool, straight
shooter (kinda like ol' Indy).
Thank
you for letting me write to you and take care.
Sincerely, Ytta Bethel Carr

I just finished reading
"Tempt Me Twice" and I really enjoyed it from beginning to end. It came to me half way through the book that it
also tied into a book I had read months before; Romancing
the Rogue. Michael and Gabriel are brothers. I love books that tie into each other like this
and I remember hearing mention of another brother named Joshua in both books. I wonder if you've already written his story, or
if you plan to? I would love it if you have
the chance to e-mail me sometime in regards to my question.
Thank you for taking the time to read my letter.

Hi
Barbara,
I am
an avid fan of yours. I have read mostly all of your books, except for the out of print
ones. I have yet to sit down and research as to where I can find them. But I just loved
reading your books and you are one of my favorite authors. I have been reading romance
novels since I was a teenager. I have a family now and that's never stopped me from
reading romance novels. At the end of the day, when everything's quiet, my son (5 years
old) and my husband are both asleep, I take an hour or two with my feet up, sitting on my
favorite chair and just read. You are a wonderful writer, please keep up the good work! I
always look forward to reading your books.
My
favorites are "Romancing the Rogue" and "Seduced By A Scoundrel".
Excellent books! By the way, I read Michael Kenyon's & Vivien's story, and I'm reading
Gabriel's and Kate's story now, is there or will there be a story about Joshua Kenyon? I'm
just curious. I'm only on first chapter of "Tempt Me Twice" and it just dawned
on me that Gabriel is Machael's brother. Please tell me if I need to research Joshua's
story (or maybe I have read it, I just forgot or didn't realize the book's connected to
Romancing the Rogue)or do I look forward to his story. Just dying of curiosity.
Sincerely,
Margie Salvador

Just
wanted to drop you a line to let you know how much I enjoyed browsing your website.
Your daughters are lovely and I am so glad to know they love to read. I am a 71 year old grandmother and was read to as
far back as I can rememeber. I have been addicted to reading since I learned to read. My biggest thrill was to work in the library in
Jr. High and High School and earn credits for the privilege.
I
also want to thank you for the Out of Print section. I have a new hobby of trying to find
these types at our library, used book stores and at the auction sites. It bothers me when I can't find out what the book
is about before I bid. But thanks to you I
have saved the synopsis of yours for reference.

Hi Barbara, Wondering if 'Once Upon a Scandel' is still in print.
I am from New Zealand and have to order your books as well as other authors through a book importer (Bookshop)
the result is that it is unavaliable. I enjoy reading your books and after reading a excert from the above, I can't wait to read it.

Dear Mrs. Smith,
My name is Alicia Daniels. I am 21 yrs
old, I have never sat down and read a book
from start to end without putting it down and months later picking it up again, until my
cousin Betty who is also a devoted fan of
your books handed me Too Wicked To Love.
Since the day I picked up the book I
couldn't put it down. I would find excusses
to read, stay up till dawn telling myself one more chapter one more chapter till my eyes
could not stay open any longer. That is how
into your book I was. Then when as I read the
ending I couldnt believe the book was over. I
wanted more I wanted there to be a sequil.
I cant even begin to explain how
your book touched me. I started to care for the characters.
I would loose myself in chapter after chapter. Suddenly, my everyday little problems didnt seem to
overwhelm me anymore and I wanted to thank you. I
have started another one of your books Never A Lady that I am sure I'll enjoy even though
Too Wicked To Love will always hold a special place in my heart, not only because it was
the first book i had

Dear Ms. Smith - I'm a recent
fan of romance novels and I'm quite particular of the authors I deem worthy of my time. I find that most of them are quite tedious and
silly. I care about the writing style and
prefer that it abstains from frivolous and repetetive nonsense. My favorites are Judith McNaught, Sandra Brown,
Nora Roberts and Susan Elizabeth Phillips (another new discovery) and Mary Jo Putney. My friend is an "about to be published"
romance novelist and suggested I try you - I
am delighted. I am happy to know you have a
nice list of books and will look forward to reading them.
