C.J. Harte

C. J. Harte was born in New York but lived in many places while growing up.  After her family finally settled in the South, she attended college in the Deep South where she obtained her degrees as well as a significant Southern accent and a unrelenting sense of humor. 

During her residence in the South, C. J. was a political activist while maintaining a full time job in health care.  She edited a women's newspaper, wrote political editorials and satire, and was a speech writer for political candidates.  She eventually climbed down the corporate ladder and moved out west, where she works in health care and continues to write from her Cheyenne home.  She and her partner have homes on two continents since they live on opposite sides of the ocean much of the year. 

When not working or writing, C.J. Harte is either commuting between continents or spending time with her four-footed friends in her beloved Wyoming, looking out at the mountains and blue sky.

Dreams of Bali  (2008)

Madison Barnes eats people for lunch.   

Work, power, and success are the idols Florida attorney Madison Barnes worships, and she’s never allowed anything, or anyone, to interfere with attaining them—except for her younger sister Dee and Dee’s family, Madison’s one weak spot.  At her sister’s request, Madison reluctantly agrees to spend a weekend with Dee’s closest friend, a woman Madison considers a smart-ass troublemaker.  To Madison’s consternation, she discovers that the young college activist menace she remembers has turned into an attractive, exciting woman she can’t quite keep out of her thoughts. And Karlie Henderson Stockard vividly recalls the acrimonious relationship with her best friend’s older sister, and she isn’t looking forward to the reunion with Madison.

Memories of their past encounters leave both women unprepared for the different kinds of sparks that arise when they meet. Despite a fiery attraction, Madison refuses to make any commitment, and Karlie distrusts both Madison and the feelings Madison engenders. Karlie eventually walks away from what is growing between them only to discover a new danger in her life—one that threatens more than her heart. Soon Madison and Karlie are thrown together again, only this time the consequences may be deadly.
