. . . author of historical and time-travel romance
SISTER OF THE MOON is
set against the ancient pagan festival of Samhain, better
known to us as Halloween. And SPIRIT
OF THE MIST is the story of a young woman who has sworn never to marry,
for she will lose her magic if she does -- and then she saves a handsome
young man from certain death at sea . . .
MISTRESS
OF THE WATERS, released in May of 1999 from Leisure
LoveSpell, is the latest in the "Celtic Journeys" series.
MISTRESS OF THE WATERS is a time-travel romance which takes on the ancient and powerful ritual of life and fertility called Beltane -- although our heroine knows it only through its much-diluted modern descendant, May Day. Strange things can happen, she discovers, when one is chosen Queen of the May, and the hawthorn flowers are cut to make a crown . . .
"A moving story
of ancient rites and beliefs . . . readers who like Gothic and magic will
love this story." --

LADY OF FIRE was published in August of 1996 by Leisure LoveSpell. The plot involves a celebration of early spring called Imbolc -- a celebration which happens to fall on the same date as the heroine's birthday.
"Readers are whisked
into the land of mists and warriors, Druids and legends, as Ms. O'Kerry
spins a delightful yarn of undeniable love."

Magazine, August 1996
Author Bio
My writing career began in 1984 when I sold the first of over 100 non-fiction
articles written for the national and regional horse magazines. All of
those pieces appeared under the name "Janeen S. DeBoard."
A few years later, a friend and I decided to try our hand at novels. We
wrote three and sold the third one, APRIL'S
CHRISTMAS, to Avalon Books
in 1994.
I've always had a great interest in Ireland, history, horses and fantasy,
and truly enjoy combining all these things in my novels.
Please don't be shy -- tell me what
you think! E-Mail your address to me and I'll be happy to autograph
your bookplates and such, using my special silver pen and Celtic knotwork
seal.
