Nobody Knows
Gillian Dempsey must find a reason to go on…
Easier said than done after a rare virus robs her of both parents. Left alone and confused, the mourning nineteen-year-old flees to her three best friends, who receive her with open arms.
Her parents give her more than an inheritance—they give her a second chance at life…
When Gillian is left with some properties in her parents’ will, she assigns them to a real estate agent to manage. Joel Matthews takes the job, but he quickly becomes more than a business associate. After a string of fortunate coincidences, Gillian and Joel spend a passionate night together—after which Joel all but vanishes from her life.
But they still have unfinished business, and Gillian won’t allow him to slip away—especially with her heart.
Life is a roller coaster of tragedy and joy…
Gillian reels him in, and soon the two are married. Gillian’s heart expands even more when they receive the news of their first pregnancy. But after the baby is born, things aren’t the same. Joel becomes distant…resentful. And then the abuse begins. Darkness consumes their marriage—only to get worse.
While Gillian tries to hold her family together, it seems Joel is doing everything to tear them apart. But just one slip of his temper makes all the difference, because this time, there’s no turning back.
Maybe being abused can be endured, as long as Nobody Knows…until someone ends up dead.

Perfection is Just an Illusion
James Thompson is an Olympic swimmer with gold medals, world records, and million-dollar sponsorship deals…
But his fiancée Anna White is just an ordinary girl—or so she believes.
When James takes her home for a visit and encounters her childhood friends and sleazy, jealous ex-boyfriend, Grant, he sees for the first time just how far apart their worlds really are.
Anna’s so-called friends undermine and backstab, but James is up for the challenge…
James is determined to make Anna see that while she might have once been an ugly duckling, she is now a stunning swan, and the only woman for him.
As the London World Championships approach, media scrutiny of their relationship intensifies, and an intimate secret is uncovered...making their promise to each other nearly impossible to keep.
Caught up in a whirlwind of press coverage, and championship competition…
James and Anna find the stress almost overwhelming, and they struggle to maintain focus on their goals. But when victory finally appears certain, an old menace resurfaces and threatens to violate all James and Anna hold dear.
Is it possible to have a perfect life?
A perfect love?
Or is perfection just an illusion…

Nobody's Obligation
Ava Jacobs is a shy accountant by day, aspiring romance writer by night—and her first novel just got published…
Romance isn’t a big component of Ava’s life. That is, her real life. As the monotonous nature of crunching numbers and drawn-out board meetings slowly eats away at her, the only bright side to her otherwise mundane routine lies on the black and white pages of her debut romance novel. Her inspiration? A long-time infatuation—Tyler Andrews.
Until the Olympic swimmer read her novel and connected the dots…
Tyler Andrews is used to being the center of attention. But when his sister throws a romance novel in his lap, he’s surprised to be the inspiration for the hot, hunky hero. He has no idea who Ava Jacobs is, but he’s not at all happy with her using his likeness to spice up her steamy scenes. When he finally tracks her down, it’s her likeness that intrigues him.
It takes just one romantic dance at a company banquet to spark disaster…
When Tyler’s manager arranges a daring publicity stunt and offers him as an auction item at Ava’s fundraising banquet, the bids come in quick and hot. Little did Ava expect the winner, a work colleague, to donate Tyler as Ava’s date. With all eyes on the Olympic athlete, Ava can’t refuse a romantic dance. But even though Tyler was the inspiration for Ava’s steamy novel, she refuses to accept his attention if it’s not real.
Will Tyler lose the one woman who caught his interest? Or will Ava push him away in an effort to prove she’s…
Nobody’s obligation.

About Rebecca Barber:
Rebecca,
one of four kids to her parents who are both primary school teachers,
was born in Wollongong on the south coast of Australia before moving
to the country with her family. After a few years of embracing all
that country life had to offer, the family relocated to Port
Macquarie with its white sand beaches. After a brief period enjoying
the sun and the surf they finally settled in Canberra where Rebecca
still lives today. But all through her childhood a notepad and a book
where never far away. These days Rebecca is an avid reader, and when
she isn’t buried in a book or cheering on her beloved football team
she’s spending time with her husband Robert and their overly spoilt
dog Levi.

Interview With Rebecca Barber:
- Can you tell us a little about your books? The swimming upstream series is based on a Olympic Swimmer and the woman who loves him. She’s loved him from afar for as long as she can remember so much so that he becomes the inspiration for her debut novel and first foray into the literary world. When he is handed a copy of the book, he comes looking for the author to give her a piece of his mind. Little does Tyler know, that one decision based on anger and frustration will change his life
- What inspires you to write? Mainly dreams – so far all of my published works (and some of those which will be published in the future) all began as a dream then I got expanded on from there.
- Do you work with an outline, or just write? I just write. I’ve tried plotting but I can’t stick to it and end up going off on a tangent.
- Do you have a favorite spot to write? In my writing room. My husband custom built me a writing room in our house, complete with oversized stuffed lounge chair, cushions everywhere and plenty of room to write. I’m a very lucky girl on this one! J
- Do you have a favorite food or drink you must have nearby when writing? Water. Before I go and sit down at my computer I make sure I take a bottle of water with me. My biggest issue is once I get started I forget the rest of the world exists and I don’t come up for food or drinks. Thankfully, my husband makes a great snack delivery boy
- Do you listen to music while you write? Yep! I have a ‘writing’ playlist which is soft mellow music, think Adele. It’s constantly on shuffle.
- What is your favorite thing to do when you're not writing? Sleep! I love to sleep, cook and read. I read way to many books to be normal. And watching sport…at least 4 football games a week (Australian Rules Football) and whatever else is going!
