Barbara Cool Lee writes category romantic suspense and single-title romantic fantasy novels. Her completed manuscripts

She holds degrees in Foreign Languages, Political Science and Medieval Studies. Yes, she went to college for a long time. She wrote her thesis on "Cai in Welsh Arthurian Legend," hence her fascination with characters who use pointy swords to save the world.

She used to design Filemaker Pro databases for college departments, and actually writes all her books in completely random order in a compulsively organized database (yes, she knows that's strange; it has something to do with finding order amidst the chaos of her imagination).

Her current obsessions are ancient Mesopotamian history and neurology, which figure into her current project, the Tales of the Ariane series, and her next project, an urban fantasy series called The Immortality Curse.
