Thanks to all my loyal readers for your continued support.<BR> <BR> At the moment, I am hard at work on the next book, which will be the last in the Ravenscar trilogy. <I>Being Elizabeth</I> is the title I've chosen. I hope to have some details to share with you in short order. After that, I plan to answer the #1 question of most readers: "Will Jonathan Ainsley survive his accident and again torment the Harte family?" Yes, a new Harte book is in the works!<BR> <BR> My new novel <A HREF="heir.htm">The Heir</A> was recently published by St. Martin's Press. This is the second book in my new family saga that began with <A HREF="ravenscardynasty.htm">The Ravenscar Dynasty</A>. The hardcover edition is now available wherever books are sold. To see the characters of <A HREF="heir.htm">The Heir</A> come to life, we have set-up a very special online video feature called <A HREF="http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0312354622/qid=1029175879/sr=1-26/theofficialbarba" TARGET="_blank">Book Theater</A> featuring three scenes from my new novel. <A HREF="heir.htm">Click here</A> to view the trailer.<BR> <BR> The paperback edition of <A HREF="ravenscardynasty.htm">The Ravenscar Dynasty</A> was recently published in the USA and Canada by St. Martin's Press. Look for it in stores everywhere.<BR> <BR> Special thanks to all 900+ readers who recently came to greet me at two very special events in south Florida: The Martin County Blake Library "Booked For Lunch" gala, which took place on March 11th, and the Brandies University Women's Alumni Book & Author luncheon on March 12th in Boca Raton. It was a pleasure meeting you all and I look forward to seeing you all again in the future. <BR> <BR> <TABLE WIDTH=155 ALIGN=RIGHT><TR><TD ALIGN=CENTER> <A HREF="http://www.amazon.co.uk/Heirs-Ravenscar-Barbara-Taylor-Bradford/dp/0007197632/ref=sr_1_1/203-7538204-1614348?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1177947166&sr=8-1" TARGET="_blank"><img SRC="images/books/heirsofravenscar.jpg" ALT="Heirs Of Ravenscar" height=231 width=150 HSPACE=8 BORDER=1></A><BR> <A HREF="http://www.amazon.co.uk/Ravenscar-Dynasty-Barbara-Taylor-Bradford/dp/0007197624/ref=pd_bowtega_1/026-8707364-3437232?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1177990131&sr=1-1" TARGET="_blank"><IMG SRC="images/books/ravenscardynsastyUKpaper.jpg" HEIGHT=243 WIDTH=150 ALT="The Ravenscar Dynasty" BORDER=1 HSPACE=8 VSPACE=6></A></TD></TR></TABLE> <IMG SRC="images/flag_uk.gif" ALT="" HEIGHT=33 WIDTH=64 VSPACE=3><BR> <B>In the UK and Australia...</B><BR> I have a brand new website with content exclusive to your territories.
