Author Bio:

Tammy Barley's roots run deep and wide across the United States. With such ancestors as James Butler "Wild Bill" Hickok, Ralph Waldo Emerson, and Henry David Thoreau, she essentially inherited her literary vocation and her trilogy's setting: the Wild West. An avid equestrian, Tammy has ridden horseback over western mountains, and has a special place in her heart for the Sierra Nevadas.

Love’s Rescue, book one of The Sierra Chronicles, went into its second printing only five weeks after its release. The book has won second place in the Golden Rose Contest’s inspirational category, reached #11 on ChristianBooks.com’s historical fiction bestseller list, and has received dozens of five-starred reviews.

Books two and three, Hope's Promise and Faith's Reward, continue the adventure and romance begun in Love's Rescue.

Tammy writes to enable readers “to live the adventure!” She also works as a writing coach, editor, ghostwriter, and biographer.
