When Jana Richards read her first romance novel, she
immediately knew two things: she had to commit the stories running through her
head to paper, and they had to end with a happily ever after. She also knew
she’d found what she was meant to do. Since then she’s never met a romance
genre she didn’t like. She writes contemporary romance, romantic suspense, and
historical romance set in World War Two, in lengths ranging from short story to
full length novel. Just for fun, she throws in generous helpings of humor, and
the occasional dash of the paranormal. Her paranormal romantic suspense “Seeing
Things” was a 2008 EPPIE finalist.
In her life away from writing,
Jana is an accountant/admin assistant, a mother to two grown daughters, and a
wife to her husband Warren. She enjoys golf, yoga, movies, concerts, travel and
reading, not necessarily in that order. She and her husband live in Winnipeg,
Canada. She loves to hear from readers and can be reached through her website

for To Heal a Heart:
Garrett Saunders' world changed two years ago on a
road in Afghanistan. Back home, he feels like a stranger. As he struggles to
find his place in the world, he meets a horse destined for the slaughterhouse
and a woman bent on rescuing the strays of the world, including him.
Blair Greyson moves to Masonville to look after her
ailing grandfather and give her rescue horses a home. Right away she butts
heads with a surly former Marine. Despite a rocky start, they come to an
agreement: Blair will board Garrett's rescue horse and he'll help with repairs
around her farm.
Garrett finds purpose working with Blair—and falls
in love with her. But she's hiding a secret. Can she forgive herself and accept
Garrett's love, or will she let guilt and regret continue to rule her life?
Excerpt for To Heal a Heart:
He pushed himself to his feet, disconcerted by his
unsteadiness. He made a few halting steps toward the gate as Blair ran into the
yard.
“I forgot my sweater,” she said, grabbing the
garment from the back of a chair and slipping it on. “It’s cooler than I
thought. Are you sure you don’t want to watch the fireworks with us?”
“No, I—”
His words were cut off by a loud explosion, and his
only thought was that he had to protect Blair. He grabbed her and threw her to
the ground, covering her body with his. He was under attack. Why was Blair in
Afghanistan? How could he keep her safe?
Through the chaos and noise he heard her muffled
voice beneath him. “Garrett, you’re crushing me.”
He shifted his weight slightly. “Shh. I’m sorry. You
have to stay down and quiet. I can’t let them hurt you.”
She stopped struggling. “Who’s going to hurt me?”
“Can’t you hear the mortar fire? I have to protect
you.”
Her hand rubbed his back in gentle circles. “It’s
all right, Garrett. It’s only fireworks. It can’t hurt us. We’re safe here.”
He lifted his head and looked around. He was in Cole
and Lauren’s back yard in Masonville. There were no bombs, no shelling, no
Taliban. He looked down into Blair’s face, into the pity in her eyes. He rolled
off her, disgusted with himself.
Disgusted and scared. He was losing his mind.
