Getting to Grace by Lee Barber

Vick Mickunas talks to Lee Barber about her romance novel, Getting to Grace.

The romance novel genre is enduringly popular. There are probably more romances being read in this country than any other type of fiction. In this interview Lee Barber describes how someone gave her a romance novel and she was initially baffled and uninterested. Then she read it and that was that, she was hooked. She wrote her own romance novel 24 years ago. It took almost a quarter of a century for her book to finally be published. It has gone through a lot of changes. So has she. I loved her book and I thoroughly enjoyed talking to her about Getting to Grace.

The Book Nook on WYSO is presented by the Greene County Public Library with additional support from Washington-Centerville Public LibraryClark County Public LibraryDayton Metro Library, and Wright Memorial Public Library.
