About Me

Joanna Barker firmly believes that romance makes everything better, which is why she has fallen in love with writing Regency romances. When she’s not typing away on her next book, you’ll find her listening to podcasts, eating her secret stash of chocolate, or adding things to her Amazon cart. She thinks being an author is the second-best job in the world—right after being a mom. She is just a little crazy about her husband and four wild-but-lovable kids.

Joanna is a two-time Whitney Award Winner for Historical Romance (A Game of Hearts, 2023 and A Heart Worth Stealing, 2024) and a five-time finalist. She is a two-time finalist in the Foreward Indies Book Awards, and her novels have received praise from Booklist, Publisher's Weekly, Foreword Reviews, and Library Journal.
