BERNADETTE GARDNER has been writing in one form or another for almost three decades, in part to fuel her desire for adventure. Thanks to some wonderful friends, a supportive husband and the fabulous editors at Amber Quill Press and New Concepts Publishing she realized her dream of seeing her work in print for the first time in 2005.

BERNADETTE lives in the NY-NJ Metropolitan area with her husband of fifteen years, two creative children, a slightly neurotic Dalmatian and a sardonic black cat. When not hard at work on a novel or short story, she spends her time reading, quilting and haunting the local craft stores. She hopes to continue bringing steamy sci-fi adventure stories to her fans for decades to come.

Update: May 2008

I've got lots of sexy stories in the works! Be on the lookout for Rogue Heart set in the Rogue Theta universe, coming soon from Ellora's Cave:

A Chi series enhanced human, Onika Ramos can seduce any man, but the fatal flaw in her biological programming is that she falls in love with her targets. When Zed Lantrell, the enigmatic scientist who created her, wants to see her, she chances a reunion, determined to convince him to change her biological programming and free her from her enslavement to chemical lust.

When she finds Zed has been brutally murdered, she feels relief and terror. No one can save her now, least of all Aidan Fynn, the attorney assigned by Central Command to represent her. Given into Fynn’s mercurial care, Onika faces the greatest challenge of her life to not fall hopelessly in love with the former soldier once he learns the only way to gain her trust is to take her to his bed.
