About the author

Elizabeth Barone writes romance with a body count—sometimes figuratively, sometimes literally (but always fictionally, for legal reasons). She writes both because life isn’t just dark or light, it’s both.

Before publishing her debut novel, she was a web designer writing code instead of stories. It took a debilitating autoimmune disorder to shove her onto the path she was always meant to be on.

Elizabeth has published over a dozen novels, and has so many ideas for more, she finally has the job security she always dreamed of. She lives in Connecticut with her husband Mike, more coffee mugs than she’ll ever need, and too many characters “talking” to her.

Reviews

[Jessica · Rating 5 out of 5]

Beautifully, well written short story. Elizabeth Barone, the author, teaches us about the differences of siblings and the hard unexpected lessons in life that we must learn. While the main character, Yalda, shows us about the bonds those very different sisters share and that there is beauty in even the saddest moments.

I highly recommend Moon Prayer to anyone.
