Amy Q. Barker

Welcome Readers! My name is Amy Q. Barker and I'm a best-selling author of women's fiction. My love stories are filled with heart, humor, healing, and happiness. I was raised in a small town in Western New York State and now live on a lake in Indiana with my husband. When I'm not working or writing, I enjoy reading, kayaking, hiking, and spending time with my grandchildren.
