Author: Barbara McMahon

Barbara McMahon writes romance across contemporary love stories, international settings, category publishing, and independently issued series. She began publishing during the 1980s and has written more than one hundred novels, many associated with Harlequin and Silhouette lines. Valentine’s Cowboy Rescue opens her Cowboys of Wildcat Creek sequence and appeared in 2022. The contemporary Western romance introduces the small-town setting developed across later books including Shelly and the Cowboy, Kristi's Cowboy Hero, and Holly's Reluctant Cowboy. Other books by McMahon form the Rocky Point, Bayou Nights, and Ultimate Billionaires series, showing her preference for connected communities in which secondary characters can move into later leading roles. Her stories regularly use work, family obligations, travel, and local loyalties to place a central relationship within a larger social setting. Valentine’s Cowboy Rescue represents the cowboy strand of that wider catalogue, establishing Wildcat Creek as both a romantic setting and the shared framework for the books that follow.
