Welcome to Leslie Rager Author's Writing Portfolio
Reunion in the Desert
Tentatively titled, Reunion in the Desert, is completed and ready for the first round of editing. I'm excited to dive into my first romance, and in keeping with the Jayne Stanford series, it's also based in Arizona. This time we travel to the beautiful, small town of Wickenburg, known as the 'Rodeo Capital of the World'.
I love writing series, and I have already begun research for subsequent novels with different characters. Reunion in Rome and Reunion in the Mediterranean will each have completely different characters but follow the same theme - can we find love when we least expect it with someone we once knew?

I never tire of helping new writers get started on their journey to completing their work. It's a promise I made to myself to pay it forward as others did me.

I had a great time presenting Website Tips & Tricks to the women of the Scottsdale Society of Women Writers. I've been a member of this group since 2015 and I can't say enough about the
camaraderie and support writers receive from this group.
