If you love stories about personal transformation, complicated love, bold choices, and a little adventure, you’re in the right place.

 

I’m Barbara Gene Cardin, and I write contemporary fiction about what happens when women take risks, chase change, and step into unfamiliar worlds.​

 

The Poker Player Metamorphosis trilogy weaves together emotional journeys, vivid settings, and the high-stakes world of poker in a character-driven story. Each novel can stand on its own, but the journey is richest when read in order. ​
