Meet Kate Barnes from Once Upon A Moscow Night by Judith McGuinness

Tell us about your heroine --- the female lead in your book.

What's her name?
Kate Barnes.

Why did you pick that name?
It seemed the perfect name for a very modern American woman; crisp and to the point, just like her.

Give us a brief description of how she looks.
Kate is in her twenties, petite but curvy. She has blonde hair that she usually wears in a ponytail, and she has sapphire blue eyes.

Is there anything unusual about her appearance?
Without meaning to be, Kate is innately sexy. Every guy she meets is instantly turned on by her, whether she wants them to be or not.

Who does she love? Why?
The love of her life is Viktor Cherkasov because he is so different from every other man she’s ever known. He’s mature, handsome, cultured, and a fabulous lover.

Does this person love her?
Most definitely, even though he doesn’t tell her until near the end of the story.

Tell us about her family.
Kate is from a single parent home with no siblings. Her father abandoned them before she was born and because of this, her mother taught Kate not to trust men.

Where is she from?
New York City.

Does her hometown affect her behavior, thoughts and attitude?
Being a New Yorker made her savvy in the ways of the world at an early age. Kate knows what she wants and goes after it. She’s also a good judge of character, especially when it comes to men.

What does she want out of life?
Kate wants to enjoy life to the fullest. She sees everything as a grand adventure, an opportunity to experience new things and to meet new people.

What's her biggest secret? (Only share if it isn't a spoiler in the story.)
Even though she’s a modern woman, Kate wants a fairytale romance. She wants to be swept off her feet and carried away by her knight in shiny armor.

Did you write more than one story about her?
No. The story of Kate and Viktor fit very nicely into one book.

How would she describe you?
Kate would say that I like to write reality into my stories. Fantasy romances are fun, but you sometimes need to read a love story that might actually happen to you some day.

Is there anything else about your heroine that we need to know? Feel free to share.
Kate hopes that you enjoy her book.
