About this author

Optimism seeps from every pore of my body. I truly believe that what's supposed to happen... will! In that regard, I don't know how to give up; it's not part of my biological make up.

I'm a passionate (and some would say, overly enthusiastic) person. I learn by doing (and have been burned more times that I'd like to admit), but I will always throw my entire self into whatever I do - fail or succeed.

I think this is evident when I write, leaving nothing behind and spilling it all out on the pages. I give it all to my readers - love it or hate it.

The path I'm on is very often my own, veering off the beaten path at the sight of something more interesting or captivating, getting caught in the vines and thorns in order to experience the beauty a...more


I'm slowly coming out of my post-writing coma. I even made my bed this morning, which hasn't happened in about a month!

I've answered most of my emails ~ if I haven't responded to you yet, I will, I promise.

And I am in the process of updating my web page which includes sharing two deleted scenes from BARELY BREATHING.

Now that most of you have read BARELY BREATHING (if you haven't, don't worry,... read more »

"I knew how much Evan loved me. And I knew I didn't deserve it. But I also knew he was the only one I loved. The only one I would ever love."Rebecca Donovan
Rebecca added a quote

"My point is... he loves you. I mean it's obvious to everyone how much he cares for you, but I was hoping he didn't really love you, not like that―not like I saw when he held you that night. Like your pain was his and he would do anything in the world for you, to protect you... All I have to say is that he's the most amazing person I've ever met, and I'd give anything for someone to love me like that, so you'd better deserve him, Emma. ~ Analise"Rebecca Donovan

“I love that picture, he admitted softly. I think it's because I love the girl in that picture.”
Rebecca Donovan, Reason to Breathe

“We were engaged in a very intricate dance of touching without touching, knowing without saying, and feeling without expressing. We were friends walking along a ledge, a very thin ledge - and I was too caught up in my heightened awareness of his existence to realize how close the ledge was to crumbling beneath my feet.”
Rebecca Donovan, Reason to Breathe

“And just because you didn’t admit it, you were stupid for each other from almost day one. So even though you’ve been dating for a couple of weeks, you’ve been each other’s person for a lot longer. - Sara”
Rebecca Donovan, Reason to Breathe

When I last checked in, there were a few touch ups needed and then I was going to see it for final approval. I'm anxious as well!


Alyssa When is the cover for Barely Breathing going to be released? I'm SO excited for such a little thing! But until the actual book comes out, that'll have to suffice!


Jordyn I'm dying to know when the sequel to Reason to Breathe comes out :) You are an amazing author!

Rebecca Finally posted a profile pic... I've been waiting to get a head shot done, and still haven't, so I sorted through my personal stash and have released my face! I am usually the one taking the pictures, so I didn't have much to choose from. I will update it (eventually) with a current professional shot. In the meantime, here I am!
