First published in 2011, and story-crafting for more than twenty years, Romance author Rose Anderson shares an insight:

''I have an active imagination and I write everything from children’s stories to historical fiction. As a persnickety leisure reader, I enjoy novels rich in detail that give me just enough to allow my imagination to fully kick into gear. I especially enjoy novels that feel like they were written just for me. It's hard to explain, but if you've ever read one of those, then you know what I mean. As an author, I enjoy creating stories that offer more should the reader care to delve deeper, but each stands alone as captivating read. I love words and choose them as carefully as an artist might choose a color. For an enhanced reading experience, be sure to look up whatever catches your eye. It might have been intentionally placed there to do just that. Most of my stories have a trail of breadcrumbs a reader can follow if they choose.''

'''Dreamscape''' is a haunting, a murder, a mystery, a reader's puzzle, and a love story that transcends time. Written in homage to Agatha Christie, each chapter holds clues to a story running behind the scenes. Finding them isn’t necessary to the reader’s enjoyment. They’re a creative nod to Agatha Christie’s literary genius for she often left clues out in the open.

A Few Things About Rose

I believe in happy ever after and of course I would, I married my own twin flame. Readers will find that joy in the love between my characters. I write from the heart.

A Little About My Style

Of the four, and soon to be six, romance novels out so far, all are uniquely different in theme as well as style. All are classified as erotic romance. There are a lot of levels to erotic. I prefer to craft intimate moments using a full palette of paints. When my lovers come together, they do so in joyous abandon as only people deeply in love would do. My heroes are confident, sensual, and classy. My heroines are you or I at our best.

I love words and choose them as carefully as an artist might choose a color. My active imagination compels me to write everything from children’s stories to historical nonfiction. As a persnickety leisure reader, I especially enjoy novels that feel like they were written just for me. It's hard to explain, but if you've ever read one of those, then you know what I mean. I tend to sneak symbolism and metaphor into my writing. You might say it's a game I play with myself when I write. And I so love when readers email to say they've found something. I’d like people to feel my stories were written just for them, for that’s the truth. These hidden insights are my gift to my readers.
