Roxanna Rose And Desires

 Hey!
 Today, I'm happy to shine a light on Roxanna Rose, a California native with a deep connection to her Ulster heritage. Fascinated by myths and legends from cultures around the world, she enjoys creating young adult, urban fantasy & paranormal novels steeped in their mysteries. Desires: A Legacy Novel is the first in a series based on Celtic myths & legends. Malevolence: A Legacy Novel will be released later this year along with She Who Watches, an urban fantasy novel based on the Native American legend, and Sacrifices will be released in 2014. Roxanna divides most of her time between her writing and her career as a veterinary technician and wildlife rehabilitator. 
  The cover art for all three books is by fantasy artist Julie Fain and the interior’s Celtic art is by acclaimed artist Jen Delyth.
 
Passion, betrayal, malevolence, and magic conjured from the depths of ancient Irish legends comes to life in this story about Eléan. Created by the ancient Celtic God, Dagda to please his beloved daughter, Brighid and gifted with a spark of her soul; Eléan is given the task of living in the mortal realm while being relentlessly hunted in a deadly desire for Otherworldly vengeance. She must control her legacy and save the immortal soul that lives within her.
 
Liam and James have been friends…brothers…since they were children. Now the Otherworld has been released into the Mortal Realm and it’s coming for Eléan, a woman they both love and would die to protect. Will it destroy them or will they find the strength to fight what’s coming?
 
Forced into the service of the Goddess Morrigan, Greagoir must be the vessel for her uncontrollable lust and killing rage. Eléan is the key to his freedom. All that stands in his way are two mortal warriors gifted by a goddess and a young woman’s desire to survive.

I hope you all enjoyed today's author spotlight! Until next time, happy writing or whatever makes you smile. :)

  5. What a cool concept for a paranormal story! And she's written ALL OF THAT and works as a veterinary technician and a wildlife rehabilitation? I officially have zero excuses ever again :D

  8. Hey Celeste and hi Roxanna,

    Based on that blurb, now that I know what a "blurb" actually is, I'm fascinated and have this incredible urge to go over to the Emerald Isle. What's that in my garden? A rainbow. Wonder where it leads to....

    Wishing Roxanna much success with this endeavour.

    Oh, I used to think a "blurb" had something to do with indigestion. Pardon me! Ah, that feels better :)

    Your starstruck fan among an ever-growing legion of starstruck fans in England,

    Gary
