I'm pretty new to the publishing world, though I think I was born with a pen in my hand. I have two releases with Loose Id, one with Lyrical Press and one with Siren Publishing. I'm most familiar with writing stories with a paranormal edge, but I've recently found myself drifting toward contemporary romances or romantic suspenses.
My mother would say I have a massive bad boy complex, and I suppose, in literature, that is very true. Most of my favorite male characters are the definition of the sort of man you shouldn't bring home to dinner. While I have written and very much enjoyed the "nice guy who finishes last" story, I find myself drawn to rough, slightly damaged alphas, and the strong, intelligent women who drive them nutty.
I like quick banter and usually write scenes around dialogue, though I'm trying to branch out and challenge myself. I also love pushing myself toward projects that seem, at first glance, too large to conquer. Thus far, I've mainly published novellas, and while I like the novella format, I'm typically more attracted to large, involved plots. The idea I'm outlining at the moment, for example, is more along the lines of the sort of story I like to tell in terms of complexity and length.
Thank you for visiting my website! There's a lot more to come!

A little about Rosalie...
A lifelong enthusiast of larger than life characters, Rosalie Stanton’s
muse is fueled by alpha males, from badass bikers to scruffy-looking
Nerf herders, and the intelligent, strong, and independent women who
actually do the driving. She loves interweaving the lives of people who
appear to be polar opposites and delving beneath the surface to see how
well one actually complements the other.
Rosalie lives in southwest Missouri with her husband and two
dachshunds, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern. At an early age, she
discovered a talent for creating worlds into which she could escape.
Over the years, her vivid imagination evolved into a love of words and
storytelling. Rosalie graduated from Missouri State University with a
degree in English. When her attention is not employed by writing, she
enjoys spending time with close friends and family.
