Rose Dabbraccio
Rose Dabbraccio is an independent author and creator of Red Phoenix Rising, writing about the beautifully messy reality of being human—healing, growth, self-awareness, accountability, faith, relationships, loss, and the patterns that shape who we become. Her debut book, Rebuilding From Within, combines raw personal storytelling with reflection, humor, and hard-earned perspective. Rather than offering a formula for healing or telling readers how to live, Rose invites them to become curious about their own stories, question what they believe, recognize the patterns they carry, and decide for themselves what they want to build next. Her work is rooted in a simple belief: our past can explain pieces of who we are without being allowed to define all of who we become. Through her writing and Red Phoenix Rising, Rose hopes to remind readers that growth isn't about becoming perfect. It's about becoming aware, getting honest, taking accountability for what belongs to us, releasing what doesn't, and continuing to rise. Once you see it, you can't unsee it.

Salem Hurley
I’m a late-in-life author, but I’ve been writing for more than 40 years before finally deciding to self-publish. I’m a mood writer, so I bounce between dark romance, mysteries, and thrillers. At their core, though, they’re all romantic suspense. The genre changes. The spice level changes, but strong FMCs, consent, and HEAs do not.
