About Rose...
Rose Prendeville has always been a writer, but first she dreamed of becoming an astronaut. After receiving a scoliosis diagnosis during a physical for Space Camp, she wore a brace for several years before undergoing spinal fusion surgery in her late teens, putting an end to her space cadet dreams. She decided if she couldn’t travel to the stars, she could write about them.
After studying screenwriting and creative writing in Miami, Rose Prendeville settled back in her native Tennessee, where she fell in love with libraries and the romance genre. In 2021 she founded Eridani Press, with a mission to connect to readers through heartwarming, sexy, life-affirming stories with happy endings. Her books have won multiple awards, most recently the 2026 Gold IBPA Book of the Year Award, for Grace on the Rocks.
An avid soccer fan, amateur stargazer, and handicrafter, hydrangeas are her lifeblood, hot baths and hiking are her solace, and baking macarons is her most frustrating hobby. She still lives in Middle Tennessee with her husband and the world’s cutest dog, writing and reading about cinnamon roll heroes, found families, and flawed people doing their best in the world.
