Rebecca Ross is an American author renowned for her fantasy novels targeted towards both young adults and adults. She is a #1 New York Times and Sunday Times bestselling author, celebrated for her highly acclaimed duologies, including Letters of Enchantment, Elements of Cadence, and The Queen’s Rising. Additionally, she has penned standalone novels such as Dreams Lie Beneath and Sisters of Sword & Song.
Rebecca grew up in Atlanta, Georgia, nurturing a voracious appetite for reading and a longing to find a portal to Narnia. This passion guided her to the University of Georgia, where she earned a degree in English. Before pursuing writing, Rebecca worked in diverse roles—from a Colorado dude ranch worker to a school librarian and live-time captionist for a college.
By the end of 2014, Rebecca had a life-altering epiphany, envisioning herself as a seventy-year-old who had never pursued writing. Determined to change this, she began writing her first novel, which eventually led to the creation of The Queen’s Rising in 2015.
Rebecca resides in the Appalachian foothills of Northeast Georgia with her husband and their frisbee-loving Australian Shepherd. She is also an avid coffee addict and enjoys vintage typewriters, old postage stamps, and all things hand-lettered. Rebecca finds inspiration for her stories while gardening, where she plants both wildflowers and story ideas.
Her works have been published in thirteen languages, earning international acclaim and starred trade reviews. Rebecca's literary journey is a testament to her dedication and passion for storytelling.
