edit data

Rose Kolo writes dark, high-heat romance where obsession, control, and dangerous loyalty collide. Her stories explore morally gray characters, tangled histories, and the kind of love that refuses to stay buried.

Her books are set in the shadowed world of crime families, where loyalty can be as lethal as betrayal and passion often comes with a cost.

Rose is the author of Once More, the first book in the Once More Duet and part of The Dark Series I.

When she isn’t writing, she’s usually listening to the same song on repeat and finding other innovative ways to drive her husband crazy. 😈

She is currently working on the next book in The Dark Series, With Teeth, releasing May 2026.

“Where are you? The bad guys are closing in. You don’t have time to play around.” I inject my voice with urgency. “I’m in your brain, stalker.” She grins. “I’m all up in your gray matter. I bet you can taste me.”
