Hello! Welcome to my literary world.
My name is Rosa Moreno Matellanes, and I write historical fiction and thrillers where the past, mystery, and human emotions intertwine.
I have a degree in Geography and History from the University of Seville, and for several years I taught history, art, and culture to American students. That background continues to shape the way I write: I love researching different periods of history and turning them into stories about characters who love, struggle, make mistakes, and face decisions that can change their lives.
My first novel, The Darkness of the South, was born in Triana, the Seville neighborhood where I grew up, and took me back to Spain during the Civil War. Since then, my novels have traveled through different places and periods: Europe during the World Wars, the sugar plantations of Hawaii, contemporary Japan, and now Imperial Rome.
Although my stories are very different from one another, they all share something: characters faced with difficult choices, secrets that eventually come to light, and a past that never stays completely buried.
Today, I divide my life between Spain and the United States. When I’m not writing, I’m probably reading, researching, or traveling in search of those places and small stories that sometimes find their way into a novel.
Thank you for being here and for joining me on this journey. Because, in the end, a story truly comes to life only when someone reads it.
