Liana went to the University of Arizona and graduated with a bachelor’s degree in English. She still loves to cheer on her alma mater even though it has been years since she stepped on campus.

She has been published under Amara an imprint of Entangled Publishing and her writings have also been featured in “A Duke to Remember,” the Avon Romance anthology. Liana has always loved the romance and still remembers how she used to sneak Harlequin romances into her bedroom where she would read on the sly.

Following the birth of her second child, her husband dared her to pen her own novel. Pulling all-nighters and slugging wine, she has so far managed to massively improve her craft.

She published “To Love a Scandalous Duke” her debut novel and the first of the “Once Upon a Scandal” series of novels in 2017. She kicked on from there and now has more than half a dozen titles to her name spread across at least three series.

De La Rosa now considers herself a full-time author as writing is all she does in addition to taking care of the family home and her children and husband. Nowadays her day usually starts at 6 when she gets up and starts preparing her kids for school.

Once she has dropped off the kids at school and eaten breakfast, she does some cleaning since she is unable to be creative and imaginative in a messy place. She will then usually stay at her laptop typing away until it is time to pick up her son from school.
In the evening,s she makes dinner for the family and once the kids are in bed at about 8 pm, it is then back to her laptop where she can write for 2-3 hours before turning in. When she is not penning her saucy and witty heroes, she loves to pretend that she is a fashionista and domestic goddess wrangling her rambunctious brood.

Liana is also an active member of the Beau Monde chapter of the Romance Writers of America and is represented by DeFiore and Compabny’s Rebecca Strauss.
