The author is the proud mother of two exceptional daughters one an educator with a doctorate from Oxford and another with a doctorate in science from McGill.
She is a professional architect but by education, she is a historian which perhaps explains her love for writing historical fiction.

Rebecca was born to an Italian socialite, writer, and artist and an American archeologist father. She would then grow up in New York and Rome shared by his divorced parents.

She got his undergraduate degree from UC Berkeley and then get a doctoral degree from Columbia University. Afterward, she got a job at the Metropolitan Museum, where she was the assistant curator of the Greco-Roman arts section.

Rebecca Branch currently makes her home in the small town of Hudson in the Catskill Mountains.

How Rebecca Branch came to write romance is a very interesting story. It all started in a 2013 dare while she was in between jobs.

She made her debut when she wrote a story of discovery and romance in the novel “Summer of 71.” It was a work of beauty set in Rome a place where the author lectures on Italian culture, architecture, and Roman history.

She followed that up with several other novels that would just be as good on the commercial and critical front.

Things changed when she nearly lost her husband that was involved in a 2004 road accident. The incident caused him to develop long-term amnesia and he was mad at the world and his wife who cared for him.

Even though she cared for him for twelve years, they ultimately broke up and he went back to the Stares leaving her facing foreclosure.

A few months after separating from her husband she went to the United Nations for a function as a board member. It was here that she met a celebrity swimsuit model who was also having similar nightmares and they connected.

After being married for more than two dozen years, Rebecca Branch fell in love with the young woman. Three months after their first meeting, they moved in together and became lovers.

They have been living together since mid-2017 and could not have been any happier. Rebecca has said that she is having the time of her life as she is renewed.
The partnership between the two unlikely lovers finally resulted in the writing of “The Resurrection of Griffin Ballard,” a short novella. The work chronicles a modern romance between a younger woman and an older man.

She would get a lot of inspiration from her relationship and penned several more bestselling titles.

While her work has sometimes been called erotic romance, she believes she is all about architectural history, self-awareness, art, relationship building, Italian culture, coming of age, reclamation, personal development, and loss of innocence.

Rebecca Branch’s novel “Summer of ‘71” is the story of Molly Moncrieff, a woman that was nearly raped at her Milan photo shoot.

She had escaped the ordeal but had lost all her clothes, her luggage, and money when she landed in Rome. She knows no one in the city except for a long-haired young American she had bumped into late at the night by the fountain.

With nowhere else to go, she accepts his offer of a place she could crash. She believes she will have to pay for sleeping at his place but he does not take advantage.

She has all the luxury of sleeping in clean soothing sheets in the ancient villa that belongs to the young man’s mother who is an Italian Contessa.
Upon waking up, she finds herself set up in a world of culture, antiquity, music, art, and literature with a sweet loving, and innocent man who is eight years younger than she is.

She is desperate for reclamation and salvation and makes use of every sensual talent and physical attribute to capture his affections. But what she does not know is that in his innocence and his intellect, he is capturing her mind and heart.

Set against the ancient city of Rome with its fountains, art, piazzas, monuments, and cafe culture during the 1970s, it is a beautiful romance in which the lives of two people are changed forever.
