About this author

My most recent novel: The Book of Lost Fragrances.

"Compelling... suspenseful tale. Once you catch a whiff, you will be enchanted". - Associated Press

"Rose has entered another realm and written what is bound to be one of this year's best books." -- Seattle Post-Intelligencer

"A time-defying journey filled with passion and danger...A kaleidoscope of memorable characters and exotic locales. Elements of both thriller and paranormal romance dominate, and the insights Rose offers on the methods and science of perfumery throughout history add a fascinating top note." Shelf-Awareness.com

"Enthralling. A supple and elegant thriller. There is simply no more daring writer than MJ Rose, and her blisteringly original [novel] shows why." Providence Journa...more








The latest release in M.J.’s Reincarnationist series,THE BOOK OF LOST FRAGRANCES, is ripe with sensual references to perfume and M.J. has done significant research into the mysteries of scent.

David Lentz Dear MJ,
I just bought your "Book of Lost Fragrances" today on Amazon. I have a business proposal on a few new book launches that I'd like to discuss with you after your book tour -- perhaps over lunch at Ginger Man on Greenwich Avenue or in the City at your convenience. Strictly business. Please share with me the benefit of your perspective. I look forward to reading and reviewing your new book, and hope the tour goes well for you.
Cordially,

Nigia Stephens M.J.,
Thanks for accepting my friendvite! Looking forward to cracking open "The Book of Lost Fragrances." I have three new books I plan to read and yours is one of them.


Wonderkell Hi M.J.,
I just wanted to say that I just finished the first of your books I've ever read, the first of many I will read - The Delilah Complex. I adored this book. Your characters are so well drawn & easy to identify with because they are flawed just like the rest of us. And some of your prose is just so beautiful - lyrical & deep. There are quite a few highlights in my Kindle copy, simply because they were beautifully written & rang true for me. So you've gained yourself another fan! Thanks for bringing us this fantastic series.
All the best, Kellie.


VampireNovelFan Thanks for the friendvite, M.J.!
