Petie spent a majority of her career at Walt Disney World—"The Most Magical Place on Earth"—where she loved working in the land of fairy tales by day and crafting her own romantic fairy tales by night, including her series, The Cinderella Romances. She eventually said goodbye to her "day" job to focus on her stories full-time.
These days, Petie spends her time writing new tales for her Cinderella series, her new paranormal-romantic-suspense series, The Watchers, sequels to her Regency time-travel series, Lords in Time, and more contemporary romance standalones, along with her two previous releases—Any Fin For Love and Ambush in the Everglades.

Welcome, dark romance lovers! I'm Gabriella Blackrose, and I write steamy mafia romances that will keep you hooked late into the night. My stories revolve around dangerous men who rule their criminal empires with iron fists—and the bold, fearless women who dare to step into their world.
If morally gray heroes, forbidden attraction, and "she shouldn't want this but it feels so right" tension are your guilty pleasures, you've come to the right place.
Fair warning: these stories might ruin you for nice fictional boyfriends forever. But let's be honest—that's half the fun, right? 😂
When I'm not crafting these spicy tales, I'm connecting with readers on social media or dreaming up my next morally gray hero.
