Rosalyn Eves is an English professor at Southern Utah University and a writer of award-winning young adult novels: a historical fantasy trilogy, Blood Rose Rebellion, with Knopf/PRH, a historical novel about the American West (Beyond the Mapped Stars, also with Knopf), and two YA Regency romantic comedies with FSG/Macmillan. She's a three-time Whitney Award winner and was most recently the recipient of a T-Bird Award for Faculty Distinguished Scholarly or Creative Service at SUU, where she also directs the Writing Center. When she's not reading, writing, teaching writing, or sleeping, she likes hanging out with her three kids and dabbling in arts and crafts.
