  • “A wonderfully twisted plot that keeps the reader wanting more.”
    –Publisher’s Weekly (Starred review)
    The Last Tiara, an all-new gorgeous and heartrending novel from New York
    Times bestselling author M.J. Rose is available now!
    From New York Times and Wall Street Journal bestseller M.J. Rose comes a
    provocative and moving story of a young female architect in post-World War II
    Manhattan, who stumbles upon a hidden treasure and begins a journey to
    discovering her mother’s life during the fall of the Romanovs.
    Sophia Moon had always been reticent about her life in Russia and when she dies,
    suspiciously, on a wintry New York evening, Isobelle despairs that her mother’s secrets
    have died with her. But while renovating the apartment they shared, Isobelle discovers
    something among her mother’s effects—a stunning silver tiara, stripped of its jewels.
    Isobelle’s research into the tiara’s provenance draws her closer to her mother’s past—
    including the story of what became of her father back in Russia, a man she has never
    known. The facts elude her until she meets a young jeweler, who wants to help her but
    is conflicted by his loyalty to the Midas Society, a covert international organization
    whose mission is to return lost and stolen antiques, jewels, and artwork to their original
    owners.
    Told in alternating points of view, the stories of the two young women unfurl as each
    struggles to find their way during two separate wars. In 1915, young Sofiya Petrovitch,
    favorite of the royal household and best friend of Grand Duchess Olga Nikolaevna,
    tends to wounded soldiers in a makeshift hospital within the grounds of the Winter

  • Palace in St. Petersburg and finds the love of her life. In 1948 New York, Isobelle Moon
    works to break through the rampant sexism of the age as one of very few women
    working in a male-dominated profession and discovers far more about love and family
    than she ever hoped for.
    In M.J. Rose’s deftly constructed narrative, the secrets of Sofiya’s early life are revealed
    incrementally, even as Isobelle herself works to solve the mystery of the historic
    Romanov tiara (which is based on an actual Romanov artifact that is, to this day, still
    missing)—and how it is that her mother came to possess it. The two strands play off
    each other in finely-tuned counterpoint, building to a series of surprising and deeply
    satisfying revelations.

    About M.J. Rose
    M.J. Rose grew up in New York City mostly in the labyrinthine galleries of the
    Metropolitan Museum, the dark tunnels and lush gardens of Central Park and reading
    her mother’s favorite books before she was allowed. She believes mystery and magic
    are all around us but we are too often too busy to notice… Books that exaggerate
    mystery and magic draw attention to it and remind us to look for it and revel in it.
    Rose is a the Co-President and founding member of International Thriller Writers and
    the founder of the first marketing company for authors: AuthorBuzz. She runs the blog,
    Museum of Mysteries.
    In 1998, her first novel Lip Service was the first e-book and the first self-published novel
    chosen by the LiteraryGuild/Doubleday Book Club as well as the first e-book to go on to
    be published by a mainstream New York publishing house.
    Rose has been profiled in Time magazine, Forbes, The New York Times, Business 2.0,
    Working Woman, Newsweek, and New York Magazine.

I am by no means an influencer! I just love to read romance. I've read and listened to hundreds of books over the last few years, averaging about 3 per week. I share books that I love, books that are free or on sale, anything that I feel is worth sharing. I'm pretty strictly a romance reader, anywhere from clean to not so clean, I enjoy them all. Lover of coffee, pj's all day, staying up late reading & happy endings. Ya know, the average romance reader.
