I'm M. Rowda — born and raised in Argentina, writing in English because that's the language these particular stories chose to come out in.

I've always been drawn to the kind of love that costs something: morally gray men, women who refuse to be ruined by them, and the quiet, dangerous spaces where obsession and devotion blur together. That's the world of the Marbella series — Puerto Banús glamour, the shadows of Il Veleno, and romance that doesn't apologize for what it wants.

The Marbella Affair was my first step into that world. The Fénix Affair — arriving August 29 — goes further. Both are written, edited, and self-published entirely by me, down to the last comma.

I'm also bringing both books into Spanish, because the stories that shaped me were always told in two languages, and I want my readers to have that same choice.

If you're here, you probably already know what you're looking for. Come find it. 🖤
