ERICA M. GOROS is the author of The Daisy Chain—prequel to The Cole Edwards Saga—a haunting, heart-split novel of women, land, and legacy in the Texas Hill Country. First released in 2011, the Revised & Expanded Edition marks not just a return, but a reckoning. She is the co-founder of Death Do We Party Press, a story-forward publishing collective devoted to work that lingers, language that lands, and loves that last. Her titles—and those from fellow authors under the imprint—blend grit and grace, romance and ruin, all rooted in emotional truth. Raised in Dallas and educated in Austin, Erica earned her degree in Journalism with a concentration in Photojournalism from the University of Texas. She’s written fashion copy for some of the most iconic brands in the industry and co-founded a wellness company rooted in ritual, resilience, and deep nourishment. She lives for her three boys—wild-hearted, sharp-eyed, and the best stories she’s ever helped write. Most days, she balances book launches and bedtime routines with freelance deadlines and dream drafts. Her voice is shaped by family, memory, and the belief that a good story should never leave you the same.
