She has a fantastic support system and cheering squad, as she sometimes puts it. Melissa has always wanted to write, and when her friend and fellow author, Jaime Russell suggested they co-write together, well the rest is history. Melissa still fan-girls when meeting her favorite authors, and will always believe that authors are her rockstars! Besides family and books, Melissa loves to laugh.
