ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Melody was born and raised in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, where she lives with her husband, and son. She’s a dog lover and losing her two 15yr old girls (dogs) inspired them to adopt a new puppy, in addition to a new cat. After years of begging for a cat, she finally let her son adopt a kitten (even though she’s allergic!) The cat is definitely a “mama’s boy”. She graciously accepts kitty snuggles and head butts even though it will result in an allergic reaction. Buddy the cat is her kitty-baby. A house just isn’t a home without pets. In 2017, they adopted a second kitten, named Fleury Kitty (after the amazing and awesome Hockey Goalie, who currently plays for Vegas).
The whole family are avid Pittsburgh Penguins fans and like going to hockey games when they get the chance. Having met some of the players has fueled her interest in writing about them and creating wonderful stories.
Melody has loved writing since she was small, in school she never met a creative writing assignment that she didn't love. She is lucky enough to have a wonderful husband who encourages her to write. When she was laid off from her job of 14 years, he was supportive about letting her stay home and just be a mom. During that time, she discovered hockey-romances and found a renewed love of reading as well as a passion for writing.
There isn’t a lot of time for other television during hockey season, but when she does watch, her favorite shows are BONES and SUPERNATURAL. Looking through her DVD/Blu-ray collection you’ll find every movie that stars Paul Walker, including every single one of the Fast and the Furious movies.
When she’s not being a teacher to her teenage son (cyber school), being a wife and a mom, or helping out her grandmother, she spends her time reading hockey romances. During the holidays, she really enjoys any romance about Christmas, and Hallmark Christmas movies on tv. When it is the hockey off-season, she catches a good Hallmark wedding movie, enjoys swimming and spending her days out in the sun with her family and a good book.
Basically, if she’s not writing or reading, then she’s doing something that has to do with hockey!
