MELODY IS AN USA Today Bestselling hockey romance author. Born and raised in the Steel City, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Home of the Pittsburgh Penguins, Steelers (and Pirates). We are famous for Mario Lemieux, Sidney Crosby, Pierogis, saying “yinz”, and sandwiches with coleslaw and French fries on them (just to name a few). Melody lives with her husband, son, and fur babies.
They are huge hockey fans and adore their home team, the Pittsburgh Penguins. During the hockey season, their lives revolve around the game schedule.
Melody loves making the game part of the overall story (the whole experience of being at an NHL game, the noise, the food, the sound of the skates on the ice.) So expect the game to be part of her books. She hopes even if you’ve never set foot into a hockey rink, you will feel as if you had while reading her books.
She is a Hallmark movie junkie. Christmas movies and all the cutesy (and sometimes cliché) romance, and she loves to get swept away in it all.
When she’s not watching the Hallmark Channel, she’s binging Chicago PD, or catching up on her soaps, General Hospital and Days of Our Lives.
