Melissa Keir

Melissa Keir has always wanted to be an author when she wasn’t hoping for a career as a race car driver. Her love of books was instilled by her mother and grandparents who were avid readers. She’d often sneak books away from them so that she could fantasize about those strong alpha males and plucky heroines. In middle school and high school, Melissa used to write sappy love poems and shared them with her friends and still has those poems today! In college her writing changed to sarcastic musings on life as well as poems with a modern twist on fairy tales and won awards for her writing. You can find many of these musings along with her latest releases on her website and blog.

As a writer, Melissa likes to keep current on topics of interest in the world of writing. She’s a member of the Romance Writers of America and EPIC and other writing organizations. She is always interested in improving her writing through classes and seminars. Her current books include her short story “Forever Love” published in the Valentine Anthology, “Love, Again”, released on Feb. 14th as well as “Second Time’s the Charm” which was released April 3rd and Protecting His Wolfe, to be released on June 3rd - published through Rebel Ink Press this year. She also has a sequel to “Forever Love” called “Beach Desires” which tells the tale of another of the Wilder sisters and is set to be released this summer from Secret Cravings Publishing.

Melissa doesn’t believe in down time. She’s always keeping busy. Melissa is a wife and mother, an elementary school teacher, a book reviewer, an editor for a publishing company as well as an author. Her home blends two families and is a lot like the Brady Bunch, without Alice- a large grocery bill, tons of dirty dishes and a mound of laundry. She loves to write stories that feature happy endings and is often seen plotting her next story.

Currently living in the suburbs of Ann Arbor, Michigan with my darling husband, way-to-grown-up children and spoiled dogs, I enjoy getting away through a book to escape the harsh winters or summer road construction. I am always on the lookout for a new great author or keeper book and can't wait to share some of my own stories (obsessions) with you!
