Melissa McClone has a degree in mechanical engineering from Stanford University, but analysing airline engines couldn't compete with her 'happily-ever-afters'. Melissa lives in Lake Oswego, Oregon, with her own real-life hero husband, two daughters, a son, two oh-so-spoiled indoor cats and a no-longer-stray outdoor kitty that decided to call the garage home. Melissa loves to hear from her readers! Contact her via her website: www.melissamcclone.com.
