A hopeless romantic, USA Today bestselling author Mel Ballew has been an avid reader and word weaver since childhood. She crafts romance stories gifted to her in her dreams, inspired by her soul and written from her heart, and she loves to connect with the readers who enjoy them.

When Mel is not writing or spending quality time with her husband and family, you will find her curled up with a mug of hot coffee and a good book. She enjoys the outdoors, sipping a chilled glass of Sangria with her husband on a warm summer's eve, or spending time with wonderful friends.

“I wished for you on every shooting star when I was little. Now, if I gathered all of the stars I wished for you on, none could ever shine brighter than you. You are my shooting star, Ren. You are here with me walking this beach. I may have fucked up, but I swear to you, to God, and every single star in this sky, I will never give you up!”
Stefan”
Mel Ballew, ShameLess

“Good, Star, because you may have felt you were the one needing saving, but it was me all along. You saved me. You taught me to love again. The ones you love may do things that upset you. Hell, they may give you a hundred reasons to give up. Thank you for not giving up on me. I may not be good enough. I know I am not the best for you, but you make me want to be the best I can be. I pray that is good enough. Thank you for loving me enough to hold on.” - Stefan”
Mel Ballew, ShameLess

“Kitten, you are the beat to my deadened heart, the light of my soul-less soul. You are seriously the only one that was ever made just for me. You are my ‘light’ – my everything. You are mine.” - Zander to Sylver”
Mel Ballew, Shattered Into Beautiful

“A soul cannot survive or meet its destiny until it has been shattered.
If blessed, the soul of the surviving will become Shattered Into Beautiful” —Mel Ballew”
Mel Ballew, Shattered Into Beautiful

“Kitten, you are the beat to my deadened heart, the light of my soul-less soul. You are seriously the only one that was ever made just for me. You are my ‘light’ – my everything. You are mine.” - Zander to Sylver”
Mel Ballew, Shattered Into Beautiful

“What did I do? Who did I please to get this lucky?" He pulls his lips from my neck and stares at me with wonder. "Are you for real?”
Lynetta Halat, Every Rose

“Tripp was my best friend, my lover, my confidant, my soul mate. He was the salt to my pepper. He was the peanut butter to my chocolate. He gave me love and hope and joy. Together we created our three beautiful girls and together we looked at the world as ours to conquer. In short, he was my other half; the part that completed me.”
Katie Mac, Searching for Tomorrow

“I wished for you on every shooting star when I was little. Now, if I gathered all of the stars I wished for you on, none could ever shine brighter than you. You are my shooting star, Ren. You are here with me walking this beach. I may have fucked up, but I swear to you, to God, and every single star in this sky, I will never give you up!”
