Melissa N Burnett

I enjoy an 18-year career in the field of sales where I work as a Sales Manager for a legal corporation. I earned a Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration with a Management specialization from Myers University (now Chancellor University), and later earned a Masters degree in Psychology from Capella University. 
 
As a child I wrote stories for my own personal reading and enjoyment. By the time I entered high school I shelved my stories to focus on other interests like singing, modeling and liturgical dancing. 

In 2001, after losing my beloved aunt to cancer I found herself writing again as a way of healing. At that same time I pursued a degree in psychology with hopes of becoming a psychologist and helping others overcome their personal issues. A year later I completed a novel on my late aunt’s life and found the writing process enjoyable. 

During my studies I realized there were a lot of emotionally damaged women still struggling with their childhood issues. This prompted me to write a series of four novels about four adult women falling in love while learning to heal from past traumatic situations. I am optimistic my stories will touch someone’s life and inspire them to choose a positive path to healing.
 
I am a native of Cleveland, Ohio where I reside with my family. I love high-heel shoes, giving hugs, playing “Just Dance” on Wii, taking pictures, attending music concerts and the theatre and going to theme parks. I enjoy traveling, reading, writing, listening and dancing to music, watching movies and spending time with family and close friends.
