After a tragic accident, Araya Noelle is left with a constant reminder
that nothing is forever.
She is forced to give up her chance to be the youngest
dancer accepted into Julliard & taking over their high society school by a
graceful storm of determination, is no longer an option. Instead of dwelling
over her loss, she accepts the new future she’s been dealt. In a world as black
as hers, there's no room for bitterness, no time for regret. Sheltered from the
outside world, Araya has become suffocated by a life she has no control over.

Like a firecracker, showering her with colorful
sparks of freedom, Ryland quickly sweeps Araya away from her grey existence.
For the first time since the accident, living in darkness is no longer something
Araya wants to do willingly. Unleashed by the shadows of her reminder, being
with Ryland, Araya touches light. Together they will learn what it’s like to
feel alive for the first time.
At the edge of darkness, a ray of light, will
dare them both to HOPE.
DARE them to LOVE
DARE them to LIVE

Edge of Darkness Excerpts
Excerpt 1
“I’m afraid I’m going to have
this hanging on my conscious all day now.” he teased.
“That only seems fair.”
“Yes it does, but I have a
better suggestion.” his voice slid over my skin like silk.
“Better for whom?”
“Go out with me.”
His proposal stunned me for a
second and then I found my voice.
“So better for you?”
“I like to think of it as a
mutual enjoyment.”
“I fail to see how.”
He shifted, and his breath
hit my face in warm puffs. “Go out with me and I’ll show you.”
Excerpt 2
“I’ve never met anyone like
you before Araya. The way you view life and love; you’re not angry with
anything that’s happened to you.”
I turned my head toward him,
and a smile tilted the corner of my lips. “Yeah, I’m kind of amazing that way.”
I teased.
He rolled over, bracing his
arms on either side of my head, and we stared at each other upside down. His
thumbs swept across my cheeks and his fingers caressed the sides of my neck up
to my jaw. Tilting my neck back, he kissed my chin, and the dip below my bottom
lip. He brushed his lips back and forth over mine, but the touch was so light,
I couldn’t even be completely sure it had happened.
“Yes, you are.” He whispered.
Excerpt 3
His fingers wrapped around
the back of my neck, pulling me hard against his body. I knew what he was
attempting to do, but his plan was backfiring. My body sighed at the contact,
and every curve molded against him; desperate to feel all of him.
“If I feel you beneath me, I
won’t be able to stop Araya. I want you too damn much! I want you, all of you.
I want to be buried so deep inside of you, you won’t know where I end and you
begin.” His breath showered my lips with warmth.
“I won’t want you to stop
Ryland. I need you, all of you, now and forever.”
“And the rest?”
His eyes move over my face,
flushing my skin with the intensity of his gaze. The rhythm of my heart
increased, because I know what he wants me to say.
“Say it.” He growls against
my lips.

Bio:
Melissa started reading in high
school when she found her mom's romance book collection and has been hooked on
books every since. She became a complete book-a-holic, starting her own
collection and improving her reading skills. Most of the time she could finish
a book walking around the store, while her mom shopped.
She wrote her first short story in high school for a competition in her writing class. It was a child's book called 'Arnold' - it was about an ant who believed he could do anything. Oh by the way, she won!
She has written many stories since then, but this will be her first YA paranormal/fantasy and the first book she will have published.
She lived in Mesa, Arizona with her husband of six years, and her 3 beautiful daughters. They are her biggest fans and they inspire her everyday. She enjoys spending time with her family, weekend dates with her mom & taking vacations. Hawaii anyone?
