Melissa Olthoff writes science fiction and fantasy adventure romance with plenty of banter and heart. She is a lifelong geek and a veteran of the United States Air Force, both of which are incredibly useful when writing. Her degrees in meteorology and accounting are slightly less applicable but absolutely useful when it comes to supporting her family.

Published by Baen Books and Chris Kennedy Publishing, she has written in both shared worlds and her own universes, and through the power of caffeine and friendship, manages to juggle chaos on and off the page. She is best known for her Griffin Corps series and Bronze Legion novels from Baen Books, and can be found somewhere in Tennessee with her exasperated husband, two chaotic kids, and one very energetic German shepherd.
