Melissa Poett studied music composition, first telling stories with instruments before switching her medium to words. When not writing, she can probably be found shivering in a hockey arena while she cheers on her kids in their respective sports. She lives in Canada and The Enemy's Daughter is her debut novel for young adults. @MelissawritesYA
