Thank you so much to J.D. for being part of this
multi-webpage blog blast. If you’ve already heard of me and my books, you can
scroll down to go straight to the contest entry. Otherwise, please let me
introduce myself.
My name is Melissa F.Olson, and I mostly write urban fantasy novels, which are stories about the
intersection of two worlds: the real one that we live in and a world that
involves something supernatural: fairies, vampires, werewolves, mutant killer
hedgehogs, or all of the above. My new novel Boundary Crossed is about a young woman, Lex, trying to protect her
baby niece from bad guys who have discovered that the baby has serious value on
the supernatural black market. Lex is determined to keep her safe, but
unfortunately she dies at the end of the first chapter.
No, seriously. She dies. But then she gets better, because
it turns out that there’s more to Lex than she ever knew. She needs to figure
out why she’s still alive and what the bad guys want with her niece, and she’s
going to need a lot of help to do it.
The book has been
available all month as a Kindle First deal on Amazon, but it comes out in
paperback and audiobook for the first time today. To celebrate this release,
I’m giving away signed books, a $20 Amazon gift card, and some killer swag.
(That’s a metaphor; the swag will not hurt you.)

Thanks for reading!
Bio:
Melissa Olson was born and raised in Chippewa Falls,
Wisconsin, and studied film and literature at the University of Southern
California in Los Angeles. After graduation, and a brief stint bouncing around
the Hollywood studio system, Melissa landed in Madison, WI, where she
eventually acquired a master's degree from UW-Milwaukee, a husband, a mortgage,
a teaching gig, two kids, and two comically oversized dogs, not at all in that
order. She loves Madison, but still dreams of the food in LA. Literally. There
are dreams. Learn more about Melissa, her work, and her dog at
