Melissa Olthoff is a military science fiction and urban fantasy author who delights in sneaking in romance wherever she can. She is a lifelong geek of all things scifi and fantasy, as well as 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 to writing, but absolutely useful when it comes to supporting her family.

She is published by Chris Kennedy Publishing, and is best known for her Salvage Title Universe novels, Hit World Valkyries, and numerous short stories. She can be found at her website melissaolthoff.net, Facebook, Twitter, and on her Amazon Author Page.
