MELANIE MILBURNE read her first Mills & Boon novel at the age of seventeen, in between studies for her final exams. After completing a master’s degree in education she decided to write a novel, and thus her career as a romance author was born. Melanie is an ambassador for the Australian Childhood Foundation and a keen dog-lover and trainer. She enjoys long walks in the Tasmanian bush. In 2015 Melanie won the HOLT Medallion—a prestigious award honouring outstanding literary talent.

To my dear friend Julie Greenwood.
We have been friends since the seventh grade and I can’t imagine how different life would be if I hadn’t met you.
I have so many fun memories of us horse riding, and sitting in the mulberry tree at my parents’ farm with purple-stained fingers and mouths.
You are one of a kind.
Love always. Xxxx
