Melissa Jean Vallejos writes YA romantasy steeped in dark academia—dangerous magic, ruthless institutions, and secrets sealed beneath beautiful places. Her stories are layered with meaning and symbolism, where high-stakes tension meets aching emotional depth, slow-burn romance, and found family forged in fire. She loves resilient heroines, love that cuts through shadow, and power that always demands a price. Follow Melissa on Amazon for new releases, bonus content, and behind-the-scenes updates.
