Melody Grace Hicks writes spicy science fantasy romance, winning Independent Press and IndieReader Discovery Awards in romantasy (2025) and paranormal fantasy (2026). She’d apologize for the increase in your lingerie replacement budget, but really, we both know it’s those dangerous, wickedly sexy men and feisty women that bring you back for more, right? 

Born and raised on Canada’s West Coast, Melody has travelled the world and brings this diversity into her fiction. By day, she’s an internationally renowned scientist and professor, but at night, she dons her Melody Grace Hicks pen name to blend mythology, high-stakes encounters, and emotional upheaval in tales of soulmates, hidden origins, found family, magical powers, and love across modern and fantasy realms.
