Melissa Poett is a Canadian writer, whose short stories have appeared in Flash Fiction Magazine and THIS Magazine. When she’s not writing, she can probably be found shivering in a hockey arena while she cheers on her kids in their respective sports. The Enemy’s Daughter is her debut novel for young adults. @MelissawritesYA
