The Lure of the Moon: The Scripter Trilogy (Book 1)

After uncovering and writing in a three-thousand-year-old book, eighteen-year-old Ava Baker escapes through a portal that she believes is nothing more than a vivid dream. Her urge to write isn't solely based on her journey, but also by an alluring man named Collin, whom she meets between the pages. Their mutual, unabiding affection has them bound to each other in ways much deeper than either one can explain. When Collin divulges secrets to Ava and reveals that the book is being hunted by rival secret societies, it sends their relationship and Ava's life into a tailspin. The very thing that brought them together is also what threatens to tear them apart. Are Collin and the revelations only figments of her imagination? Or, is it all a reality and her divine destiny?

The authors, Melinda and Nicole, met in 2005 when the two learned that Nicole’s husband and Melinda were actually long lost cousins. Without knowing it, the cousins had been born and raised not far from each other in upstate New York and had moved to the state of Georgia at approximately the same time. On August 1, 2009, after having just finished reading the Twilight saga and with their level of creativity at an all time high...Melinda and Nicole began sharing ideas about what the ultimate romance novel might be like and by the end of the night, on a piece of purple construction paper, they had created a character list and the basic outline of the plot for this book. What began on that simple piece of purple construction paper became The Lure of The Moon. Melinda Clark is a homemaker, nanny, and writing enthusiast whose avid love of storytelling prompted her to write short stories and poetry at a young age.

She was born and raised just outside of Syracuse, New York and now resides in the Atlanta, Georgia area with her husband, Joe. Nicole Gulla was born and raised in the village of Yorkville just outside of Utica, New York. In 2002 she met the man who is now her husband and not long after she graduated from Whitesboro Senior High School in 2004, together they moved to Georgia.
