Melissa Baila

Melissa Baila co-wrote Summer of the BFFs and the sequel, Return of the BFFs, with her daughter, Arden Baila. After balancing a full-time career as a marketing and sales manager, Melissa left the corporate world to enjoy more time with her family. She found a creative outlet in food photography and blogging on her Instagram page @eatplayandshare where she shares colorful, healthy recipes. Melisa is also working on a few more children’s books which she hopes to share soon.
