Melissa Tagg is a former reporter and nonprofit grant writer who turned to fiction in 2013 with Made to Last, the first book in her Where Love Begins series. Her novels are published in the Christian romance market and are set in small towns where characters work through questions of faith, family, and belonging alongside their love stories. She grew up in a small Iowa town and has said that her own Midwestern roots show up in the fictional communities she creates.

Tagg’s bibliography includes several connected series. The Walker Family books follow a group of siblings in a small town, while the Maple Valley series explores a similar setup with new characters. Her Enchanted Christmas novellas offer lighter, holiday-focused stories, and the Muir Harbor series adds elements of suspense to her usual romance framework. She has also written standalone titles, including One Royal Christmas (2020). Note that database listings for the Walker Family Mysteries series combine Tagg’s Walker Family romance books with J.A. Jance’s unrelated Walker Family mystery novels; these are separate series that happen to share a family name.
