LiteraryScape serves both readers and authors of historical Christian romance and contemporary Christian suspense romance.

✨ Our Vision

LiteraryScape envisions a thriving digital ecosystem where Christian fiction authors and readers unite in purpose and passion. We are building more than an online platform—we are cultivating a trusted community where authentic connections flourish. Our vision includes establishing a comprehensive online bookstore serving as a beacon of integrity, where every purchase contributes to God-honoring initiatives. Through faith, transparency, and shared purpose, LiteraryScape will become the premier destination where Christian fiction thrives and transforms lives.

Welcome to the world of romance! Melissa LaShure writes steamy, adventure-packed, inspirational historical Christian romance novels that feature cowboys taming the Wild West and rescuing damsels in distress. She likes to say she’s packing the heat and riding the line.

Melissa thinks of her books as bridging the gap between typical Christian romance and secular romance. She loves the passion found in secular romances, but as a believer, she is not comfortable with explicit bedroom scenes. So, she writes books that are packed with passion but leave the bedroom door shut, always with the goal of pointing readers to Christ.

Beyond Writing: Melissa currently works in education as a curriculum director and Principal for an amazing school corporation. She also hosts the LiteraryScape and Educational Awareness podcasts. When she’s not working, writing, or podcasting, you can find her hanging with her husband, reading a book, exploring new places, or enjoying great coffee!
