Melissa Arezes is a mother and author who turned her personal surrogacy journey into a story of hope and perseverance. What began as private journaling became a memoir written to offer intended parents the starting point she once wished she had-an honest, compassionate glimpse into the surrogacy journey and the strength it requires. She lives in Canada with her family and finds joy in traveling, especially to Mexico, where she slows down, reconnects, and feels grounded once again. .
