For a Limited Time
"Jayne is a compelling protagonist with a rap sheet as long as her leg, but with so much doubt and self-conflict to make her shady actions understandable and sympathetic. It's a heavy but affecting read, made stronger by the novel's multi-layered lead character." Self-Publishing Review
Also available in paperback and audiobook.
Hey! I'm Amanda.
I'm a multi-genre fiction writer and an indie author. I've been self-publishing since 2012 and have published 5 novels, 1 novella, and a few single short stories (which are available for free). Head to the books page for links.
I write in established genres but my stories tend to be a bit quirky--think unique characters who are pleasantly weird and unusual plots that you'd never be able to guess, all with a high dose of suspense. If you're looking for something just a bit out of the ordinary, but with familiar elements, you're in the right place.
