About this author

With both parents avid readers, it's no surprise that Amanda Cabot learned to read at an early age. From there it was only a small step to deciding to become a writer. Of course, deciding and becoming are two different things, as she soon discovered. Fortunately for the world, her first attempts at fiction were not published, but she did meet her goal of selling a novel by her thirtieth birthday. Since then she’s sold more than twenty-five novels under a variety of pseudonyms. When she’s not writing, Amanda enjoys sewing, cooking and – of course – reading.

I've never before used the word 'extraordinary' to describe a book, but that's the only word that applies to The Rose of Winslow Street. Besides being beautifully written, it features characters who are definitely not ordinary and a unique plot. This...more

Suzanne Woods Fisher has outdone herself with this book. I expected a sweet Amish romance, but it's more -- much more. This is a fabulous story of family, faith and forgiveness.
