Amanda Shelley writes romantic stories you can escape into. Some are steamy, others are sweet but all have strong characters with a little bit of sass.

When not writing, Amanda enjoys time with her family, playing chauffeur, chef and being an enthusiastic fan for her children. Keeping up with them keeps her alert and grounded in reality. She enjoys long car rides, chai lattes and popping her SUV into four-wheel drive for adventures anywhere.

Amanda loves hearing from readers. Be sure sign up for her newsletter and follow her on social media. Join her reader’s group Amanda’s Army of Readers to stay up to date on her latest information.

Quotes by Amanda Shelley (?)

“you regret the chances you didn’t take, rather than the ones you tried and they didn’t turn out the way you’d expect. Don’t be afraid to dream big, take that risk and follow your heart. Even if things don’t turn out the way you’d expect—you’ve gotta ask yourself, what if it turns out even better?”
― Amanda Shelley, Zander
