aka Laurel McKee (Amanda Carmack)

Amanda wrote her first romance at the age of sixteen--a vast historical epic starring all her friends as the characters, written secretly during algebra class (and her parents wondered why math was not her strongest subject...)

She's never since used algebra, but her books have been nominated for many awards, including the RITA Award, the Romantic Times BOOKReviews Reviewers' Choice Award, the Booksellers Best, the National Readers Choice Award, and the Holt Medallion. She lives in Oklahoma with a menagerie of two cats, a Pug, and a very bossy miniature Poodle, along with far too many books.

When not writing or reading, she loves taking dance classes, collecting cheesy travel souvenirs, and watching the Food N

Weekend Links (and staying warm!)


 I hope you all have plenty of great books on your TBR piles for the cold weather weekend!  I am playing to cook some chili in the crockpot and settle in for some writing/research, and watch some more of the excellent "Bookish" on PBS.  In the meantime, here are a few distractions for you...

Book donations for kids in MN

Oscar noms are in!  I thought it was quite a good movie-watching year,

Quotes by Amanda McCabe  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“You will have your duty in the bedchamber. Now, Emily, I warn you it will not be pleasant. It will hurt, and be rather messy. You must lie back and do as your husband tells you, and it will soon be over.”

“Mama!” Emily groaned. “I don‟t really need to know—”

“No, Emily, let me finish. There are ways to make it easier. I used to close my eyes and plan a party.”
Amanda McCabe, The Shy Duchess

“Maybe it was this place, this strange, ramshackle, warm-hearted place, that had given his wife that air of laughing, welcoming life. Because here she bloomed. With him she had faded and he had faded with her. Yet here she was, his Jane again.
His hope. And he had never, ever wanted to hope again.”
Amanda McCabe, The Runaway Countess

“He laughed and it sounded startled and a bit rusty, as if he didn't do that very often.”
Amanda McCabe, Running from Scandal
