Although Kay Hooper was born in 1958 in California, she was raised and educated in North Carolina, and currently resides there. Hooper attended Isothermal Community College, quickly changing her focus from business to literature and history. She began writing her first book, the Regency romance Lady Thief, while in school. It was published in 1980. Since then Hooper has published more than sixty novels and several novellas. Hooper also co-owns an independent bookstore with her sister.
Amanda is a wonderful story, full of colorful characters and a quick plot. "Amanda" has returned home after 20 years when she and her mother left when she was a child. She cannot prove that she is the real Amanda, and her relatives are all sceptical. Amanda doesn't really care if they believe her or not. She just wants to know why her mother took her and ran so many years ago. Amanda must deal with an unexpected romantic intrest in her family's lawyer and her old friend, Walker. As she asks questions however horrible things begin to happen. A trainer at the stable is killed, Amanda is poisoned, and her protective dogs go missing, and she can only asume they have been taken. Amanda must find out why her mother took her and ran before it's too late.This was a very good book, that drew me in. The characters are interesting and the plot keeps you guessing. I've read it many times over the years, and if you like suspenseful romances you will too.
when Amanda goes to Glory to learn about her past, she hardly expects attempted murder, heart-stopping memories, and romance to pop up where she least expects it! i loved this book. one of hooper's best!
This book was the first book by Kay Hooper that I read, and it has made me seek out her other books since. _Amanda_ is a griping book that pulls you in from the first page. It is full of romance and mystery, making the book more than a simple bodice-ripper. It gives you a mystery to solve, wonder at what will happen next, and the growth of love along with it all. If you enjoy any kind of romance, suspense, or mystery book I think you will like this book.
It only took me 2 days to read this book, but that's because it's long. I think it was a really good book. It had suspense, drama, and romance all rolled into it. If you enjoy this book, you should read "After Caroline" by Kay Hooper. That one is just as good!!
