About the author

Amanda V. Shane

<p>Amanda is a Colorado native and fully admits to being a library dork growing up. To this day, she loves the smell of book paper on an almost fetish level (okay, maybe not, but that gives you a peek into the dark and twisted mind of this author). One of her first book romances came at the age of nine when, in a far back aisle, she found the story of King Arthur and was entranced by the blood purple canvas cover with gold leafing (she likes shiny things.)</p><p>Since then, she&rsquo;s been hooked on stories with magic, mythical beings, daring heroes and, of course, desperate romance. She started writing at a very young age, but somewhere along the line, she left the creation of tales on the page for those on the stage and enjoyed a short career as a professional ballet dancer and an even longer one as a dance instructor and youth company director / choreographer. Nowadays, she is happy to be bringing fantasy and romance together in written form again and has had a wonderful time writing about some of the more obscure characters from the world&rsquo;s most renowned story ballets such as, The Nutcracker and Swan Lake. You can read these timeless romances in her Enchanted Lands novels.</p><p>&nbsp;She writes paranormal and fantasy romance from her home where she lives with her family and a Bassett hound that she routinely has to fight for the &ldquo;soft&rdquo; end of the couch to set up with her laptop. She likes chocolate, wine, coffee and kids, in no particular order ;).</p><p>Visit Amanda on her website at&nbsp;www.amandavshane.weebly.com&nbsp; and join her mailing list for book news, upcoming events and other fun!</p><p>Contact Amanda by email at&nbsp;amandavshane6@gmail.com&nbsp;or find her hanging out on social media.
