Amanda Stephan

About

Amanda Stephan is just a normal, everyday country girl. She resides near Columbia, TN with her husband and children, three cats, one dog, and multiple roosters that love to roost under their bedroom windows. She loves to laugh and have a good time, and loves to read a good book.
She started writing her own stories when she learned how to hold a pencil. Writing out of love for her family and love for God, she finds writing to be an opportunity to share God's love for others in a fun and entertaining way.
If you were to ask her to share one thing about herself that most people don't know, she'd have so many to choose from that she'd probably hesitate for a moment. Not quite a recluse, she's rather camera shy, doesn't like to be in the spotlight, and absolutely LOVES to have her feet tickled. Yes, it drives her husband crazy. But she would say her most interesting accomplishment is that she laughs like Scooby Doo.

Story Behind The Book

Abusive relationships are all too prevalent. It was Amanda's desire to tell her children if they find themselves in an abusive relationship, they shouldn't stay. Only too often, children tune out their parent's words, so Amanda decided to put this very important truth in fiction form. Because they're worth it.

I started the book last night and finished it this morning! I could not put it down! It gets you sucked in right from the start. I loved the way the author mixed in mystery that had me on the edge of my seat most of the time... ~ Courtney</span><div><span style="color:#333333;font-family:Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:14px;line-height:20px;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="color:#333333;font-family:Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:14px;line-height:20px;">Amanda Stephan has managed to take equal parts faith, intrigue, humor, and love and turn them into a delicious recipe called "The Price of Trust".</span> ~ Aileen<span style="color:#333333;font-family:Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:14px;line-height:20px;"><br /></span></div><br /><div><span style="color:#333333;font-family:Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:14px;line-height:20px;">I love the storyline, it has suspense, romance (who doesn't like romance ?) and most of all it is well written by Amanda.</span> ~ Valli<br /></div>
