WRITING THE STORIES I NEED TO READ

AUTHOR · PODCASTER · PERPETUAL READER 

Dark romance. Small towns. Fictional men who have absolutely no business being this compelling. A debut novel coming soon, a dark romance book podcast with my best friend and a blog where I write about all of it... honestly, without the filter.

Fate + Tassels: A Novel Coming Soon

MY DEBUT NOVEL · COMING SOON

FATE + TASSELS

Two people. One blue journal. A town that's been watching them circle each other for weeks.

Charlie Baxter has spent her whole life showing up for everyone else. Linus Wellington has spent his whole life arriving exactly on time... for everything except this. Neither of them believes love is still in the cards. Fate, Serendipity's omniscient data-driven, slightly smug narrator... disagrees.

A deliciously slow burn with missed opportunities, crackling banter, a wee touch of spice, and the kind of tension that makes you want to shake two perfectly good people and say JUST LOOK AT EACH OTHER.

You'll fall in love with Charlie and Linus. You'll fall even harder for the town around them.

Fate knew you would. She had it at 94.7% from the beginning.

It's if Stars Hollow had a Lady Whistledown.

Hey, I'm Amber

EMERGENCY VET TURNED AUTHOR, PODCASTER, PERPETUAL READER

I write things I care about most... and occasionally get paid for it. 

Books with morally gray men, building a strong body in midlife, the chaos and beauty of real life and becoming the woman I was meant to be.

QUICK BACKGROUND

An Emergency/Critical Care Veterinarian turned writer, strategist and woman who apparently runs ultras now + coached by a leading digital entrepreneur for 4 years.

Let’s not name drop, shall we?  That’s just tacky!

Nowadays, I create write... for myself and for clients who need their words to actually sound like them.. between homeschooling, logging miles on trails and lifting heavy, and recording Morally Gray Babes with my book bestie, Jen.

RANDOM FACTOIDS

Sucker for cozy hoodies, romantasy, Highland coos, and any book boyfriend who’s a little unhinged… but only soft for her.

Also: hand me a romance book + a step goal and I’ll walk like I’m being chased by my TBR.

No fluff. No pretending. Just real life, written honestly.

Note

I’ve always loved that quote: “A jack of all trades…” because it gives permission to be obsessed with more than one thing—without apologizing for it. 

This little corner of the internet is built on three things: dark romance, writing stories that matter and being honest about what it actually looks like to build a life you're proud of, love.
