Background

She was raised in Ridgewood, New Jersey[1] United States and now lives in coastal South Carolina.[2][3] She began writing at nine-years-old, but didn't pursue it seriously until she garnered praise for a school essay against music censorship.[1] After she was discovered through Harlequin's So You Think You Can Write contest, she began writing for their American Romance line.[3][4]

Career

Amanda received "the call" from Harlequin on March 13, 2012[5] after she had submitted her manuscript to them through their So You Think You Can Write[6] competition. Many of her books center around hippotherapy,[7] a form of physical and occupational therapy that utilize the horse's movements to treat numerous conditions.

Each of Renee's books have charted in the Nielsen Bookscan Top 100 Adult Fiction Overall Fiction lists.
