Hi I’m Amy!

I write southern fiction that ranges from gothic to fall-off-your-chair funny.

Let’s grab the front porch swing, and we’ll chat dogs, sarcasm, the Cubs, and great stories!

The DuMaine Misery

Mallory Guerin has had a tough year. Unceremoniously kicked to the curb from her dream job in Paris, she returns home only to have a car accident take her parents within a few months of being back on American soil.

When a New Orleans lawyer contacts her with the news that she has been named the heir of a woman she has never heard of, she’s perplexed. But as she has nothing else to lose, she hops on a plane and flies south for the weekend.

Mallory has no idea what to expect, but not even in her wildest dreams would she have pictured a four-story Creole townhouse in the heart of the French Quarter.

For Mallory, who grew up traveling all over the country with restless parents, the idea of being a property owner is not a good one. The fact that the townhouse comes with generations worth of belongings? Not a selling point.

As Mallory struggles with the opportunity to create a new life for herself, she has to fight the demons of her past to give herself a fighting chance. New family members - some blood, some chosen - want to help, but Mallory will have to help herself first.
