Amanda Skenandore is the award-winning author of three historical novels, The Second Life of Mirielle West, The Undertaker’s Assistant, and Between Earth & Sky. She’s also a registered nurse and certified infection preventionist.

When she’s not writing or chasing germs, Amanda spends her time curled up on the couch with a book and cup of tea, or tending to her many houseplants.

She lives in Las Vegas with her husband Steven and their pet turtle Lenore.
