Meet Amanda French (Your New Favorite Heroine)
Amanda French is the kind of character you like instantly. She’s tailored, smart, fearless, and has the right amount of class and sass to make you laugh. But it isn’t always fun or funny. She navigates the chaotic trading floors of Wall Street in starched shirts and high heels and takes no guff or bull. She trades for entities like big cities and foundations. That’s where she met Banker Petty, at a state capital. He and she have not spoken for thirty years. He still owns the bank his father built. She, however, is widowed, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker relocated from Connecticut to a small agency in South Texas on the border.
With a surprise marriage proposal from her ex, Amanda never loses her sharp wit or determination.
Why you’ll love her? She’s real. She’s flawed. And she’s lovely.
The Drama (Oh, the Drama!)
From high-stakes trading to political campaigns, Amanda French is packed with drama on every level. And it’s not just about numbers and power—it’s personal. Amanda’s journey is filled with tough decisions and frozen moments. We all know personalities like Banker and we endure. Sometimes we sacrifice heart and soul to get along. Sometimes they show you up front who they are. Sometimes they don’t.
The best part? You think you know what’s coming, Ms McNabb throws a curveball that I promise you, you did not see coming.A Proposal You Won’t Forget (Seriously, It’s Wild!)
