🏆 Amanda Shittim on Dangerous Shadows, Fearless Heroines, and What’s Coming Next
We’re proud to celebrate Bridgewater & Buchner Publishing Co. author Amanda Shittim, whose romantic thriller Dangerous Shadows recently won the Literary Titan Silver Book Award for storytelling, suspense, and emotional impact.
đź’Ł A Romantic Thriller Born in the Shadows
“I had been toying with the idea of a romantic thriller set against the backdrop of New Orleans for some time…”
Inspired by classic crime shows like Heart to Heart, Amanda crafted a story full of danger, desire, and a female lead who can hold her own.
“She was sexy, independent. He was masculine, alpha, protective. Together, they were unstoppable. That’s what I wanted to recreate.”
đź’Ą Meet Tessa Lane
Private investigator Tessa Lane is no damsel in distress. Framed for a crime she didn’t commit, she dives into a dangerous world of secrets and betrayal — and turns to the only man she may be able to trust: the intense, mysterious Dominic Steele.
“Her bravery,” Amanda says. “She feels the fear and jumps in anyway. I admire that.”
