Amy Matayo is an award winning author of The Wedding Game, Love Gone Wild, Sway, In Tune With Love, A Painted Summer, and The End of the World. She graduated with barely passing grades from John Brown University with a degree in Journalism. But don't feel sorry for her--she's super proud of that degree and all the ways she hasn't put it to good use.

She laughs often, cries easily, feels deeply, and loves hard. She lives in Arkansas with her husband and four kids and is working on her next novel.

Quotes by Amy Matayo (?)

“. . . because she knows the secret: that humans need contact to thrive, that a broken heart is only one crack away from a broken spirit, and that both can be mended by smoothing on thin layers of love.”
― Amy Matayo, The Whys Have It

“Things change the moment we set our minds on a certain direction. Determination kicks in. A fierceness we didn’t know we possessed bathes us with strength. Fire ignites in our bellies, daring anyone and anything to burn us down.”
― Amy Matayo, The Waves

“It's the almost that haunts me. Even now.”
