Brainy and beautiful high school junior Amanda Hutchins was the envy of her classmates. A popular basketball star and honors student, Amanda scored high on and off the court. But she had a dirty secret. For two years, a psychotic sadist, Sheriff Larry Tyrell, had molested her. Then, one terrifying night, Tyrell murdered her father and a wounded Amanda found herself running for her life. 16 years later, Amanda has made herself strong. Living under a new identity, she’s spent years planning her revenge. When she uncovers incriminating evidence against Senator Larry Tyrell—now a presidential candidate—and knows it’s time to strike. Patriot Burke Cherlenko has little time to recover the dangerous files on Tyrell. But when he meets the auburn-haired beauty who possesses the stolen information, all he wants is her. But not even Burke’s love can keep Amanda from avenging her father’s death. The final bloody showdown sends shockwaves around the world and changes the face of US politics forever.

About the author
Janet Periat
7 books3 followersJanet began her writing career at age twelve with the sci-fi screenplay “The Sounds of Quazon” which consisted of about a paragraph in which two astronauts engaged in such titillating dialogue as: “Did you hear that?” “What was that?”
Janet’s next writing project was at nineteen when she co-wrote a play for a real estate company’s Christmas party. She was paid fifty dollars for her work and the clients were very happy.
Her true passion for writing ignited when she took a playwriting class at UC Santa Cruz in 1988. After achieving her Bachelor’s Degree in Theatre Arts (with an emphasis in acting) in 1989, Janet initiated, developed and taught an after-school drama program at Pescadero High School and wrote in her spare time. After four years, she quit teaching to write full-time.
In 1999, after completing ten novels, Janet started writing a monthly humor column for CoastViews magazine, a job she held until the publication folded in 2013. In 2000, she sold her first reprint to Funny Times and her work continues to appear in the national humor magazine. For several years, Janet wrote an advice column called What Would Janet Do? for CoastViews, and wrote short romantic fiction for a commercial website under a pen name.
For seventeen years, she performed as Master of Ceremonies for The Pescadero Arts and Fun Festival. She lives in Northern California and has been married since the dawn of civilization to her husband, Frank. Her cat, Forrest, is her current writing partner, although most of the cat’s ideas seem to surround the consumption of tuna. In her spare time, Janet gardens and sculpts strange creatures out of polymer clay.
