Amy's Books
I write about family, friends, love, loss, and forgiveness. I love a good second chance at romance. I like to explore the way we are all connected and how our lives affect and enrich each other. I hope you’ll enjoy these stories.

Book 1
A Love for Certain Series
Welcome to Certain, where mountain legends sway minds and secrets rule hearts. The Other Side of Certain is richly grounded in research, taking the reader on a sweeping journey. In the midst of the Great Depression, Mattie and Daniel discover the power of hope and the beauty of second chances.
—Rachel Scott McDaniel, award-winning author of The Mobster’s Daughter
Can one librarian with a saddlebag full of books make people see the difference between fact and fiction? Mattie loves a good story, and this may be her best one yet. Fiction tells the best truths and the best truth of all is love.
Lovely Endorsements!
“As a fan of southern fiction, I had high expectations for The Other Side of Certain and Amy Willoubhy-Burle exceeded them all. The ending will leave readers with a smile on their face and hope in their heart.” Beth Pugh on The Other Side of Certain
“When life gives you lemons, read this book. It’s a delicious glass of humor, heart, and hope.” Sara Gruen on The Lemonade Year.
“Amy Willoughby-Burle has crafted a warm heartfelt story of second chances, exploring how we move forward in grace.” Heather Bell Adams on The Year of Thorns and Honey.
“These stories give a reader the vivid language and compelling narratives that are the trademarks of the best short stories. Out Across the Nowhere is an astonishing debut.” Ron Rash on Out Across the Nowhere
The Lemonade Year and The Year of Thorns and Honey are part of a heartfelt and fun duology.
They can be read in either order, but if I have to suggest, I’d say start with The Lemonade Year first. There’s a fun twist that you’ll enjoy more if you read that one first–wink wink (inside scoop from the author!)

My first novel, The Lemonade Year, actually started as a story in this book. There are other stories here that I have turned into novels as well. One day perhaps they will be on the shelves too.
