Amber's Place is an historical fiction that takes place following the American Civil War. Amber is an orphan who survives in New Orleans as a seamstress and prostitute. Her life changes when she meets Antoine Acadia, a boxer with a cloudy past. They become business partners, each with their own goals in mind. Amber's story is a story of redemption in a world where the plight of a single woman was precarious. Their path ultimately leads to Kansas, and a home known as Twin Oaks.
The house is still known as Amber's Place, but its story is hidden in the crumbling walls of a derelict structure. The heirs have never heard any tales of the place or a woman named Amber. They know that the old house is standing in the way of progress and expanding city limits. This is the lost account of a forgotten place. It follows a remarkable journey filled with love, hate, revenge, and redemption for Amber, Antoine, and many others.
