About

Brandy Heineman is a book hoarder, cat herder, and Christian author of romantic mysteries. She fuels her day job in marketing and life as a novelist with endless cups of tea. Her perfect Saturday entails either curling up with a book or deep diving in genealogy databases. Brandy was a 2014 finalist in the American Christian Fiction Writers (ACFW) Genesis Contest. Her latest novel, Like Honey for the Bones, is a split-time story with Scandinavian influences. Brandy lives in Metro Atlanta with her husband, Michael. Visit her online at brandyheineman.com.

Brandy Heineman writes Christian romantic mysteries infused with faith and resonant in deep heart places.

She graduated from Wesleyan College with a degree in Business Administration and Communication and has a background in financial services and marketing. Frequent moves in her early life often inspire themes of family, belonging, and connection in her fiction, but she’s been happy to call metro Atlanta home for more than twenty years. She loves springtime in Georgia, trying new recipes, and spending Saturdays with a book and a cozy kitty on her lap.

Brandy’s work has appeared in various publications, and she was a 2014 finalist in the American Christian Fiction Writers (ACFW) Genesis Contest. She has also served as president of the North Georgia chapter of ACFW. Her latest novel, Like Honey for the Bones, is a split-time story with Scandinavian influences.
