Amanda grew up as the daughter of Natalie and Trevor Hunter, but in reality, it was her crazy aunt, Janet Green, who actually gave birth to her. On the day that Natalie and Trevor were to be married, Janet threw her sister down a well, disguised herself as Nat and, without the groom's knowledge, stood in for the bride. The wedding night resulted in conception.
When the real Natalie was rescued, Janet was sent to prison, but escaped and kidnapped her sister. A pregnant Janet went into labor, and Natalie delivered the baby. Janet was captured and locked up again, and Natalie later died after she and Trevor took Amanda in to raise.
Amanda was kept in the dark about her parentage, but when Janet had surgery to reconstruct her looks, and returned to Pine Valley, the truth was eventually revealed. Despite Janet's mental deficiency, Amanda grew close to the woman who bore her, and eventually moved with her to Colorado to reunite with Trevor who had been cleared of false murder charges.
When Amanda returned, she enrolled in high school and reconnected with old friends. Some of her mother's old habits rubbed off, and Amanda was caught red-handed, trying to steal money from the Chandler safe. JR promised not to report the attempted theft if Amanda would help him break up Jamie Martin and Babe Carey. She lied to them, saying that JR had drugged her in an attempt to bed her, and Jamie insisted she move in with him and Babe. How convenient, being close to the very couple she needed to destroy. The whole plan backfired, and Amanda ended up being ousted and ignored by all three.
Amanda got a job a New Beginnings, working with Erica Cane and assistant, Josh, and subsequently started having blackouts. During lucid moments, she learned that residents of Pine Valley were being attacked and injured by an unknown assailant, and feared she might be the culprit. She soon discovered that it was her crazed mother, who had returned with a vendetta against the town. When a deadly bomb exploded during a Gala, killing, Ethan Cambias, among others, Amanda became sullen and withdrawn, unable to deal with the guilt wrought by her mother's actions.
Brooke English took Amanda in and helped her deal with her emotions. Before long, a stronger Amanda emerged, and she went to work at ConFusion, working with Jonathan Lavery, and helping to console him after his marriage with Lily ended. Now she's comforting him through the senseless death of his beloved sister, Erin.
All was calm for Amanda until Adam Chandler sprung Janet from jail and gave her baby Jenny. Amanda tried to believe the best in her mother but Adam used Janet's illness against Amanda and made her help him. Amanda finally figured everything out and saved Jenny. Then, she blackmailed Adam for $5 million to remain silent about his involvement in the kidnapping. Around this time, Amanda and JR began having an affair. One night, she made a sex tape - to get back at JR - and when the tape was the only thing that would clear his name in Zach's disappearance, she hid it. She eventually came clean; both JR and Babe were very angry.
Eventually Babe and Amanda became friends again. When Jake Martin returned to town, Amanda set her sights on him and began an affair. She also decided to use her own money to back Babe's product idea (Bella). Amanda lost all of her money in when it was found out that Bella was tainted; then, in the tornadoes, Babe was killed. Amanda floundered. She overheard JR say it was her fault that Babe was dead. Crushed, Amanda became easy prey for David Hayward.
They had a one night stand and then David convinced her to work with him against the Chandlers. He promised her a huge sum of money to con JR and Adam; Amanda went along with the plan.
Amanda was pregnant with David's baby and he had threatened to steal the child when it was born. With the help of Jake Martin she devised a plan to have the baby in the Bahamas and give it up for adoption. Unbeknownst to her, Jake planned to give the baby to Liza. Currently, Amanda and Jake are married, and Liza has received the baby - but Amanda is starting to ask questions!

In another part of the hospital, David and Angie hold a press conference, where David announces he's stepping down as Chief of Staff! He says the position will be turned over to Angie, so he can spend more time at home. Jake and Amanda listen in. Angie speaks to the press next, saying she hopes to follow in the steps of Joe Martin. David walks over to see Trevor, and tells Jake and Amanda that he thought it would be nice to free up time with another baby on the way. Jake wryly says he might have waited until she was at least a few months along! David leaves, and Jake asks Angie why Dave really stepped down? Jesse appears and says he wants to know too. Angie says she made a deal with the devil - something Jake and Jesse both know something about! Jesse and Angie step aside and he asks if she threatened to bust David for the pills?! Angie admits it, and tells Jesse just to offer her congratulations.
Jake and Amanda confer in a waiting area of the hospital. Amanda says maybe they can use whatever Angie has against David to make him give up custody of Trevor - then she wouldn't have to get pregnant! Jake is very doubtful. Amanda expresses frustration at the idea of continuing to live with David all these months. Jake says she has the option not to do it, but otherwise, it will all be over in nine months! Amanda gets called in to see the doctor, and Jake tells Trevor the good news is he's getting a sibling, but the bad news is he won't have a face like this - he indicates his own face. He tells the child he doesn't want him to live at David's forever - he loves him too much!
In the doctor's exam room, Amanda learns there is no reason she can't conceive. The doctor explains that they will take a sperm sample from the potential father, but warns that it doesn't always 'take' on the first try - this can be a very long process!
David has called Liza to Wildwind. He is complaining that Amanda is violating her contract - she's out with Jake doing who knows what! Liza tries to tell him to relax, and accuses him of not really wanting a baby - just to drive a wedge between Jake and Amanda. Jake walks in and declares that will never happen. Amanda follows, and Jake mocks David's need for control over everything. Amanda says she still plans to go through with the artificial insemination - she'll be at the clinic tomorrow, but David says that depends - on whether or not they had sex tonight! Jake hisses that there was no sex - not tonight. Amanda confirms it.
At Wildwind, David gets a call to go to the hospital - he tells Jake, Amanda, and Liza that Adam Chandler's been brought in - he hopes it's serious! After he leaves, Liza informs Amanda and Jake that she thinks they're absolutely nuts! They try to explain their reasons for going through with this plan. Liza takes a call from Zach - he needs her to get him out of jail. Liza leaves. Jake points out to Amanda that they're alone, and asks coyly what she'd like to do? She smiles that they could make love - right there. Jake says David is probably outside with binoculars. Amanda says, "Let him watch." She then explains that they won't even touch - they'll imagine they're doing it. Jake notes it sounds like torture - she says it's a test of endurance! As they talk seductively to one another, Jake imagines making love to her, then asks, "Was it as good for you, as it was for me?"
