Blackburn's Defend and Protect series is off with a bang in Unknown Threat. This heart-racing romantic suspense is one for the keeper shelf! Don your tactical vests and get ready to engage a compelling story that will forbid you from abandoning its pages. Do. Not. Miss. This. One!

Unknown Threat is a fantastic read! An action-packed opening and sharply drawn characters drew me right in and held me captive. Blackburn has an exceptional gift for weaving twisting plots with characters that walk right off the page. I absolutely adore Faith, the bright and stalwart FBI special agent. I love the attention to detail regarding Secret Service operations. The swoon-worthy romance between Faith and Luke is the perfect slow burn. Unknown Threat is an exciting start to a thrilling new romantic-suspense series!Elizabeth GoddardAward-winning author of the Uncommon Justice series
In Unknown Threat, Lynn Blackburn has created a page-turning novel with all the elements I've come to love in her books. The hero and heroine are unique and compelling, while surrounded by a rich cast that adds depth to the story. The suspense thread is intense and pulses with energy and pressure. And the romance? It's perfection, with tension to keep me rooting for the characters. It's a perfect read for those who love engaging stories that are threaded with hope.Cara PutmanAward-wining author of Flight Risk and Imperfect Justice
Lynn Blackburn has skyrocketed to the top of my favorite romantic suspense authors list! In Too Deep was much anticipated and it did not disappoint! I literally devoured this book in one sitting! Filled with suspense, action, and danger, this book kept me anxiously wondering what would happen next! I love the balance between suspense and romance! And this gang of characters, the dive team, is everything! BringingUpBooks

Jan. 6th, 2011 Review – The Five Love Languages
I’m guest blogging today over at The Write Conversation . Please visit me there! As a side note, I took the assessment at the back of the book to determine what my love language is. Turns out I’m even weirder than originally anticipated. Most people have 1. Some people have 2. In true over-achieving form . . .… [ read more ]
Dec. 24th, 2010 My Christmas Prayer
I have a confession. Sometimes, I read a book so fast the first time through, that as soon as I’m done, I need to re-read it. Why? Because I have the patience of a gnat? Possibly. Mainly because I am so engrossed in the story, so engaged by the characters, so entranced by the plot… [ read more ]
Dec. 13th, 2010 The Best Story Ever
My son is two and he loves to help me around the house. But the reality is that when James helps—whether it’s with the dishes or the laundry or the vacuuming—it takes me at least twice as long and often creates more of a mess than we started with. So, why do I do it?… [ read more ]
Dec. 8th, 2010 Writing Will Mess with your Dreams
I’ve had some of the most vivid and disturbing dreams of my life in the past few months. And I know what the problem is. I take a shower before I go to bed. Did I lose you? Maybe I should explain. I get some of my best ideas in the shower. I’m trying to… [ read more ]
Dec. 5th, 2010 Book Review: The Master’s Wall
I love historical fiction. I particularly love historicals set during and shortly after the time of Christ, when the church was young and the oppression of the Roman empire intense. The Master’s Wall by Sandi Rog takes a unique approach to the genre. The main characters are children as the book opens, and we experience the tragedies that… [ read more ]
Dec. 2nd, 2010 An Interview with My Internal Editor
As you may know, my internal editor and I got quite chummy a few months ago as I edited every single word of my first manuscript. However, during NaNo . . . well, I had to tell her to hush. Quite a bit. I was feeling guilty, so I tried to have a little chat… [ read more ]
Nov. 28th, 2010 NaNoWriMo 2010 – We have a Winner!
A few of you have asked what it means to be a “winner” – well, for NaNoWriMo , all it means is you finished 50,000 words in 30 days. There’s no judging. No prizes. No limit on the number of winners. But it’s still nice to win! I finished my 50K on Sunday the 28th with two… [ read more ]
Nov. 11th, 2010 Paper, Diets and Other NaNoWriMo Hazards
I have a paper cut. It’s on the tip of my right index finger. Every time I type, pain shoots through my fingertip and hand. I press on because I’m tough. But it made me think of things we should avoid during NaNoWriMo . I’m not talking about the usual stuff writers give up—sleep, TV, video… [ read more ]
Nov. 4th, 2010 Have I Lost My Mind?
Have you lost your mind? These were the exact words my sister uttered when I announced my plans to participate in this year’s NaNoWriMo . She pointed out that I was busy. She pointed out that I don’t have time to do this. She pointed out that my decision making skills might be questionable. And then… [ read more ]
Nov. 1st, 2010 She Can Be Taught . . . Maybe
If you follow this blog regularly, then you know that September was a roller coaster for me. Lots of writing and editing, interspersed with ridiculous amounts of drama. But, I’m learning. Maybe. November is National Novel Writing Month. And the goal of NaNoWriMo is to encourage authors to finally write that novel. The goal? 50,000 words… [ read more ]
