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

Dec. 18th, 2012 When Others Have the Words
I sent my daughter to school on Monday with the sure knowledge that, should unspeakable evil threaten, the teachers and staff at her school would do everything humanly possible to protect her. And more importantly, that my Abba remains sovereign over all. But that doesn’t mean I’ve got a handle on this. I’m no theologian.… [ read more ]
Dec. 13th, 2012 Bigger Than Our Whole World
As I’ve been mulling over the idea of how big God is and the miracle it is that He became flesh, I’ve also been thinking about how often God does things in ways that are both unexpected and incomprehensible. I’m wondering how often I don’t see God’s hand because what’s happening doesn’t make sense to me. I’m… [ read more ]
Dec. 11th, 2012 Don’t Look Now…But My Halo is Crooked
Don’t look now…but my halo is crooked. I blame it on the hot glue. I had no idea how dangerous it could be to use a hot glue gun—until I totally lost my religion making Jesse Tree ornaments.

Dec. 4th, 2012 Joy in the Moment
I’m a wife, mother, and writer. I’m a daughter, sister, and friend. I’m a reader, knitter, and scrapbooker. I’m a cook, maid, and seamstress. I’m an engineer, manager, and bookkeeper. With all that stuff going on, you’d think I’d be fulfilled. Nope. Not even close. More often than not, I feel anxious. Desperate. Inadequate. … [ read more ]
Nov. 27th, 2012 Don’t Forget to Slow Down
I’m no Scrooge. Far from it. I’m a present shaking, Christmas music listening, holiday baking, 38-year-old wanna-be elf. But even my twinkle light loving self has to admit that a part of me looks at the December calendar with more dread than delight. There’s just so much to do! And so little of me to do… [ read more ]
Nov. 21st, 2012 Busy…Very Busy
You may have noticed that the blog has been a little quiet for the past couple of weeks. I am sorry about that, but I’ve been busy. First, it was the stomach bug that attacked every member of my family. I’ll spare you the gory details. But we recovered. I did laundry for a week. And… [ read more ]
