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! Ronie Kendig Bestselling, award-winning author of The Tox Files
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
Leigh’s ability to rescue herself, Ryan’s respect and support, and a terrific cast of law-enforcement and hospital personnel make this vivid start of Blackburn’s Dive Team Investigations series a real page-turner.Booklist
Fans of Dani Pettrey’s “Alaskan Courage” thrillers will enjoy this nail-biter of a series opener, which will also be appreciated by romantic and psychological suspense fans.Library Journal
The author balances the personal relationships and the mystery well. Her descriptions are so vivid and accurate that you can see the scenes playing out before you . . . Lynn is definitely going to be a great new author to follow.More Than A Review

Aug. 30th, 2012 Story :: Our Journey of Heartache and Grace from Eden to Evermore
It’s no secret that I’m a huge fan of Steven James . His Patrick Bowers thrillers are so beautifully written that even though they walk the very edge of what my wimpy self can handle in the blood and gore department, I cannot resist them. Steven James knows how to tell a story. So I was excited to see how he… [ read more ]
Aug. 28th, 2012 Does God Notice?
In the past few weeks, aside from all the usual amazing things He does (like keeping the earth traveling around the sun at precisely the correct angle to support life…you know…the usual), God has taken particular notice of me. I know He always notices. But in the past couple of weeks, He’s been obvious about it.… [ read more ]
Aug. 21st, 2012 First Day Fears
First day of 1st grade Tomorrow is the first day of third grade for my sweet Emma, so I decided to revisit something I wrote two years ago—on the first day of first grade (isn’t there a Veggie Tales song in there?). **For those of you who might not know, Emma was born with Rubinstein-Taybi Syndrome .… [ read more ]
Aug. 18th, 2012 Currents :: August 18
This week’s currents… Books: Have you ever read anything by Jenny B. Jones ? She’s a hoot. Fun YA/chick-lit. I stayed up way too late several times this week reading So Not Happening. (This begs the question…was I staying up late because of the Olympics, or do I just have a bad habit of staying up late?) Writing:… [ read more ]
Aug. 14th, 2012 Where Do You Live?
Where do you live? I don’t mean geographically. I mean day-to-day. Hour-by-hour. Minute-by-minute. I’ve been thinking about this a lot, and I’ve come to this conclusion. I live in that murky place where fear and faith collide. You might not realize this, but I know a few things about fear. I’m not afraid of heights, spiders,… [ read more ]
Aug. 11th, 2012 Currents :: August 11
The currents of my life . . . where wonders and weirdness collide. Books: I read a fun novel, Wish You Were Here by Beth K. Vogt . I’ve started quite a few books this summer that simply haven’t sucked me in. This one did. I mean, when the girl kisses her fiance’s brother five days before the wedding…well, you have to keep… [ read more ]
Aug. 10th, 2012 Lethal Legacy by Irene Hannon
I broke one of my personal reading rules for this book. I never (well, I guess now that would be almost never) read the books from a series out of order. I worry that I might be missing something important that came up in a previous book. I’m re-thinking my rule. Because Lethal Legacy by Irene Hannon was fantastic,… [ read more ]
Aug. 9th, 2012 Raising Financially Confident Kids
I know I said I’d be reviewing books and such every other week, but I had the opportunity to review two great books from Revell—one fiction, one nonfiction—but both reviews needed to be posted during the same week. I decided to go for it. Today, we’ll hit the nonfiction and tomorrow, you’ll get an Extra Edition.… [ read more ]
Aug. 7th, 2012 Want to Get Wet?
I just returned from a wonderful week of vacation in the mountains of North Carolina. We had an amazing time and I’m looking forward to sharing bits of what God showed me in the weeks ahead. But for now, as promised, today is the launch of the new and improved Out of the Boat. I’m keeping the most… [ read more ]
Aug. 2nd, 2012 Review: You Are A Writer by Jeff Goins
I keep expecting Edie to tell me she’s had enough of me, but she keeps letting me invade her corner of the internet on the first Thursday of the month! Today, I’m sharing my thoughts on a great e-book by Jeff Goins – You Are A Writer . I’d love for you to swing on over to The Write Conversation and chime in! And don’t forget,… [ read more ]
