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. 30th, 2012 Audacious Hope
I hope for so many things. I hope the weather will be perfect for my child’s birthday party. I hope NCIS will never go off the air. I hope the cheesecake I had for dessert will go to fuel my brain instead of finding its way to my hips. I have no reason to believe any… [ read more ]
Jan. 26th, 2012 Thoughtful Thursdays :: When God Weeps~Why Our Sufferings Matter to the Almighty
I’m not a big fan of suffering. I prefer to avoid it. Completely. And who would blame me? We live in a culture that values ease, peace, and prosperity above all else. Our own Declaration of Independence declares that we are endowed by our Creator with the right to the pursuit of happiness. Now I’m a big fan of the Founding Fathers,… [ read more ]

A few weeks ago, our community lost a young man in Afghanistan. He’d been there less than three weeks.

Jan. 16th, 2012 Mindful Mondays :: A Ladder to the Moon
On a cool, clear night several months ago, I sat on the back steps with our three-year-old son. As we stared at the sky, we talked about how big the moon was and how bright the stars were. Well, I talked. He jabbered in that special just-turned-three language that is part English – part who knows what. After… [ read more ]
Jan. 12th, 2012 Thoughtful Thursdays :: Joy Dare 2012
A few months ago I posted a review of One Thousand Gifts by Ann Voskamp . I’ve been counting gifts ever since. I’ve found it’s impossible to be grouchy and grateful at the same time so gift counting is something I wanted to be intentional about in 2012 . In December, I wrote about Joy . Joy in suffering . Joy in the Moment . Our real reason for Joy . So imagine my Joy when I discovered the Joy Dare for 2012 . An opportunity to… [ read more ]
