Great story

Love the way the team watches out for one another. Great story. I like that it’s clean romance and Suspense.

Another great read!

the long-awaited story of Zane & Tessa. Great characters, believable personal struggles, and just the right amount of humor. I look forward to Lynn's next series.

Loved It!

Blackburn did a great job tying together loose ends from earlier novels in the series. I love how she keeps characters and overlaps from some of her other series.

Another Great Story

I have been looking forward to Zane and Tessa’s story since this series began. And it was worth the wait. Lynn is a fantastic writer and Kate does a good job on the narration. She doesn’t use distinct voices, but her inflections and tone provide insight into each character’s personality.

I’ve never read anything from Lynn that I didn’t want to read or hear again. Now I can’t wait to find out what happens in Gossomar Falls!

Under Fire

This is one of my go to authors in Christian suspense, with a little romance. In this series I’ve learned quite a bit about the 3 phases of being a Secret Service agent. I found that quite fascinating. The narrator was outstanding. This is the story of Zane and Tessa, both Secret Service agents. Two mysteries are solved, one started 18 months earlier. This book kept me guessing until the end. As always I love the faith the characters display. Highly recommend. As always, looking forward to more by this author.

Lynn Blackburn never disappoints

Another excellent book! Great suspense series. I can’t wait to see what she writes next.

Whole series absolutely fantastic

I love Lynn’s stories, with all the different characters, with their own individual personalities and struggles, and cleverly written, but what I love the most is they are all born again and have no shame praying to Jesus for His Wisdom and all the other blessings He bestows on them, and there is no swearing and definitely no blasphemy- thank you Lynn, so looking forward to your future books!

Great series!

This was my first series by Lynn Blackburn and I can’t wait to read more. It was fantastic!!!!

Not fullfilling enough.

Slow paced and too much attention to the relationship rather than to a stronger plot line. I’m unclear how the connection was made between the potential rapist and Tessa after a 10 year span, after all who would recognize someone we meet once 10 years earlier?. ( especially if you drugged her and she was drinking or drunk) A lot is hinged on a well timed cufflink presentation and video footage from 10 years before. Not the best but certainly not the worst book to read.
