Under Fire by Lynn H. Blackburn brings action and excitement on every page. If you’ve read the first two books in the Defend and Protect series, you know Special Agents Tessa Reed and Zane Thacker well. These two have danced around a relationship for two books! Under Fire is finally their story.

Tessa and Zane are tasked with protecting the president on a trip to Raleigh, NC. But someone targets Tessa, and Zane steps in to protect her. But the two struggle to overcome the obstacles to their relationship.

I love this story! It has all the feels mixed with life-and-death action and suspense. Because this is book three, I feel like I know these characters. The story is fast paced, but emotions run deep. You could probably read this as a stand-alone, but the entire series is fantastic and it may make more sense to start with Unknown Threat. This is one of my favorite series and don’t forget the novella (Deadly Objective in the Targeted collection).

Malicious Intent by Lynn H Blackburn is a fantastic story for romantic suspense fans. Gil Dixon is a Secret Service Agent who has a case that involves with his childhood sweetheart, Ivy Collins. He hasn’t seen her in years, but when he shows up at her house, he walks straight into danger. Ivy is in trouble, and Gil pulls out all of the stops to protect her.

The novel has plenty of suspense and action. No spoilers, so let’s just say the ending had me on the edge of my seat! Everywhere Ivy and Gil turn, the threats never stop. But much of the story centers on the rekindled flames between Ivy and Gil. She walked away from him years ago, but now they are thrown together in the midst of a challenge to survive. Of course, it’s hard to fight old feelings.

A lot of characters from the first book in the Defend and Protect series (Unknown Threat) are in Malicious Intent (remember Luke and Faith?) But also some favorites from the Dive Team Investigations series make a guest appearance in this story (who doesn’t love Sabrina?)

While there was a bit more romance than I like in a story, the danger and suspense create a nice balance. Fast-paced and edgy, this is one story you won’t want to put down.

For fans of intense suspense and FBI investigations

Unknown Threat kicks off what promises to be a great series! Full of action and great characters, this story kept me hooked from start to finish. Special Agent Luke Powell, with the US Secret Service, is attacked while jogging with his partner. Several more agents are also attacked, and it becomes clear that someone is targeting the US Secret Services. FBI Agent Faith Malone is put in charge of the case. She must find out who is behind the attacks before anyone else gets hurts.

I love the chemistry between Luke and Faith. They work for different agencies but need to depend on each other to stay alive. Of course, they fight the mounting attraction between them. The other characters add a lot of depth to the story, which I hope means other US Secret Service agents will show up as leads in future stories.

The main thing I love about Unknown Threat is the non-stop action. Lots of life-or-death scenarios kept me flipping pages. I can’t wait for more books in this series.

Overall Rating:
5 stars (I loved it, couldn’t put it down)

Suspense Rating:
5 stars (Non-stop edge-of-your-seat suspense from start to finish)

For Fans of Romantic Suspense, Action and Memorable Characters

One Final Breath is third in the series, so you may want to check out the prior two first to make sure you know all of the characters. This story focuses on Anissa and Gabe, both members of the dive team investigators. When Anissa and Gabe are pulled into a murder investigation, Anissa’s life is on the line when she becomes a target.

The whole series brings suspense and action, while giving readers a swoon-worthy love story in the process. Gabe and Anissa both have a past that makes them gun-shy in the relationship department, but it’s been clear through three novels that they like each other. The tension builds as Gabe and Anissa both have to run for their lives while solving a murder and a 13 year old cold case.

Check out the entire series if you love suspense with some romance on the side. Tons of action to keep suspense fans hooked, while romance fans will enjoy Gabe and Anissa as they explore their feelings.
