This Book Promises to Be a Great Wrap-Up to the Series

Just over a week until Lynn H. Blackburn's Under Fire releases! Find out what kinds of delightful things you'll find inside! via @chautonahavig

Under Fire by Lynn H. Blackburn releases in just over a week, and whooee… does it sound intense! The final book in the Serve and Protect series takes us to an estate where her characters are supposed to be protecting the president, but with some baggage in one agent’s past, can they do it?  I sure hope so! Listen in to learn more (including a sneak peek into her next series!)

This Book Promises to Be a Great Wrap-Up to the Series

After more common assignments in cyber crime etc., Lynn H. Blackburn goes all out in Under Fire with a protection detail for the president. Time for the team to don the dark suits and shades, no?  Well, we’ll see.  All I know is that Lynn said there was a lot of stuff that had to come together in this book.  Lynn’s editor also happened to mention that this was her personal favorite couple.

Looks like a must-read to me.

Oh, and we got a super-fun peek into young Lynn as we discussed our mutual lack of interest in huge amounts of description. Somewhere in that discussion, we learn that in elementary school, Lynn liked to read Tom Clancy and could probably drive a submarine if forced to (Clancy really is highly detailed himself so I totally believe it).

Under Fire is on a Baker Book House preorder deal with 40% off and free shipping!  If you missed the other books in the series, they are still 30% off and if you order them at the same time, you get the free shipping on all!  Just putting that out there!

Under Fire Lynn H. BlackburnUnder Fire by Lynn H. Blackburn

USSS Special Agent Zane Thacker has landed his dream assignment protecting the president of the United States. When the president plans a fundraiser at the exclusive estate of a political supporter in Raleigh, Zane is thrilled to be working again with Special Agent Tessa Reed, his best friend–and the woman he desperately wishes could be more.

Though Tessa almost lost everything, she battled her demons and came out on the other side healthy and healed. But when her role as the liaison between the Raleigh office and the president’s protective detail wrenches her past back into the present, her greatest failure threatens to come to light.

Zane refuses to let Tessa go through this alone. But can he stand by the woman he loves and protect the president from a mounting threat at the same time?

Sparks fly as award-winning romantic suspense writer Lynn H. Blackburn closes out her Defend and Protect series with this explosive tale of secrets kept, lies exposed, and relationships restored.

You can learn more about Lynn on her WEBSITE.

Episode 491: A Chat with Tasha Hackett
byChautona Havig

Looking for a cozy holiday read, Tasha Tackett’s got you covered. Listen in while we talk about her Holidays in Hadley Springs series. Don’t know about you, but Planning for Nickie sounds delightful.

note: links may be affiliate links that provide me with a small commission at no extra expense to you.

EEEP! I had a blast chatting with Tasha about her Hadley Springs series. I’m thinking we need to urge her to go on to do more than just major holidays. What about National Donut Day or Beach Reads Day (that’s a thing, right? If not, maybe she can make it one!)

Planning for Nickie by Tasha Hackett

“Fifty-three weeks is plenty of time to find a wife. One week to plan, fifty-two to execute.”

Career-obsessed Mark is history. From now on, my heart is open and ready for a family. No more fifth wheel. No more working alone through dinner in restaurant booths.

Solo Mark is out. Family man is in. As with every challenge, I’ve divided the task into a step-by-step process. While on holiday in Hadley Springs, Nebraska, I drafted the twelve-month plan. I included a detailed description of what I’m looking for and a spreadsheet for the expected timeline. Project: Find-A-Wife will commence as soon as I return home to Phoenix.

It’s all well and good until I join my cousins on a blizzard walk for a few donuts.

Who knew a chance encounter with a scrubs-wearing, sweet-smiling, schedule-wrecking woman would derail my life so efficiently? To Do: 1. Drink coffee 2. Review the plan 3. Find a wife ***

If you loved the Carol Award-winning novel, Waiting for Gilbert (Holidays in Hadley Springs, Book 1), get ready to fall in love all over again in Hadley Springs, Nebraska.

What makes an office manager go "rogue" and get al What makes an office manager go "rogue" and get all "agent-ified?" Danger to their best agent's girlfriend, that's what. She doens't know what she's doing (the girlfriend knows more!), and she's terrified they're one blink away from certain death, but if sheer force of will can keep Erika alive, well... they've got a fighting chance.
Book 5 of the Agency file is available FREE, chapter by chapter on YouTube AND... after 2/28/25 also available in one full-length video.

Love books inspired by other books. All the Jane Austen ones, the C. S. Lewis ones I mentioned,  and then those in the Very Bookish Thanksgiving collection I shared. So many more. I even have a character obsessed with all things Anne Shirley out of love for Montgomery's books.
