Life buried me under, but I’m clawing my way back out. More on that later.
Speaking of late, sort of, I wanted to do this last week, but see above. I’m proud to announce my aunt, Lynne Scott is now an author. Her debut book on Amazon is called, “Protecting Parker”.
Physically wounded and emotionally haunted by a harrowing overseas deployment for the Air Force, First Sergeant Parker Cotton returns home to face even more trouble. Her estranged husband, attorney Alex Hamlin, has filed for divorce. To make matters worse, while she was overseas, Alex has gone from being remote and uncaring to paranoid and dangerous. And Parker is now the target of all his rage. When Alex attacks her, only the intervention of Security Forces Master Sergeant Gray Townsend prevents Alex from doing serious damage. Fighting his own demons from the deployment, Gray feels he failed to protect Parker in the field, and he is determined to make sure he doesn’t fail her again. Leaving the past behind will not be easy for either Parker or Gray as they face Alex’s instability and anger and the lingering trauma of the deployment.
I read the first draft of this and made some suggestions, but she did all of the work. I’m slightly biased because she is family, but if you’re into heart-pounding, true-to-life military stories, then this is the book for you! It’s hard to classify what genre this is, but there’s definitely romance, heart-pounding drama and a peek into military life as only someone who served her country for twenty-years could tell.
The next is a dear, dear friend, Sunny, aka Lyn Cash, aka Bobbie Cole.
Cold case detective Charlie Vargas is searching for a killer—but what she really needs to know is what happened to her lover, who vanished several months ago. When the phone rings and she hears Seth’s voice, she’s skeptical. He tells her his name is Mason Alridge, and the only thing he remembers after his accident is the number he called…hers.
Mason looks nothing like her former lover, but there’s something about his mannerisms, if not his face, that draws Charlie in. As they begin to piece together what few clues and skimpy details they have, Charlie and the man she believes is Seth slowly discover a mutual passion. With the Feds following at a distance and someone trying to kill them, will they live long enough to find out his true identity?

I loved this book and everything about it and she’d better write Julio’s story. I also love this cover and think it totally does the book justice. This one, had me crying at the end and cheering this couple on. Then again, I’m biased and there are theories that somehow my kidney’s are close to my eyeballs. Wouldn’t surprise me one bit.
So, check out two new releases by two of my favorite people, you won’t be sorry! Happy Reading!
