Lynn H. Blackburn

Author

Lynn H. Blackburn loves writing swoon-worthy Southern stories—from nail-biting romantic suspense to butterfly-inducing contemporary romance—because her childhood dream of becoming a spy crashed into the reality that she'd probably dive behind the nearest potted plant at the first sign of actual danger. The truth is, she was likely more interested in those dashing fictional spies than in the actual spying anyway. It's definitely safer for everyone for her to live vicariously through her characters!

Lynn writes her novels in Scrivener and loves it so much that she teaches other authors how to master the program. When she's not crafting her next page-turner (without an outline, thank you very much), Lynn is a frequent conference speaker and has managed to write all her novels while homeschooling her kids and parenting a child with special needs. This probably explains why she drinks too much coffee, eats too much chocolate, does too little CrossFit, and never leaves home without a book.

Lynn lives in South Carolina with her husband, children, and an overprotective goldendoodle. You can follow along with her real-life plot twists by signing up for her newsletter at LynnHBlackburn.com and connecting with her @LynnHBlackburn on social media.
