Blood Link II – The Catalyst

By

Blood Link – where the military and vampires meet.

Staff Sergeant Becky Taylor’s frustration and tension level are building to the breaking point. She’s lost control of her temper and injured a teammate during training, and as a result, she’s unable to focus on her work. Thirty years ago, Colonel Court Andrews transitioned her team from human to vampire after a violent attack that left them bloody and dying. Becky felt a strong emotional and physical connection with Court during her transition and her attraction for him hasn’t lessened, although she tries not to let it show. Court has treated Becky with a cold, professional detachment while avoiding her as much as possible, always keeping her at arm’s length. In the process, he has made her feel as though she doesn’t exist.

But all of that is about to change. Samantha, the unit psychic, is having horrific premonitions that she and the team are struggling to understand as they sort through the evidence of a recent attack that injured Court and four others. He and his extraordinary team have been targeted by Katherine and Milo, two Old World and extremely violent vampires. Everything is thrown into chaos almost overnight when the team discovers the vicious Milo has set his evil sights on Becky. Court will be forced to face his true feelings about Becky when Milo threatens her life.

Blood Link – where the military and vampires meet.

Technical Sergeant Samantha Elliott had always felt alone. But when Sam was assigned to a top secret satellite imagery unit, she found herself part of a tight knit group of military men and women who soon came to be the family she had always craved. In fellow team member Master Sergeant Jay “Cowboy” Evans she found even more, a man who she could spend the rest of her life with. But just as Sam and Cowboy discovered each other, they were ripped apart by a brutal attack that killed almost everyone on the team, leaving Sam alone again to face an empty future.

But everything that Sam has ever known or believed in is about to be called into question, when she is saved from death by Cowboy, the man she thought had died all those years ago. She will need all her strength to deal with the looming danger that threatens the family she has just found again. Sam must come to terms with what she now is and face a reality where vampires and the military share a dark secret.

Customer Reviews

“I was hooked after the first chapter. Ms. Scott’s character development is fabulous, and I found myself drawn to these vampires and cheering for their success. There is plenty of action to keep you turning pages, some hot, steamy vampire sex, and nail-biting suspense.” – J. Wales, 19 Aug 2014

“Blood Link, by L. Scott, is a real surprise when you start reading it. It has a whole new twist on Vampire novels . . . good vampires, bad vampires . . . and vampires in the military! It is a great read…” – D. McNally, 19 Aug 2014

Vapor Point

By

“Another military thriller from Scott (The Embassy Guards, 2013, etc.) featuring a compelling female lead… ” ~ Kirkus Reviews

Vapor Point by Lynne Scott.

After her return from a deployment to Afghanistan, Jenna Robinson’s life is spiraling out of control. Too much booze, too many nightmares, and an emotionally abusive and controlling mother have put her on a collision course with her family and her job. She accepts an offer to step out of her personal tornado and start over as a deputy in a small county in Utah. It’s her chance to climb out of the bottle, make peace with her past, and distance herself from her mother. 

But the county isn’t as quiet as advertised. Jenna finds herself busy working to solve a cold case involving a world-renowned photographer, facing off against a drug boss with a fetish for young girls, and coping with the escalating abuse from her mother. All the while, a terrorist is using bombs filled with deadly nerve agent to hold the country hostage. Amidst the professional and personal turmoil, Jenna finds herself falling hard for her handsome new partner, Morgan North, who’s now squarely in the cross hairs of a drug boss who wants him dead because Morgan won’t back off his investigation. 

Jenna and Morgan must work together if they are to save each other, knowing each moment could be their last.

When Marine Sergeant C.J. MacLean reports for duty at the embassy armory, she finds herself in an unusual position and quickly figures out that the small group of Marines she’s to work with isn’t really assigned to the embassy. Master Gunnery Sergeant Nate Jackson already has his hands full when C.J. arrives. The embassy’s new arrogant and demanding major has discovered the unit’s existence and could blow the team’s cover because he believes that Nate’s special operations team belongs to him.

Then, a group of Pakistani terrorists attacks an embassy dinner, and only C.J. and Nate’s actions save the ambassador and a wealthy American weapons manufacturer. Caught on camera while taking out two terrorists, C.J. becomes the target of the surviving cell members. Now Nate and his team are dodging the major, on the trail of the terrorists, and trying to keep C.J. safe, but there’s just one big problem: C.J.’s a Marine. She keeps running to the guns.

“The Embassy Guards contains more than enough action for the toughest guy to read, but enough feeling and emotion to satisfy a sensitive lady. This author truly has a gift. Read this!” – Jim Lewis, 16 May 2013

“This one grabs you from the very beginning and never lets go! A great blend of military drama, corps d’esprit, weaponry galore, spunky and skilled heroine, macho Marines, bombs, British intelligence, covert schemes, terrorists, an overbearing mother, saucy banter … Mix well and throw in a bit of spicy romance! Scott has served up another satisfying dish.” – Chopin Gal, 16 May 2013

Customer Reviews

“This is a great story, steady action, with some deep personal involvement. I love action-adventure stories, especially those dealing with military/government folks, and this book certainly fills that angle – there’s also another angle where Lynne, as an author, allows you to get deeply involved in each character with awesome personality development and communication…I found myself totally locked into the story, rooting for the heroine and the kidnapped girl… and I couldn’t stop reading until it was finished…” – Jim Lewis, 9 Sep 2012

“Saving Emily grabs you from the start! A little passion, some mystery and a strong female character. I loved it.” – Anonymous, 11 Aug 2014, Barnes & Noble

It’s been five years, but the memories of one violent weekend still represent the best and worst of her life – a time when love and honor faced off against fear, pain, and loss.

When her best friend and brother in arms dies, Brenda is brought back together with the only man she ever truly loved, Brigadier General Alan Jamison. Neither of them had been free to pursue their feelings five years earlier, but now they must decide if they can leave what happened in Korea behind so they can face a future together.
