Being her best friend isn’t enough.
Jax Belamy has loved Kylie since he was fifteen, but she won't take him seriously. He's had to settle for being a friend, taking advantage of any opportunity she gives him to get close…even if it means stepping out of his comfort zone.
Will their song end before it begins?

Last Shot at Justice
(The Boys of Syracuse,
Kansas Book 1)
Denver Detective Mitzi Reardon doesn’t know
what she did to anger her boss, but he is
gunning for her. Literally. Now a prostitute is
dead, and she is the prime suspect with the law
hot on her heels. With nowhere to run and no
one to trust, Mitzi’s only hope lies in the
hands of a sexy stranger.
Blue Thomas is new in town. Denver’s
bright lights and big city bustle are 250 miles
and a world away from his family’s cattle ranch
in Kansas, and he is out of his element. He came
to find work and save the ranch from foreclosure,
but on a rainy night a desperate woman finds
him. Back home, he would never let anyone—
especially a woman—face danger alone. Without
fully understanding what he is in for, Blue
pledges his help, whether she wants it or not.
As a trap closes around them, Mitzi must
abandon her usual strategy of careful planning
and situation management, instead relying on
quick thinking and a bold, head-on approach that
may just get her—and Blue—killed. Before the
last bullet flies, Blue will find out just how far he
is willing to go to live up to his old-school ideals
of gallant chivalry.

Kristi doesn't know how she got old enough to say she's been writing for three and a half decades. She has always considered herself a writer, although she has worn a lot of hats in the course of her work history--from cashier at the movies and car wash, all the way to insurance underwriter. After leaving Portland, Oregon for life in a smaller town, she tried on a few more hats before she met her husband, started a trucking company, and ultimately left the office to drive over the road with him. On the road, she rediscovered her love for writing, and knuckled down to complete her first self published novel, a romantic suspense: Knight Before Dawn.
Hosted by:
Lynn Rowan started writing stories as a small child, usually starring her favorite cartoon characters. Most of her work through middle and high school was filled with typical teenage angst and melodrama, and usually mirrored the books she loved to read. But eventually she found her own author’s voice and decided to seriously pursue a writing career.
Historical fiction remains J. Lynn’s “first love”, but she has enjoyed the journey to becoming an author of romance and chick lit. She is a member of Romance Writers of America, the Central New York Romance Writers, and the Historical Novel Society. She is also a teacher who tries to instill a love of learning, reading, and writing in her students.
When she’s not writing, J. Lynn enjoys travelling, gardening poorly but enthusiastically, studying various topics in American history for her own expertise, and channeling Julia Child every time she steps into the kitchen.
A native of Oswego, NY, she now lives in Charlotte, NC, with her own Romantic Hero of a husband and the most adorable baby on the planet.
