Author: Lynda Rees

Love is a mystery to be explored! Enjoy the ride. I write as Lynda Rees, I write what I loved to read–romance with a hint of mystery being screwed up by history, so romantic fiction with a bit of mystery and history. I'm interested in history of the mob-especially its influence in my home state of Kentucky; the wild west; Alaska, horse racing, riding and equestrian breeding. I'm fascinated how history affects current-day and frames our lives. The hero of my life story, my incredible husband Mike, and our family of critters thrive on a Kentucky horse farm. He's a saint, nurturing partner and my best supporter. I am a free spirited adventurer and a fun loving gal, with workaholic tendencies. Whatever crazy adventure I conger up, he is by my side. I have many faces, adept at juggling multiple priorities. I am a driven story teller, a dreamer, whose dreams come true. I've written blessings into my life since I learned to read at my grandpa's side at the age of five. Stories continual thread throughout every aspect of my life. I nurtured two amazing people to become phenomenal adults, my son Michael and daughter Brandy. I am working the same magic spell on my grandchildren, Harley, Hunter and E. J. Harley is co-author of my children's middle-grade books. I dreamed of an incredible man to share my life; two blonde, blue-eyed babies and a horse farm in Kentucky filled with family, fun, animals and laughter. A diverse background brings rare perspective and insight, which plays out in my work. Born in splendor of the Appalachian Mountains, the daughter of a coal miner and part Cherokee Indian, I grew up in Northern Kentucky when the Mob reigned supreme in Newport, Kentucky, and the city prospered as a mecca for gambling, prostitution and sin. My father instilled in me, a strong work ethic and capability to achieve my goals. Writing has brought me extraordinary experiences, opened worldwide doors and taken me to exotic locations I never dreamed to set foot in. Traveling the world, visiting exotic places and enjoying wonderful cultures flavors my words. I'm a member of Romance Writers of American, PRO; Association of Writers and Writing Programs; North Texas Romance Writers of America; Mid-America Romance Writers; Kiss of Death Writers; From The Heart Romance Writers and American Writers and Artists, Inc. Writing romance is my passion. I have been writing published in various magazines, newspapers, author a newsletter, have many adult and children's novels published. In 2020, my plans are to publish several self-help books and even more novels. My work is in eBook, print and audio book. My works are in the process of being translated so in 2020 they will be available in German, Italian, French and Spanish. So many stories swirl in my head at any given time, I drift off to sleep each night, as they brand themselves into my subconscious, eager to find their way onto written pages. I hope you find something that speak so your heart! Time for Romance! Lynda Rees Love is a dangerous mystery. Enjoy the Ride!

Yeah! Operation Second Chance Finaled. Wish me luck!

Some bonds can’t be broken by time and distance.

Navy Seal reunites with cowgirl biker accused of murder.

OPERATION SECOND CHANCE

BY AWARD WINNING AUTHOR, LYNDA REES

Scrawny, nerdy Dex Strong committed his life and exceptional intellect to service as a Navy Seal. Motorcycling, horseback-riding, security guard mother and widow, Zoe Waters is comfortable in her world. Misfit pals, now dynamic adults reunite through tragedy. Friendship morphs into love and puts Zoe in a killer’s cross hairs.

Zoe never fit in with uppity, designer-clad students. The unique, jean-clad farm girl proudly wears scuffed cowboy boots and spends time with her brainy best friend, Dex. Boys admire and are intimidated by her, but she’s unaware. A dorky nerd and a redneck are inseparable.

Dex is destined for greatness. Zoe wants a family and home in Sweetwater. She’s only hold Dex back. She hates hurting him but forces a clean break to prevent ruining his future.

Years later Zoe is suspected of murder, and Dex has transformed into a sexy, confident and accomplished Navy Seal. Sparks are stronger than ever, but their reconciliation incites a killer to target Zoe.

♥ This is an Awesome book

♥ _{2nd chances are my favorite trope and this one had my heart bleeding with the distrust that was developed during her 1st marriage…anger, hurt, murder and mayhem all follow the death of her husband. Can Zoe trust that Gabe (her first love) will not break her heart and can Gabe get to her in time to save her? ❤❤❤ I volunteered an honest opinion for this book. Nancy Kehl, Super Fan}

♥ AMAZING!!! Lynda IS an amazing writer! I have read all of Lynda’s books and love them. I can’t wait for the next one. Once I start reading one of Lynda’s books I CAN’T put it down. Karen Dawn

♥ I live vicariously through books like yours, Janet Evanovich, and Sue Grafton. Thank you for sharing them with all of us. From an avid reader, Thank GOD, Sincerely N. Anderson

A diverse background, travel to exotic locations, and curiosity about how history effects today’s world fuel Lynda’s writing.

It’s worth the time to listen to the whole thing, especially when she gets to the Q&A. Her perspective n editing is the best I’ve heard, and I’ve taken a lot of editing classes.
