Laurel
Glen Series Book 1
by
B.L. Scott
Genre:
Romantic Suspense
A
successful woman wary of charming men. A man full of regret for a
massive error in judgement. Their fiery relationship that almost
wasn’t. A novel of international intrigue, last chances, and
trust.
Lindsey
Kelly loves two things—fast cars and her counter-terrorism
business. She’s a self-made Beltway Bandit who rewards herself for
her successes by racing her “baby,” a Ferrari F430 Spider, at
Laurel Glen. When the car malfunctions during a practice lap, she
meets a new track mechanic, Gavin Blake. Lindsey initially finds his
looks compelling, but his judgmental and know-it-all attitude remind
her of everything life with her ex-husband taught her to avoid.
For
his part, Gavin isn’t interested in rich women who think they own
the world. Or so he tells himself. In his previous life as a
high-powered attorney, someone like Lindsey could have been his, but
now, simplicity is what he craves. He hopes an uncomplicated life as
an auto mechanic with little responsibility will help him avoid
another colossal error in judgment.
The
lives of these two self-avowed loners keep colliding, however, and a
steamy on-again/off-again connection develops. They are eventually
pulled into a vortex of danger when a terrorist organization attempts
a takeover of Lindsey’s company. Working with the CIA, Lindsey
becomes bait to draw out the leader of this radical group. Faced with
personal jeopardy, Gavin and Lindsey discover a love and trust that
is necessary for their very existence.
B.
L. Scott is new to the literary scene. For the last thirty years she
has been involved with a security training facility and weekend road
racing venue located near Washington, DC. The company conducts
counter-terrorist schools Monday through Friday and hosts sportscar
and motorcycle racing on the weekends.
Her
work with both racers and government clients like the CIA, SEALs, and
FBI was exciting, and she hopes to express this excitement in her
series based at a similar facility, fictionally christened Laurel
Glen. Adrenaline is the first of this series.
Though
she misses the exhilaration of facing the challenges of a
multifaceted business, she's delighted to have the time to follow her
passion--writing stories that excite and touch the heart.
She
lives in the Virginia countryside with her aged yellow lab, Abby.
