A couple of years ago I was introduced - and introduced to you - a new to me author, Linda Burson. Today Linda returns with another of her "The Marcy Series" books, Rage. Please welcome her back!
One dark, chilly evening after a terrible, emotional day, Marcy finds herself in the middle of a robbery and a gun to her head. After her stressful day, she snaps. Pushed over the edge, she finds herself attacking the gunman.
The same night after this attempted robbery, Marcy meets Liam with whom she feels an inexplicable connection. After talking to Marcy, because she still having the raw edge of the evening with her, Liam convinces her to join him on his quest to find his family’s murderers.
As they delve into the dark world of revenge, Marcy’s life begins to fall apart. Before she realizes it, she falls in love with this mysterious stranger. They become close and gradually allow light and love to envelop them.
Excerpt:
When we arrive at the commuter lot where my car is parked, I remain seated looking at him. My thoughts return to the moment I realized I was in love with him. Was it always there somewhere in the depths of my soul, or was it at the moment when I saw the real person? My heart skips a beat every time I look in his direction and my emotions take over.
“You must think I cry an awful lot,” I impart as the tears come streaming down my face again.
“No, baby. I know you’re in pain right now. I wish I knew how to make things easier for you—for both of us.” Then he adds,
“Oh that my head were waters
And my eyes a fountain of tears
That I might weep day and night.”
I look at him with my tear-filled eyes. “That’s beautiful.”
“Jeremiah, Chapter 9, Verse 1,” he replies.
“You’re a special man, Evan Liam Brooks. I don’t understand why all this happened, but I have to believe there’s a reason. I have to trust in my faith that everything will be fine and will work out as it’s supposed to.”
Rage is available at Amazon and Class Act Books.
Linda is an author from Connecticut.
After years of writing and editing for others, raising a
family, and over twenty years of running her own businesses, Linda decided to
tackle her first fiction novel entitled Rage, which began as a single
book. Eventually, the novel became a trilogy, and finally a much longer series.
All the books are a part of The Marcy Series, a romantic suspense
series. There are currently six novels in the series.
In 2016, Linda was named one of the Top Ten Authors of that
year by Preditors & Editors Readers Poll. Her novel The Agreement, (Book 4 of
the Marcy series), was chosen as one
of the Top Ten Thriller novels of the year also. In 2017, her novel Caught in a Lie (Book 7 in the Marcy
series) placed second in Best Cover Artwork from Preditors & Editors
Readers Poll. Her romantic suspense novel The
Colors of My Life, also was a Top Ten Finisher in the Thriller Division
that year.

Hi Jenna. I always try for intriguing. Thank you for saying that.
I hope you decide to give it a shot. If not the series, maybe one of the stand-alone novels.
