Hi Jack, when I look at the titles the Amy Lynn books seem to be a series. Do you want me to create a series and cross reference them? Is the reading order the same as the publication order or do you prefer a different one?

Jack July Yes, they are a series. Amy Lynn is the foundation book. In this book you will find out who she is, where she comes from and why she is able to do the…moreYes, they are a series. Amy Lynn is the foundation book. In this book you will find out who she is, where she comes from and why she is able to do the things she does. The book spans nine years. In Amy Lynn Golden Angel, she answers the question, "who am I," both personally and professionally. This is a straight up spy thriller that takes up right where Amy Lynn leaves off. However, it spans a period of only nine days. In The Lady of Castle Dunn, we find a woman secure in herself and her job. She is however still haunted by events from her past and continues to overcome while moving forward. The third book is my favorite. So yes, the reading order is the publication order. I love to read but I always had a problem with suspending disbelief. In my books you will know why she does the things she does. You will know why the people she surrounds herself with, do the the things they do. I also use a lot of actual history and meld it with my fictional characters. I'll let you in on something. Most of the first third of Amy Lynn is true. It's about my family. It's why a blue collar welder with no writing experience decided to write a book. You'll see, enjoy.(less)
