Meet the Author


Lyn Horner lives in Fort Worth, Texas, “where the west begins,” with her husband Ken and three very spoiled cats. Both animal lovers, they also feed and shelter a gaggle of community cats who come and go.

Originally from Minneapolis, Minnesota, Lyn attended the the Minneapolis College of Art and Design. After graduating, she worked as a fashion illustrator and art instructor. Then her husband’s job took them to Chicagoland. At that point, she gave up her art career and stayed home to raise their two young children. Soon growing bored, she took up writing, which she had always enjoyed. She came to love researching and writing passionate love stories.

Lyn is a cross-genre author. She writes different sub-genres of romance. Her works include her award-winning western historical series, Texas Devlins. She also has a pre-apocalyptic series called Romancing the Guardians and a time travel series, Legendary Rendezvous. She loves to inject paranormal twists in her stories that often feature characters with psychic gifts. No doubt because she long ago experienced precognitive dreams herself.

Lyn is part Scotch Irish. This explains why Ireland, its rich history, and wealth of myth and legends often play a part in her stories. She is especially proud of her Irish historical romance Rebel Mine. Set during the great 1798 Irish rebellion against British rule, it required many, many hours of research. Not that Lyn minded! It has been highly recommended by the Historical Fiction Company.

      Thanks, Mary. That’s what I was going for. I’m still working on the Sample My Books page, trying to figure out how to add some color and design elements without paying for the Custom Design upgrade. WordPress charges for a lot of things I can do for free on Blogspot. Rather annoying!

      Thank you, Alexa! I’m so happy you enjoy this site. Sorry I’m so slow to reply. I’m working on book 3 in the Texas Druids series, as well as guest blogging all over the place. There aren’t enough hours in a day, but I love it! Much better than being bored.

    Lyn – I’m hoping to make my blog a little more user-friendly when it comes to getting right to my books. If you have time, would you be able to do a review on my last book, A Trip to the Water’s Edge. I would definitely appreciate your words. Thanks so much.

      Hi Izzy, I’m really behind on replies. My apologies! I’m using the Twenty Ten theme. It’s free from WordPress. The header is my own design, as well as all other design elements. I’m a former professional artist, and I enjoy playing around with the website — when I have time. Writing, blogging and other promotional work take up most of my days.

      Thanks for visiting1 I hope you will come back often.
