"Kerry Lynne was a history major in college and went into teaching for a few years. Then she wound up in the decorative painting world, where she traveled, taught and published for over 35 years and as luck would have it her hand stopped working. So she went back to what she knew: writing, history and sailing."

Lynne's fictional writings include The Pirate Captain, Chronicles of a Legend, "Nor Silver" (2014 Next Generation Indie Book Finalist Award for Historical Fiction), The Pirate Captain, Nor Gold", Treasured Treasures the next in the series, TBR (2018) and a published short story, LocoThology #3-The Price of Victory (The Pirate Captain). The Pirate Captain, Chronicles of a Legend series is a unique literary genre, "historical pirate fiction", a blend of historical fiction/romance/nautical/paranormal.

The Pirate Captain series is not a romance but there is a "intense" love story between the Captain and a Jacobite widow. It is not a story that ends in smiles and happily ever afters but there are deep emotions shared and sacrifices witnessed. It is not a Treasure Island "wannbe" nor will Blackbeard, Mary Reed or Jack Rackam make an appearance but there are Captain Blackthorne, Cate MacKenzie, Thomas, Hattie, and Breston Creswicke.
