Summary
Witness Protection Widow by Debra Webb is a romantic suspense that will keep you turning the pages at a break neck speed. It is part of a series but totally stands alone. I didnt realize it was part of a series until after I was half way through it and recognized some characters.
Ali and Jax were college sweethearts for 6 months. When Jax was offered the Marshall’s training it was his dream. Ali felt that she could not go with him. The author created a very realistic dilemma for the 20 somethings to work through.
Present day, Ali is in the witness protection program after marrying into a very bad family. She is the key witness to take down the leader, her father in law. Some of what Ali went through while married into the family was disturbing. It was all in the past but stayed with me after I read the story. Again the author created a reasonable scenario as to why Ali had not left the marriage.
Jax is a very successful US Marshall. Situations occur that have him guarding Ali for the four days leading up to the trial. The action and suspense were top notch. I was holding my breath to see if she was going to make it to the courtroom.
Sexual content - 2.5 one physical scene with very little details.
Violence 3.5 the violence is in the past, but her husband was evil. And there were not graphic details to describe it.
