HIDING THE WITNESS Caught accidentally eavesdropping on plans for a major cargo theft, Lily Doyle's chased by men who want her dead. And she narrowly escapes when Deputy Sheriff Nate Bedford--her former high school classmate--comes to her rescue. The criminals won't stop until they finish their mission, though, so going into hiding with the handsome lawman is her only shot at survival. With a troubled past hanging over his head, Nate has something to prove--to himself and the community. And saving Lily's life could be a step in the right direction. But with a deadly crime ring aiming to silence her for good, will hiding Lily at his friend's secluded ranch be enough to keep them away? No library descriptions found. |

For the first 3/4 of the book, I thought it was so-so. Lily overhears something while working late one night, and even though what she overheard wasn't enough to know anything, the people she overheard come after her. By chance, a childhood-classmate-who's-now-a-deputy-sheriff comes into the gas station mart and ends up rescuing her. And, in the tried-and-true genre theme, they both have reasons why they couldn't be in love with each other and even keep trying to convince themselves of that.
The last 1/4 of the book was more interesting--and just when you think the suspense has ended, there's a twist!
I also kind of got a hint that Crystal Rios and Gaston may have a book in the future--and wondered if Olivia and Elijah had a story before this--I'm guessing possibly since I see this author has another title called "Last Stand Ranch" and that fits in with the little I know about Olivia and Elijah from this book.
