Review: Targeted Witness

Targeted Witness book cover on blue background

Targeted Witness by Jacqueline Adam was such a good distraction for me as I read this book in a hospital waiting room. If you're looking for a way to get your mind off waiting, reading about someone running for their life will help!

Book Synopsis

A witness under protection.

A serial killer out for revenge.

After the killer she identified finds her in witness protection, artist Cassie Whitfield must go on the run to avoid becoming the next victim. But there’s nobody she can trust—except her ex-boyfriend, former FBI agent Ryan Matherson, who doesn’t know her real identity. Now telling him the deadly truth is her only option if she wants to stay alive…

Book Thoughts

This book definitely lives up to being suspenseful, with action-packed content paired with a sweet romance. Just when there is a sense of how things will go one way, the book proves that it can go in any other direction. Jacqueline Adam's debut is a thrilling journey that captivates readers as they await the final outcomes for Cassie and Ryan. These characters with their past baggage grapple with their present and their future, and it is rewarding to see how God works in both of their lives as the case unfolds.

If you are looking for a riveting read that will keep you on your toes with an elaborate plot behind the suspense, Targeted Witness is right up that alley. I appreciated that the characters relied on God rather than anything they could do, and that there are pivotal moments where the Bible provides exactly what is needed as Cassie and Ryan try to figure out what's next. The phrase of twists and turns would certainly be an understatement for this book!

Review: Not Exactly Mr. Darcy - The Silver Teapot #1

It's no secret that I'm a huge fan of Carolyn Miller 's contemporary books, so discovering that she was going to have an Austen-themed series out made me want to read these books even more. Not Exactly Mr. Darcy is the first in The Silver Teapot series , promising us many Pride and Prejudice easter eggs through this family of five Bennett sisters (including a mother named Elizabeth) and all things Regency-related. It's the perfect blend of Carolyn's historical and contemporary romances! Many thanks to Barbour Books and NetGalley for providing a complimentary copy of this book for review consideration.
