About the Book

Safeguarding the Witness

Title: Safeguarding the Witness Series: The Protectors Author: Laurie Winter Publisher: Inspirational The Protectors Collection (Love Inspired Suspense) 
Release Date: April 25, 2023 Genre: Christian Romantic Suspense
A treasure worth killing for… Unless the bodyguard can protect them 

Kayla Swartz’s return to Snowberry, Montana, has been a living nightmare. She found her estranged father murdered, and unless she retrieves some missing jewels, Kayla and her three-year-old sister could be next. With nowhere else to turn, Kayla entrusts their lives to bodyguard Nicholas Galanis. But is hiding at a remote cabin in the mountains their best chance to survive…or the perfect opportunity for an ambush?

My rating: 5 out of 5 stars
My review:

Kayla Swartz watched her father go in and out of jail as a child, so she was worried about her half-sister, Olive, going through the same trauma as she had.  When she received a desperate call from her father, she rushed back to Snowberry, her hometown, only to find him and Olive missing.  She never expected to run into Nicholas, her high school crush, or for him to help keep them safe.  Kayla had always struggled to trust others after her father’s manipulations.  She always shut men out before their relationship could develop into something serious.  Her trust in Nicholas grew as they worked together, but could she trust him enough to let him into her future?

“Success means different things to different people…. Making a name for myself meant I accomplished what I’d set out to do.  If I’m honest, my business has made me a lot of money, but there’s still a hole inside me.”

After losing his chance at becoming a professional football player, Nicholas Galanis felt like he had to prove himself to his father.  After leaving the military, he started a successful security firm in L.A. but never felt complete.  After returning to Snowberry and seeing Kayla again, those things didn’t seem as important anymore.  He wanted to be close to his family and wanted a simple life in Snowberry.

The journey Kayla and Nicholas traveled to have a second chance together was full of hope, learning to trust again, suspense, and full of heartfelt emotions.  I was hooked on the book from the beginning and the twists and turns kept me on the edge of my seat.  It was a great and entertaining clean Christian romance that I highly recommend.

I received an ARC and am voluntarily leaving a review.  All thoughts and opinions are my own.
