This story ends at 50% in... just beware. I somehow missed the summary that said the entire other book was included here too.
Even more disturbing, however, is how SHALLOW this story is. I have hard time with instalove suspense romance.
Maddie the school teacher learns that her FBI agent husband has been killed and she's hauled into questioning.... grieving and in shock she then learns that he's not all he seemed to be -- hidden bank accounts, arms dealers and she herself might be in danger after house blows up and she needs to go into witness protection immediately. She meets Michael, a US Marshal -- and although she's JUST learned her husband is killed and possibly involved in some shady stuff -- she still gets tingles in the you know where when she meets him.
And that's where this story went south for me. There's very little dialogue so it's hard to understand this attraction or why he's willing to break protocol in order to sleep with her, while they're on the run and going into witness protection and while he's injured. WHAT??
SPOILER ALERT: there's a proposal only 4 days after they meet.

I received this for my honest review. It has been a great story, Maddie has relocated with her FBI husband Eric hoping that her marriage is just at a stale mate, she gets a phone call to go to hospital Eric has been shot but no one is telling her anything. This plot is brilliant it takes you on her emotional roller coaster journey after finding out her husband and her life isn't what she thought it was. Then you meet Michael who is the US Marshal assigned to protect her and get her into witness protection, but things don't run smoothly for them and you also get to catch up on Jax and Angie from Serving the Soldier. This is definitely a great read as well as Helen Grey's other books are worth looking up.

If you like one sided POV's then this author is for you. I personally prefer multiple POV's, it makes reading more interesting. This book wasn't horrible, it just wasn't for me. The story itself was what kept me reading. Otherwise I would have given up by chapter 5. And yes reading the added (Serving the Soldier) bonus book(s) prior to this helped. The same with that book(s) there was only the POV of the female character & all her inner thoughts, UGH.
