"Just do your job--protect the witness without falling for her."
Former city cop Caleb Foster hopes playing by the rules will clear his record so he can get transferred far away from small-town Carpenter, Alabama. But one look into the terrified eyes of a beautiful witness and he'll make it his mission to protect her, no matter what it takes... Alyssa Garner thought testifying against a trio of lethal bank robbers would finally end her months-long nightmare. Now Caleb is the only person she can trust when she and other witnesses become targets. She can't resist him--or the secrets he won't reveal. But someone driven by obsession is ahead of their every move...and won't stop till she's the ultimate prize.. The Protectors of Riker County
Oh this hero and heroine, they are SO adorably hot! After I finished the book I just sat there, looking out the window at the snowflakes dancing in the air and hummed with happiness.
But there is so much more to the characters than just the sizzling chemistry between them. The former city cop Caleb Foster is painted as a troublemaker and a challenging person to like. He has made some serious mistakes during his career and as a sort of a punishment sent to the small town police force. But as the story progress, and Caleb comes more known to all, the kind, gracious, and funny man inside him is revealed. Passionate and stubborn, yes, but a good, solid guy regardless. Alyssa Garner is brave, tough, generous soul. Her willingness to walk towards the trouble when others run away makes her a true heroine. Her heart is bigger than the earth, she is adorably clumsy, sweetly hot on the deputy, and determined to get justice. Those two together heat up the pages, the things Caleb says to her had me swooning and sighing and smiling. Everything is so momentary, the culprits on the run, the explosive attacks towards the witnesses, the deadly intent and obsession of the criminal mastermind, it does not leave much room for romancing and flirting, but like a magnet Alyssa and Caleb are pulled together, with a little help from the rest of the town. With creepy, eerie danger and frenzied suspense, delightful humor, and alluring romance this series have me enamored. I can't wait to read the next installment! ~ Four Spoons with a teaspoon on the side SMALL-TOWN FACE-OFF (Book 1 in the series)
