Review of: Witness Protection, by Barb Han



Hi all!  I’m super excited to post my first book review, for the novel Witness Protection by Barb Han.

Book Blurb (taken from Barb's website, because she says it better than I can!):


How far will U.S. Marshall Nick Campbell go to protect his innocent witness?
US Marshall Nick Campbell’s life is a lie.  But when a devastating explosion nearly kills Sadie Brooks, the one woman who can put away a murder, only the truth will keep her alive.  Revealing his secrets connects Nick to Sadie in ways he never expected…and unleashes an attraction he can’t ignore.

Minute by minute, they race closer to justice but sink deeper into the crosshairs of a deadly criminal ring.  To protect his witness, Nick has to gain her trust.  But once he tastes the temptation of Sadie, he’s torn between breaking every boundary for a life with her…or breaking her heart and letting her go.

Review Rating: ***** (5/5 stars)

Review:  Witness Protection, the first book in the Campbells of Creek Bend series by Barb Han, was fast-paced and exciting.  It’s a captivating story that had me hooked from the beginning.  The chemistry between Sadie and Nick is palpable, and it’s amazing to watch them work to solve the criminal puzzle that put Sadie in danger.  Of course, Nick would rather keep Sadie tucked away somewhere safe, but Sadie is headstrong and won’t sit back while Nick risks his life for hers.

Sadie is a strong and kick-ass female lead that I admired and rooted for, and the love she has for her dog almost brought me to tears.  Nick is a sweet but strong and capable man that I adored; his protectiveness and willingness to do anything to keep Sadie safe was incredibly sexy and endearing at the same time.

I couldn’t put this book down!  I can’t wait to read the next book in the series, Gut Instinct, the story of Luke Campbell (available January 2015)!

If you’re interested in purchasing Witness Protection, you can find it in a few different places:
Amazon (including a Kindle edition)
B&N (including a Nook edition)
