4.0 out of 5 stars
exhilarating romantic thriller, October 31, 2004
This review is from: A Protected Witness: Ultimate Agents (Harlequin Intrigue) (Mass Market Paperback)
Allison Barnes allows the visitor, the head of the FBI Division of Unsolved Mysteries into her home to see her spouse of eight years, field agent Joe. However, the visitor kills Joe and shoots Allison leaving her for dead. After healing, she suffers from amnesia and cannot identify who killed her husband. Allison enters the Witness Protection program.
Seventeen months later, Allison, using the name Angela Martin, works at Colorado State University. However, Joe's executioner has penetrated the haze that hid her and is coming. Her only hope to survive resides in her spouse's protégé Mitch Decker. As he tries to keep her safe, they fall in love, but first they must deal with the culprit and then the ghost of Joe, who would applaud a permanent relationship between the two people who meant the most to him when he lived.
This "Ultimate Agents" romantic thriller is an exhilarating tale that takes off from the start when Allison sees her spouse executed and the same person try to kill her, and never slows down until she, with Mitch on her side, and Joe in their hearts, confront the killer. The story line moves at a rapid pace with two solid protagonists although Joe is treated as so ethically perfect that he seems unreal. Still Mallory Kane as expected furbishes a powerful suspense novel that will have readers seeking her previous works (see BULLETPROOF BILLIONAIRE)
