Safehouse Under Siege ~ Review

Safehouse Under Siege

Lone Star Defenders #5

By Virginia Vaughan

Four years ago, Emily Matthews' life was changed when she witnessed her fiancé murder before her very eyes. Since then, she has been hidden away from the life she had before. But someone is determined to silence her, and they won't let WITSEC's anonymity stop them.

Four years ago, Wyatt Briggs lost his brother and the woman who brought so much to their lives. When a fellow US Marshal reaches out to let him know Emily's identity has been compromised and that a mole exists within their organization, Wyatt vows to do whatever it takes to keep her safe.

But first he has to find her in a small town called Mercy, Texas, with no resources he can call on to help him get her to safety before it is too late.

After four years of living as someone else, Emily is not ready to just pack up and run. What's to stop the man hunting from chasing her for the rest of her life? She's got friends in Mercy and people she trusts to help keep her safe. But can she convince Wyatt that they need to stand firm in Mercy? Or will they flee in the night, leaving questions in their wake?

Safehouse Under Siege is the fifth book in Virginia Vaughan's Lone Star Defenders series. This a clean romantic suspense from the Love Inspired Suspense collection. You can expect twists, community, found family, clean/wholesome romance, non-graphic violence, second chances, and near escapes. And there may be a HEA or HFN to cap off the book, but you'll have to get your own copy to find out if Wyatt and Emily can escape an enemy who has no fear of the law or justice thanks to his deep pockets and lack of compassion. 

I was provided a complimentary copy of this book with no expectations. All thoughts expressed are my own.

 

Deep in the heart of Texas,

he’s her only chance for survival.

US Marshal Wyatt Briggs will risk his life for his job—but when Emily Matthews’s WITSEC identity is compromised, keeping her safe becomes personal. Once engaged to Wyatt’s deceased brother, Emily is like family, yet now she means even more. Both find themselves targets on a drug kingpin’s revenge list, forced to flee from one compromised safe house to another. With a mole lurking in the Marshals Service, Wyatt and Emily must risk everything to protect each other. Emily’s testimony brought the criminal down once, but now they’ll have to work together to deliver justice again, all while staying one step ahead of deadly threats.

From Love Inspired Suspense: Courage. Danger. Faith.
