I'm a huge fan of Nora Roberts. Really, she is my number one for romantic suspense and definitely one of my favorite writers ever. Well, I admit that some of her books are not as good as the others, but still, most of them are great fun. To me, she is the queen of stand-alone romantic suspense, and The Witness is one of the best examples.

What makes stories from Nora Roberts so unique are the characters. They are always interesting, different, and so real. It is impossible not to like them. Her h ...more

It has been a long time since I've read something by Roberts that isn't an In Death book or paranormal. I really enjoyed this story. You can't help but root for Liz/Abigail. And Brooks is amazing. You've got to love a caring cop who makes sure justice is done. The small town is charming except for a few snakes who get what is coming to them.
