Deputy Marshal Garrett McKendrick does not get involved with witnesses he’s tasked to protect. Especially when his boss has a very personal reason for keeping Samantha Hutchinson alive. Can you say off limits? But as Garrett battles to keep Sam safe from the powerful and influential people out to silence her–permanently–he finds she’s strong, feisty, and willing to risk everything to tell the … everything to tell the truth. And totally irresistible.
Losing everything you know and love might just be worth it to meet an amazing man like Garrett. But when Sam learns he has been keeping secrets from her–big ones–she’s convinced his affectionate words were all for the sake of the job. She sends him packing. But can her new protective detail be trusted? The last team betrayed her to the enemy…
Garrett isn’t about to take any chances. Not with the woman who has stolen his heart.

Seriously…. I have another new favorite Author. I LOVED Garrett but Sam stole my heart. Her willingness to help protect herself, her courage to go back for Garrett, the strength it took to tell him the truth…. When she talked to him in front of the window, my heart melted. I wasn’t thrilled with her Father though. Too little to late on that guy!
Great thriller with a twist
A good story of a Marshal trying to keep a woman who witnessed a murder safe. From place to the next place. Of course, along the way, they became lovers even though the Marshall knew it was wrong. But the story did keep my attention to what happens next. Some surprises in it too.
this was the first book by this author that I read. I really enjoyed this book. I loved the story line, and the characters. The book kept me interested throughout and kept me reading way into the night. I would definitely recommend. I am also going to look for other books by this author.
I couldn’t turn the pages quick enough!
Short review. First book by author Allison B. Hanson that I have read but not my last. When Sam accidentally witness a murder her life is forever change, now she’s endanger and having to run for life. Luckily for her she’s not alone she has Deputy Marshall Garrett helping her and determine to help her make it to the trial to testify. The more time they spend together running from hit men and dodging bullets the more they want to give into their attraction to each other. Both Sam and Garrett are likable strong characters that you’ll want to see end up together. There are twist and turns throughout the story that will surprise you but some that you may have already guessed.
Decent story
Great held my interest
A great read!
Witness in the Dark by Allison B. Hanson
Love Under Fire #1
What would you do if you were the only eyewitness to a murder? Would you call the police? Would you be willing to testify? Would doing so be worth risking your life? Would you be willing to turn your back on everything and everyone to do what is right then start a new life in witness protection? Well, these are the question Samantha “Sam” Hutchinson faces one night when she accidentally sees a woman murdered and once she decides she can’t let a man with a high profile “get away with murder” her life changes forever. Each day brings Sam something new to deal with as she wonders if this day might be her last. AND if you were the one thinking today might be your last day…what would REALLY be important?
I was caught then kept engaged throughout this book wondering just what would happen next. I found Sam to be a strong female lead that was definitely a good match for Garrett. I loved the twists and turns and unveilings as they arrived and wondered how a woman likely going into witness protection would end up with a HEA. At the end of the book I wondered who will have their story told next in this series and whether or not this couple will show up at some point in the future.
Thank you to NetGalley and Entangled Publishing for the ARC – This is my honest review.
