Wow! Another great book by Debra Webb!
A real page-turner, I couldn’t put it down!
Great characters and a good balance between romance and suspense. I really like witness protection and US Marshal books and this one was very good! I loved Jax and Allison.
This book is part of a series but it can be read as a standalone, no cliffhangers! I highly recommend this book, definitely five stars !
I was fortunate to recieve this book as a paperback ARC from the author Debra Webb.
Her books always make me want to keep on reading! This review is my honest opinion
Witness PROTECTION Widow
Debra Webb
Another venture into Winchester, Tennessee that brings twists and turns to keep you on the edge of your seat and fingers quickly flipping pages until the end.
Allison and Jaxson meet up again when he is sent to protect a WITSEC witness safe. Will their past interfere with her safety.
A strong heroine needs a strong hero . These two are right for each other, but can they survive to find a happy ever after?
Highly recommend this book and the Winchester, Tennessee Thriller series.
This is the latest in the Winchester, Tennessee, series by Debra Webb. Although this is a fast read, the story keeps you engaged until the very end.
I sat down and read this book in one sitting. Plenty of action and steam kept me riveted to my seat. She had gone into the marriage wearing rose tinted glasses and no clue who the man beside her truly was. He had left her to pursue his career and his pride kept him from reaching out when she needed him most. They both have made mistakes and now they have the chance to make things right. This is a fast paced read with plenty of intrigue and high energy.
This is my first read by this author and I am glad I had the opportunity to try her out. I will definitely be back for more.
I received a copy of this book from the author and this is my voluntary review. I have not read a Debra Webb book yet that I did not enjoy! I feel like I’m part of the story as I move through the superbly written words. I want to reach out and help the characters with their problems. In my book, Debra Webb is an extraordinary author and I will continue to read her books for as long as she continues to write them. Enjoy!
Another great book from Debra Webb! I am so glad I found my way back to her books.
Who would have thought witnessing your husband’s murder would lead to a second chance love? This book is a quick, page turning, action packed, read with just the right amount of everything!
If you haven’t had the pleasure of reading any of this authors books, you are truly doing yourself a huge disservice.

I liked reading about a strong woman in the face of certain retaliation of death. Four days till the trial that her testimony will put the mob head behind bars forever. That is if she can keep alive that long. Allison James is determined to be in court if she’s still breathing. Jax is assigned to protect her. The woman he walked away from so many years ago even though he was in love with her. Now he is assigned to keep her alive but he resents that she married a man purely evil. How could she? He planned to return for her. But it’s been ten years since they were young and so in love and she didn’t wait. Now it’ll take every thing he knows to get her to court alive. A great story of doing the right thing even if it costs you the untimely sacrifice. Thank you Debra Webb for allowing me to read this early reader copy. This is my true and honest opinion. Worth the read!
Love this author’s way of bringing to life , strong woman with great endurance, self reflection, strong heart ,mind and soul to all her characters .Allison is a widow of a crime boss and a witness to his murder , what she had to go through would break anyone, now her heart needs protected when her old love is the man in charge of keeping her safe . Great Suspense , strong lead characters , great read!
Absolutely love the way Debra’s writing draws you into a book bringing the characters alive, this book is just the same Allison thought that she was out of danger when she left her marriage but this time she’s in for the ride of her life, will jax be able to save her or will Allison’s luck run out? An thrill riding book for all. It was an easy book to read with amazing characters and plot.
Allison James was married to a mob boss for five years; three of them as his prisoner. When she witnessed her father-in-law murder his own son in front of her; she knew she needed to escape. Once Allison finally got to to the FBI she was put in WITSEC. Finally, she felt safer than she had in a long time. Bob, her dog is trained to protect and her constant companion. Soon she learned she was to be moved, the U S Marshall who was protecting her was injured in an auto accident. The replacement turned out to be her former boyfriend…
Alison fell into this mess after her first love Jaxson Stevens decided to leave her to pursue his dream career as a U S Marshall. Jax has never stopped loving Ali but, his heart was crushed when he found out she married a year after he left. Even though he had kept up with what she was doing, he never let her know. Now that she is in Witness Protection and her current police protection is in the hospital. They call in Jaxson to assist for the next four days of protection before the trial.
I loved getting to see both sides of the story and see how easily things can be misinterpreted. I really enjoyed this book which is a part of Webb’s Winchester, Tennessee series so a number of familiar faces pop up to bring background to the story.. The author did an excellent job of using the backstory from the previous four books along with their characters sprinkled throughout the plot and blended well with the story line. This book could be read as a standalone one however, I feel that the reader would gain much more from reading the previous titles to learn more about the characters.
If you love action-packed suspense then this is the book for you!I look forward to reading the next book in this series. I received an ARC of this book for an honest review. Thank you Debra Webb for allowing me to read this title.
After Ali escapes her marriage, one she thought was a fairytale. Only to realize it was Way Beyond that.. in the beginning her husband was a wonderful loving guy turns out things aren’t always what they should be… one question from a stranger can change everything… then you end up back in Tennessee.. and before you know it someone you haven’t seen for years. Is there to help for your protection…
I have Read all the Winchester Tennessee Thriller series absolutely love them. Debra Webb. Does an amazing job.
Thank you. For these wonderful stories..
I have to say that I think this one was my favorite so far in this series. Ali, (Allison James) is such a compelling character. Her strength of character makes her one of the strongest of heroines. After enduring years of abuse both physically and mentally, Ali is ready to put a stop to the monsters in her nightmare world. In making this decision she comes to terms that she might not survive and is willing to do what is needed to be done. But when she discovers that the new US Marshal that will be protecting her is Jaxson Stevens, the man she fell in love with years ago, she is not willing to put his life at risk. When Jaxson Stevens discovers that the woman he fell in love with when he was just starting his career is the woman he is now to protect he has problems reconciling that girl with the woman that had been married to a monster. But there is one thing he is certain, he will keep her alive. As the clock ticks down to the finale, Debra takes the time to “flesh out” these characters. Little by little she adds depth and strength as she tells Ali’s story. Little by little you learn just how strong this quiet woman is. And little by little Jaxson becomes a hero we can root for. Yep, I think, for now, this is my favorite. It isn’t a heart-racing pounding thrill ride but a quiet look into the face of pure evil and coming out the other side.
4 1/2 STARS!
With the fifth book in her A Winchester, Tennessee Thriller series, Debra Webb brings us the story of a woman in witness protection in WITNESS PROTECTION WIDOW. The story was intense and danger chased them around every corner.
Allison James lived a nightmare with her late husband and barely lived to tell the story after escaping his maniacal family. She’s an interesting character with a lot of grit and fortitude and it’s easy to root for her as the story unfolds.
Jaxson Stevens is the ex that broke her heart all those years ago and happenstance has him stepping in to protect her four days before she’s set to testify and bring down the head of her late husband’s family. He’s filled with regret and snags a reader’s heart quickly.
I recommend this story to anyone who enjoys a danger filled, action packed reunion story. It’s fast paced, well developed and though the ending felt a bit abrupt, I really enjoyed it!
I got this book from Debra as ARC book and in return for her sharing her new books I give her a honest review of the book. Debra Witness Protection Widow gets 10 stars even though I can only put up 5 stars.

There was many chances to get to her but Ali was protected buy the best. There was many tight spots they where in but they were always had a plan to get to safety. This is another book that I would recommed for anyone who loves intrigue suspense books. This was extremly well writing and kept me in suspense till the end. Please I would say Debra Webb’s books are worth trying and hope you enjoy this book as much as I did.
Anytime I get a new Debra Webb book to read, I get excited because I know that I am in for a treat of tautly written suspense as well as romance that captures my heart. WITNESS PROTECTION WIDOW presents the suspense and the romance in just the right mixture to intrigue fans of both genres.

Barely escaping with her life after her husband is killed, now Ali is ready to testify against her father-in-law, if she can just stay alive to do so.

Thank you Debra Webb for the ARC of Witness Protection Widow by Debra Webb that I read and reviewed on my own.
I really enjoyed this book which is part of Webb’s Winchester, Tennessee series so a number of familiar faces pop up to help and that adds to the story and to the book. As for the main characters Ali and Jax they both had history that had to be resolved while he was protecting her before she was going to testify against her ex father-in-law who killed her husband in cold blood over who was going to be head of a crime family. Needless to say her marriage was not a pretty one and Jax, a former boyfriend, went in with all kinds of ideas about her.
This is another great read by Webb that I could not put down. Jax and Ali had some communication issues they had to work through but they both wanted to keep the other safe.
Witness Protection Widow gets five out of five stars.
Another winner by Debra Webb! Follow Ali and Jaxson as their love story continues while he helps her escape certain death at hands of her in-laws, a crime family determined to keep her from testifying against them. Debra is at her finest again as we visit Winchester TN, to make new friends and re-acquaint with old ones
I received Witness Protection Widow from NetGalley and the publisher and this is my fair and honest review.
This is the fifth book in the Winchester, Tennessee series and as always Debra Webb doesn’t disappoint. I read this book in one afternoon, this was a fast paced and action packed book. Although the book is part of a series it very easily can be read as a stand alone. I would definitely recommend this book to others.
