"She watched him go, and the first peace she'd felt all day wrapped around her heart. She had her own personal Texas Ranger."

I became a fan of Texas Rangers when I first watched the television show The Lone Ranger and later, Walker, Texas Ranger. Now, I've found a new hero who's a also member of this law enforcement agency! Assistant US Attorney Christine Davis knows that's she's witnessed a murder but no one else will believe her. No one, that is, but Ranger Blake Larsen!

A non-stop, roller coaster ride of danger and intrigue begins immediately in Texas Witness Threat and it never lets up! I could feel Christine's terror in being caught in a severe thunderstorm, her desperate attempt to find shelter from the dangerous lightning, and then, the realization that someone has just been killed and she is the only witness! Ranger Larsen saves her life when she darts out in front of his vehicle and he continues to protect Christine in this exciting new Love Inspired Suspense novel. Will Blake succeed in finding the identity of the killers before he and Christine both become their next victims?

Author Cate Nolan has written an intriguing story filled with likeable characters, heart-racing action, and a sweet romance that may heal past hurts. There is also a subtle faith message in Texas Witness Threat that reminds us that God's timing is perfect: He knows what we need and He knows exactly when we need it!

4.5 Stars

I enjoy the Love Inspired Suspense books, but sometimes they run together. So when I read an LIS book with an unique plot and twists and turns I didn’t expect, it stands out. And Texas Witness Threat by Cate Nolan does just that.

From the terror of witnessing a murder to the frustration of her claims being ignored, Christine is a character readers will connect with quickly. And then there’s Blake. The only person who seems to be on her side.

The stakes are high, the twists and turns stomach-flipping, and the romance develops at just the right pace. If you’re looking for your next romantic suspense read, you can’t go wrong with this one.

I don't know if you can tell, but I have been hooked on the Love Inspired Suspense series lately! As with others from the series, with Texas Witness Threat I was captivated from the beginning, the action and suspense beginning instantly.

Christine Davis is in the wrong place at the wrong time, witnessing a murder that was not supposed to be see by anyone. The problem is that no one believes her, despite her being an assistant US Attorney, except Texas Ranger Blake Nolan, who actually almost hits her with her car. Blake is the only one that believes that Christine is telling the truth, and this trust sends them both on a suspense-filled adventure full of close calls and increasing fondness and faith, not only in themselves, but in others.

I enjoyed the story as a whole, but felt like I struggled to connect with Christine. Though Christine is a pretty well-developed character, I found myself feeling as if she somehow always kept me, the reader, at arms length. I always root for love, and am a sucker for a good love story, but I wasn't as excited about the outcome of this story as I usually am, most likely due to my lack of connection with Christine, which was a big disappointment.

Blake, on the other hand, was the strong and sensitive hero that was easy to fall in love with. My heart went out to his personal struggle throughout the novel, and loved seeing hope rise with him again as the story progressed. I couldn't wait to find out how things worked out with him, and admired both his and Christine's strength as they both fought to find the truth.

The fact that it is set in my home state also had me swooning. I am a Lone Star gal through and through, and felt this fact alone kept me engaged, but even if it wouldn't have been I know I would've still been hooked. The pace is perfection, the writing is great, and it has just enough intrigue to keep me guessing until the very end. Though I was able to figure out the 'who done it' pretty early on, Christine and Blake made such a wonderful team I couldn't help but crave to know the outcome.

A great suspense and perfect addition to this already addictive series.
