WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT THE WITNESS:
FIVE STARS!!
"This exciting police procedural romance is the latest
in the six female cops "Women in Blue" sisterhood tales. Mini-series
fans will appreciate this fabulous contemporary that looks deep into the
mean streets of Houston from the perspective of compassionate individuals
fighting an uphill battle while finding love."
--Harriet Klauser
5 Hearts! "My immediate reaction at the end of this book was "Wow!" I found the investigation intriguing and the romance touching. I felt the frustration Christa endures within the police system as she tries not to betray her personal ethics. The scene where she encounters her ex-husband for the first time in years made me cheer.
I have been reading this series and this one is the best
of the three. Because each book is about a different case, it
stands alone quite well. I would love to see Alex and Crista in a
further story. With his work as a community change agent and her
police work, I could see the possibility of further satisfying tales."
-- B. Kathy Leitle, The Romance Reader
"A story you won't soon forget! Wonderful story,
rich in family values, culture and tradition with love on several
levels, while the characters come together to build a moving,
unforgettable story."
-- Rendezvous magazine
"THE WITNESS by Linda Style could easily be taken from today’s headlines. One of six books in the Women in Blue series, THE WITNESS is a dynamic story with a strong caring heroine and perceptive understanding hero. Linda Style presents inner city life of gangs and police corruption in a very personal way.
Accolades go to Linda Style for the very insightful book,
THE WITNESS. My appetite has been whetted for more of the Women in Blue
series and especially for more books by Linda Style. I whole heartedly
recommend THE WITNESS as a book for your keeper shelf."
-- Donna at Cataromance.com
"Linda Style's book (THE WITNESS) has welcome depth thanks to its focus on Crista's family life, her past and the portrayal of several classes of Latino culture." -- RT BookClub

There hasn't been a daddy in Hallie's house for a while now.
Her parents, Logan Wakefield and Dana Marlowe, are divorced. Hallie lives with her mommy in Chicago, and her daddy is an investigator who travels all over the world.
Then Hallie has an accident. Logan rushes to the hospital where his daughter is still unconscious. Dana's not sure how to react when Logan announces that he'll be moving back into the house. She has no choice but to agree, at least while Hallie's still recovering, and while Dana herself, who works for the State Attorney's office is involved with a potentially dangerous case.
So, Daddy comes home. And that's good for Hallie, even if she's
puzzled by the way mommy and daddy are acting-they're mad at
