My Review of THE WIDOW'S PROTECTOR by Stephanie Newton

The Blurb:
Someone is trying to take everything from widowed mother Fiona Fitzgerald Cobb. Their method? Fires, like the one that left her little boy fatherless—and destroyed Fiona's dreams—two years earlier. Could the attacks be linked? Fitzgerald Bay firefighter Hunter Reece vows to keep Fiona and her son safe. He wasn't able to save her husband—his best friend. This time, he won't let Fiona down. Especially since the handsome man she's known all her life has a secret, …one that will make him risk everything to save her.

My Review:I really enjoy romances where the guy and gal have been best friends forever and something clicks to make them realize they love each other. Add in a firefighter, and I'm all in! 

Ms. Newton set up great conflict in this story. Two years ago, Fiona Cobb's firefighter husband died on-duty, and now someone's targeting her and her son. When authorities suspect her long-time best friend, Hunter Reece, also a firefighter, Fiona struggles to convince her law enforcement family members that they're looking at the wrong guy. How can she fall in love with her best friend, another firefighter? With real-to-life characters and fast-paced action, Ms. Newton crafts a nice read for any time of day.

Although this books is part of Love Inspired Suspense Fitzgerald Bay series, you don't have to read the other books in the series first.
