The story is very complex and inetersting and I loved how the heroine, Kendall was behaving. She was in a very bad situation, but she made the most of what she has at heand to overcome it! Just excellent!

And she does, even ends up marrying the author from the original article and into one of the most influential families in town. Kendall believes that she has found her place. However, things are not all what they seem in this small town, there are secrets in this town that no one wants exposed.
I'm happy to say that I really enjoyed this book. I was a little worried after reading the Best Kept Secrets by Sandra Brown as I did not enjoy that book at all, but this book redeemed my trust in Brown as an author. I did not want to put this book down I had to know all the secrets of the town and what Kendall was running from.
This book had everything that a reader would be looking for in a thriller as it had suspense, twist, turns, conspiracies and more. Brown did a great job of crafting the story and creating suspense that will keep you on your toes.
I enjoyed how Brown switched back and forth between the past a present as it kept me wondering what Kendall was running from as well as trying to figure out what her next move will be. I personally did not find it hard with the switches, but if you are not a fan of this writing style this book is not for you. It tended to be one chapter in the present next chapter in the past.
I liked Kendall as a character and her willingness to do anything for herself and her baby Kevin to survive. She is smart, has a great heart and I enjoyed her quick mind and how she adapts the situation in order to fit what she needs. Yes she is a manipulator and yes she is a liar but I think that she uses these traits when she needs them in order to survive.
I also enjoyed her interaction with John and his confusion with his amnesia. I think that Brown did this interaction really well. This book was fantastic and has put my faith back into Brown's novels.
I think this is one of the best Brown books that I have read in a long time. Nov 19, Rachel rated it it was amazing Shelves: not-a-manwhore , romantic-suspense , favorites , safe , single-parent-baby. Overall rating: 4. This book is so suspenseful and has SO much going on with twists and turns it is very hard to review without giving away plot details that you just have to experience.
What I will say is that you have the heroine, Kendall, who witnesses something horrible and she will stop at nothing to protect her and her son. I really can't say more without giving away the plot. Honestly, I am one for spoilers in any way, shape or form. I love them, but going in blind is the best way to read this one. The way things are revealed and the story telling is just amazing. This author is wonderful! I am so glad I gave this book a chance!!! View all 12 comments.
In these older Sandra Brown novels she really likes delving into the dysfunctional small US southern towns and the people who inhabit them. And this is exactly what happens in The Witness. This one pushes the bounds of reality right to the edge with a secret "Brotherhood" meting out their sort of justice to anyone who doesn't meet their racist and misogynist requirements and our plucky heroine who inadvertently marries a member stumbles into their nefarious activities.
There were a few of the Sa In these older Sandra Brown novels she really likes delving into the dysfunctional small US southern towns and the people who inhabit them.
There were a few of the Sandra Brown twists and turns but not quite the edge of your seat drama that packs so much of a punch in her more recent novels. Still Sandra Brown on an ordinary day is a better read than most other suspense writers. The story was compelling and every character got a multi-layered tier of secrets. Worth reading!

The first half of the book is intriguing, but the second half is boring as hell. Plus, I could not connect with the characters. View all 4 comments. An entertaining book nevertheless.
May 19, Kat Irvine rated it did not like it Shelves: The writing was the best part of the book, and while it was well written it also annoyed the crap out of me. Who is this person? Is this character him or someone different. Every detail doesn't have to be a mystery. But once it got going, the writing flowed really well and the pace kept you wanting to read. The plot. Oh dear god. Change the gender, add a few mysterious details, and it is the Simon Pegg movie Hot Fuzz.
I do believe the book came first, but that tells you how ridiculous the story is if it's the same as a comedy. The plot details all fall apart upon inspection. Seriously, in it's so difficult for a female lawyer to get a job? Oh, and this really smart chick thinks it's a good idea to steal someone's identity.
And when she's running from horrible husband she doesn't just use her actual identity?! Oh, and come on, if an FBI agent went missing in this backward ass town, then the feds would have been swarming that place LONG before she had a change to run for it!! Good god, come on! Oh, and while i was rooting for the love angle between John and Kendell about the most interesting part of the book it was completely a Stockholm syndrome love interest!

In desperate need of a good book, after a slew of crap, I scrolled back through books I'd enjoyed, and settled on this. I'm must say it blew me out of the park, Sandra Brown has crafted a suspenseful, twisty-turny, nail biting plot.
And John is simply swoon-w I read this book in and rated it 4 stars. And John is simply swoon-worthy. Re-read verdict - 5 big fat stars. Jun 20, D. Review of audiobook version narrated by Joyce Bean. What a crazy book! The action was exciting, there was incredible chemistry between the main leads and there were a lot of good twists.
The big problem? Very little of the book dealt with the relationship between the hero and heroine if I hav Review of audiobook version narrated by Joyce Bean. As the story is unfolding, the atmosphere is sinister and frightening. Also there was a twist at the end that was completely unnecessary and gave me my biggest WTF moment. As usual, Joyce Bean did an excellent job with the narration I picked up the book because she was the reader in the first place.
Skimming was the only way I could get through this book. The characters were flat and more like caricatures and none of them likeable. And amnesia, despite being an awful plot device, also needed to be researched a whole lot more before Sandra Brown decided to use it in ways that make no sense.
View 1 comment. Oct 24, Vicente Ambou rated it really liked it. Kendall, a pretty woman, is a young lawyer at Sheridan, a little town of Tennessee, which left her firm to take a job of public defender at Prosper, South Carolina. During her first months there in Prosper, she falls in love with Matt Burnwood, young journalist and the son of a respectable patriarch of the locality. The future of the jurist seems promising on her triple conquest: a good professional future, a gallant husband whom she loves and the beautiful baby that they eventually got.
Kendall get involved too in it, since she becomes an eyewitness of an awful racial murder. Then she decides to run away, taking with her the little baby of them. And then starts that weird adventure that, as a gruesome Road Movie, puts the chased lawyer in an automobile crash wherein either she and her baby come out intact, but leaving battered and amnesiac her companion, a man which identity she hides from the authorities all the long their route, in which uncertainty prevails: whether she is able to flee indefinitely, or she takes the risk of being taken back in Prosper, to give her testimony.
Jun 24, Janet Robel rated it it was amazing. Brown hits it out of the ballpark with another explosive read. I love the way everything is a puzzle that you try to fit together, until you get to the end, and all is revealed and not what you thought. Jan 26, Tracy rated it really liked it. Really pretty sick and twisted. Mar 01, Courtney Davis rated it it was ok.
Like the several novels I have read by this author prior to this I really, really wanted to like it. Sandra Brown writes a good thriller. A damn great thriller in fact. However, that's not all she writes and every time she throws in the damn love scene s I literally sigh out loud. Why oh why? Most of the novels, do NOT need them.
They are great as they are. Why fix what ain't broke?? I've also noticed a pattern here Gag me with a spoon. John lowered himself into the tub, keeping his cast out of the water. It took some maneuvering, but he managed to bend forward far enough to duck his head beneath the faucet and thoroughly wet his hair, then he reached for the naked baby lying on the bath mat.
Leave a note in the mailbox, you dumb jerk! Even better, he might catch the postman on his route. Now that he had another plan in mind, he felt energized. He covered the distance back to the house in half the time. Even so, as he reached the porch he heard her car turning into the lane.
If Kendall saw him like this, she would know he was up to something. He heard her footsteps on the porch. Where's Kevin? I can't hear you, Kendall. The water's running.
