Fingerprints by Barbara Delinsky
Carly Quinn is now under the witness protection program and she lives in MA. She has visited a few local touristy places to help fit in.
Her father she only calls when she really needs him. He has no access to call her but he has access to the agents who can help her.
Ryan Cornell, a lawyer, is new to her complex. Ryan is the runner she had walked across his path earlier. He had locked his keys in his car.
Sam Loomis is the agent and his partner is Riley. She had seen something that will put others away in jail forever. If it comes to trial she will have to testify.
Needlepoint helps calm her. Her mentor is Sylvia and she loves to teach her new things.
Gary Culvert is the criminal she hopes to put away.
I got wrapped up in this book and can feel/sense the danger just around the corner. Things aren't going good with her as the criminal is appealing the decision and he may get off...
Lots of hot steamy sex as she learns to trust him.
Sheila is back in her life now also as she moved to Boston. Ryan sets up his brother Tom to date Sheila so they are a foursome now.
Carly almost wants to confide in Ryan about her past but will it be safe?
Things don't add up and Ryan figures a few things out. There are other signals that Carly doesn't see...

Interesting but fairly easy to figure out plot. Written before cell phones were ubiquitous and that would have changed the story.

An older book and not one I could finish.

Had no clue that I'd already read this book. I suspected some things about some of the characters. And although I pretty much knew how it would end, I did find the last 2 chapters to be page turners.

an excellent story right from the beginning. delinsky gives excellent details to ensure that you get the best picture of the story in your head. the way she describes the emotions that carly, ryan, sam, tom, and even greg are feeling are awesome. i love the way carly holds back her true feelings for ryan. i love the way ryan finially accepts them. while under the witness protection program, carly is relocated to boston. while there she runs into ryan, a well known lawyer. carly hates the thought of any lawyers, so there is no way that she wanted to get involved with this one, no matter how handsome he was. but ryan never gives up. he has everything he wants, except carly's trust. and carly doesn't know who to trust anyone. a must read for any fan of barbara delinsky.

This book started out strong, but it wound up being just okay. It was originally published in the '80s so it felt a bit dated because of that. I'm also not a huge fan of romantic suspense, and I started to lose interest when the suspense elements became more and more prevalent. I also saw the ending coming ten miles away and that made finishing the book somewhat anticlimactic. I did like the audiobook narrator.
