Book Description from Goodreads:
When her brother is set up for a murder he didn’t commit, the last thing Naomi Pearson wants to do is turn to her bounty hunter ex-husband for help. But she knows Connor Ryan is her best option to bring Jared home safely after he disappears. When the criminals come after Naomi too, will Connor’s protection keep her alive long enough to find her brother?


My Review:
Fugitive in Hiding is a Christian romantic suspense. It's the 4th in a series but works as a stand-alone. The bounty hunter angle was interesting. Since Connor wasn't law enforcement, it limited what they could do to solve the case. His team mostly tried to protect Naomi from repeated attacks, tried to figure out why she was a target (as she had no clue), and tried to track down and arrest her brother, who had failed to show up for his court date.

The main characters were likable and reacted realistically to events. Naomi and Connor were briefly married before a tragedy pulled them apart. Now, years later, they discovered that they liked the other's more mature personality. They felt that life experience plus the fact that both accepted God and allowed Him to change them would help them respond better as a couple in the future. There was no sex or bad language. Overall, I'd recommend this enjoyable suspense novel.
