This was really fun! I loved the road trip prisoner sequence in the first half, and only felt like it lost steam for me in the second half as things settled down considerably. There isn't really a relationship conflict, and that was disappointing coming off Indigo, which had a really layered relationship conflict that I loved. I also felt like the female main character was fully developed on page one, which is fun to read sometimes (she's a great character!) but I enjoy seeing the growth on page. Recommended for those who enjoy high-stakes external plots (she's wanted for murder, he's a retired bounty hunter, she's technically his prisoner, multiple kidnappings, etc) and enjoy low-angst relationships.
