Hazel and Heath
Hazel is on a private plane that belongs to her friend Jamieson's business partner Brigham London. Only she doesn't like him or how he looks at her and how he makes her feel. Jamieson has told her that he will be teaching her how to ski and making sure she enjoys her trip. Only she forgets her phone on the plane and has to go back and get it. What she sees terrifies her so badly that she runs! She's so scared that Brigham will find and catch her she has to get away! Finally she finally finds an unlocked door and when she hears voices she climbs onto the plane, which is smaller than the one she was just on! Two men get on the plane and thankfully neither see her until one sets down across from her hiding place. While she's telling him why she is on his plane, the other man, the pilot, Gary, comes and says that someone is in the middle of the runway flagging him to stop. Finally Heath opens the door and who tries to force his way in? None other than the one man he hates more than anyone, Brigham London! Heath isn't having it and asks what he wants, and sure enough Brigham gives him a sob story! Who will he believe? Hazel's story was by far a much more believable rendition of what may have happened, but, it does involve Brigham. Hmmm, what to do? You really need to read this great book by Cami Checketts to find out!

Hazel & Heath Strong
This is a very suspenseful story as Heath helps Hazel escape a mafia connected sleaze who she saw push his cousin down a flight of stairs, potentially to his death. The hide & seek tactics to keep her out of sight of his family, and an uphill chase on snowshoes would film really well in a holiday movie, one you might even be able to persuade your husband, brother or teen into watching with you.
I received a copy of this story in a collection boxset from the author and voluntarily chose to share my review.

Tense and romantic
Hazel and Heath. Woo! Hoo! This books starts off with a bang. Then it keeps on going. I have to love Hazel. She’s spunky, outgoing, rambunctious, crazy, smart, brave, and lovable. Who would have guessed that Heath would fall for someone like her. And Heath. He’s smart, hardworking, vulnerable, tenacious, brave, and romantic. You won’t want to put this book down. It’s tense, exciting, and full of love and romance. And, of course, a happy ending.

Don't Fall for a Fugitive
What an amazing book!!! This was a joy to read and very hard to put down even for a few minutes. The characters were down to earth and very believable in what they did. The mystery and the intrigue were extra good. Loved that mixed in with the love and affection show between the characters. This was a Free book and another great read. This is my review and mine alone. Norma Gorrill

Hazel and Heath are so cute together! Probably because Hazel epitomizes adorable. A close second is Heath's younger brother Austin. Both characters had me laughing out loud as I read this story. Heath is a tough and successful businessman whose life turned upside down when Hazel stowed away on his private jet. I love seeing the Strong family together and all the love they share for one another. I can't wait for Austin to grow up and have a story of his own. It will be epic.

Romantic Suspense
Hazel had a funny, quirky, lovable personality that drew me into this story right from the beginning. Once I was drawn in, I was caught for the duration of this novel.
The writer's words painted clear pictures that helped me to visualize the scenes and the emotions of the characters.
If you're looking for a fun romantic suspense you will enjoy this one.

I’m loving this strong family series!!!! It was so much fun to learn more about Heath and I absolutely adore Hazel. My Mom is British so it was awesome to read all the British sayings and words I grew up with. There were parts of this one that were a little slower for me but I loved all the extra romance and the excitement at the end! I can’t wait to keep reading the rest of this series!

Review of Don't Fall for a Fugitive
I absolutely love Cami and her books. She is one of my favorite writers. I started with her Park City Firefighters and have read almost all of her books.

I really enjoyed this continuation of the Strong family series. Hazel happens to be at the wrong place at the wrong time and has an obsessed creepy billionaire after her. She finds solitude with Heath. Will she find more with Heath? Will her stalker find her?

Love on the run
Another great story in the Strong family series. Brother Heath doesn’t know what hit him when he finds a fugitive stowaway on his plane. Can he keep her safe? Can he keep his heart safe while helping her. Guess you will have to read it to find out!

Great story
Loved the story, but the bad British slang was distracting and awkward. I am enjoying the Strong Family series overall though!

Cute holiday read.
Moral Note: Some passionate kissing, innuendos, mild/heavy violence.
