Defending the Witness by Sharee Stover

Ayla DuPree witnesses a murder and is sent straight into witness protection.  Her handler is killed and US Marshall Chance Tavalla is task with her protection.  He's a fugitive hunter not a babysitter.  So he's not too happy with the detail.  Ayla isn't too happy either.  She's afraid to trust anyone with her life.  At every turn is seems like someone has found out where Ayla is and tries to kill her.  

The characters were both Christians, so there was some religion throughout the book.  It wasn't overbearing.  This was a clean fast paced Christian book that kept me reading.  It was a book that I would let my teenage granddaughters read.

Cold Pursuit by Nancy Mehl

River and Tony are both suffering from the after affects of their last case as FBI agents. They both about died.  River decided to move to St. Louis because her mother is suffering from Alzheimer.  Tony decides to move there also.  He's never had a different partner than River and didn't want to start now.   So they decide to open a PI office.  A mother comes to them and wants her to find her son.  He's been missing for four years.  She just wants closure.  

This is a fast paced mystery that will keep you guessing and kept me reading. There are several sub plots in the book as well.  Interwoven is a mystery that doesn't get solved.  River and Tony aren't even aware of what's going on.  But they will.
