Michelle Sutton's sequel to Danger Behind the Door, In Plain Sight, delves into the life of Bojan's sister, Jovana, and the results of her teenaged lifestyle. I would say "lifestyle choices" but at age fifteen, Jovana may have chosen to run from the family who loved her to the gang of men who abused her, though in most of the civilized world we call such men kidnappers and pedophiles.
Michelle's characters again are extremely engaging. Both of her main characters, Jovana and Randy, underwent traumatic events. Both were changed by their experiences. The story begins close to the wedding of Bojan and Laney. Jovana has come to the United States from Macedonia to be with her brother. She works in one of his restaurants where Randy is the manager and has a not-so-secret crush on Jovana. Jovana's years of living with a man who abused her left her a victim of uncontrolled sexual behavior she uses to protect her emotions. Although she dedicated her life to Christ, she still has a long way to go to learn self-control. When she finds herself attracted to a good man, Randy, she acts out to test his character. Randy was hurt in a robbery at a former place of business. For protection, he carries a weapon. Bojan thinks Randy will be a good bodyguard for his sister while he and Laney are on their honeymoon and asks him to stay with her. Randy soon learns that he must also protect her from herself when she is attracted to a villain.
I enjoy Michelle's ability to draw me into an exotic world. Her people experience real pain and temptation, even after being forgiven. They learn that together they are stronger when they uphold each other's resolve to live a faithful life. And that's an encouraging message.

In Plain Sight edition by Michelle Sutton Religion Spirituality eBooks Reviews
In Plain Sight is the story of Jovana, a beautiful immigrant from Macedonia trying to escape a troubled past and start over. As a new Christian, she is determined to do the right thing, but can she trust either of the men who seem to have fallen for her? More importantly, can she trust herself? In this book, author Michelle Sutton continues to write from a heart of passion. Her treatment of sexual issues within a Christian context are bold, realistic and refreshing, while the strong redemptive message in this book comes across loud and clear without being `preachy'. Well done! There is definitely plenty of heat, but it is always tasteful and honest. Any less would have been weak, especially considering the background of the main characters.
Although there are certainly elements of suspense in this book, I would have to say that it is still best categorized as straight-up romance. For me, suspense is all about the unexpected, and there really were no surprises. However, it seemed as though Sutton did this quite consciously. Even though the plot was quite predictable, this was not necessarily a bad thing. Not only do we see the story from the point of view of both the female heroine and male hero, but we are actually allowed into the mind of the psychotic antagonist, Kurt. Right from the opening paragraph we know that he is bad news. For me, the tension came from my own silent pleas with the heroine, Jovana, to NOT be so easily manipulated.
The real strength of this novel, in my opinion, is the rich message of God's grace and redemption that is so beautifully presented. Jovana is a complex character with a very mottled past. Sometimes her actions seem almost irrational, but this was part of what I appreciated about the book. In reality, people who have suffered deep trauma often act in unpredictable ways. Jovana is a classic case and just because she gave her heart to Christ, she still needed time and help with the mending process.
In Plain Sight is well written, engaging, sensual, and most of all, a wonderful example of Christ's redeeming love. The message that God has can redeem even the vilest of sinners comes across with eloquence and impact, while at the same time never overshadowing the warmth of the romance. I give In Plain Sight 4 ½ stars.
I have not read much of her, but would read more
Jovana's story after reading Danger at the Door could not have been a better addition! I loved every moment of watching her struggle, survive and conquer with the help of a man she didn't expect to love-once again, Michelle has shown how God's love can lead you through anything and make it better. I absolutely recommend this book!
Michelle Sutton is the bomb! The woman knows how to tell a great story! She never disappoints. I thoroughly enjoyed In Plain Sight. Loved it even more than the first one, Danger At The Door. In Plain Sight is my favorite novel out of all of Michelle's. I loved the suspense! How she kept me hooked. Wanting to know what happens next. Her characters in this novel are great! You really feel the pain that Jovana and Randy have gone through in their pasts. You get to see the healing process that they go through. I like how she tied in the story of Hosea and Gomer. All and all another wonderful read! The only complaint I have is that she has a tendency of keeping me up until four or five in the morning when I'm reading one of her books. Lol You know I love you, girl!
