Bounty Hunter romance books
She always gets her mark — until the one she's hunting becomes the one she can't hand over.
The bounty-hunter heroine is a lone wolf with a dangerous trade. She tracks, captures, and collects, answering to no one and trusting almost as few, hardened by a life spent hunting the worst of humanity for pay. The fantasy is the thrill of the chase turned inward — when the target, or the man she's been hired to find, becomes the one person she can't bring herself to deliver.
She's a favorite of Western historicals, romantic suspense, and sci-fi and fantasy adventure, overlapping with the outlaw, assassin, and antiheroine types. The romance often runs on enemies-to-lovers or reluctant-allies tension and the slow crack in a hardened loner's armor. The heat ranges from warm to high.
For readers who love lone wolves, the thrill of the chase, and a hardened hunter undone by her quarry, the bounty hunter is a rugged thrill.
