Publisher Description
The Texas Bounty series heats up as a female bounty hunter goes toe-to-toe with the tantalizing biker who never stopped loving her.
Nora Sutcliffe enjoys having tough guys at her mercy—preferably in handcuffs. The best fugitive recovery agent in the business, Nora always gets her man. But when her latest pursuit leads her to a notorious biker hangout, she’s reunited with “Smith”: the one man who was too hot for Nora to handle. Once upon a time, she was a rich girl and he was a bad boy from the wrong side of the tracks. Now she needs his help, and she’ll do whatever it takes to get it.
Eight years ago, Smith let a pretty little Texas debutante break his heart. He picked up the pieces, went to hell and back with the army, then rode out of the darkness with a gang of outlaws at his back. The last thing he needs is a blast from the past like Nora, who has reinvented herself as a gun-toting badass with the stones to challenge him in front of the whole club. But if she thinks Smith will give up one of his brothers for a single night of pleasure, she’s in for a rude awakening.
Includes an excerpt from another Loveswept title.

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Nora Sutcliffe may not be every man's dream woman, but in Ashenden's powerful contemporary romance she is biker Smith's ideal. Eight years ago she was a demure Houston debutante who flirted with danger when she enticed Smith, a "trailer-park-trash" laborer, to come down off his ladder and get to know her better. A lot has changed since their brief summer romance. Now Nora's a professional fugitive-recovery agent who turns Smith on because there's nothing he likes better than "a chick with a gun." She's popped back into his life determined to take at least one prisoner Smith's bail bond skipping right-hand man and deliver him to justice. Smith refuses to turn him over, and Nora chooses principle and righteousness, even if it means giving up on romance with Smith. The second-tier characters lack dimension, but the plot moves along apace, and the mutual attraction between Smith and Nora is convincingly fiery.
