Another notch for Ms. Bittner's belt

Another fabulous book by Rosanne Bittner. Every book is a keeper and Love's Bounty is no exception. The hero & heroine are well-developed and they are your good friends by the end. You hate to see it end and have to say goodbye to Christian Mercy (what a great name for a bounty hunter) and his Callie Hobbs. I never am I disappointed by a Bittner novel & hope she continues writing winners, like these for many, many years to come.

Love's Bounty

California Hobbs, better known as Callie, wanted revengeagainst the men who robbed and killed her father, then returned a fewmonths later and raped and killed her mother. All she needed was someone to help her. Enter bounty hunter, Christian Mercy. Callie saw him bring in three men for hanging and knew he was the one she wanted to help her. She'd give him everything she had--her farm, her livestock, her heart--if only he would help her fill that empty space inside where the rage burned.... Rosanne Bittner has done it again, weaving a spell of sexual tension intermingled with a desperate need for revenge between two people from totally different worlds. This is a Western romance with a definite twist. Another five-star for Rosanne!

Too short, but great neverless!

First off, I am a HUGE fan of Ms Bittner's work, I have been reading her for about 11 years now. This is the latest book from this brilliant writer. The only complaint I had with this book was the shortness. I love her work so much and was dissapointed when this one ended, if that could be considered a "complaint", lol. The story is about a young woman who hires a notorious bounty hunter named Christian Mercy to find the men who brutally murdered her mother and stole all her means of survival. The story is set in Wyoming in 1884. Callie Hobbs is a tomboy who feels she has nothing to lose by going on this trek across the west, through some of the most dangerous territory, like The Outlaw Trail. Callie is young and innocent, but Christian finds himself falling deeply in love with her. His dark past is filled with pain and regret, and he doesn't think he can ever love again. Callie makes him see different. This is an exciting story that only Rosanne Bittner could create so wonderfully. Both characters are full of life and I found myself caught up in the story. It made me cry in parts and smile in others. It's a great story that shouldn't be missed. All of Bittner's work shouldn't be passed-by. She writes in a way that has you feeling you actually are there with her characters in the "old west". Try this book, I don't think you'll be dissapointed.... =)
