Heart of a Hunter

A romantic suspense novel about a woman who has lost her memory, the U.S. Marshal husband she no longer remembers, and the killer determined to finish what he started.

A forgotten identity. A deadly scheme. Can one man keep his beloved safe from a callous enemy?

Olivia Falconer despairs that she’ll never recover her memories. After a mysterious car wreck sends her to the hospital, she learns her amnesia may last a lifetime. Even more unsettling, she must go home with a husband she doesn’t recognize—a fiercely protective U.S. Marshal who insists the only way to keep her alive is to hide her away in a remote fortress.

U.S. Marshal Sebastian Falconer lives to defend the people he loves. When he discovers the crash that nearly killed his wife was no accident, he’s determined to find the convicted felon behind the deadly plot. But with the culprit still at large, Sebastian is torn between caring for the frightened woman who no longer remembers their marriage and hunting down the man who wants her dead.

Frustrated by Sebastian’s overprotectiveness and the long hours she spends alone without answers, Olivia begins piecing together the life she lost. She may not remember falling in love with Sebastian, but the attraction between them is impossible to ignore—and so is the growing sense that danger is much closer than either of them realizes.

As Sebastian desperately tries to help Olivia recover her memories, his well-intentioned efforts could lead an elusive killer straight to their door.

To survive, Olivia and Sebastian must uncover the truth, outwit a ruthless enemy, and find their way back to a love only one of them remembers.
