Stories come lots of different ways. This was a first for me.Janet Dean: I developed The Bounty Hunter’s Redemption from this sentence that popped into my head one morning: When you’ve been married to a polecat, it takes a while to get rid of the stench. I wrote it down, puzzled by what it meant. I knew a polecat is another term for a skunk so decided this would be the thought of a widowed heroine who’d had a bad marriage. Soon I was writing the first scene with heroine Carly and her son standing at her husband Max’s grave. Max was a cruel man so she’s relieved that now she can run her shop and take care of her son without fear. Naturally after a bad marriage, she’d resist another relationship, but especially to a man she’d see as being like her dead husband, someone like a bounty hunter. Soon I had created two people highly unlikely to fall in love and upped the trouble by having Nate claim her seamstress shop for his widowed sister. Nate’s reason for doing so is understandable and his claim is legitimate, but Carly vows to fight for her livelihood and home. Even with the strong conflict between these two, the chemistry between them is even stronger. By the story’s end, Nate and Carly are very different people, having walked through the fire of their pasts into a new life together.
