Books like Troublemaker by Linda Howard
Isabeau “Bo” Maran commands a small West Virginia police department in a remote mountain town, maintaining order with a small team, a loyal dog and a low‑budget life.
When Morgan Yancy, the charismatic leader of an elite paramilitary squad, is almost killed in an ambush, Bo is assigned to protect him. Morgan’s focus on duty clashes with Bo’s pacifist approach, and their time together is fraught with danger and mutual attraction.
Forced into a secluded refuge, Morgan must confront a deadly threat while caring for a housemate he’s protecting. The tension between their professional roles and the growing tension in their personal dynamic keeps both men and women forces on edge.
