***Action, adventure, and second-chance romance are on the books for these two in the eleventh installment in the best-selling SCVC Taskforce Romantic Suspense Series!She’s on the run, and he’s tasked with bringing her in…dead or alive.Undercover FBI agent Samantha Rosenthal is on the run. A fugitive wanted for a terrorist act she didn’t commit, she has no idea who set her up, and the one person … and the one person she still trusts is her ex, sexy Joseph Cahill. The problem? He’s the bounty hunter assigned to bring her in.
Joe knows everything about Sam—the way she talks in her sleep, how her damn fine body responds to his, her extreme intelligence and cunning street smarts. This apprehension should be a slam dunk. But it’s been seven long months since he’s seen her, held her, kissed her. Now she’s on the run from Homeland, the FBI, and the SCVC Taskforce. If he doesn’t hunt her down, someone else will…and they’ll use deadly force.
Laying her heart on the line, Sam has no choice but to ally with Joe to uncover a conspiracy that will clear her name but rock the FBI. Risking everything, Joe puts his career, as well as his freedom, in jeopardy, and dives head—and heart—into bringing Sam home alive.

Pick a day where you have nothing to do when you read this one trust me. I couldn’t put this one down. I just started reading in the morning looked up to see it was the afternoon. This book is so good. I was instantly sucked into the story. I loved Sam and Joe so much. It’s a second chance for them. I’m not gonna lie I was worried about a couple characters, but I shouldn’t have worried because Misty wouldn’t let me down. I loved trying to figure it out along with the characters. The action kept me on the edge of my seat. This is a must read!!
With Sam on the run trying to prove her innocence and Joe, her ex, the only one who is in a position to bring her in, Misty Evans weaves a story that has action, suspense, and a great second chance romance that also features a lovable pup and some favorites from other books in the series.
It was so easy to fall right in step with Sam as she fights to clear her name. She’s self-reliant and has some mad skills, but she also knows that she needs some help. Unfortunately, the only person she trusts is Joe, her ex-fiance who is now a bounty hunter, and recently hired to bring her in. I loved watching these two feel each other out, Sam trying to figure out if she can trust that Joe is on her side, Joe trying to make Sam know she is safe with him – even if he uses their attraction to help him get his way! These two were perfectly paired and are easily one of my favorite couples from this series!
I love how Misty Evans always knows how to bring in characters to help tell her stories. From the inclusion of Jack-Jack, Sam’s dog who steals some of the scenes, to Sam’s mother, who doesn’t have much time on the page but is essential to defining who Sam is, every character and scene plays a role and helps tell the story. Another favorite part of every book in any Misty Evans series is that you get to catch up with characters from previous books since they always play a role in how things turn out.
Although this is a part of a series is can easily be read as a stand-alone – and definitely belongs on anyone’s TBR that is looking for a fast-paced, action-packed suspense that also brings all the feels you would expect from a second chance romance.
I voluntarily reviewed a copy of this book I received from the author.
Sam is being hunted for a crime she didn’t commit. She goes to her ex for help and is a little upset that he would help those trying to find her. She feels that he knows her better than anyone and would know that she had nothing to do with the terrorist act. Joe can’t make up his mind whether Sam is guilty or not. Joe agrees to help her find out who is framing her. Their journey begins. A fast paced action story. A lot of twist and turns. Couldn’t put the book down. I love this series. Must read to find out what happens. I voluntarily read an arc of this book.
This book is going n my list of favorites. The action, the twists and turns in the story just kept me turning the pages.
The characters are very well developed. The scenes are described so well you can picture them in your mind. I love that Sam is such a strong female protagonist, strong but also not such a badass that it is unbelievable. She has her soft side and her vulnerable side. Joe is one tough guy, but has a big soft spot for Sam. He has her back during everything and is man enough to let her do what she needs to do. No trying to force her to be who and what he thinks she should be. No trying to force her to do things his way all of the time. I love that this book has action all through it, has the mystery and also has the love story mixed in but not over powering the rest of the story.
This one is a keeper and one to share with friends that love a good mystery full of action and the bonus of a sweet love story mixed in.
Edge of your seat excitement matched with unforgettable characters make Deadly Bounty, 11th book, the perfect addition to Misty Evans’s SCVC Taskforce series! Fans will especially appreciate the bits that include old friends but both old and new readers will fall in love with Sam Rosenthal and Joe Cahill. Sam is an on-the-lam FBI agent and Joe is her ex-boyfriend and current fugitive apprehension agent who has been hired to find her. Needless to say, everyone is watching to see how that turns out! Touches of humor make this great fast-paced read even better.
I requested and received an ARC from the author because I love her books so much, but I also pre-ordered a copy because this is one of those series that I have to have my own complete set! Loved it!
LOVED this book! This is fast paced, romantic suspense at its best. Sam is an undercover FBI agent who suddenly finds herself on the run, with a bounty on her head, when she is accused of being a terrorist. Desperate to stay alive long enough to prove her innocence, she reaches out to Joe, her ex-fiance – and the bounty hunter tasked with bringing her in.
I love Sam and Joe’s relationship and they way they interacted. I especially liked Sam and how smart and resourceful she was. Their relationship added to the story and added dimension to their fight to identify who the true terrorist is.
Put this one at the top of your TBR list. This is one of my favorite series, and, if you enjoy the genre, will become a favorite of yours as well. The author is on my must read authors’ list.
Deadly Bounty is the eighth book in Misty Evans Southern California Violent Crimes Taskforce series. I’ve read all of the books in the series to date and they keep getting better and better. Samantha Rosenthal is on the run for a crime she didn’t commit. She trusts only one person her ex, Joseph Cahill, and knows he will help her get to the bottom of this conspiracy against her.
Pit an undercover FBI agent with a bounty hunter trying to seek justice and Deadly Bounty is one fast paced read. I loved touching base with several past characters in the series. This is a standalone book, but I suggest reading the other books in the series. I highly recommend reading Deadly Bounty and can’t wait for the next book in the series. I received an advance copy and chose to read and review it.
