2) Heroine is engaged in a non-stereotypical profession (ex. Mercy Thompson or military or police.)
3) Heroine is non-WASP—since so many of them ARE—ex. (again) Mercy Thompson, since she is half N.A. So heroine is African American, Hispanic, N.A., East Indian, Oriental, Middle Eastern etc.
4) Heroine is the Paranormal in the relationship
5) Heroine is frumpy, shy, geeky, over-weight, scarred or is non-perfect appearing in some way.

Does being a hunter of the supernatural, saving mankind and stuff, suffice as a heroic profession???"
Thanks I'm a very fast reader so I love these challenges it makes me look for books I might not have considered reading.
Read through my books just wondering which book you were thinking about....

Question:
Does being a hunter of the supernatural, saving mankind and stuff, suffice as a heroic ..."
I was thinking about reading The Hunter by Theresa Meyers for the challenge for number 1 about him! Seems like an interesting book!
