Come to think of it, maybe there is "hardboiled noir" where characters are tough and the stories are noir. And maybe there's also plain old noir...
 
************ I agree that noir can be hardboiled or not. Woolrich's I MARRIED A DEAD MAN isn't hardboiled but still weighs in as noir.

And welcome to the group, Jason. Your books are often discussed here. I recently got my first introduction to your writing through TOUGH LUCK.

You mention Vicki Hendricks's books. I recently read her IGUANA LOVE and thought it was great. Noir in all its self-destructive glory.
