Is there a distinction between "hero" and "heroine" in Swedish, or is hjälte used for both genders?
You can say hjältinna if you really want a feminine form, but my impression is that it's used less in Swedish than in English. In this context it would sound a bit odd to me, but if you're talking about the heroine of a book, hjältinna would be ok (though I'd still prefer hjälte in most if not all contexts).
