4.0 out of 5 stars Hunter's Prey (Bloodhounds, book 2) Review March 6, 2012
Format:Kindle Edition
Having survived being forcefully turned into a a bloodhound and being imprisoned by vampires, Hunter is not looking forward to his first new moon as a free man because of the insatiable sexual appetite it brings. For three days he will be lost in a haze of carnal desires and the only woman he wants is the last one he'd ever want to hurt. Once a prostitute, Ophelia now manages a household of bloodhounds. She's finding her new job to be more demanding then she thought it would be and the mutual attraction with Hunter is not making it any easier. Neither desire anything permanent but after a mind blowing new moon spent together, Ophelia and Hunter realize that being with someone else is no longer an option.

Ophelia is one of my favorite type of heroines, a survivor. She has no shame in being a former prostitute. Ophelia had a less than idea upbringing and did what she had to do to make a living. Hunter is a great match for her because he never thinks to judge her on her former profession and is able to see the intelligent woman that others may overlook. In turn, Ophelia is a good fit for Hunter because he's so unsure of himself and his ability to be a functional bloodhound, a man made shapeshifter, and she's willing to do whatever it takes to help him.

Hunter was a wealthy and spoiled human before being turned into a bloodhound by vampires and then caged. That life is nothing more than a memory now as he tries to cope with his new life in the wild west town of Iron Creek. He attempts to ignore his feelings for Ophelia but there is no hiding from the overwhelming sexual drive the new moon brings and his beast will have only Ophelia. Hunter and Ophelia's time together during the new moon was undeniably hot and I was glad to see the chemistry between them went beyond the bedroom as Ophelia tries to help Hunter accept not only who he is but that even though he's a bloodhound, he can still be loved. I wouldn't call their relationship sweet and I think it all worked perfectly for them.

While Hunter and Ophelia's relationship is a big part of Hunter's Prey, there's a bit more going on. Bloodhounds Wilder and Archer, who we met in book one of the series, along with Hunter are trying to figure out how vampires have been able to get drugs into their border town. Also, the Guild, order that creates the bloodhounds, has sent two bloodhounds to find out what really happened to one of their best scientists after the events that occur in Wilder's Mate. I liked that these stories were intertwined with the romance of the book because it added some well written action and a bit of suspense into the mix that fit with the story.

This is the second release in Moira Rogers' Bloodhound series and I think the best so far. The action, danger and romance are all kicked up a notch and Ophelia and Hunter were fantastic lead characters. This series is supposed to fall in the steampunk genre and while there are some steampunk elements to the story, this felt more paranormal romance to me. Still, it was a highly enjoyable read and worth picking up.

4.0 out of 5 stars 4.5 Stars - So good! January 29, 2013
Format:Kindle Edition
The more I read from the Bloodhounds series, the more I enjoy them. They're this gritty blend of shapeshifter, old west, steampunk, and holy hot sex --and I am already jonesing for the next one.

This story features Hunter, the man turned into a Bloodhound against his will and kept caged and tortured by the vampires in Wilder's Mate. He is trying to aclimate himself to his new life, but he is having a hard time reconciling the man that he once was, to the beast that is now inside him. He is living with Wilder, Satira, Nate, and Ophelia --and he is coming on his first new moon where he is not locked behind bars.

It's Ophelia who he wants to slake his lust upon during those three days of burning need, but he fights it. He is afraid he'll hurt her. But when the time comes, his beast will accept no other.

Thankfully, Hunter's feelings are not one sided. Ophelia wants him too and only fears that the man in him doesn't want her as much as the Bloodhound does. The story follows their path to mating, as Archer and Wilder search out a new vampire threat. Oh --and some guys from the Guild come sniffing around to check out Hunter and Nate.

It absolutely must be said that the sex in these books hits all of my happy buttons. It's just the right blend of dirty and needy and passionate without crossing the line into eye-rolling. The sexual element of Hunter and Ophelia's relationship is awesome, but I also really liked their tentative romance as well. They both have issues that make them fear rejection from the other, but I love that it's handled honestly between them.

There is action and violence and an interesting plot to go along with the loving too. There is also a wealth of fleshed out secondary characters which give depth to the world and plant the seeds for future stories. It's just cool all over. You should definitely check this series out.

Rating: B+

5.0 out of 5 stars Best of the series October 19, 2012

If you enjoyed the first two Bloodhounds novels, you'll enjoy this one even more. Action and storytelling are as good as the sparks that fly between the main characters.
