Review: Hunter's Prey by Moira Rogers

Hunter's Prey
(Bloodhounds #2)

Upcoming Release Dates: March 06, 2012 (ebook)

Wilder's Mate & Hunter's Prey will be combined into one print volume. See the print collection for more details.
Ophelia retired from life as a prostitute, but her new position is even more complicated. Managing the bloodhound manor in Iron Creek is difficult and time-consuming, a job she enjoys less with each passing day. Then there's her inconvenient attraction to Hunter. The newly turned hound seems eager to enjoy her company, but wary of anything more intimate.

Having survived the violence of his first full moon out of a cage, Hunter isn't looking forward to his first new moon. Ophelia offers to be the woman who sates his needs during the three long days of sexual fury, but he can't abide the thought of hurting her in a state of mindless lust. Especially since she longs to settle into a respectable life, and his needs are anything but respectable.

Their mutual goal is simple: avoid entanglements. It's a solid plan, at least until a vampire drug lord and a couple of nosy Guild representatives force them to work together to defend their friends and everything they hold dear--including each other.

Warning: Contains a mostly feral, vampire-hunting hero and a tough survivor of a heroine whose retired-hooker heart is more steel than gold. Also included: dangerous frontier intrigue, fancy brothels, mad-scientist weapons and a good dose of wicked loving in an alternate Wild West.

I obtained the above information from Ms. Moira's website.

If you come to the Lair often you will know that I am a fan of Ms. Moira's creative worlds. She creates worlds which you can lose yourself in and escape into the fantasy of a story so well told that you might actually think you are in it. Her stories will move you, shake you, entice you, and make you desire more. Her writing has developed stories that will make you happy, then sad only to bring you out to intrigue you. Her stories will draw the suspense out, brings the needs of characters to a boiling point. She wraps you around the world she creates with just words but will leave you breathless.

This story is no exception. Ms. Moira has created this world of Bloodhounds that will make you blood run hot and your dreams even hotter. Their world will rock you with the inventions, the action and the hot freaking, sexy alpha men!

Hunter is new to the lifestyle of the bloodhound world... New to the things that make him what is he. But at the same time, lost to a past of what once was... Hunter really struck me because he really wore his heart on his sleeve; although, I'm sure If you asked him, he would not agree with me, lol. On the outside, he is all tough and he-man... But on the inside... He is a big teddy bear with a hellva possessive streak. And that has to do with one woman.... The one that could be the death of him...

Ophelia, now she is one strong woman. She manages a home for the bloodhounds. Her past may color other peoples thoughts about her but she really doesn't care. Her past was a hard life, most woman would cringe at having to live it. But she did what she had to do to survive and for that I admire her and her strength. But wanting to leave the manor and being on her own has always had it's appeal to her until a Bloodhound named Hunter came to the manor and took her world by storm.

This is a story about two people who feel a little lost in the world in which has not had given them to many shining moments. In fact, life has dealt both of them some crappy hands. But its what they have done with those hands that has made them who they are today. Two individuals that come together to give you one hellva story. These two have given Ms. Moira a run for her money to write. They are both stubborn and determined to make it on their own in this world. Which only makes their tale so worth the ride.

Ms. Moria, these stories just keep getting better, hotter and more dangerous. The men are bad asses to the bone and make for some delicious lovers! The woman are just as bad, they know how to take care of themselves but know how to give so their men feel wanted... and needed. The combination of characters in this series is quite intriguing and the missions sometimes turn deadly... I will say, Wilder still makes my heart beat... but damnit if these men are not giving him a run for his money! Awesome job Ms. Moira... keep these men coming!!!

And remember... Always keep it Dirty, Smutty & Hussy!
