Think a vampire-hunting bloodhound is dangerous? Try threatening his woman.

Bloodhounds, Book 1

Wilder Harding is a bloodhound, created by the Guild to hunt down and kill vampires on America's frontier. His enhanced abilities come with a high price: on the full moon, he becomes capable of savagery beyond telling, while the new moon brings a sexual hunger that borders on madness.

Rescuing a weapons inventor from undead kidnappers is just another assignment, though one with an added complication—keeping his hands off the man's pretty young apprentice, who insists on tagging along.

At odds with polite society, Satira's only constant has been the aging weapons inventor who treats her like a daughter. She isn't going to trust Wilder with Nathaniel's life, not when the Guild might decide the old man isn't worth saving. Besides, if there's one thing she's learned, it's that brains are more important than brawn.

As the search stretches far longer than Wilder planned, he finds himself fighting against time. If Satira is still at his side when the new moon comes, nothing will stop him from claiming her. Worse, she seems all too willing. If their passion unlocks the beast inside, no one will be safe. Not even the man they're fighting to save.

Warning: This book contains a crude, gun-slinging, vampire-hunting hero who howls at the full moon and a smart, stubborn heroine who invents mad-scientist weapons. Also included: wild frontier adventures, brothels, danger, betrayal and a good dose of wicked loving in an alternate Wild West.

I started to give this novel four stars, thought about it, and it's a five. Solid world-building. Compelling characters. Good plot. Not only did I want to know what happened, I'll read more in the series.

You don't get better than that. ( )

I loved this story! It was a refreshing take on vampires and vampire hunting, mixed in with a gorgeous slow burn warm up in romance. Adventure meeting sexiness works in this story, which held me captive from start to finish. Is this a vampire story? No. Those creatures are only a small contribution to the overall adventure that is told on these pages. The highlight is the main two characters and their interaction with one another, whilst getting to know different aspects of themselves at the same time.

Definitely one to read and enjoy, and I will definitely be seeking out more by this author to indulge in. Great stuff! ( )

A quick read. Not very steam punk. Yes, they use contraptions instead of magic but very little time is spent on said contraptions or anything steam punk like. More focus is on the paranormal aspects - the hounds (werewolves), ghouls and vampires.

This is basically a quick-y paranormal romance. Pretty enjoyable. Liked the main characters and was rooting for them. The sex scenes are nothing new but not badly written. Overall I enjoyed it and will likely pick up the next due to the low price. ( )

For me this was a DNF because I disliked the combination of paranormal and the wild west. Other readers may well like this. ( )

This book is an interesting combination of steam-punk, western, and paranormal romance. A little rocky in places due to world building, but overall a pretty enjoyable read. I'll be looking forward to the next installment. ( )
