Wilder's Mate
Wilder's Mate is a blend of steampunk, urban fantasy, western, mystery, romance, and erotica. The two ladies who write as Moira Rogers have stirred and mixed the ingredients together to make an intriguing story.

Wilder's Mate
It was action packed, the sex scenes were hot, and the characters were very easy to connect with.

All and all another brilliant read by the ladies of Moira Rogers that left me wanting to read more about these sexy Bloodhounds and the women who are their destiny.

Wilder's Mate was my 1st Steampunk read and I have to say that I liked that aspect of it a lot more than I thought I would.

Wilder's Mate
Everything worked for me, the setting, the characters, the plot. Damn, I really fell under the spell of this book. Wilder makes the book perfect. I cannot wait for more books in this series.

Wilder's Mate
If you're new to steampunk I think this would be a perfect starting point if you like any of the other elements (vampires, wild west) because it's not too heavily bogged down with mechanical things.

I really don't think I can emphasize enough how much I enjoyed this book (both times I read it!). The worldbuilding is fantastic. The characters are well rounded. The bad guys are bad. I'm expecting good things from this series.

It's very different than anything I've read, setting-wise, and I like it!

Wilder's Mate
I sat down to read this book and didn't really do much else for the rest of the day. It has action, romance, science fiction, horror...there's a little bit of every genre squished into this story. But it's hella fun to read.
- Amber, Buried By Books
Wilder's Mate
It's like Rogers can bring together many different themes, and create the perfect storm of romance, action, and adventure every single time they write a story.

Wilder's Mate
I enjoyed the trip with Satira and Wilder, and liked watching the learning experience they both went through. The characters in this are not like any I have read, and it was a fresh, new read.
- Holly, Long and Short Reviews
Wilder's Mate
Feral. Wilder's Mate by writing team Moira Rogers is many things, but I think feral sums it up nicely. Using the word feral along with other characteristics works too. Like: Feral Romance, Feral Western, Feral Steampunk. You get my point. Even the cover is Feral (yes, with a capital F)!
- Amanda, Imagination Run Amok
Wilder's Mate
Moira Rogers created a new, breathtaking world in her new series that started with WILDER'S MATE. Full of action, hot passion, a strong, gutsy heroine and a sexy, dangerous hero, WILDER'S MATE didn't disappoint.
- Ashia, The Romance Reviews
No one knows when the first vampire came to the United States, but they all remember when their numbers grew so vast that the United States decided to fight back. In 1823 the Bloodhound Guild was founded, turning out warriors blessed with the strength to battle their enemy and the curse of being somewhat less than human.
Sixty years has given the Guild plenty of time to become a fixture in the untamed west. The bloodhounds are all that protect the border territories from the vampires who make the Deadlands their home. It's a dirty job, but what do you expect from a man who's more than a little monster?
The Genre
The Bloodhounds series is a bit different from many of the other stories you might find in Moira Rogers' backlist.
For one thing, they're short category length novels, with a very tight focus on the hero and heroine. They're also fairly steamy!
As for genre--paranormal romance, at their heart, albeit paranormal romance set in an alternate wild west past. They've also got steampunk themes.
To sum up: mad scientists, inventors, steam-powered technology, a little magic, a lot of passion, an adventure and a happy ending. If you're on board with those, give the stories a try!
The Books
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.

A short story set between Wilder's Mate and Hunter's Prey.
Merrick Wood is a wild man--literally. For six decades he's stalked the Rocky Mountains as a bloodhound, fighting a losing battle against the vampires who have taken over most of the American frontier. He's sure he's seen it all, until an airship crash leaves him caught behind enemy lines with a concussion and a mate he doesn't remember taking.
Paralee Colton is a wild woman. She enjoys her freedom and makes a good living flying over the Deadlands. Until, that is, bloodsuckers shoot down her ship, and she's forced to deal with an irritatingly attractive man who isn't a man at all.
Trapped together in the wilderness, Merrick and Paralee must fight to find a safe camp before the new moon drags Merrick into three days of sexual madness. But as enticing as Paralee finds the bloodhound, she doesn't realize the stakes of their courtship game.
Getting out of the Deadlands is only half of Merrick's battle for survival. If he can't convince Paralee to stay with him, he'll follow the footsteps of every bloodhound who's ever lost a mate--straight into the grave.

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.
