Alongside his hellhound brethren, Venge Leidolf was summoned to start the Wild Hunt anew. But in this dreaded pursuit of souls, Venge sought to free himself from his infernal bondage--by claiming the heart of a fierce Valkyrie.... Geysa never questioned the alluring gifts that set her apart from the other Valkyries, or her hatred of hellhounds--until Venge fell under her spell. Drawing the alpha hellhound so close made Geysa doubt her every instinct. To stop the Hunt, the two blood-born enemies would need to cast aside old vows and allegiances. Only then could no one question the strength of their union....
Lori Devoti's Wild Hunt was a fantastic read! I read the first one in the series, Unbound and it was good too. This one is even better! I really liked how the hero took to the heroine immediately. Great chemistry between them! I really liked the hero, Venge! This is a different paranormal read because it doesn't star vampires and werewolves, it stars hellhounds. It is a very refreshing paranormal romance read! 5 stars!
Hellhounds and Valkyries and Shifters - oh my!

Romeo and Juliet thought they had problems... Hellhounds and Valkyries are born enemies - and that's without the complications of the stolen Horn of the Wild Hunt they are both sworn to capture, the revenge they are sworn to accomplish... And did I mention their relatives? An excellent entry in a series placed in a complex and fascinating world. Part of a series: #1 Unbound #2 Guardian's Keep #3 Wild Hunt
superb romantic fantasy

Hellhound Venge Leidolf knows the right time to start the wild hunt is now. He or his brethren cannot stop its call. Geysa the Valkyrie knows her gift of allure makes her different from her warrior sisters. She and Venge have in common a need to avenge a wrong. When Venge and Geysa meet, they, in spite of being natural enemies, are attracted to one another. They know their species' instinct is to kill the other, but they desire one another. Each puts aside the thirst to kill to team up in search of the horn that proclaims the ErlKing's wild hunt to prevent it from calling the death, mayhem and destruction that automatically comes when it sounds. The latest WILD HUNT saga (see UNBOUND and GUARDIAN'S KEEP) is a superb romantic fantasy in which star-crossed lovers either must kill the other as it's in their DNA imprint or let love lead them elsewhere. Venge and Geysa know they have quests to fulfill and that desire, attraction and that cursed L word are not convenient at this time and between their respective heritages at any time. Fans will relish this entry while newcomers will quickly become devotees of this excellent fantasist. Harriet Klausner
Great Nocturne

Venge Leidolf is a hellhound who is consumed with finding the horn that the ErlKing had used to control the hellhounds. He is driven by revenge to find the horn and is determined to let nothing stand in his way. When he follows the call of the horn, he encounters Geysa, a Valkyrie and is immediately drawn to her. Geysa and her sister Valkyries are equally determined to find the horn and she instructed to get close to Venge in order to find the horn. The attraction between Venge and Geysa is undeniable and even though they are enemies they can't resist giving into their passion. As they pursue the elusive horn, strong wills collide and in the end they must overcome many obstacles that stand in the way of their love. Ms. Devoti does an excellent job of world building and provides a unique cast of characters that hold the interest of the reader. I was intrigued to know more about hellhounds, Valkyries and the Norn. I thoroughly enjoyed Venge and Geysa's story and look forward to Ms. Devoti's next books. Wild Hunt is the third book in Lori Devoti's Unbound series. Preceding books are Unbound and Guardian's Keep.
