In book seven of the Chicagoland Vampires series, Chloe
Neill shows the growth and development of her kickass sword-
wielding vampire heroine, Merit. Succumbing to a boatload
of obstacles hasn't deterred her from the one thing she
wants most -- her Master, Ethan Sullivan. In HOUSE RULES,
Merit and Ethan come together in a relationship that is
just beginning to bloom, but other problems seem to be
shouting for attention at the moment.
When two Rogues have gone missing, it is up to Merit and
Ethan to locate Oliver and Eve before their foe targets
more vampires in Chicago. Time is running out as tensions
rise and a few twists along the way make for an interesting
ride for Merit and Ethan.
I enjoyed HOUSE RULES more than its predecessor mostly
because I felt that Neill really made some progress with
the plot and the relationships that readers are most
looking forward to in this book. It felt more solid, moving
forward as the character show some growth and I enjoyed the
pacing of this book more than the last one.
HOUSE RULES brought the series back on track for me and I
think readers will be excited to see the sparkle that comes
along with this series that we have missed as of late.
"At the tender age of twenty-seven, Merit became a
sword-wielding vampire. Since then, she's become the
protector of her House, watched Chicago nearly burn to the
ground, and seen her Master fall and rise. Now she'll see
her mettle--and her metal--tested like never before. It
starts when two Rogues vanish without a trace. Someone is
targeting Chicago's vampires, and anyone could be next. With
their House in peril, Merit and her Master, centuries-old
Ethan Sullivan, must race to stop the disappearances. But as
they untangle a web of secret alliances and ancient evils,
they realize their foe is more familiar, and more powerful,
than they could have ever imagined"--
