Synopsis
Cadogan house has taken a risky decision; they are now going through a divorce of sorts. Now turning every rock and legal contract they have in hopes they don’t get screwed over. They will find allies and foes in people they may have never expected.
While some bridges burn others are being mended, some of the relationships have turned shaky they are now finding their balance in this post-“hard bitten” edition of Chicagoland Vampires.
If the separation stress wasn’t enough there is a new sort of terror in town, two rouge vampires have gone missing, the city isn’t going to help find them and vampires wouldn’t trust them with the job. So it is up to our favorite fanged duo to check things up before this spreads like wild fire.
Review
“House Rules” is a book in equal parts full of political shenanigans, mystery and action. After the Cadogan vampires decided to take a stand and fight for what they think is the right move for the house they are preparing to face the consequences of their actions trying to get away with it with alive and take in as little damage as possible.
I gotta tell you guys I really enjoyed this book, especially all the Jeff parts in it, why? Well let’s say that our favorite and extremely alpha vamp is taken and I have no intentions of messing that relationship even if its fictional and all I have to do is leave my imagination run wild, I like that relationship so much I wouldn’t dare mess with it not even a little. Also Jeff seems to be getting a bigger role on this series, I love that nerdy shifter he is as entertaining and he is charismatic, and has proven himself time and time again.

I gotta tell you guys I really enjoyed this book, especially all the Jeff parts in it, why? Well let’s say that our favorite and extremely alpha vamp is taken and I have no intentions of messing that relationship even if its fictional and all I have to do is leave my imagination run wild, I like that relationship so much I wouldn’t dare mess with it not even a little.  It is both his confidence and arrogance part of what makes us love him for who he is.
Going back to Jeff, he seems to be getting a bigger role on this series, I love that nerdy shifter he is as entertaining and he is charismatic, and has proven himself time and time again, I can't wait to see how his character and story evolves.
Chicagoland hotties aside (and if you are wondering those are just two of that long list) this books is playing more with the mystery, this time I was 100% hooked I wanted to know the person behind the horrible crimes that are now hunting Chicago, I wanted to know how this person did it and what kind of motives she/he might have.
I can never ever ever fault this series or any of its character about being one dimensional, nor can I say it lacks on the entertainment department Chloe Neill’s characters have a life of their own, you see them grow before your eyes, learn from their mistakes and face the dangers upon them the best way they can.
This was a great book that is part of an exceptional series, if by any chance you want to find redemption on vampires because a book or movie rubbed you the wrong way and you want a story with some romance, tons of action, engaging characters that learn and evolve then give Chicagoland vampires a chance I doubt you will regret it.
