Publisher Description
Vampires in Chicago!
You'd think headlines like that would have provoked the fine citizens of the Windy City to take up arms against us bloodsucking fiends. Instead, ten months later, we're enjoying a celebrity status reserved for the Hollywood elite—fending off paparazzi only slightly less dangerous than cross- and stake-wielding slayers. Don't get me wrong. Joe Public isn't exactly thrilled to be living side-by-side with the undead, but at least they haven't stormed the castle...yet.
All that will change once they learn about the Raves—mass feeding parties where vampires round up humans like cattle and drink themselves silly. Most civilized vampires frown on this behavior—but that doesn't make good copy for a first-time reporter looking to impress his high-society family.
So now my "master"—the centuries-old yet gorgeously well-preserved Ethan Sullivan—wants me to reconnect with my own upper-class family and act as liaison between humans and vampires...and keep the more unsavory aspects of our existence out of the media. But someone doesn't want people and vamps to play nicey-nice—someone with an ancient grudge.

"A low 4 out of 5 stars. Merit moves into the House, learns more about being a Guard, a little about other house vampires, while trying to separate herself from her more predatory Vampire (Mr. Hyde-like) half, which she continually holds back during all transgressions. Merit has been requested to get back into her estranged fathers good graces (And his powerful connections), for the sake of the house and to find out why someone is trying to create discord amongst the vampires. I really enjoy the characters and cannot wait to see how they develop. The author teases us with who Merit should be with, Ethan or Morgan, but all in all, this story looks more like it is setting up the pieces for a bigger event about to unfold in the upcoming novels. I was not too fond of the story editing. Too many spelling & punctuation mistakes!"

" While I'm not thrilled about the rift that seems to be growing between Merit and Mal, I liked the character development. But, I'm still confused...why is Merit called that? "
— Amy, 12/22/2013 -
" This series is getting better as the characters evolve, but at this point things are not complex enough to force me to think when I read. Wish that were different as the potential is there for more... "
— Rebecka, 12/8/2013 -
" A bit improved over the first book, and I'm definitely hooked on the series. But I still keep running into stupid logic and grammar problems that should have been resolved in the editing process. Grr. "
— Elena, 10/13/2013 -
" Much better than the first book, although didn't really liked it either. Hope it gets better as Merit's adventures continue. "

" Another excellent book! I'm learning to love Merit. "
— Jackie, 7/18/2013 -
" I love these books. They are sexy, sassy and amazingly fun. The story is strong and the characters are even more so. I recommend this to anyone loving the vampire books but remember it has swearing, sex and of course violence. All the good things :) "

" The green-eye trend continues and frankly, it's getting a little distracting... "
— Julie, 6/30/2011 -
" The first book was 90% welcome-to-vampirehood-here-are-all-your-awesome-powers, and 10% people-getting-angry-at-each-other-for-no-terribly-good-reason.<br/><br/>This book is 10% awesome powers and 90% angry for no good reason. "
— Dan, 6/23/2011 -

— Heather, 6/20/2011 -
" sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo good!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i loved it and couldn't stop reading it! "
— Victoria, 6/19/2011 -
" I liked this book but the main character kind of pissed me off a lot. She had a great thing going with Morgan and than totally dumped him for Ethan. Ethan couldn't make up his mind about her and would like her and then not like her and it was just like honestly make up your mind already!!! "
— Breanna, 6/7/2011 -
" Amazing book. Read it in one afternoon/evening. "
