Chicagoland Spring Fling Giveaway & Exclusive House Rules Cover Reveal
I am so excited to be participating in Chloe Neill's first annual Chicagoland Vampires Spring Fling Blog tour! Not only do I have an interesting factoid about Lindsey and great giveaways for you guys, but I am also hosting the exclusive cover art and cover copy reveal of House Rules, Chicagoland Vampires #7. So exciting!!!
About the Chicagoland Vampires Novels: Turned into a vampire against her will, twenty-eight-year-old Merit, the heroine of Chloe Neill’s New York Times bestselling series, found her way into the dark circle of Chicago’s vampire underground, where she learned there was more to supernaturals than met the eye—and more supernaturals than the public ever imagined. The sixth book in the series, BITING COLD, will be released on August 7, 2012.
Why I Love These Books: I'm a crazy fan of this series. It's hard to put into words just how much I love these books. The cast of characters is incredibly awesome, and I love the many different dynamics going on between them. All of the emotions in these books are so real that you feel them right along with the characters, from the highest highs to the lowest lows.
When asked what my favorite book in the series is, I would hands down say Biting Cold. I was lucky enough to receive an ARC and completely devoured it one setting. Trust me when I say that you guys will love it. But, as far as the already published books in this series go, my favorite one is Drink Deep. It would be easy for me to say that is because of the very ending events, but honestly that wouldn't be the truth. Yes those events made me insanely happy, but they were only such a small part of the book. What makes Drink Deep my favorite is because this is where Merit really started to come into her own as a vampire and shine. She's broken out of her shell to become something truly amazing, and I just loved seeing all that come to fruition. In fact, I'll be giving away a signed copy of Drink Deep as well as other goodies courtesy of Chloe later on in the post, so keep reading!
Did you Know?: Lindsey, a Cadogan House guard and Merit’s closest vampire girlfriend, has difficulty discriminating between certain colors. That’s why her room in Cadogan House is insanely colorful.
In case you'd like to see what I thought of each book (and a whole lot of fan girl gushing) here's links to my reviews:
Now for the moment you guys have been waiting for, I give you the cover art and cover copy reveal of House Rules!
In a city full of vampires, trouble never sleeps.
At the tender age of 27, 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 started with two . . . Two rogues vanishing without a trace. Someone is targeting Chicago’s vampires, and anyone could be next. With their house in peril, Merit and her Master, the 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.
Isn't is gorgeous? I just absolutely love how badass Merit looks. The red in her shirt and title really makes it pop! And that description!! I'm even more excited for House Rules. February cannot get here soon enough!!

Chloe Neill is the New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of the Chicagoland Vampires and Dark Elite series.
She was born and raised in the South, but now makes her home in the Midwest–just close enough to Cadogan House and St. Sophia’s to keep an eye on things. When not transcribing Merit’s and Lily’s adventures, she bakes, works, and scours the Internet for good recipes and great graphic design. Chloe also maintains her sanity by spending time with her boys–her favorite landscape photographer/husband and their dogs, Baxter and Scout. (Both she and the photographer understand the dogs are in charge.)
Chloe is represented by Lucienne Diver of The Knight Agency. Chloe is a member of the Science Fiction & Fantasy Writers of America.
