“They don’t call him Jackpot for nothing.

Jack has always beat the odds… at least until now. When he was attacked by a werewolf, vampires saved him. When he got tired of living the vampire life, another werewolf attack freed him, making him human again. Now Jack just wants to live a normal life, but what’s normal about a hunter girlfriend, a brother who wants to stake him to be on the safe side, and a head werewolf building an army to rule the world?

Jack gets caught between his old friends and new, hunters and vampires. He wants to stay loyal to both, wants to protect everyone. Unfortunately, both sides are determined to kill the other. In the end, he’ll have to make a choice.”

Now, I know the cover doesn’t say much but this book is really good. Let’s not judge a book by its cover. The storyline of the book is great! I really fell into the storyline, especially with learning about the past about Jack and his future with Silver.

Let me first off say that I adore books that have not only a great plot line, but a great back round or history.  I really like how the reader was able to devour each part of this vampire/werewolf history little by little. Secrets were discovered, and others were made. The diary that foretold all of the history made the story much more juicier. As the reader gets more into the history of the story, you see its profound affect on the future and the characters. The characters were another part of this story that was hit spot on. I like how the characters went through many changes. You saw them not only grow but adapt.

The love interest in this story, I liked. I like how Silver and Jack’s future were intertwined. I like how easily they fell into ease with each other. But what really got me by the heart was Jack. I know he made some tough choices, but it showed his love for her. 


Vampires Rule is a dark book filled with a lost history discovered, new secrets revealed, and a future that will unravel your mind. I can’t wait to read the next book and see what the future holds for Jack and Silver!


 I give it 4 BITES!



Happy Reading!

    I most likely would have passed on this one based on the cover, but I’m such a big fan of vampire stories so this one now has my interest. I’m especially curious how werewolves can free vampires of their vampirism:) Nice review Savy!

    I definitely understand where you’re coming from about covers — sometimes, they just really do not do the book the justice that it deserves!

    Great review, Savy!

    I haven’t heard about this. Sounds very interesting. I like books where history is laid out slowly – not too slowly but not in one big chunk either.

  6. I’m not a fan of that cover either but hm… I’m curious now! Thanks!
