Rated it
Since the night of her
brutal attack and unwilling transformation to vampire, Merit’s stood as
Sentinel and protector of Chicago’s Cadogan House. She's saved the Windy
City from the forces of darkness time and again with her liege and
lover, Ethan Sullivan, by her side.
When the House is infiltrated and Merit is attacked by a vampire seemingly under the sway of dark magic, Merit and Ethan realize the danger is closer than they could have ever imagined. As a malign sorcery spreads throughout the city, Merit must go to war against supernatural powers beyond her comprehension. It’s her last chance to save everything—and everyone—she loves.

“Forever.”
Enter the final chapter to the epic journey we have been taken on
with The Chicagoland Vampires...
When
we left Ethan and Merit, they were preparing for their nuptials and
forever loving one another. The night before the big “night”
Merit is attacked by a crazed vampire in her own home. This is no
ordinary or small incident, and it opens up an old problem to the
soon to be newlyweds. Instead of happily ever after, Ethan and Merit
are about to face a big fight that is threatening to destroy Chicago
and all it's residents. Magic is a fickle bitch and Mallory, along
with her cute as ever hubby Catcher, come charging in for the rescue.
What better way to close out this series than to have Merit fight
side by side with her witch bestie Mallory? As Cadogan House prepares
for battle, they are pleasantly surprised who comes out of the wood
work to help. All the while, Ethan and Merit struggle with Gabriel's
vision of them baring a child. Without a gleam of hope of that ever
happening, they must face the reality that the prophecy Gabriel once
told them would never come to pass, and that they may not survive
this new threat.
Coming
in knowing this was going to be the last book, every sentimental
scene I read had me in tears. Sharing the special moments between
friends, and lovers, ones that I will never read about anymore felt
like home but had me on edge knowing we were going to part ways. The
story line and plot were well done with wrapping up the series, the
ending fell flat for me as far the battle. The build up to the
challenge was so gripping but then it just ended with a poof instead
of a BANG! But I do have to say the epilogue was tremendously
adorable and satisfying, which may have made up for the slightly
disappointing ending.
