I fell for Jack Gordon a little over a year ago when I read Floor Time by Liz Crowe.  I then proceeded to read the next 6 novels in the Stewart Realty series.  And every single one, whether or not directly about Jack, made me realize how he is truly the enbodiment of the alpha male and how addictive he has become.House Rules is the perfect novella that gives the reader the "backstory" of how Jack Gordon became the irresistable dominant man we have all grown to love.Liz Crowe once again gives us a well written book that, although obviously shorter than her standard novels, does not skimp on the details nor the emotions her work brings out in the reader.We discover how and why Jack has become the man we all know and love and the struggles he endured while getting to his satisfying yet never dull life as he now knows it.  And we also get glimpses of other well beloved characters from this remarkable series which is a nice touch and a huge plus.I think I love Jack even a little bit more after reading House Rules because as much as there are times you want to pull your hair out and his, over some of the things he has done, especially with his tumultuous relationship with his Sara, you cannot help but feel real compassion for the guy.  He is an emotional, sexy, giving, loyal and beautiful man with a huge heart.  What could be any more wonderful than that for a book boyfriend? ;)I highly recommend this novella and the entire Stewart Realty series.  You will not be disappointed.  It will make you a Liz Crowe fan for life :)
