RATING 4.5 SMEXI ALPHA STARS!!!!
Book Blurb : Taken From Goodreads

When mechanic and shapeshifter Mercy Thompson attempts to return a powerful Fae book she'd previously borrowed in an act of desperation, she finds the bookstore locked up and closed down. It seems the book contains secret knowledge-and the Fae will do just about anything to keep it out of the wrong hands. And if that doesn't take enough of Mercy's attention, her friend Samuel is struggling with his wolf side-leaving Mercy to cover for him, lest his own father declare Sam's life forfeit. All in all, Mercy has had better days. And if she isn't careful, she might not have many more to live...

BOOK REVIEW:

Samuel, Samuel, Samuel...sigh...this book is tough for him. He made me very sad when I understood his words to Mercy. I was like don't you dare.

The Pack , or somebody is messing with Mercy's brain 'mojo' , in more ways than one. She needs to find out what is going on and sort it out. Lordy I was like..aaaggghhh!!!  when the bowling ball went flying. I wondered if yelling 'foouuurrrr', would have helped...lol!!!

Adam is still just this rock of a guy for Mercy. They fit like a glove.
The insight Mercy gets into Adam's head was gorgeous. It said alot to the reader. The visual of a certain scene for Adam and Ben was making me light headed. I was telling myself not to think about it...lol! But Patricia wrote it very graphically. All I was thinking is you will have readers fainting....hee..hee. At one stage Adam had me catching my breath with his pained cry. I've had a friend in a similar situation and she can vouch ,  excrutiating.

Mercy really takes charge and deals with the Pack and shows everybody what she is made of, strength and determination. She will not back down, it's not in her nature. WWF werewolf style is not for the faint hearted either. Patricia was making me feel 'woozy' with all the bone snapping etc. I was yelling , 'yield' , for my sake. Paul needs a good slap for all this challenging he does. Give it a rest, buddy.

New characters come in to play, leading me to believe there is happiness at the end of the rainbow for Samuel. I do hope so.

The little 'boomerang ' is back...the walking stick. A book is causing trouble and mayhem in Silver Borne and people are going missing and need to be found. I'm hoping Jesse has found herself a boyfriend, if Adam can let go of his little girl. Which I doubt. I'm thinking she will be a granny before he will be able to deal with boyfriend material. Jesse ages , Adam doesn't ...interesting.*waggles eyebrows*. I love this book cover. It's a softer looking Mercy, prettier. How I envision her when I read her.

FAVE QUOTES:

"Honey is eye candy, " said Ben apologetically. "You're .... just you."
"Mine, " said Adam, edging between Heart and me.
"Mine is what she is."

"That is the most romantic thing I have ever heard you say," Bran said.  "Be careful, Adam, or you'll turn her into a real girl."

His nostrils flared, like a stallion scenting a mare. His hands dropped to my coat, and ripped it down the back and threw it on the floor before backing away from me.
