Publisher's summary

You must fall before you can rise...

Former Delta Force Operator. Scarred inside and out.

In the military, Mercy had seen and done things most people could never imagine. Now working for In the Shadows Security, dangerous jobs are his specialty, the more difficult the better... until his boss assigns him to protect a spoiled, rich woman who never shuts the h*ll up. He has two ways to stop her running mouth, but either could get him fired.
However, first impressions can be deceiving, and underestimating this woman is a mistake Mercy never intended to make. One that might not only threaten his job but the carefully built barriers he’s surrounded himself with.

Witness to a horrific crime, Parris must leave Vegas immediately. After her best friend hires a professional to get her out of Nevada and keep her safe, she discovers there’s more to this emotionally crippled “bodyguard” than meets the eye. As a therapist, Mercy’s a challenge Parris can’t ignore, even when his walls seem too high to breach.
In the end, will Mercy not only be able to keep her safe but allow her to save him? Or will he let the woman who’s become his addiction simply walk away?

Note: Mercy is the first book of the Guts & Glory series, a six-book spin-off from my Dirty Angels MC series. While it’s recommended to listen to both series in order, each book can be enjoyed as a stand-alone. As with all my books, this has an HEA and no cliffhanger or cheating.

Love Mercy!

I loved the paperback & I loved the audible version. Aiden’s voice is perfect for Mercy & I loved Ava as Parris.

Mercy Me

Wow I have waited patiently for Mercy’s story. It was worth the wait. What a great read. Wishing there was a part 2. Just to follow the storyline. It’s that good ! Buy it.

Mercy is one of my absolute favorites

Love this whole series! Mercy is one of my absolute favorites. Rissa is perfect and the way he treats her warms my heart. The narrators are great. Love this book.

Military and therapy

This was a good story, broken heroe and a girl who challenge him just right. The Male narrators voice is just the right fit for a rough ex military .. wow ladies, wow 😉

Storyline was OK, female narrator BLOWS

Aiden Snow did an excellent job as usual but I don’t know who this new chic is they have him paired with, she SUCKS!!! The storyline was ok, I personally can’t relate to how desperate this chic seemed to be, because Mercy was a douche in the beginning. Still overall very entertaining

Mercy & Rissa (Parris)

Mercy is so much like Diesel from DAMC but more controlled and damn so much hotter in my opinion. Those sex scenes, geezzzz 🔥 Jeanne definitely made Mercy one hell of a man in bed. I definitely found myself begging for Mercy 😉👌He's a big A-hole for the most part but I understand why. I felt so much compassion for him when a comment was made about his "ugly face". He had a handsome face but had that scar and it didnt make a difference. In the beginning I had many laughs at some things he said and in his thoughts. I didn't think I would like Mercy (Ryan) as much as I did and Rissa (Parris) was exactly what he needed. Definitely should listen to.

Lord have Mercy

Mercy and Paris (Rissa) were beautifully matched. Rissa gave Mercy a run for his money from the very start with her smart mouth and defiance. They are the perfect yingyang couple lol.
