Review of eBook
FBI agent Mercy Gunderson, back home after some four months spent completing her training at Quantico, shows her playful side as she teases her on-duty boyfriend, Sheriff Mason Dawson. Although things threaten to go catawampus, their rendezvous goes pretty much as Mercy had hoped . . . until a call for help interrupts their encounter. Mercy accompanies Mason as he answers the call and discovers that, despite the law, there are some things that simply remain unfixable.
Told from Mercy’s point of view, the story offers readers an eye-opening and sobering look at what law enforcement can . . . and cannot . . . accomplish. In this one day in Mercy’s life in Eagle River, South Dakota, events run the gamut from adventurous, to violent, to sexy, to humorous as readers are drawn into Mercy’s world.
The captivating plot and two intriguing nuanced characters work together to keep the pages turning in this brief but breathtaking story. It stands on its own for readers who have not yet read any of the books in the series
The Mercy Gunderson Mystery series starts with “No Mercy” and continues with “Kill Mercy.” This short story follows next, preceding the third book, “Merciless.” As a bonus, there’s a two-chapter sneak peek of “Merciless” included with this eBook.

Ben knows he was on to something and ask Lucy, if he can prove his theory could he get his job back. She agrees but says he is on his own in his investigation. His gut leads him to flower farmer named Callie Parrish. These two embark on a humorous and dangerous journey to find out what is really going on.
Nightfall by Laura Griffin
Holly Henriksen is on her way to deliver flowers to a wedding on cold and icy night. She hits a patch of ice and crashes. When she comes to and gets out of the van she starts getting shot at and runs into the woods. Colin is on an undercover op when he comes across the crashed van and thinks it part of his investigation. But what he finds is flowers in the back of the van and a frozen injured woman in the woods. Turns out his undercover op and her innocent delivery of flowers have collided. Even though this was a quick story - I still felt satisfied at the end. Not as satisfied if it had been me Colin was kissing but you can’t have it all.

Dead Flowers by Lori Armstrong
I am a true Lorelei James fan but I have to admit I have never read her Julie Collins Series.. I knew that Julie was one tough bad ass chic but as this story shows even tough girls have insecurities. It's Valentine's Day a day Julie hates with a passion and after one too many jobs of watching cheating spouses she is even more cynical. She starts to think that her live in boyfriend is cheating on her. I loved this story - there were so many LOL moments and I could relate to Julie on many levels.. I may have to go back and read this series now :)
Blood and Roses by Sylvia Day
Anastasia Miller comes from a family of grifters. She is an insurance investigator of art and jewelry. She left town 10 years ago because the love of her life Jake Monroe was an honorable man and she didn’t want to have to make him choose between her and his morals. Jack is now a deputy U.S. Marshal. When a heist goes bad for her Mom her brother and Jack’s brother, Ana has to step in to save them. Will Jake understand..?
Rebel Rose by Karin Tabke
Detective Cash Cantrell is called to the University for a murder. He realizes this one is almost an exact match to one 5 years ago. He finds a 22 year old co-ed passed out in the closet who happens to be the victims’ best friend. Rebel Yell Culpepper is a feisty one. She wants to find who killed her friend and pushes her way into the investigation. I got the impression there might be another book in the future to continue the story of Cash and Rebel. I hope there is as these two belong together.
A Punishing Night by Sophie Littlefield
Detective Joe Bashir returns to his alma mater to investigate the stabbing death of a male college student. Rumors of date rape and fraternity hazing complicate a sensitive case as Joe tries to balance the demands of the investigation with caring for his elderly father.
The Housewife Assassin's Bloody Valentine by Josie Brown
What a girl won’t do for her country. Donna Stone works for the black ops organization known as Acme Industries. Her mission is to break out one of Mexico's biggest drug runners out of a notorious prison in Mexico. This was my first time reading this author. The story had lots of humor and was part of an ongoing series but I didn’t feel to lost not having read the first book.
King of Hearts by Lorelei James
Deputy Cam McKay is called to a murder/suicide of Jim and Teresa Swensen. It’s one of the worst things he had ever seen. When both sets up parents get there they are understandably very upset and things come to blows. The father of Jim asks Cam why he never helped his son with his PTSD. That since he had been thru so much himself he should have helped his boy. Cam had no idea that Jim had been in the services and feels extremely guilty over this. He also wonders if one day he will do the same thing to his family. He refuses to go home but Domitri sends Colt after him to bring him home to her and his children who are his greatest healers. This was a very short read but it sure packed an emotion punch and brought tears to my eyes.
Bobbie Faye's Whacked-Out, No-Good, Really Sucky, Hot Mess of a Wedding by Toni McGee Causey
Seems this is the final Bobbie Faye story for a while according to the author. I had not read this series before and there were many characters in this story that I am sure had a lot of back story I didn’t know about from previous books but that didn’t take away too much for me. This was about Bobby Faye and Trevor Cormier wedding and hilarious blunders and an attempting kidnapping and an evil mother in law and all of Bobbie Faye's ex. I really enjoyed this story and was sad it was the last in the book..
