About this listen

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.

Wow

Loved this story of how she worked her way into this wounded soldier. Even once they got together he knew he would stuff it up but begged her not to give up on him. Great read.
Narration was awesome.

Not the best book I've listened to

Not the best book I've listened to. The female's male voice interpretation was very hard to listen to and distracted me from the actual story.

Duet narration please

Story was up to Jeanne st James usual high standards. Aiden is an excellent choice to narrate for Mercy. Although I enjoy listening to Ava she doesn't sound good when she tries to read in a male voice. It ends up sounding like an old man which ruins the whole story. It would be better if she read in her normal voice or have a duet narration where they only read respective characters. There are lots of examples of great duet narrated stories which work really well. Hope the rest of the series sounds better.
