An emotional read! What a heartbreaking start to a new series that is a must read。 This story is about Mercy and it will emotionally grip you from the start, he found the love of his life with Michelle。 Their story is like Daphne and Tongue, but with an ending that you cant help but tear up。 I loved how their story started and blossom from friends to lovers, the good and bad of finding love。 This was a great start and I can’t wait for more of this series!

This gold medal winning duo has become an automatic one click for me so I don't read the description anymore, but the moment I started in with Mercy, I just about started crying from the jump because I knew where all of it was headed since it had the players from another couple books in it。 It's not an easy story to read since it will punch you hard in the feels like it did with me, and man I wasn't prepared whatsoever LOL!

“Have Mercy”。 Wow, where do I start with this book? I loved everything about this story, and I want more。 Mercy, Brandon, and Michelle were such great friends and tragedy seemed to befall them constantly。 I loved so much of their weeks together and that they had such a connection between all of them。 Mercy and Michelle had a once in a lifetime love story, just like Daphne and Tongue。 Hopefully their stories will end differently。 With Tongue and Mercy and the rest of the Ruthless Kings behind the “Have Mercy”。 Wow, where do I start with this book?

They had such a deep love for each other, and they were made for each other。 I give this story a 5-star review and I am so looking forward to more of this new branch off series。 。。。more

KL Savage has done it again another amazing book。 I loved getting to know all about Mercy and how he became Daphne’s father and how everything came about that Daphne grew up not knowing that Mercy was her father。 This book has romance,action,comedy, and of course heart break but I can’t wait to find out more and how everything is going to work out for Mercy and Daphne。

Mercy is just a heartbreaking read or at least it was for me。 I found myself reading it and wishing like hell that I didn't already know some of what happens at the end of this book between Mercy (Andrey) and Michelle。 That things would change but after reading Daphne and Tongues books before it it explained a lot。 I won't give away the plot。 Mercy (Audrey) and Michelle (Daphnes mum) were childhood sweethearts so this book centers on that and the 10 weeks they had together before Mercy is deploy Mercy is just a heartbreaking read or at least it was for me。 I found myself reading it and wishing like hell that I didn't already know some of what happens at the end of this book between Mercy (Andrey) and Michelle。 That things would change but after reading Daphne and Tongues books before it it explained a lot。 I won't give away the plot。 Mercy (Audrey) and Michelle (Daphnes mum) were childhood sweethearts so this book centers on that and the 10 weeks they had together before Mercy is deployed。 So much was packed into that short period of time。 Love, Heartbreak, Violence and Loss so much of all of it is in this book。 I literally read this book from start to finish in one night。 I couldn't put it down。 By the last chapter I had cried through a box of tissues。 I really hope this isn't the end of his story? 。。。more
