Reviews: Iron Kissed/Bone Crossed - Patricia Briggs

Mercedes Thompson book 3

Genre: Urban Fantasy
Pages: 287
Published: 2008

When her former boss and mentor is arrested for murder and left to rot behind bars by his own kind, it's up to shapeshifting car mechanic Mercy Thompson to clear his name, whether he wants her to or not. And she'll have to choose between the two werewolves in her life-whether she wants to or not.


My thoughts:
This book is about a murder, and we get a closer look at the fairies hiding behind their walls. It also deals with Mercy and her two men, Adam or Samuel. Who is to be. I just love them both, but her not choosing disrupts everything.

I really should have written this review at once, but instead I did not. Why, well one thing is that I needed some time. The book just made me so sad, and it did make me cry. My heart felt for poor Mercy.

Mercy is one tough woman, but here she suffers through something that breaks here. I knew it would happen and when it did, well it was the aftermath that broke me in turn.

The book is well-written and she deals with the pain in a convincing manner. When the book ends I want to go and read book 4 to see how Mercy will handle it all.

A great book. Books do not often make me cry, and I never expected an UF to do so but it did. This book deals with some heavy issues.


Bone Crossed, book 4
Pages: 304
Published: 2009

By day, Mercy is a car mechanic in the sprawling Tri-Cities of Eastern Washington. By night, she explores her preternatural side. As a shapeshifter with some unique talents, Mercy has often found herself having to maintain a tenuous harmony between the human and the not so human. This time she may get more than she bargained for.

Marsilia, the local Vampire Queen, has learned that Mercy crossed her by slaying a member of her clan—and she's out for blood. But since Mercy is protected from direct reprisal by the werewolf pack (and her close relationship with its sexy Alpha), it won't be Mercy's blood Marsilia is after.


It'll be her friends'.

Plot:
Marsilia wants her dead, Stefan is hurt, and Mercy is sent away to investigate a ghost sighting, but only gets more into trouble,

My thoughts:
Mercy is still very lost and hurt, but she has Adam to support her, and in the middle of all this she had chosen him. Though that will to run is still strong. But she does see that he is a great guy and that the pack wants to care for her too, well some of them.

Mercy gets back some of her kick-assness in this book, but she has some way to go still.

I am totally crushing on Stefan after this book, I was all Adam who? after it. Yes Adam is all nice and alpha, but Stefan is, dark. And poor Samuel seems to broken, that poor wolf needs someone to heal his soul.

Good story, ghosts, vamps, and power struggles, and Stefan in the middle of it all.

Final thoughts and recommendation.
Still a Urban fantasy series that I love so much so recommending it to everyone.

Cover:
Well none of the covers really show the real Mercy, but still they are pretty.

Reason for reading:
I love this series
