Description (taken from Goodreads):
Tensions between the fae and humans are coming to a head. And when coyote shapeshifter Mercy and her Alpha werewolf mate, Adam, are called upon to stop a rampaging troll, they find themselves with something that could be used to make the fae back down and forestall out-and-out war: a human child stolen long ago by the fae.
Defying the most powerful werewolf in the country, the humans, and the fae, Mercy, Adam, and their pack choose to protect the boy no matter what the cost. But who will protect them from a boy who is fire touched?
This book starts out like any mature, normal paranormal romance series starts: with the main character poking fun of her love interest. That is until the supernatural gets in the way and demands attention. As the werewolves go to fight a troll on a bridge in order to protect their city, they find Mercy demanding more than she bargained for.
Mercy meets what appears to be a human child, but he was once stolen by the fae. In the process of offering him protection, she finds herself at a crossroads. The werewolves disagree with her decision and do not want to put themselves in danger for some human. But the fae have a lot of reasons to want this child back. And they also seem to be hiding a lot more up their sleeves. Will Mercy's cunning and Adam's strength be enough to protect the ones they love?
This book was easy to read and did not let me down. I had fun going back to Mercy's world and following the new paranormal disaster. I also felt like a lot was left unsaid in this story that might continue on in the next. And while there are new characters entering the spotlight, it all ties together nicely in the end.
A series I fell in love with years ago. I must continue it...
