Publisher Comments:

Mechanic Mercy Thompson has friends in low places--and in dark ones. And now she owes one of them a favor. Since she can shapeshift at will, she agrees to act as some extra muscle when her vampire friend Stefan goes to deliver a message to another of his kind. But this new vampire is hardly ordinary--and neither is the demon inside of him.

Review:

A suspenseful read that will have you on the edge of your seat as you burn through the pages. (Romance Junkies)

Mercy returns in this awesome second installment, which takes a closer look at the little-liked vampires she owes a favor to. Well, Mercy does make a tentative exception in Stefan's case...

Happy for the diversion, which will keep her mind off of her two werewolf suitors, Mercy sets out to prove she can handle as much as her stronger friends - and that no man will make her choices for her.

Getting deeper into Ms. Brigg's Tri-Cities world is a pleasure. Best enjoyed after Moon Called.

Love this series! I couldn't put this one down. A strong heroine in the vein of Sookie Stackhouse and early Anita Blake.
