Mercy

De: Sara Cate

Narrado por: Lucy Rivers, Gideon Frost

I don’t want to hurt him—I just want to punish him.

It’s bad enough being the only female owner of the Salacious Players’ Club, but I’m also the only one without a kink, or so I thought.

Imagine my surprise when the kink quiz suggests that I’m not so vanilla after all.

In fact, I’m a lot more like Emerson Grant than I thought.

Just one problem—I have no idea how to be a Domme.

That is, until the app matches me with someone willing to help me learn.

He’s too young for me.

Too stubborn.

Too good looking. And, oh yeah, my friend’s son.

Beau Grant is a brat. I’d hate that about him if I didn’t love punishing him so much.

Underneath all of that attitude is a man who is misunderstood, selfless, and in need of direction.

But if he wants mercy, he has to earn it.

There are a million reasons why I should stay away, but I’m tired of doing what everyone thinks I should do.

I finally know what I want, and I’m ready to take what’s mine.

This series is great.

I’m really enjoying this series each book is so different in the BDSM world and I can definitely saying I’m learning a lot.

AMAZING

I love the 2 narrators, it’s my favorite thing about these book, is getting the male and female perspective. Seeing the respect and love and dominance- the give and take in the characters in all Sara’s books as they figure out themselves and each other makes the sensuality even more precious and more realistic. I love the slightly forbidden/slightly taboo aspects of her stories, it cranks up the heat even higher with the pining. Some of the highest grade smut there is.

Don’t stop reading

You might want to stop, but just keep going. If you have an open mind, you won’t be sorry.

OMG

This book is beyond hot! This whole series is amazing but I think this book was my favorite. Can’t wait to read more kinda hoping for one about Sophie now… I really hope that is coming next.

This book is EVERYTHING!!!

Honestly, you could pump this book DIRECTLY into my veins and it wouldn't be enough!! Maggie & Beau were made for each other! And if you are hesitant because you remember Beau from book 1 of the series, DON'T BE -- it's worth it!!!

I ❤️ this being from a females perspective.

This was definitely one of my very favorites of the series. It was great to have a female dom.

Loved!!

This has been my favorite Salacious book yet! Great character arcs, excellent spice, and a refreshing change of dynamic.

My fav

I loved this so much. I held off on this one because of Beau, but I think it is my favorite of the series so far. I love Maggie’s character development through the book too 😍

Loved These Two

When Sara first released the tropes for Mercy and had Maggie in a reverse age gap relationship, I wondered if it might have been Beau. I hated him so much during most of Praise, but he really came around at the end and I wanted to see his redemption. Boy, it did not disappoint. Beau was the perfect brat, spoiled his whole life, with arrogance for miles. Maggie was a gem as a Domme. When she finally shed her shame and stepped into the role, it was incredible.

I loved that this one was a little darker than the others in the series. Nothing is better than watching a broken boy heal and Beau "was never whole to begin with". He took a lot of his anger out on Emerson for a long time, but we finally get to see where all that anger comes from and how Maggie helps him deal with it. There was one point where he blew up at her and it was such a sad, but (eventually) beautiful moment. He needs the control she offers.

The climax was really unexpected to me. I'll leave it at that, I don't want to give up any spoilers. I love how it all played out in the end, even giving Beau's mom a chance at some redemption.

This story was absolute fire. Hot Hot Hot. I never imagined liking a reverse age gap or a Domme book, but somehow Sara always seems to make me believe any kink could be mine. I loved this relationship so much. The emotion that went into it really made the BDSM that much s3xier. And it was great getting to see the punishment/brat side of Dom/sub relationships after the praise/good girl side we got to see in Praise.

Lucy Rivers and Gideon Frost were sooo good in the audio. I absolutely loved rereading to this story with my ears and already can't wait to do it again.

I LOVED this book!! So happy to read of a Domme. And the relationship between Maggie and Beau is ELECTRIC (and when you read it, you’ll know what I mean)! Fabulous book Sara Cate and the narrators were wonderful!!! Lucy and Gideon knocked it out of the park!
