Fallen #3
Mercy for the Damned
Lisa Olsen
Mercy's trouble with angels continues in the third installment of The Fallen series. Mercy for the Damned finds Mercy determined to break Adam and Ben out of their demon prison no matter what it takes, and this time her friends are family are along for the ride. There are a lot of plot twists in this one, blending new characters and some we love to hate seamlessly into Mercy's world, while still taking the time to deepen the existing relationships in a satisfying way. As expected, the story didn't end with saving Adam, far from it, and there's a lesson to be learned in there somewhere about being careful what you wish for.Product Description"You'd think having an angel come to visit you would be a good thing. So why did I feel like everything was about to get ten times worse as one knelt before me?"Mercy's saga continues with Mercy for the Damned, Book III of The Fallen. When a new prophecy predicts a great evil if a fallen angel is allowed to remain in Midian, Mercy will move heaven and earth to free Adam from his deal with Raum. The trouble is, it's far easier to get into Midian than it is to get out, and Adam is perfectly happy to serve out the remainder of his sentence if it keeps Mercy safe from harm. Throw in some pressure from the police who suspect Sam and Mercy of eliminating Ben, and the race is on to rescue both of them before it's too late.

Fallen #4
Child of Mercy
Lisa Olsen
Editorial ReviewAbandoned by Adam, Mercy picks herself up by her bootstraps and gets on with life without too much wallowing in weepy tears. More family drama ensues as Mercy helps plan Matty's wedding to the odd, but ever entertaining, witch, Oriana. It's a struggle to rein in on the crazy and keep her life as normal as possible now that everyone knows she's got a bun in the oven, but Mercy's determined to make a stable life for her child. Faces from the past show up to complicate Mercy's hard won normalcy, and she finds herself with a terrifying new friend when the play for her child turns perilous. I thought maybe the book would end with the birth of the child, but there is a whole new can of worms opened after the delivery. Thankfully, author Lisa Olsen didn't leave us with a cliffhanger for once, but I hope this isn't the last foray into Mercy's world.Product Description"Have you ever gone to sleep one night and woken up and it's two months later? Okay, not literally, but I swear it felt like two months went by in the blink of an eye. Still no word from Adam, but each day got easier to accept his absence, and I started to believe he might never come home. I started to think... maybe I didn't want him to anymore."Child of Mercy continues the saga of angels and demons in Book IV of The Fallen. Left to raise a child on her own, Mercy contends with normal pregnancy woes, and a slew of dangers as new enemies and old vie for a piece of the child. Her heavenly cousins don't seem all that pleased with her impending motherhood either, and Mercy needs all the help she can get to keep her baby safe. Luckily, she has friends and family around to help out (a little too much family if you ask Mercy), especially Parker who is more than happy to fill Adam's vacant shoes. The question remains - will Adam stay away? And more importantly, if he waits too long, will Mercy want him to?
