Mercy (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781732964525)

FINALIST in the 2022 INTERNATIONAL BOOK AWARDS!

I've already spent a decade inside the walls of this institution, but my new psychiatrist thinks he can waltz in and fix me.

His confidence is as legendary as the sexy haze of testosterone surrounding him, but my condition is complicated. It's messy and often misunderstood.

I've worn all types of labels over the years-non-believer, pariah, deranged, orphan...it's all in my file if you care to understand me better.

But the label that has implanted the deepest and garnered the most attention is the one I wear like a Scarlet Letter.

It precedes me when I enter a room and is whispered about like a schoolyard crush.

Paranoid Schizophrenic.

MERCY explores the realm of mental health in a socially inclusive way that's notably absent from today's mainstream fiction. It's deliciously naughty while still delivering all the feels readers have come to expect from International Award-Winning Author KC Decker.

What Readers are saying:

"Readers will root for Mercy's campaign to undermine the psychiatric profession's code of ethics." --KIRKUS FEATURED REVIEW

"Sexy, smart and addictive! Oh my God. I need all future romance books to be this good. I was hooked from the very first page. It was sexy, smart, and addictive. Mercy is the most complex character I have come across in a while. I love how her mental illness doesn't define her, it's just one part of her. Their romance is hot, forbidden, and very very sexy. I loved this book!" -Cranky TBC

"One quick glance at the blurb of Mercy is all I needed to know that I had to get my hands on it! A religious cult, a doctor/patient taboo romance, and a paranoid schizophrenic heroine? Yes, please!" -Jessica ChatterBookBabe

"This story jumped to my #1 story of the year. It is one of the best written stories I have read in a long time."

"Heart-rending, stunning, and truly talented story-telling. "Story stayed with me...... This was one of the best books I have ever read. Raw, gritty & emotional, with great depth, fabulous characters & thoughts that will stay with you long after the book is over."

"Damn!! Mind blowing story that kept me on the edge of my seat throughout. Fingernail biting, breath holding suspense to make this the best book ever."

"I felt what Mercy went through & that's the sign of a good writer. To get the reader so consumed with a character, you're emotionally connected from the first chapter! Excellent read."

"It is refreshing that an author takes the time to build characters and make a reader fall in love with them. A taboo romance and some off the charts chemistry thrown into the mix along with some hot, hot scenes. I read this book in a day because I just couldn't put it down!!"

"I love every word K.C. Decker has ever put down. When I read this blurb I was absolutely sold on the forbidden/taboo romance aspect and the intrigue of Mercy & Sutton. This book left me breathless." -RocknRead719

Wow, I give you a prescription to read this phenomenal book now. Mercy and Sutton will take you on one heck ride through Mercy's life & you need to hear it. Their story will give you all the feels with some naughtiness. This book is so different from my normal reads, which makes it refreshing. I have never read KC Decker before & I think I have been missing out on her fantastic storytelling. You must read this book.

Amazing look into the human soul.
Impossible to put down. KC Decker's writing is phenomenal and right on point to bring the characters in Mercy to life. There is an intuition here that makes Mercy not only believable but had me feeling that I was right there. The candor and frankness of mental health is inspiring." Book nerd.
