Rating: 4/5
Review: This was an extremely fast read. The characters were interesting, especially Mercy Hollings. She is able to make people do things with her mind. It was a different spin on the paranormal for me, which made it more exciting. I can't say that this was one of my favorite books, but I am intrigued enough to want the next book in this series or whatever it intends to be.
Book Description:I've never been certain I'm human
Oh, the X-rays and blood tests are normal, and most people have no reason to suspect I'm more than I appear to be. But if I tell you to do something? You do it—no ifs, ands or buts.
I call my power the 'press.'
My name is Mercy Hollings, and if you think that having the power to control people makes my life easy, you're dead wrong.
Because when I get angry, everyone around me is at risk—Sukey, my friend who has frightening taste in men; my clients, who, ironically, come to me for help; my neighbors, who regard me as a loner; and Sam, a man who wants to know my darkest secret.
I have hurt people in the past, and I don't want that to happen again. But now a powerful stranger is threatening the new life that I've made for myself.
And I'm afraid my anger is taking over.
