Excellent story. Action, sex, lies, and suspense. Two people couldn’t have been made for each other than these two.
This is Merc and Nightshade (Marissa) story. I love a good mystery and military book and this is no exception. Boy the extremes a maniac will go thru for revenge and greed is awful. Hopefully they find her team and Merc’s. There is a lot of action, betrayal and the love of her real father she didn’t know about. Loved this story.

PLOT TWIST! Great story line! From front to back there was never a dull moment. This book in the Men of Mercy series stars Merc and Nightshade. Their chemistry is undeniable and smokin’ HOT! Mr. J is at it again. There is no rest for TF-S. Even though a few HUGE mysteries surrounding this awesome cast of characters were solved, more seem to pop up around them. I see where this series is going…I think and so will you once you read it.
I can’t wait to see what’s going to happen with Operation Midnight. I am so anxious for the next book in this awesome series. I love it!
As I say not highly important if you don’t read the other books in the Men of Mercy series but it would be so much better if you did. Again I love the dossier that we get at the beginning of these books so we know everyone who is on the team and what their role is!
Nightshade was a very interesting character, she was raised by who we know as Mr J and is Caroline’s twin sister. We start the book with Nightshade getting her orders to pretend to be her sister. Almost instantly Nightshade and Merc have a connection when he saves her, she was so strong and sassy and oh my god she was almost as good as Merc and the team was! After the bomb was denotated and Merc and Nightshade were taken I loved the fact that she was the one to save him. I also loved the sarcasm we got from her.
Merc oh I wish we learnt more about him but being that he didn’t know we didn’t know, I did love the small snippets of information we did get about them. I also loved how he was so protective over Nightshade and that when he did discover who she was he didn’t try to push her away he just still tried to protect him. I love Merc.
Nightshade is a good actor! Pretending to be Caroline, through this book my one question was who was the parents? Were Mr J the dad or was it the senator? We do get it answered but I’m not going to spoil that but I loved it. The plot wowed me it was so deep and it touches on so many things and you feel so bad for Nightshade and what she had to deal with. I was so sad for her so when she finally had happiness I was hoping she was holding onto it. Thankfully she did.
I loved this story I felt like Nightshade was the perfect person for Merc and it was so good!
Team member Merc has a choice but which one should he chose? Will the choice be the right one? Surrounding them are some of the answers, but who the good guy is is also hidden behind veils of lies, deceit and secrets that will thrown them all for a loop. Some secrets that may even give him some insight.
The more the series gets into depth into these men the more I’m hanging on to find out what happens next. Impressive. I didn’t think this series could get more complicated let alone the twist from left field. Fantastic book. Highly recommended Series
