Night Broken by Patricia BriggsMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Night Broken is the 8th book in the fantastic urban fantasy series that features Mercy Thompson as the heroine.
Mercy is faced with not one but two new challenges in her life!
Not only having to deal with Christy, Adam’s ex-wife’s hysterical call for help from a dangerous stalker but she wants to come and stay in their home until she’s safe. Adam is not keen to agree to her staying with them….not only is she dramatic but a trouble-maker.
Jesse, Adam’s daughter with Christy, who has become very close to Mercy, is unhappy about her mother’s request…. She knows that she will cause trouble between Adam and Mercy and do anything to break their bond.
Despite not being over the moon, Mercy, has a kind heart and agrees to Christy’s plea, though she does have reservations about Christy’s real intentions….
… she’s also worried about Christy influencing her, just getting better, relationship with the pack.
She is forced to deal with her own insecurities and the feeling that Christy wants Adam back at any cost.
And if that’s not enough to deal with in one night, Alistair Beauclaire, the fae Gray Lord and not exactly a nice one, comes knocking at Mercy’s door demanding that return his father‘s magical walking stick.
Things are not going too well for Mercy. She had given the walking stick to her coyote father and finding him to get it back is not going to be a breeze. Coyote father is a slippery character to track down!!
Adding fuel to the fire, the local law enforcement ask Mercy and Adam for help in solving a gruesome crime. There are very few quiet moments in Mercy’s life……
Mercy and Adam, with the help of the pack try to find and destroy Flores, Christy’s stalker, who turns out to be a very dangerous character. Mercy’s search for her elusive coyote Father has her making new discoveries about her family and herself.
Mercy and Adam are an incredible couple…they work well together and they have a very close and tight bond, which we have seen grow and develop throughout the series. And has much as I love Mercy, I totally adore Adam Hauptman…
I absolutely adore, love this series……I can’t wait for the next installment!!
