I was on pins and needles for ages waiting for this book, biting nails, stalking LB- I was dying for more of Slade and Mercy after book 2 left me utterly unable to form coherent words/thoughts other than FUCK.
I loved parts of this book and some of it made me insane..... Maybe my expectations were too high because I wanted it so damn bad BUT...
I was a little disappointed.
While I loved the book and, OMG! LB can write some hot as sin, keep me wet, panting and horny as hell sex scenes, it fell a little short for me. The last 15-20% of this book is what I wish at least 50% was about.
Slade and Mercy have some serious fucked up issues....ESPECIALLY Slade and we have watched them overcome so much as this trilogy progressed. Slade, being the sadistic, masochist that he is, got totally consumed with his darkness and I wish there was a little less 'fix Slade" and a lot more 'torture Abraham".
Although I am a tiny bit disappointed, I absolutely LOVE Slade and Mercy and all of their fuckedupness!

Beg for Mercy is everything I hoped for and more. It’s not just a 3rd book in a series -- It has its own heart. Its own signature that will stay with you long after you read “The End.” A Holy-Crazy Batman roller-coaster ride of emotional twists and turns that will leave you gasping.
This book is raw, angsty and emotional. We see a new side of all of the characters. The self doubts and struggles I have been waiting for all along finally come out to play, making this my favorite book in the series. I can’t even begin to describe the myriad of emotions I felt while reading this masterpiece- anger, heartache, disgust, elation, relief.
Lucian shows us brilliant, three- dimensional characters that, even if you aren’t familiar with their demons, you feel like you can relate to them. He magically weaves a dark tale with the bright light of hope, showing that love and light can conquer your demons. His strategic placement of humor has you choking out a laugh even amidst the nail biting action and gut wrenching tears.
5 Beautifully Broken, Glued together and now, Shiny and New Stars for this magnificent book!

5 Amazing Dark Intense Thrilling Stars!
I’m at a loss for words…. Okay regrouping. Wow what a book. First off I have to say Lucian you did an absolutely amazing job with this series. Each book in this series just kept getting better and better.
Usually in most series the reader can predict what’s going to happen by the third book but not the case with the series. There were so many great twist and turns throughout this book you’ll have not clue which way is up. Just when you thing everything’s over BOOM something else pops right up. So with that being said I am so sad to see this story come to an end. It was one awesome journey.
I though Mercy and No Mercy bought out every single emotion I thought I had but Beg for Mercy O.M.G. I went through an entire box of tissues while reading this book. I cried, I laughed, I cursed and I cried some more. By the end of the book I was one big old ball of snot and tears.
Beg for Mercy starts off at full speed right from the very first page and doesn’t slow down until the very last word of the book. Right out of the gates we see Sade and Mercy fighting to make their relationship work. This was just so emotional, at times it felt like I was right there going through everything with them. Watching Sade come to terms with and work on controlling his sadomasochist demons is wow! Oh and we also get to a little softer side to Mercy which was great (but she’s still tough as nails). For me personally this made Mercy a little more real in my opinion. Will love concur all? I’m not saying. My lips are sealed. Are all the loss end’s tied up? How yes how you ask? Go read the book to find out!

Wow! Where to start?!
Lucian Bane once again sets us down, with our nervous quivering tummies and straps us in that wonderful rollercoaster... Only hold on tight because this one goes where your least expecting! Keep all hands in feet inside the car at all times!!! Dont allow yourself to be fooled by those calm swaying hills and let your guard down! And i promise, when you get off your legs will be knocking knees and the snotty tears are rolling off your cheeks while you smile at the same time! We are talking about Bane, after all...
The conclusion of Sade and Mercy will have you laughing, crying, wanting to puke your guts up and then asking Lucian Bane to do it all over again by the very end!
The thing I loved most was that, I felt, not only do we see Sade heal...we see Mercy heal, which I must admit, I was not expecting. With the emotions, the action, the suspense, the love and just the right amount of darkness thrown in ...All I can say is 'Expect the unexpected!'

Holy freaking hell! Seriously?? OK, yes I devoured this book...waiting and wanting and BEGGING for it to go live, I was NOT disappointed!! Lucian Bane has a way of sucking you into this world and loosing your sense of reality while your engrossed in the pain and pleasure of this series.
Mercy and Sade are an explosive couple and utterly compliment and push each other like no other characters I have EVER read. I was enthralled and entranced into their therapy and love and devastatingly beautiful relationship. Their love is one that shows no matter what demons you face there are worse things out there and they lurk right around the corners. With help of family and friends this story is EPIC!! I can't even express to you the depths of emotions that pour off the pages and had me gasping with tears running down my cheeks trying to finish some scenes. And yes some moments on wanting to smack the bajesus out of Sade and Mercy alike. LOL But I loved it all, all the thought, love, pain, and utter joy of it.
I can't recommend this series and this author enough. EVERY time I pick up a book I know I am going to get a good story and FEEL something. And this didn't have anything lacking! Perfect compliment to the series and can't wait to see what comes next! #oneclick #begforit #Mercy

This book turned out so much differently than I had been expecting. The snippets the author had given were basically the first three chapters, but after that it was a whole new world. Mercy and Sade once again embark on a course of therapy to heal Sade's sadomasochism. However, all is not well on this tropical island paradise. Mercy and Sade learn things about themselves that are quite uncomfortable. And if you think Sade is crazy, wait till you see Kane in action with Father Abraham. THis series is now at an end, but I can see a spinoff for Kane continuing to track down Father Abraham's Eden, where he abused, tortured, and murdered children. WOW! What a powerful, emotional read! Thank you, Mr. Bane, for putting it all together. Keep feeding us your lies!

I sit here trying to write this review and I am just overwhelmed with thoughts and emotions swirling thru my head. I could not wait for this final installment in the series and boy Lucian Bane did not disappoint, the scary brilliance that he used to create this astounds me.
The emotions that are pulled through you and pushed at you are overwhelming in the best way possible. Sade in all his brokenness just makes you literally cry at his pain and all out confusion, while still wanting to slap him upside his head! While the way Mercy goes about trying to get thru his and her own demons is just amazing showing unconditional loving and pure stubbornness in the best ways possible in all her own brokenness as well.
The broken lives of Mercy, Sade, Kane and Faith will pull you into the agony, the past pains, the all endless love and the healing in all their amazing glory.

As I finished the book I sat and thought how could I possibly write a review. Five stars is not enough for this book. I love Sade and Mercy and couldn't wait for Beg for Mercy. This is my first dark series and now I can't wait for Lucian's next series. If you are looking for a book that is hard to put down this is your book. I laughed, cried and yelled at my kindle. Let me just say a great conclusion to a great book.

Beg for Mercy is the powerful conclusion to The Mercy Series: Mercy & No Mercy. It is a wrap up of all the dangling parts in the first two books and it was done with the precision of a surgeon with a scalpel, because that is just how good Lucian Bane’s writing is.
My emotions were all over the place in this book. The conversation between Sade and his Mom about the unspeakable sexual abusive he suffered as a child was beyond heartbreaking, cried my eyes out. Then you have Mercy, smart, tough, beautiful and so in love with Sade. Her obsession with helping him rid his demons before they break them apart was unrelenting. The passion and the strength that ensued in their endeavor to work thru these problems was heartbreaking at times. But then there was the sex, which was hot, dirty, erotic and out of control which took my breath away!!
Then there was Kane, who is lethal, charming and in command of all things, all of the time. OMG, I love this character. He is everything you should fear but instead admire because of his strength and his steadfastness to take care of those he loved. His handling of Abraham was a thing of beauty. I was cheering with every horrible thing he wanted to do to him.
I loved the ending of this book!! It blew my mind because I wasn’t expecting it and I’m smiling now thinking about how beautiful it was. This book certainly had its dark side but then there was the light, and when it came out it shined like the most beautiful crystal clear sunny day that you have ever seen!! Thank you Lucian, for giving us an epic ending to a truly unforgettable series.

“Damn those who crush the innocent. But blessed be the ones who restore that which was stolen.”
Book 3: the conclusion to Sade and Mercy’s story. There are parts in there relationship that are so cute, like Sade's boyfriend jealousy, yeah super cute. But there are also parts in the relationship that are so volatile, it had me really cringing. But there are most definitely parts that are panty-changing scenes. OMG!! Soooo hot!!! Excellent writing. Nice story with a HEA for everyone.
I do, however think that things went down way too quickly, like Abraham and Sade's Dad. And I do feel like there are some loose ends to be tight up: Will Mercy's memory be completed back? What happens with Eden? What happens with Kane's "business"?
O, and let's not forget the Bo & Liberty connection ;), nice!

This is one of my top FAVORITE series ever! This conclusion to Mercy and Sade's story didn't disappoint! So much darkness lurking in both them and the light that wants to shine. This book is such an AMAZING roller coaster ride that will have you on the edge of your seat with tissues in your hands and you'll be BEGGING for more! I would definitely give this book more then 5 stars if I could! I absolutely LOVED it!!!! #MustRead #OneClickNow
August 19, 2015
What a great fucking ending Lucian! I absolutely love everything you write!!! Mercy and Sade are so explosive together,you never knew what the hell you were gonna get out of one of her therapy sessions with Sade or what he was gonna do! Just wow! Very intense,emotional,happy,sad,just amazing Lucian! This trilogy is a must read!!!!!

********Spoiler Alert*******
Storytelling at its BEST! Mr. Bane's BOOM gets BETTER & BETTER..
I have been looking forward to the next book in this series. This being the conclusion, leaves me a little sad and with a major book hang-over!
This is not my usual kind of read, but I am so glad that I took a chance on this story and the author. Most of us fight one kind of demon or another, and it's good to see the characters in this story finally catch a break. That they fight for each other and win and even find that HEA! The writer tells the story in vivid & rich detail, that sets you right in the room with the characters as the story goes!
White knuckle, stomach sinking, heart pounding,wonderfully funny just where you need it most,sizzling hot & most of all hopeful. The story of overcoming the odds, family, twists, thrilling suspense, soul meshing and emotional. A strong cast and the hero and the heroine lead the way all the way to the tearful ending. Leaving the conclusion of this trilogy branded on your heart for all time. Mr. Bane grows as a story teller and writer with each new book. You're like "NO HE DIDN'T'- OMG YES HE DID! He puts a spell on your brain heart and soul. And always leaves you with a BOOK HANGOVER that many writers cannot compare to. This author and this dark series are at the top of my list. Leaving the reader with hope for better days, that demons can at least be controlled if not overcome and that most all deserve a second chance with love and hope!
A MUST READ!!!!

The beautiful end to one crazy series!
Few words can express how much I enjoyed this series. Each book that was read brought out so many emotion. There were tears, laughter, anxiety, anticipation, and at times growling at the characters. But the story of Sade and Mercy is one train ride that should not be missed. Two broken souls. Fighting their pasts. Fighting for healing. Fighting for love.
" Love. It’s what Mercy desperately needed from him. And it’s what he didn’t have to give. Not the kind she deserved. All he had was a mind and body twisted and tangled with the cruelty of his life."
To fulfill the emptiness in their souls they hold tight to each other. But with the revelations that have come to pass, demons are bound to surface. Clawing and breaking down those well built walls. And as Sade give way to what he knows, Mercy is fighting to bring him back. But nothing worth fighting for is ever easy.
" That fucking look had encased his heart like a hot silk, caressing, promising, calling him out in ways that confused his mind. The contradiction was enough to break his fury long enough for him to let go."
I am so emotionally exhausted. But every page was oh so worth it. To bring such a strong message thru this story is breathtaking. The past can only take hold of what we allow it to. Love can conquer all.
Few words can express how much I enjoyed this series. Each book that was read brought out so many emotion. There were tears, laughter, anxiety, anticipation, and at times growling at the characters. But the story of Sade and Mercy is one train ride that should not be missed. Two broken souls. Fighting their pasts. Fighting for healing. Fighting for love.

My Review of Beg For Mercy By: Lucian Bane
My Rating 5 Bravo Stars
The conclusion of this series, Lucian pulled no punches with this story, I thought the angst and frustration I felt in the last two books could not be topped, Oh how wrong was I. I underestimated the power of this amazing author his writing is brilliant the way he sucks you in and makes you become a part of the story. What an emotional journey this book was. It has left me with a book handover.
Mercy is the most incredible woman, and Sade is such a tormented man. The substance you absorb while reading their story has a pleasure- pain element you can’t imagine not having. This book keeps you dangling on the edge, hoping that Sade’s demons can be Mercified. There was a twist in the story I never saw coming and it blew me away. I won’t give away any spoilers you must read for yourself. I highly recommend this series. This series is now in my Top 5 Best Reads. One Click yours today.

Beautifully written, I was drawn in, turning page after page, wanting to know how this story would reach its conclusion. I was not disappointed! There where times as I was reading this that my heart was in my throat. The raw emotions I felt with these characters was unleashed with an amazing feeling of empathy. Some of us have been in the darkness, we know how that feels and when we discover that light, it's a feeling of pure exhilaration. This book was not only a fabulous read but I learned something that has been with me for years. With darkness there is light. We fight our demons and if we have faith and patience we will overcome. These two beautiful tortured souls came out of hell to find what they needed to be free of their past. What an excellent ending! I Loved it all!

I loved the final book in the Mercy Trilogy!
Sade finally fights his demons, but not without a butt-whooping. Mercy embraces the role of Sade's therapist and boy do sparks fly!
Lucian Bane explores the depth of his characters' lives and gives us a glimps of how difficult Sade really had it at the hands of his cruel, paedophile father.
Sade embraces his new-found second chance with his mother and Mercy's dad. With the help of Mercy, he learns to accept love.
It is a great love story. I couldn't think of a better ending to an originally tragic story.

Wow. That was the biggest emotional roller-coaster I have ever been on. I cried, screamed, laughed, cussed, and smiled through this entire book. I love Mercy so much more now than I did before. Badass Mercy with her ass kicking boots back in charge! Sade deserved a few throat punches but ended up being the great man I always knew he was. This just renewed my love for Sade. Kane is one of my favorite people now! I felt for Sade's mom. I was so emotionally wrecked from chapter 3 to chapter 17. Lots of tissues needed!! Just absolutely amazing! Absolute 5 stars!!

Wow. I don't know any other way to put my awe at this book. The wait for its release was torturous, and I drank down every single word as I read it. The final installment in this series was well worth the wait.
I am not an eloquent writer, so I can't sum up this story as well as some of my fellow Lucian Bane fans can. But I can tell you that I am absolutely and completely in love with Sade and Mercy. This story tugged at so many strings in me. It called to parts of me I didn't know existed. In an age when so many authors are putting out books that touch on the world of BDSM, and a good portion of those not knowing much, or anything, about the lifestyle, it's refreshing to read something written by someone who knows what they are talking about. Someone who understands the emotions behind the characters, and can pull the reader in to experience those emotions right along with them. I felt like I was on a roller coaster for this entire series, but most especially this last book. The highest of the highs and lowest of the lows.
I cannot recommend this entire series enough. This will forever be one of my Top 10 books/series. Congratulations, Luc, on another FANTASTIC release!

I've been hooked on this series since the first page of Mercy. Lucian Bane has this way of weaving a web of twisted love that you never ever want to get out of.
I've been anxious for this conclusion since I closed No Mercy months ago and it does not disappoint. There's no way to even tell you anything about the story without spoiling something and I'm so anti spoiler and refuse to ruin something for someone. Sade thinks that he is totally unlovable. A monster. Mercy has seen the good in Slade since the first time she laid eyes on him. I love these two. I've laughed with them, cried for them, rooted for them, held my breath for them, and been terrified right along with them.
Grab the conclusion to Slade and Mercys story. It doesn't disappoint and has everything you expect it to have and be Lucian Bane has done an absolutely amazing job. It's a series I certainly won't forget and I'm sure will read many many times over. I'm sad the ride is over but left in a fog of satisfaction.

What a Conclusion to a great series.
I was so excited to read The final part in Mercy and Sade's story that I sat and read the book in one sitting, what a journey I was taken on. I loved how the author was able to pull me into the story so deep. I felt like I truly lived it. The emotions just rolled of the pages and I'm not going to lie I choked up more than once, but I loved every minute of it. The story took a totally different path to what I expected and I liked that I wasn't able to guess exactly what would happen. This is a phenomenal series and I would definitely recommend it. I look forward to reading more from Lucian Bane.

***You've got me begging, Mercy, Mercy PLEASE 4.5 STARS***
(ARC given by author for honest review and as part of blog tour ~ THANK YOU!!!)
“Damn those who crush the innocent. But blessed be the ones who restore that which was stolen.”
This is the conclusion to Sade and Mercy's story and lets just say its a good one!!! I LOVED this story!!! I had to have it the moment it was released!!!
What we know going in:
Sade has been determined to make Mercy remember him and the love that they shared.
Mercy can not remember the love they shared but she wants to Love Sade any way.
Sade's mother is NOT DEAD!!!
Mercy and Sade's parents are married!!!
OOO and Father Abraham is NOT DEAD either!!!
So the last few pages of No Mercy had me reeling, and made me have to know whats going to happen next. I needed to know that Sade and Mercy were going to get their happy ending.
“Thank you for loving me, Mercy,” he whispered, kissing all over her face now. “Thank you for coming into my life baby. Coming into that fucking darkness,” he gasped. “And taking my hand and walking me the fuck out,” he cried. “Thank you Mercy. Thank you for loving me. Thank you for loving me.”
There were parts of this book were I cringed. (Literally, grabbed my face or turned my lips up, and CRINGED!!!) Sade's treatment of Mercy during his sadistic episode almost broke me. Then the way he treated her during their "therapy" lessons, made my heart hurt.
There were places were I cried and then there were places were I laughed.
The best places were where I could not erase the smile of my face, and when I to change my panties because the scenes were so HOTTT!!!!
I did wish that there were a few parts of the story that had played out a little longer or in more detail, like now that Kane knows were Eden is, whats next??? Or the scene with Sade's dad. It seemed to go over way TOO easy. And Mercy. I love where she ended up, but does she ever get her memory back??? Does she keep trying???
I LOVE Lucian bane's writing style. Every word continued to pull me in and made me ant to know more. If he were to write a novella or continuum about Bo and Liberty or Kane, I would be the first to read it.
Note:
This story is NOT for the faint of heart, but if you can handle a gritty love, where two people have to fight for one another, then this is the story for you. With all of its twists and turns, you will be delighted if you hang on for the ride, because it is well worth it.

This second book really had my heart racing from the start, what Mercy, Sade and Bo go through is beyond your imagination. I waited to read this even though I couldn't wait to get it, my reasoning was I was wondering if I could like it as much as the first, my god it has had every emotion of mine while I read it I now feel totally lost but elated that it exceeded all my hopes. The way this has been written takes you through right there with the characters so much so you can actually feel their emotions and there is always that ray of sunshine in the distance to never give up on hope no matter how low
Merged review:
OMG I feel like I have waited forever for this to come out and it excelled all my thoughts. I am trying to find the words to do it justice so I will do my best, Lucian Bane you have done it again i'm speechless, throughout reading each one I didn't think it would grip me as much as the previous but they have and your writing is amazing to be able to write this series and give us the amount of feeling in their dark lives, their love, their pains but most of all their healing and the message throughout this has been no matter how dark your life is look for that little bit of hope, work on it, never give up. you really need to get this it will take you beyond.

The anticipation for this book was almost unbearable.
I am a bit at a loss for words at the moment. I loved the dynamics of each character. The exchanges between Mercy & Sade were painful, powerful & ultimately beautiful. Kane is EPIC...sorry, Lucian, borrowed some capital letters from you :-P
I honestly worried as I started this series as I thought I wouldn't like a darker story. I am that one who won't watch a tearjerker movie without averting my eyes or covering my ears. It was a tricky journey for me but worth it...all of it.
There are all sorts of incarnations of love, family & commitment that are not represented at the Hallmark store. This book is a perfect example of that.
Highly recommend this book!

I have been waiting for this book since No Mercy ended, the snippets i received by email kept me going until Beg For Mercy was released, i bought it as soon as it was released and sat and devoured it, OMG i was not dissapointed, Mercy and Sade are so made for each other, the love she has for Sade shines out of her, I love Mercy she is so strong and able. Sade loves her although he tries to send her away to protect her (it doesn't work)
Lucian Bane is a fantastic author he get all the emotions in there from sadness, sorrow, anger, laughter and happiness, Beg for Mercy finishes of the trilogy perfectly and what an ending absolutly brilliant, another winner there Mr Bane.
