Blood Bound (Mercedes Thompson, #2) by Patricia Briggs

Book Description:

Mechanic Mercy Thompson has friends in low places-and in dark ones. And now she owes one of them a favor. Since she can shapeshift at will, she agrees to act as some extra muscle when her vampire friend Stefan goes to deliver a message to another of his kind.
But this new vampire is hardly ordinary-and neither is the demon inside of him.


SheLove2Read (sherrih95) I do love the way PB's titles seem to reflect the storyline of the book.

I completely agree!

Jen (jencroup) | 91 comments I only have Silver Borne left to read


 Danielle The Book Huntress  (gatadelafuente) | 574 comments Mod
I have about three in the series to read still.

This was probably one of my favorite books! I love that all my favorite characters are in here! Stefan, Samuel, Warren, Kyle, and Ben. Adam grew on me in this book - though he still didn't compare to my love for Samuel. :D

And I always love those Bran moments PB puts in!

Bry (utqtbry) The hard back edition of this book has been released!

Wow. I am completely in love with Adam!

I second what you said, Sherri!

Bry, that's very cool if you want all your PB books to match!

Oh I do!! I was so glad when her books started going hardback since that meant she was more popular but sad that they wouldnt all match! So now that they are releasing the earlier titles in hard back I am totally excited! I have them all signed by Briggs too!

I'm not. Samuel really didn't love her that way, which was why Bran sent her away when she and Samuel got together. He knew that Samuel would never make her happy.

And Samuel still has some serious stuff to deal with. He really is a bit of a basket case.

Jen (jencroup) | 91 comments AlbertaJenn, I couldn't agree more....I love Samuel, but not with Mercy


 Danielle The Book Huntress  (gatadelafuente) | 574 comments Mod
I love Samuel too, but she belongs with Adam!


 Danielle The Book Huntress  (gatadelafuente) | 574 comments Mod
Bry, it is frustrating when your book collection is mix-match. I'd prefer paperback because they are easier to store, but PB is one author I will buy as soon as they come out, even in hardcover.

I love Samuel - but I don't like him with Mercy. I like a certain someone else with Sameul - and hopefully, we'll see more of them.


Theresa (thesa) | 11 comments I'm really enjoying this series, but I can't stand love triangles. They are so trite. I am anxiously waiting for Iron Kissed from the library. From the comments, sounds like she chooses Adam... yay! I really don't see how she could choose Sam after their history. I hope the love triangle doesn't get any more complicated before she finally chooses Adam.

I don't like giving spoilers where they are not wanted, but there really isn't much of a love triangle in this series.

I hope that answers you, while being nice and ambiguous. :-)

Ann aka Iftcan (iftcan) | 297 comments Of course there is a love triangle in this series. lol, its between Mercy, Adam and Adam's Wolf. Or maybe between Mercy, her coyote and Adam.

Or maybe its a love quadrangle? Mercy, her coyote, Adam and his wolf.

But yeah, there really ISN't a lot of triangle--or any other angle--in this series.

And I too don't really like triangles/quadangles etc. either


AlbertaJenn | 26 comments Except Marsillia. She always has an angle. ;-)


Theresa (thesa) | 11 comments Good to know! Thx!


 Danielle The Book Huntress  (gatadelafuente) | 574 comments Mod
I don't like love triangles either. But I think PB did a great job with the Mercy/Adam/Samuel situation. I love both guys, but I want her to be with Adam. :)


Haley (goodreadscomhaley) | 2 comments I whole heartily agree. What to burst in...but Adam is much more...must better.


 Danielle The Book Huntress  (gatadelafuente) | 574 comments Mod
Adam is just so right for Mercy.


SheLove2Read (sherrih95) Mercy needs a man who, while not exactly dominates her, CAN dominate her if needed. She's a strong chick but sometimes her heart leads her places she gets in over her head with.


Liz Barrons-Kattalakis-Quiakides-Tehrror | 22 comments Lady Danielle "The Book Huntress" wrote: "Adam is just so right for Mercy."

I too think Adam is perfect for Mercy, he is an Alpha but understands that she has her own mind. I think that's why he loves her. Mmmm...Adam *sigh*!!!!!!!


 Danielle The Book Huntress  (gatadelafuente) | 574 comments Mod
You both make good points, Sherri and Lizabel. I think Samuel makes a better friend than a mate for Mercy.


Liz Barrons-Kattalakis-Quiakides-Tehrror | 22 comments I love Samuel, but I think when he looked at Mercy he did not really see her, he saw what he wanted her for and wanted her to be. He is definitely a great man and friend but not her match. I was so happy when he found his lost love...he deserved it!!!! Adam on the other hand... always respected her and her choices even if he did not like them and he likes her fire,her will, her strength even when all he wants to to is protect her instead and of course he loves how she adores his daughter like her own flesh. I just love them as a couple!!!!!

Ela | 42 comments yes, i love Samuel but Mercy is better with Adam

I agree, Adam likes her in a passionate way, Samuel's love seems more friendly/sibling like.


message 36: by [deleted user] (new)

I agree Sam is better as a friend but Adam is adorable he and mercy are cute together especially w/ jessie


message 37: by [deleted user] (new)

I do wish that we had seen more of bran and mercy together


 Danielle The Book Huntress  (gatadelafuente) | 574 comments Mod
Feige, I love the sparks between Mercy and Adam.


message 39: by [deleted user] (new)

Yep me 2 but aside for the cutest bantering ever I love when mercy won't change out of coyote cuz Ted made her believe it was all her fault and Adam sits on the floor holding her the whole night it's so sweet I just meant that bran and mercy r fun to read about not as love interest (even tho I like bran the best!) just as friends in their sorta complex relationship


message 40: by [deleted user] (new)

Going back to that coyote scene Ben is adorable there!


 Danielle The Book Huntress  (gatadelafuente) | 574 comments Mod
That was a wonderful scene, Feige!

Lila (legeartis) | 20 comments I'm not big fan of love triangles, but I can say without a doubt that Patty resolved this in a best way possible.


 Danielle The Book Huntress  (gatadelafuente) | 574 comments Mod
I totally agree, Lege. I tend to hate them, but I was happy with the Mercy/Adam/Samuel resolution.


message 44: by Ela (new) - rated it 5 stars

Ela | 42 comments From the beginning of Moon Called I always thought it was going to be Mercy and Adam, so the love triangle didn't really bother me.
