Dark Mercy is a short story in the Preternaturals series that nicely sets the stage for the full-length novel to come.  As the author states, the story is important for the characters and their situation. Which, by the way, is a situation that is completely unique and not one I've ever read about before. So if you're looking for something different, this is it!________________________________________About the Characters...________________________________________Angeline is quite a tempestuous character.  She's fiery, temperamental and well, maybe even a bit neurotic. However, I liked her. She has not had an easy time of being a vampire and she showed enough vulnerability to arouse compassion.Hadrian is the hero in this story. He's conflicted like no other hero I've ever read about.  You'll have to read the story to find out what I mean by that because to say more will be going into spoiler territory. He's kind-hearted but is definitely no pushover. And he does have a bit of a dark side that makes him attractive. He and Angeline make quite a couple and I cannot wait for their HEA to come out.________________________________________Bottom Line________________________________________This is a novel that any lover of steamy Paranormal Romance will not want to miss out on!  It's a great short story even without the HEA and I'd recommend reading it.I've read the first book in Winter's Preternaturals series, Blood Lust, last year. Which was awesome. I rated it 5 stars.  I plan to soon read #2: Save My Soul and #3: The Catalyst that was just released.  In fact, how's this for timing my lovelies, this week only, there's a huge sale on all three of the Preternaturals novels.  Blood Lust is 99 cents, Save my Soul is 99 cents and The Catalyst is $2.99.  This is fate, yes?Happy Reading!!4 Stars - Really Enjoyed It!
