Lise Kimball has faced some daunting obstacles, and flat tire be damned, she's through with feeling helpless. Being married to a verbally abusive husband has served to make her stronger and more determined than ever to live life for herself. A chance meeting with the irresistible Donovan True while on her way to New Orleans brings to surface wants and desires that Lise had extinguished long ago. Nevertheless, she's unsure about trusting another man who is unbelievably capable of taking charge.Donovan True is a successful, confidently strong man and when he meets Lise and discovers he feels more than a simple physical attraction despite having just met her, he's helpless against that instant attraction.It's no secret that I have adored Alison Kent and her work for many years and I have to admit that I thought this book, given its length, might be a little rushed and perhaps even limited in believability. I was so very wrong with that line of thinking. The story is fast-paced but not to the detriment of character strength and realism. Alison Kent is an artist when it comes to putting words on paper and she never fails to engage her readers. I give AT HIS MERCY my highest recommendation. The book may not take hours to finish, but successfully tells a beautiful love story.
