  <default_description>&lt;i&gt;Under the rule of science, there are no witch burnings allowed, no water trials or public lynchings. In return, the average law-abiding, solid citizen has little to worry about from the things that go bump in the night. Sometimes I wish I was an average citizen...&lt;/i&gt;

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...</default_description>

There wasn't very much progression with Mercy's feelings toward Adam or Samuel but she does figure out some things.

    <body><![CDATA[Now that Mercedes (Mercy) Thompson had the werewolves public figure head (Adam Hauptman) as a neighbor, Dr. Samuel Cornick as a roommate and the oddly kind vampire (Stephan Uccello) as a kind of friend and her, with limited abilities other than being a ‘walker’ that shape shifts to be a coyote, ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/74672328">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[After a strong first book, Mercy comes back full force in Blood Bound.  This time instead of a rogue Werewolf, we have a rogue Vampire.  Moon Called was a great intro to the Tricities underworld and brought us deep in to the world of Werewolves but this time, we are taken in to the world of Vampires...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/74152709">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[As this is a continuation of a series, I’m going at this just as continuation of my review of the first Mercy Thompson book, Moon Called. Over all, I thought this book was much better than the first. Where Moon Called had a lot of setup and background, Blood Bound was all about story and action.

    <body><![CDATA[Patricia Briggs didn't disappoint with this book either. I enjoyed her introducing the vampires more, and the vampire-demon was all kinds of creepy which I loved. Once again you get to see just how vulnerable Mercy is, and how much she doesn't care about putting herself in danger to protect others. ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/72100619">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Okay, so I’m a little embarrassed to post the book cover for this one. I’m not sure why they have Mercedes dressed like that; it doesn’t really match her characters personality at all. And, I think it would turn away a lot of readers that would otherwise enjoy these books. <br/><br/>So, I de...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/68916142">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Mercy Thompson's second outing finds her battling vampires, sorcerers, and her own strong feelings for the two dominant werewolves in her life, Samuel and Adam.  Picking up just months after <em>Moon Called</em> ended, as <em>Blood Bound</em> begins the werewolves have come out to the general public--albeit in a slow...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/54903256">more...</a>]]></body>
