Mariah Stewart – Without Mercy
Excerpt
Mallory Russo stood and eased the kinks from her back. She’d spent most of the afternoon sitting in the same spot, reading resumes that had flooded in to her employer, the Mercy Street Foundation. Ever since her boss, megamogul Robert Magellan, announced that he was funding an organization to investigate unsolved missing persons cases and needed to hire the best law enforcement personnel he could find, the flow of resumes had been nonstop.
The foundation was a private investigative firm with a unique twist: once a case was selected, their services were free. So now, they needed staff to handle the number of cases that were coming in. Mallory was wavering between two hopefuls — a retired detective from Miami and an FBI profiler who was looking for some new challenges — when the phone in her pocket rang.

My Review:
I've been waiting for this book to be released and I was so happy when Media Muscle gave me great opportunity to join the Love is Murder Blog Tour with a review and excerpts.
This compilation had a lot of my favorite authors involved (Beverly Barton, Allison Brennan, Sandra Brown, Lee Child, Cindy Gerard, Heather Graham, Laura Griffin, Andrea Kane, Sherrilyn Kenyon, Dianna Love, Carla Neggers, Brenda Novak, Roxanne St. Clair, Mariah Stewart and Debra Webb. There were some authors I never heard of and others I have but never had an opportunity to read until now.
I really enjoyed the stories though there were some better than others and I have found some authors I will be adding to the TBR pile. There were elements of paranormal, romantic suspense and tense and spine tingling stories - for your reading enjoyment.
Highly recommend reading and it definitely has my stamp of approval!
