About this listen

With one reckless act and a rushed confession, I knew my life was never going to be the same.

I was having a baby with a woman who was not my wife.

I would do anything to keep my love, to have her stay with me. But how does one forgive the unforgivable?

Mercy Lake is a second-chance, betrayal romance with an HEA. It is the first book in the Sin & Redemption interconnected novella series. It can be enjoyed as a standalone.

Mercy Lake is a messy little novella that left me more frustrated than moved. The breakdown of Owen and Alexis’s marriage didn't really read as cheating, but a painful misunderstanding after Owen is taken advantage of while impaired. Alexis walking away without giving him a chance to explain, and only circling back four years later for answers, made the whole situation hard to fully get on board with.

The writing style also just wasn’t for me, which made it harder to stay connected. On top of that, the second epilogue set six years later oddly felt more like a cliff hanger than a sense of closure. I can see what the author was aiming for, but overall this didn’t quite work for me.
