Recruited by Death, Mercy holds the coveted title of a Taker. She is one of many in the ranks of his dark army, but Mercy is not like the others...she's different. Never knowing a human life, Mercy struggles with a very real human emotion and her humanity. Ignoring Death's orders, she follows her impetuous heart and fails her first assignment. Luke Winters was the first mark on Mercy's record. With his dark hair and icy blue eyes, she has an instant connection with the human and allows him to live breaking one of Death's cardinal rules by giving him a second chance. Three years later, Luke's name is chosen once again from Death's cauldron. This time though, he's not Mercy's assignment but Roan's, a long-time rival. As things heat up between Mercy and Roan, she must decide just who her heart belongs to. Can Mercy save Luke again or will Roan take away the one person capable of unlocking the secrets of her past and end up breaking her heart forever?
