She traded the law’s danger for an outlaw’s protection.
Mercy Hollow was never supposed to be her stop.
Jade planned to stay on the bus longer, to put more distance between herself and the thing she was running from. But when she sees the men who run Mercy Hollow, she recognizes something she hasn’t felt in a long time: protection. Not lawful. Not gentle. Real.
The Saintless Sons don’t ask many questions. They see trouble, and they step in. Staying is a choice Jade makes with her eyes open, because if the law can’t keep her safe, maybe outlaws can.
Neo watches from the edges. Control is how he survives, how he keeps Mercy standing, how he decides what deserves his attention. Letting Jade stay is instinct. Wanting her is complication.
What begins as shelter turns into something quieter and far more dangerous, because when the past catches up, mercy alone won’t be enough.
Mercy and Control is a dark romance about choosing the protection of outlaws, crossing lines deliberately, and discovering how far love will go when survival is no longer hypothetical. It is book 1 of the Saintless Sons series, where each book follows different characters. It will NOT end with a cliffhanger.
