Mercy’s life has undergone a seismic change. Becoming the mate of Alpha werewolf Adam Hauptman has made her a stepmother to his daughter Jesse, a relationship that brings moments of blissful normalcy to Mercy’s life. But on the edges of humanity, what passes for a minor mishap on an ordinary day can turn into so much more...
After a traffic accident in bumper-to-bumper traffic, Mercy and Jesse can’t reach Adam—or anyone else in the pack. They’ve all been abducted. Mercy fears Adam’s disappearance may be related to the political battle the werewolves have been fighting to gain acceptance from the public—and that he and the pack are in serious danger. Outmatched and on her own, Mercy may be forced to seek assistance from any ally she can get, no matter how unlikely.

This book is a suspense-filled ride from start to finish. Whether dodging Black Friday shoppers or hunting down the people who took her pack, Mercy is on a mission. It is neat getting a better look at Mercy's world's politics as she toes the line between human and supernatural.

Frost Burned picked up the pace from River Marked. Mercy is back in action, this time to save Adam and his pack. Caught in a hard spot with next to no back up, Mercy has to rely on people she least likely would expect. We see a switch in Brigg's writing with this novel. We have a few scattered chapters from Adam's point of view. A bold move, as most people moan and groan over any change in style, ecspecially 7 books into the series. However, Briggs did a bang up job, letting us see into Adam's mind and how he perceives both Mercy and his pack. We also see the mixed emotions he feels as not only a werewolf, but as an alpha as well. Full of action from the first chapter, I was hooked as characters I've grown to love were threatened and Mercy was pushed to new limits. Briggs never fails to keep me on the edge of my seat.
Evil humans want to force the werewolves to assassinate a prominent man, and try to bring this about by kidnapping almost the entire pack. Mercy hides Jesse as best she can and goes with Stefan and Ben to save Kyle, who is being held in his home. Fun adventure.
