Publisher's summary

He’s everything she’s never had. She’s everything he didn’t know he needed.

Having lost her parents at a young age, raised by her beloved uncle, Michele King is now a successful business owner, providing meals for people by day and getting lost in books each night. A somewhat lonely life, which she attempts to remedy by dating a man she met online. It only takes a few dates before she sees red flags. Breaking things off with a man she barely knows should be easy. But he’s not taking no for an answer.

Declan James moved to small-town Lindeman, Washington, to be near his former Delta Force teammates, men he considers his brothers. His focus should be on their new business, Mercy Ring, a boxing club specializing in giving locals—especially kids—a safe place to exorcise their anger and aggression. But instead, he finds his mind stuck on a certain shy local. Quiet and reserved, Michele is the polar opposite of the women he’s dated. And he can’t get her out of his head.

He's happy to get to know Michele at her own slow pace, until danger rears its head in the form of an angry ex. Now, Declan has no choice but to stay close if he doesn’t want their fledgling relationship to end before it’s barely begun.

Mercy Ring is getting better and better!!

Nyssa Kathryn does it again. Mercy Ring is getting better and better with each additional book.
Michele found herself in the middle of a not so great date after meeting the guy online. Deciding another date is not going to happen she tried to let him down easy but he didn’t take no for an answer. Declan was very intrigued with Michele from the beginning and when he heard she was having issues with an ex not understanding what no means, he made it his priority to make sure she stayed safe. Declan and his team promise to keep Michele safe but can they be with her at all times?

Enjoyable!

Declan is Book 2 in the Mercy Ring series written by @authornyssakathryn. I actually enjoyed this book more than the first. It was much easier to believe in the connection between the two. The suspense was great and the twist at the end as quite surprising!

Both @itstimpaige and Stella Bloom did a fantastic job!

Very pleasantly surprised!!

This book contains all the elements that make a worthy listen and I am so glad I tried this author. It’s a gripping, low angst, realistic story that drew me in. I love the sexy guys at Mercy Ring and what they stand for. Plenty of steam and romance but not overdone. I highly recommend!

Declan is Perfection

Well, well, well.... this new spin off is quickly becoming my favorite! I LOVED! Loved Declan. I really enjoyed that insta chemistry! Declan new what he wanted, new that Michele was different from every other person he has dated in the past, and he went for it!
Michele quiet and more introverted a romance lover herself, had a crush on Dec but from a hand brush felt that jolt of chemistry and they really didn't fight it. Declan has a fun loving side easy going, but that super hot alpha side 🥵. Yes please! He is just in tuned to Michele and that gets me every time. Together, they new something was there and there relationship just was that a sweet new get to know you phase, It was a slight slow burn until it was a full on forest fire and I loved every minute of it. This is a suspense novel that keeps you engaged, with some twists along the way. I mean engaged, from the prologue to the very end I was captivated!

Declan was a fun, engaging story that will keep you coming back.

again Tim Paige and Stella Bloom were amazing. I have very much enjoyed their narration of this series!!

Mystery and spicy romance

This book was filled with action, mystery, and hot steamy romance. The chemistry between Michelle and Declan made their pairing inevitable. His protectiveness of her was almost primal. I love how all the old team members step up to help one another. The Mercy Ring series is a definite add to your TBL/TBR.

DECLAN & MICHELLE

The second book in the Mercy Ring series is every bit as suspenseful as the first. Nyssa Kathryn cannot write a bad story! The only downside is that the male narrator wasn't one of my favorites. Don't let this stop you from getting the audiobook though. It's a very good listen!

Excellent 2nd book in the series

If you enjoyed Jackson, you will love Declan. I finished DECLAN by @authornyssakathryn, narrated by #stellabloom and @thevoiceoftimpaige. I loved learning more about Michelle, her uncle, and her business. The storyline in Declan did capture me more than the storyline in Jackson. Nyssa did a fantastic job building up enough tension between Michelle and Declan without making us wait for the storyline.

The narration in Declan was phenomenal. Tim Paige and Stella Bloom did an amazing job. There is one particular scene that Stella performed that gave me chills. I cannot wait to read Mercy Ring book 3 - COLE.

Gripping and unexpected

Nyssa Kathryn is a relatively new author to me and I am shocked that I have not come across her books before.

This was an entertaining romantic suspense story that ticked all the boxes for me. Well written, the narration was good and the narrators, Stella Bloom and Tim Paige were easy to listen to. From the first chapter I was hooked on the story that was told.

There were equal amounts of romance and suspense which was entertaining.The characters were easy to relate to and I really liked them. The chemistry between them was intense and I found myself laughing out loud on a number of occasions with the witty banter and humour.

The secondary characters were just as entertaining and I will be looking at other books in the series ASAP. The narrators certainly did justice to the characters and the wonderful story that the author created.
