The Undertaking of Hart and Mercy was so much more than I expected it to be! This book made me squeal from pure joy, and it also broke my heart. I cannot recommend it enough!

Megan Bannen took You’ve Got Mail, fantasy, and westerns, and combined those elements into something truly magical. I don’t know if I have to words to describe exactly how this book made me feel.

Read The Undertaking of Hart and Mercy if you love
🩵 stories with epistolary elements
🩵 enemies to lovers
🩵 he falls first
🩵 grumpy/sunshine
🩵 romantic fantasy

I can’t wait to read more from Megan Bannen. 4.5 stars!

This book made me cry hard at 4am but also laugh so hard I nearly woke up my partner. Definitely a darker read at times. *wish there was more sex scenes, but that’s because they were so good. But the sex didn’t take away from the plot.**

I really loved our protagonist Mercy. She’s fierce and I like that  Hart and her have mean nicknames and the banter is great. Plus the side characters are so loveable. I love the world. It’s done so well! I didn’t LOVE the ending twists and turns but I still really think it’s worth the read and the journey regardless

Such a beautiful book! The romance and the fantasy... just spectacular. I love the world-building and the usage of the fantasy world other than giving the possibility for demi-gods and gods, etc. They bit of mystery in the latter half helped balanced the spicy romance. It would have scored a 5/5 stars if it were not for the handful of grammar mistakes that I caught and stopped me in my tracks. The story itself was great and I like the inclusion of consent and safe sex.
