Book description
I've never been certain I'm human Oh, the X-rays and blood tests are
normal, and most people have no reason to suspect I'm more than I appear
to be. But if I tell you to do something? You do it-- no ifs, ands or
buts. I call my power the 'press.' My name is Mercy Hollings, and if you
think that having the power to control people makes my life easy, you're
dead wrong. Because when I get angry, everyone around me is at risk--
Sukey, my friend who has frightening taste in men my clients, who,
ironically, come to me for help my neighbors, who regard me as a loner
and Sam, a man who wants to know my darkest secret. I have hurt people
in the past, and I don't want that to happen again. But now a powerful
stranger is threatening the new life that I've made for myself. And I'm
afraid my anger is taking over. I've never been certain I'm human Oh,
