Hart is a marshal,tasked with patrolling the magical wilds of Tanria. It's an unforgiving job,and he's got nothing but time to ponder his loneliness.
Mercy never has a moment to herself. She's been single-handedly keeping Birdsall & Son Undertakers afloat in defiance of sullen jerks like Hart-ache Hart,the man with a knack for showing up right when her patience is thinnest.
After yet another run-in with Merciless Mercy,Hart finds himself penning a letter addressed simply to "A Friend". Much to his surprise,he receives an anonymous reply,and a tentative friendship is born. Little does Hart know he's baring his soul to the person who infuriates him most...
Set in a world equally full of magic and demigods as it is donuts and small-town drama,this utterly unique fantasy is sure to sweep you off your feet.

MEDIA REVIEWS
'A lovely,macabre fantasy romance about life,death,and Actually Living. I cried twice and smiled plenty'- Olivia Atwater,author of Half a Soul
'This book is a gooey (and hot!) romance immersed in a tasty layer of quirky fantasy,like some decadent chocolate treat. A little sweet,a little spicy,a little sharp and entirely moreish! I delighted in every lived-in detail of the vibrant world,and relaxed into Bannon's confident wielding of romance beats that made me laugh,cry and exult in true victory. She played my emotions like a harp,and it was beautiful'- Davinia Evans,author of Notorious Sorcerer
'With its wonderfully unique setting,lovable characters,and engaging mix of humour and spice,The Undertaking of Hart and Mercy is a truly outstanding romantic fantasy. I loved both its kookiness and its deep authenticity. An instant favourite!'- India Holton,author of The Wisteria Society of Lady Scoundrels
'A uniquely charming mixture of whimsy and the macabre that completely won me over. If you ever wished for an adult romance that felt like Howl's Moving Castle,THIS IS THAT BOOK'- Helen Hoang,author of The Kiss Quotient
