My Review
Out of Control
I really enjoyed this story as this is one of my favorite authors. Niko has to go undercover to watch over Angela and falls for her. Angela has a power and someone wants her to use her power. Niko and Angela work together and Angela really becomes strong. While Niko says he will look out for her she in the end to me is the strong one. I liked the chemistry between the two and the flow of the story. As always this is another great story by an amazing author.

Ties That Bind 
Cassie hates funeral homes but agrees to work for her friend one night. While her imagination is already in over time she is attacked by several men and Ethan comes to her rescue. Ethan is a vampire who is different in many ways from Cassie. Cassie is not brave and lets her imagination scare her a lot of times. Of course at times she should be scared. Ethan will do whatever to protect her. They work great together as a couple and the story has a good plot and flow.

In Still Darkness 
I have to say I looked forward to this story the most in this book. Richart has finally found the woman he cares deeply about. He saves her from a vampire attack and watches over her for days afterwords. Jenna is a female character after my heart. She is in her 30's with a grown sun and seems like a real person. It was very easy to get attached to her. I love how she and her son are close but she still has her own life and wants him to have his own. She is thrown into a new world she never knew about and handles it really well. her and Richart are perfect for each other. i look forward to seeing more about them in the series.

High Stakes 
I have to say this is my least favorite book in the series. I just couldn't connect with the characters and didn't like the plot. The author does a great job in writing the story it just wasn't for me. 

Overall 
This is a fantastic book with four short stories. I would recommend it to anyone who loves paranormal romance with action. If you have never tried these authors this is a good book to try four different ones in. You may find a new author to love.
