This is a great anthology that i just finished reading and was happy to see that the stories were related to one another.

the first story, have no mercy by Lori foster, tells the story of mercedes "mercy" and her lover Wyatt. they have been togther for 6 months and after the first 3 months since she is on the pile they decided to for go condoms, Mercy ended up being sick a few weeks backs and as a result the pill did not take effect and she would up pregnant. She tells wyatt she loves him and then asks him to marry her but he says he loves her too but has no intention of ever getting married and doesn't want children due to his past which mercy doesn't know anything about yet at this point. She moves in with him in hopes to change his mind .

The second book Deal or No deal by Erin McCarthy, I thought was a great book. This tells the story of a young vampire who comes face to face with her ex-fiance who she thought had betrayed her family and was involved in the killing of the rest of her family minus her brother peter. she is now using the the name Katie Stolin and is playing the Niece of Nick Stolin the man who turned her and her brother into vampires in hopes of saving their lives. Michael Finds Katie whom he knows as Maria to rekindle their love and protect her from Rasputin who is a fake vampire who's powers are held in the vial he wears around his neck . without them he is powerless. Can he find Katie's vial before it is too late? or will  Michael be able to protect her.

the third story, Total Control by LL Foster aka lori Foster, is the story of Mercy's brother Braxton and his assistant. Turns out the men in his family are gifted with the ability to control the mind's emotions and actions if they are allowed and not willed against the user. Brax has this gift and uses it for the good of humanity to erase those who shouldn't be permitted to live on this earth , such as rapists and child molestors. He works with an elite branch of the government to get rid of these worthless human beings. He decided he wants Cammie for himself and that she must satisfy his sexual needs in order for him to be in control of his powers because that is the only thing that keeps him level headed.
