The only story I read was "V is for Vampwoman" by Kerrelyn Sparks.
Lady Pamela has left the harem and is ready to strike out on her own. She is sick of always needing someone to rescue her and wants to be the person who does the rescuing. Therefore, she becomes "Vampwoman". Disguised as her alter ego, Pam decides to help Jack, Zoltan and Mikhail in their fight against human traffickers. The only problem is they don't want her help. Mikhail goes so far as to teleport Pamela to his bedroom and threaten to tie her to his bed. Actually, Pam doesn't think that is a bad idea.
This very short story is part of Sparks Love at Stake series. The characters have all appeared in previous books of the series. The story suffers from being too short with no originality. You won't miss anything in the series if you skip this story. My rating: 2.5 Stars.

I only read the short story by Kerrelyn Spearks, and this story is about the prime and proper Lady Pamela shes tired of running away when something scares her and she no longer wants to be a coward so she joins in the fight to stop the bad guys form trafficking humans for the bad guys to use. But she never expected the Viking Mikhail to stop her in her tracks. Mikhail has love Pamela for over 200 years and now he finds the real woman behind the pampered Lady. He swoops down in 2 nights to claim her as his own and already tells her his past tragic events and proclaims he loves her and was afraid of the snobbishness part of her and wants the real caring and compassionate women. Oh and by the way he prefers her on a pile of furs, its what he keeps playing in his mind every time he sees Pamela.

The first one, Sparks story, was at first rather silly, but I grew to like the couple, and the ending was very cute.
Palmer's story, on the other hand, was a let down for two reasons. First of all it was a part of her Vampire series and I don't read them, I read the Feral series. In the beginning it didn't matter because I did get very caught up in it. But the ending? No HEA at all; it just sort of ended, and very anti-climatic at that.
I didn't read Arista's or Falconer's because I haven't read any of their books.

If you love a good short story with vampires, this is the book for you. With four authors, two of which have over twenty books between them, and two that are up and coming, you'll have a great time reading and will be begging for more.
