This book includes two stories, rated 4 stars. Even though some books are better than others, I love the Trek series. It is a wild and fun escape. I recommend reading them in order. Both of the stories below are also published individually.
4 stars for NO ESCAPE. This story has several stories in process, to be continued in the next book. The primary story is about Kara fleeing from Cam because she wanted some independent time before she married. He initially thought she was dead, but as soon as he heard she was alive, five years later, he was able to hunt her and find her. Separate stories begin about Dari fleeing her future husband while learning about and how to stop the evil one. Jana mates with Yorin who takes her to his ice planet. Kari continues to flee from Death and helps Dari.

3 1/2 stars. No Mercy: Cam and Kara's story. Pretty good tension between the characters but story is rushed and lots of other characters are thrown into the mix. Gives some idea of what Jaid Black's planning for other characters in future books. No Fear: Jek and Brynda's story: funny and sweet. Liked this one better.
Two erotic futuristic stories best read in series order. No Escape Kara wants freedom so flees from her fiance Cam – so many sub-stories hard to track. No Fear Librarian Brynda finds herself in a whole new world with Jek – best of the two with some variety.”
I wasn't a fan from page one. The "old world" language had me re-reading the same paragraph several times. The characters were not at all memorable and the supporting "cast" wasn't much better. This is a series that won't be re-visited.
