Description

"Dark, dangerous, edgy, and deliciously sexy!" --Julie Ann Walker, New York Times bestselling author

"Kate SeRine knows how to pack a punch!" --Donna Grant, New York Times bestselling author

Luke Rogan's assignment is simple: secure young Elijah Scoffield and his mother and bring them back to headquarters--just an ordinary mission for an operative of the Dark Alliance. But Elijah is no ordinary kid. He's the grandson of one of the country's most influential politicians--a man privy to the Alliance's most valuable secrets, including its centuries-long connection to the Knights Templar. And someone else is attempting to capture the boy--someone who's proven he doesn't give a damn about collateral damage. . .

Heartbroken at the lies that tore her world apart, Sarah Scoffield will do anything to protect her son--even if that means teaming up with a deadly stranger. But Sarah soon finds herself falling in love with her dark hero. And as danger stalks ever closer, the fiery desire that claims them awakens in Sarah passions she'd thought dead and buried long ago. . .

I liked the idea of the Dark Alliance and if the first book is any indication, this is going to be a great series. The book is driven by a thoughtful plot and really well developed characters. Luke is as solid as they come. Protective, intelligent and sexy. He has committed himself to the Alliance and finds himself shifting that loyalty to Sarah and Eli. And as far as Sarah....she's not to shabby either. She's as rock steady as Luke and just as fiercely protective and capable. She's the perfect match for a man whose given his life to the organization. Filled with tension , the kind with bad guys and the kind between a man and woman...this book is a keeper.

WTF! Was my mantra throughout this book. Luke is willing to risk everything in order to protect Sarah and her son Eli. Sarah is a surprise though that Luke has decided he needs to figure out. There is a ton of suspense and mystery and some smoking hot romance in Deceived.
