the deception

This entire story was one insane ride and this book was the craziest of them all.

I am back to loving Marist. She was the hero of this book and I am so so happy with her arch. She can single handedly conquer nations and no one will be able to defy her. It was a stark difference from the last book and I am just so relieved with how her character developed.

I wanted more from Royce but I just can’t love him the way I loved Marist. He is okay throughout the series but I honestly won’t miss him much.

Macallister THO!!! Can we all just agree that this man is absolutely mental but at the same time hella attractive?? I know I’m insane but man the way Nikki wrote him in this book just made me fall in his trap. It’s a love hate relationship but I am here for it.

I was absolutely invested in this book from page one. I knew things were going to get out of hand and boy did they. There are some crazy insane twists and nothing could have prepared me for that climax. I have a feeling that this is not the END end so I am really hopeful to see more stories in this universe.

4 Stars!

Excerpt

I’d make it impossible for him to avoid me. I stripped off my clothes, dropping them in a heap on his closet floor, everything except the lacy panties I wore, then pulled on the white shirt that was too big for me.

It smelled like him. Woodsy and masculine.

The hem barely covered my ass, and I only did up the bottom few buttons, leaving the top open so it was clear what I was and wasn’t wearing beneath it. The final piece was the green tie he’d worn the night he’d appeared in the library. I looped it around my neck and tied it loosely so the knot hung between my breasts.

Then I climbed into his big bed and waited.

Anticipation crawled up my spine. It made me hyperaware of my body and the way the silk of his tie and the soft bedding felt against my skin. It had me imagining all the different scenarios that could play out when he got home and discovered me in his bed. Would he drop everything and crawl on top of me? Would he be upset I’d come in here without his permission?

Would he punish me for it?

A sexy shiver glanced through my shoulders.

Without making a conscious decision, my fingertips crept down the front of my panties, moving to alleviate the ache. Royce had spent a lot of nights in this bed thinking about me while he touched himself, and I liked how I was now doing the same.

I swallowed thickly as my fingers glided over my clit, bringing warmth and satisfaction. My eyes fluttered closed, and I relaxed back against the pillows, settling in to enjoy myself. Not too much, though. Hopefully, he would arrive soon and finish me off.

A sigh slipped from my lips. As I rubbed faster, the sensation caused me to arch my back. I wanted to writhe with pleasure. Give myself over to it and find release, but I controlled myself. The teasing was delicious and awful.

Time passed, although I wasn’t sure how long. I wasn’t aware of anything other than the heat building inside my body and the craving for him. When I got too close, I pulled my hand away and pressed it to the mattress, gulping down air. My heart raced, sweat dampened my temples, and—

New, different awareness rolled through me. A tingle activated an alarm, and my eyes popped open to discover Royce’s blue eyes fixed on me. His expression dripped with sex and lust and want. He looked at me like I was the sexiest thing he’d ever seen.

Warmth flooded my face. He’d seen me touch myself before, but that was when we’d been in the shower and during sex. This was different. I wasn’t embarrassed, but I was surprisingly shy. Vulnerable and exposed and showing him something no one else had seen.

I was showing him the effect he had over me. Did he realize how much power he held?

His penetrative stare was a heat lamp, both exposing and lighting me up, and two words fell from his mouth in a dark command that could have easily been a growl. “Don’t stop.”

Oh, Jesus.

Fire ripped through me, and goosebumps burst all along my legs.
