Annie betrayed him when he needed her most, then vanished without a trace. Now suddenly she\u2019s back in the game\u2014this time as a suspected traitor and threat to national security.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Annie\u2019s son has been kidnapped by political terrorists. The price for his life? Assassinate a UN ambassador. Then Nash finds her, and immediately, the smoldering passion between Annie and the man she swore she\u2019d never contact again almost blazes out of control. But can Nash trust her? The stakes couldn\u2019t be higher: their enemy\u2019s endgame is personal, and one false move could cost them their lives. <\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">~*~*~<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2553\" title=\"mytwocents\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/03\/mytwocents.png?resize=244%2C46\" alt=\"\" width=\"244\" height=\"46\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong><em> Fans of Roxanne St. Clair and Suzanne Brockmann will love this new series by Dee Davis.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, I&#8217;m not a fan of the following authors. I love romantic suspense novels, but I prefer suspense novels that are more character driven in the style of J.D. Robb and Linda Howard instead of story or plot driven like<strong> DARK DECEPTIONS<\/strong>. Having said that, <strong>DARK DECEPTIONS<\/strong> is a suspenseful, well-written novel. It just wasn&#8217;t my cup of tea.<\/p>\n<p>It took me awhile to read <strong>DARK DECEPTIONS<\/strong> because I couldn&#8217;t get a grasp of the characters&#8217; or deeper insight into their internal motivation. In my humble opinion, <strong>DARK DECEPTIONS<\/strong> had too little back story and narrative, which made it hard to see where Annie and Nash were coming from. For example, there was a big betrayal that separated Nash and Annie years ago, both think of it but not in detail just anger over the other one for not being there. Since this is the big conflict of the book it is annoying there isn&#8217;t more details of why. Because of it, the major conflict feels like some big misunderstanding that could&#8217;ve been resolved if they just sat down and talked together. As a result, the big misunderstanding seems like something that happened to immature people instead mature professionals, especially considering the jobs they had.<\/p>\n<p>Despite my being unable to being able to buy into the romantic relationship and conflict between the hero and heroine, the suspense part was excellent and carried the story for me.<\/p>\n<p>So I truly think fans of <em>Roxanne St. Clair, Allison Brennan<\/em>, and <em>Suzanne Brockmann<\/em> have a new author that they can become addicted to.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Rating:<\/strong> <span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">6  (Satisfactory) <\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Heat-Level: <\/strong><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">4  (Hot) <\/span><br \/>\n[starrater tpl=10 style=&#8217;christmas&#8217;]<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.lynettestwocents.blogspot.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2542\" title=\"lynette\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/03\/lynette.png?resize=540%2C148\" alt=\"\" width=\"540\" height=\"148\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<!--themify_builder_content-->\n<div id=\"themify_builder_content-3540\" data-postid=\"3540\" class=\"themify_builder_content themify_builder_content-3540 themify_builder tf_clear\">\n    <\/div>\n<!--\/themify_builder_content-->\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dark Deceptions Author: Dee Davis Publisher: Grand Central Pub.
