Deception by Victoria Saccenti – Review by Jana Teppih

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Deception by Victoria Saccenti was an interesting new find for me as I had not read anything by this writer before. I love military and revenge stories so after reading the synopsis I decided to give it a go.
Hunter and Joe are the leads in this story though there are quite a few important supporting characters as well. Joe is an ex-marine who is determined to take out revenge on Hunter who he thinks is to blame for Joe’s teammate having committed a combat suicide. The reality is actually much different and the writer takes us deep into the Dominant-Submission lifestyle with a great backstory and plot. Be prepared for sex and submission and secrets and … I have to admit that the end seemed a bit forced and you might also feel like as if we are missing something but overall it was an intriguing read that does not leave anyone cold!

I had no clue what I was getting myself into when I picked up Deception by Victoria Saccenti, but boy was I in for a steamy and fun ride! This is a new author to me but something about the cover and a few teasers really drew me in and I decided to give it a go. I didn’t expect the amount of steam and bdsm lifestyle that I got but I loved it. It is a difficult topic for me to read at times because I too live an active role in alternative lifestyles and sometimes these books can come across as anything but true and realistic to those that live the life. Saccenti did a wonderful job in my opinion of incorporating the characters lifestyles without letting it become overwhelming and the only thing the book is about. I was sincerely grateful for that and it will be bringing me back for more of Saccenti’s novels very soon!

This one has a strong main character, Joe, an ex-marine with vengeance on his mind. He is determined to find the person responsible for the death of a former brother in arms. I loved the side characters just as much as Joe and was really drawn into the character development as the story went on. I loved the suspense build and was on the edge of my seat a lot of the time wondering what would come next. I look forward to seeing what else is available from Saccenti while I await anything new!

This is the first book that I have read by this author and she has definitely left an impression on me! I devoured the book in one sitting and I loved every single minute of it. I loved reading about Joe and Hunter – both not what I was expecting as characters either which I really liked! Joe was probably as I would expect a dominant to be but I loved that he also had a back story to him and I enjoyed getting to know him. I really liked Hunter she could definitely hold her own – I found her character really interesting. It was fun to read about these two together. I have read a lot of D/s stories and sometimes they can be a bit repetitive but I really enjoyed the way the author wrote this story, it wasn’t repetitive or stereotypical, it was really great to read and I would highly recommend it. I cannot wait to read more from her in the future.

Deception by Victoria Saccenti

This is the first book I’ve read by the author, but it won’t be my last. Warning now if you don’t like BDSM then this won’t be a book for you.

Hunter is a girl who turns everyone away. She’s the type who doesn’t want to let a guy in. Known as a heartbreaker and homewrecker she likes life that way. Until Joe Reid enters her life. The quote I choose for Hunter is: “I thought I was losing my mind. See, he calls to me, and more bewildering is the sensation of healing I get from him.”

Joe, a former Marine, comes home for good. Losing a buddy of his started something that changes his life. Hunter wasn’t supposed to change his life but she did. For the better it seems. The quote I choose for Joe is: “Damn, girl. You flirt, you’ll find me and a hell of a lot more.”

This book was an amazing page turner and I will be keeping my eye out for more. Hunter and Joe are so realistic I thought it was a movie. I do highly recommend this for anyone who likes to think outside the box.

I enjoyed this story. This is my first book by this author and I look forward to reading more from her. This is a well written story that has developed details that made the story feel real. I had no problems connecting with the characters as they brought the story to life. I enjoyed being pulled into the story right from the beginning. This is a story about Joe who is a Marine. His teammate received a letter and shortly after reading the letter commits sucide. After getting hurt, he is sent home. What will happen when he runs into the person who wrote the letter? He decides to hurt them as much as he is angry about his friend. But will his plan backfire on him? He makes such a great character and is my favorite in the story. He made the story for me despite the revenge and the way he plans to get it. A great story that I highly recommend.

By Victoria Saccenti
5 out of 5 stars

The book Deception by Victoria Saccenti is a story that I enjoyed reading. It is a book that pulled me in from the beginning and I found myself not wanting to put it down until the final page. It is a story that includes revenge and love. I loved reading about the characters of Joe and Hunter. Joe is a man who is set on revenge because of the suicide of a teammate. Hunter is his target. He starts down a carefully laid path. What would happen if in the process other emotions and feelings begin to form? Hunter is a woman who finds herself drawn to Joe. He is unlike those who have come before. What does the future hold for Joe and Hunter? Read this book to find out. This is a story that had me turning pages to find out what happens next. It is written in such a way the I felt like I was right there with the characters. I enjoyed reading about the bantering back and forth between Hunter and Joe. This book does have very steamy scenes that make the temperature in the room rise. I also enjoyed reading about Hunter’s best friend who is always there to help her. I liked that Hunter’s character is strong and intelligent. She has goals set for herself and is determined to achieve them. Don’t miss out on a story that is intriguing and entertaining. I highly recommend reading it.
