Deception by Natalia Lourose
The Sopranos meets Dexter: a striper searching for the truth and a psychopath trying to hide his desperate desire to kill.
A liar searching for the truth,
A psycho hiding behind a mask.
Both trapped in a web of deception.
Zoe
Everything has a meaning.
Every action has a consequence.
So there has to be a reason my world was turned upside down.
I just have to find it.
And that’s how I end up at Saints and Sinners, wrapped up in lies and half truths.
Surrounded by wolves, who don’t think twice about letting a lion into the hen house.
John
I’m not an honest man.
I manipulate the truth, pulling the puppet strings to get what I want.
I use people’s secrets against them, turning their transgressions into a license to kill.
I’m not expecting the doe eye girl in black lingerie to send a dagger through my heart with the sway of her hips.
But she has a secret, and I want to know it.
What’s a liar to do?
Nat’s Notes:
I am in LOVE with John and Zoe’s dynamic. John is the family psycho, know for being a bit unique in his “process”. And Zoe is from a rough part of NOLA and is searching for her missing best friend. She gets in a little over head with trying to spy on the mob. What I love about these two is the air of secrecy and how they tread water getting to know each other not sure if they’re willing to drop all the walls they built.

I liked this one, basically he hates everyone except her which is a trope i stand behind all the way!! The book is a slow process of things unwinding and setting into place. I liked the dynamic between the main caracters, he wasn't too psycho and she wasn't too naive, just the right amount of both to make it a believable relationship in actual reality...which I appreciate, cuz it gets you to relate and be all like "yeah okay I guess I see her point, I too could fall in love like that even tho he has no empathy, kills and is in the mob like I could totally forgive all that cuz i know the real him." Recomend!
