Consumed by Deception by Rina Kent

My husband. My monster. The truth isn’t always what it seems. Lia doesn’t realize that, but she will. Soon. I chose this life. This road. This twisted arrangement. For her, I made a deal with the devil. For her, I toyed with fate and death. There’s no going back. I stole her and like any thief, I won’t return her. Lia is my addiction. My obsession. My love. Mine.

Vow of Deception by Rina Kent

Vow of Deception by Rina Kent

My husband. My tormentor. The most notorious man in the city offers me a job. Act as his dead wife. Adrian Volkov isn’t the type of person who takes no for an answer. He commands with an iron fist and all his orders are met. When he approaches me with the offer, I have two options. Go to prison or put myself under his wrath.
I choose to have a roof over my head. What’s so hard about acting, right? Wrong. The moment I step into his wife’s shoes, everything spirals out of control. My only way of survival is through Adrian. Or is it?

Black Deception by Rina Kent

Dark Deception by Rina Kent

Being born a leader taught me one thing. I take what I want. Including the lone rose who’s struggling to survive on the streets. Only I’m no knight and I won’t do any saving. If anything, I’m the nightmare she can’t wake up from. The monster she can’t escape. The devil she can’t fight. I’m the blood that’ll be coating her pure petals.
