The heart-stopping sequel to The Iron Admiral: Conspiracy
Grand Admiral Chaka Saahren has everything, except the woman he loves.
Allysha Marten wants nothing to do with him. She blames him for the deaths of innocent civilians, including her father, and she intends to keep her distance. That vow lasts until the Fleet demands her skills for a temporary assignment. She agrees on one condition, avoid Saahren at all costs.
Sean O'Reilly, the cheating husband she left behind, sees Allysha as his only hope. Drowning in debt, he hatches a desperate plan - capture her and force her into one last job, something only she can do, something dangerous enough to save his skin.
Dragged between two men and a plot that stretches across the galaxy, Allysha begins to uncover what has really been happening around her. Betrayals. Secrets. Layers of manipulation. When she realises she has been used for a terrible purpose Saahren will be faced with an impossible choice.
Twolip Reviews recommended read Holy cow! Greta van der Rol's The Iron Admiral 1: Conspiracy was outstanding, but its sequel is almost beyond compare.... Deception is, in my humble opinion, one of the five best space operas ever written. Hands down!
Loved Deception even more than book number one, Conspiracy. Well-written, fast-paced, a story of substance. You'll read this and its predecessor again and again.
I cannot recommend this book strongly enough. The author combined everything that is great about science fiction-space travel, alien species, politics, military engagements, technology-and everything that is great about romance-a strong, sexy hero and a strong, sexy heroine-into one absolutely breathtaking story.
