The Deceived: A Killing Hours World Novel

Billionaire Rex Dean was the man of my girlish fantasies as a child, even if he was far too old for me.

He was always the most fascinating, intelligent, and handsome man in any room.

Still is.

That doesn't matter anymore.

Now, I know the truth of who he is. How cunning, ruthless, and cruel he can be.

He's a monster in a three-piece custom suit. A silver-tongued devil who will lie, cheat, steal, and crush anyone who gets in his way simply because he can.

But I'm not the same naive girl I once was.

I see him clearly now.

I've clawed my way through Hell and back to pull myself out from beneath the destruction he buried me under.

And I swore an oath. One I will honor even if it costs me my freedom.

I'm hell-bent on retribution, and Governor Rex Dean won't even see me coming.

I'll make him pay for his sins.

He will beg for my mercy, but I will offer none.

Because I, Winter Jensen, am the deceived.
