Zabrina Cooper and Myles Eaton had known each other since they were kids, so it was no surprise that their relationship turned romantic and plans for marriage were soon to come. Neither Zabrina nor Myles could ready themselves for the sham that would tear the two apart in Rochelle Alers’ Sweet Deception.

Zabrina loved her father dearly; he raised her alone after the death of her mother. So when she walked in on what seemed to be a death threat from Councilman Cooper, along with blackmail if Isaac, Zabrina’s father, would not keep his mouth shut about what he had seen. Zabrina consented to marry the councilman so that her father would live and ultimately broke off her engagement to Myles.

10 years would go by before Zabrina and Myles would see each other again. So much had taken place, and yet there was something that would always tie Zabrina and Myles together that she would keep a secret along with the reason why she called off the wedding.

I enjoyed the initial relationship and exchange between the characters, but I had a hard time with why it took so long for things to be revealed. Aside from that, I still recommend this book to readers of romance.
