Synopsis
Emily Kate Boudreaux runs a restaurant located on a bayou in Texas, because it’s what her family expects of her. But she’d rather be painting. Her resentment is at an all-time high when sexy chef Connor Rikeland walks into her life and turns it upside down. Soon, Emily Kate’s restaurant is a roaring success, she has time to paint to her heart’s content, there’s a hunky guy warming her bed, and she’s having visions of happily ever after.
Everything is just about as perfect as it can be – until Emily Kate’s brother comes into town and takes an instant dislike to Connor. And she soon learns it isn’t just because his baby sister is sleeping with the man. Connor has a few secrets, and when Emily Kate finds out, she must decide what’s real, what’s a lie, and what’s worth risking her heart over. Because deception or not, life with Connor is delicious.
Now here's a story that grabbed my interest right from the start with a plot that I've not seen done before, a bit of suspense and drama, and fun characters that have depth and that are easy to identify with.
Connor is one of those guys who means well, but just doesn't necessarily go about things the right way when it comes to going after his dreams--which is his number one goal (well, at least until he meets Emily Kate). A natural hot-and-sexy guy that all the ladies go gaga for, he also has that boyish charm that shines through when he it comes to his cooking.
On the other hand, we have Emily Kate who has put aside her dreams for the time being to run the restaurant that her grandfather left her when he passed away. She's sweet and when Connor basically barrels into her life, the two of them come together like it was meant to be, with fantastic chemistry and personalities that complement each other.
There's lots of excitement when things from Connor's not-so-distant past come back to the forefront, bringing some action and suspense to the story and threatening Connor and Emily Kate's budding relationship. It kept my attention focused on the story, and had me rooting for everything to work out okay for the two of them.
Delicious Deception was a fun story that now has me putting the rest of this author's books on my TBR list. A truly enjoyable read, I give this 4 sweet and sexy stars, and would recommend this to contemporary romance lovers 18+ (for those hot and sexy adult intimate scenes).

About the Author
Tami Lund likes to live, love, and laugh, and does her best to ensure the characters in her books do the same. After they’ve overcome a few seemingly insurmountable obstacles first, of course.
When she’s not doing that, she’s mom to two (growing far too fast) kids and a furbaby who conveniently forces her to exercise at least once a day. She’s also a wife to her own knight in shining armor who proposed in a way worthy of a romance novel. She loves to garden and every year attempts (usually in vain) to keep her lawn green through the month of August.
Tami is multi-published, both self- and with a few publishers, including Crimson Romance, Liquid Silver Books, and Soul Mates Publishing.
Chances are, there is a new book coming out soon. Be sure to stalk her on social media, so you know when.
