Deception: The act of deceiving someone.
That became a pattern in my life. It was the way the chips fell. I'm destined to be that girl that fell for the wrong guy. If he was a liar and a cheat, I found him or he found me. It didn’t really matter how it happened, it just always did.
But when I met Jake, I thought he was different. He was just a guy trying to get by, much like me in a sense. He was happy with the little things in life...he made me feel safe and settled.
That was until I found out that his name, his life, and the man he pretended to be, were nothing but a fraud. He used me to get the answers he needed, and in the process, he managed to take my last ounce of hope and crush it.
I just wanted him gone. I wanted to forget the times we shared, the laughs we had. I wanted to ignore the fact that he’d so easily found a place in my heart.
Only there was one problem... I wasn’t allowed to forget.
I am reminded daily of him. Each morning, I have no choice but to look into the same, beautiful eyes he possessed. I see his smile, and that same shade of dark melted chocolate hair that at one point, I loved running my fingers through.
Every single day I reminded of the fact that the father of my child is nothing more than a man that truly never existed.

Nikki's 4.5 Star Review
I love reading anything written by C.A Harms, she just knows so well how to immediately pull you in to a story and that's exactly what she did with Deception. From the start I was rooting for Blair and Jake, they were great characters and you could only hope they could work through what happens and find their way back to each other.
Blair and Jake are good together they have a chemistry that is off the charts but Jake is hiding a big secret from Blair and when she discovers everything about him is a lie and finds herself in danger she leaves everything she knows behind and starts a new life else where. Jake is determined to find her and prove that he can be the man she thought he was, he's in love with her and will do everything in his power to get her back but Blair has a secret of her own and when Jake discovers it where will that leave them?
Another great read that i would highly recommend.

MEET THE AUTHOR:
C.A. Harms is an avid romance and mystery reader. She's always had a love for books, getting lost in writing and storytelling even as a young girl. She enjoys happy endings and HEA love stories.
She lives in Illinois and enjoys spending time with her husband and two children. She holds an addiction for Starbucks White Chocolate Mocha’s and KitKat when she should really be focusing on water and maybe a fruit or two to make herself feel less guilty, but that feeling quickly passes...thankfully.
She is easy going, fun, and although she may seem like one of the quiet ones at first, you just wait until she gets to know you better...that quietness changes, fast.
