Decadent Deceptions RECOMMENDED READ!



HAPPILY EVER AFTER REVIEWS,
Review Posted Here

FIVE STARS AND RECOMMENDED READ

BUY HERE: NOBLE ROMANCE

Loved, loved, loved this book! Did I say I loved this book? I’m in awe of Keta Diablo’s gifted writing ability. She paints such vivid pictures with her words, and takes us into a beautiful romance with no lulls or heavy back story. The 19th century time period was given justice in Decadent Deceptions and whisked me away to another world with the imagery, setting, and brilliant dialogue between characters.

Olivia has loved Morgan as long as she can remember, but refuses to admit it. She’s hot headed and stubborn…and a character I adored. In fact, I fell in love with the entire cast of characters, that became so real as I read. From Olivia’s brother, and sister-in-law, to the irresistible Morgan, each character brought a unique spice to the story.

Morgan, the brooding, distant love interest was more than delectable! He was a mixture of raw sensuality, and erotic domination. You can’t help but fall in love with him. The sexual tension, and sex itself was hot! We get a full sampling in this tasteful erotic tale.

Decadent Deceptions is a historical romance that follows Olivia’s journey to capture the attention of Morgan. Her path leads her into a brothel in attempts to arouse jealousy, and eventually into the sights of a psychopath killer.

By the end of this book, I was teary eyed from the romance that grew and blossomed throughout the book. The mystery woven within the pages adds the perfect amount of tension.

If you love historical romance, or wanted to start with a great one…run and buy Keta Diablo’s Decadent Deceptions. You won’t be disappointed. I will be thinking about this book for a long time to come, and look forward to more work by this exceptional author.

CROSSROADS: Shadowland Four Stars!



CROSSROADS: Shadowland, FOUR STARS!

Another great addition to the Crossroads series. Keta tends to dish it out on a platter, serving it up to give you just a taste with an unexpected twist and leaves you dangling with want for the main course and you haven't even hit on the dessert yet. In this one Frank heads back to New Orleans with Rand to crack the case of two boys gone missing at a local cemetery, only to discover there's more to this that meets the naked eye. The whole ghost story is freakish, keeps you captivated with the added touch of a nun into the mix and keeps your reading mojo going throughout the story. But as it goes with Frank and Rand and it always does, what will transpire in this book will get your temperature soaring to unhealthy levels and I'm not just talking about the steaming sex scenes. 

This is all you’re getting on the book outta me. You'll just have to go read it yourself. :snickering: Now...I think I need to go bang down Keta's door for the next installment of Crossroads before I chew my bottom lip off!

Snippet of first review: I want more from Keta Diablo. Her writing voice is unique and captivating. She allowed me to become a part of her characters’ lives. I journeyed with them through their initial attraction, budding relationship, and savored the satisfying conclusion. If you are a faithful M/M romance reader, or curious to indulge for the first time, you must pick up Hot and Sticky the moment it’s released. Loved it!

The Devil’s Heel.
 
Snippet of first review: Keta Diablo’s characters have a depth not often found in such a short m/m story. While they have intense chemistry and the intimate scenes are written with passion and the fireworks such a relationship generates, their emotions are not neglected. I love a good swashbuckler, and this certainly qualifies. I also love a writer who can make me share the feelings of her characters as the story unfolds. Five Diamonds, Got Romance Reviews.

DECADENT DECEPTIONS - New TOP Review!


Rating: 4.75 Diamonds

Noble Romance Publishing BUY LINK: https://www.nobleromance.com/ItemDisplay.aspx?i=20 

Publication Date:2008, Molly Contest Finalist
ISBN: 978-1-60592-013-9
Genre: Historical Erotic Romance, Length: Novel
KETA'S HAUNT  Keta's Web Site

The problem with Miss Breedlove’s daring plan, is that if it goes awry, her reputation will be ruined and no respectable gentleman will have her, putting her in the worst possible position. Morgan Gatewood, for his part, has been wanting to make Olivia his for a very long time, and will let nothing stand in his way.

Decadent Deceptions is a thoroughly sensuous historical erotic romance. Keta Diablo’s rich backgrounds set off the antics of her characters to perfection. With all the misunderstandings of a good romantic comedy and a terrifyingly menacing subplot, the reader will be entranced throughout.

I always enjoy Ms. Diablo’s work and this book was no exception. It made me realize how versatile she is and look forward to her next release.

Review:
Why do I get so excited when I see that Ms. Diablo has a new book available? Maybe it’s because I just know her characters are going to grab me into their world and take me on an adventure, one that I won’t want to end. On the other hand, maybe it’s because I know that at least one of her characters is so very Alpha with real feelings. Whatever the reason is, I was thrilled when given the chance to meet Rogan and Drew.

Read full review here: PAPERCUT REVIEWS

About Holding On To Heaven:


When the blazing fires of revolt ravage the countryside, Lauren and Sage McCain are trapped amid the flames of destiny. The Civil War has crumbled a Nation, and the Dakota Sioux uprising has turned southern Minnesota into a violent battlefield.

Holding On To Heaven is a story of love between two men and a woman, love between siblings, and love that crosses all boundaries and forges all cultures.



Snippet of Review: 


An Excellent Read! A Real page-turner!

Keta Diablo really knows how to keep you on the edge of your seat wondering what will befall the main characters. Lovers of historical fiction will love this one! I’m a big fan of the Civil War era and it’s nice to see this as the backdrop for this novel. I don’t think it’s written about as much as it should be in the historical romance world. Holding on to Heaven has it all -- adventure, desire, and the indelible spirit of human hope and perseverance. I enjoyed it and hope this might be the start of a series where we can see some of these characters yet again!

4 hearts!
