Love & Deception is a spinoff novel from my Satan’s Sinners M.C. series. A piece of this story first appeared in the Ridin’ Dirty Anthology, but has now been made into a full-length novel. The timeframe of Love & Deception takes place between Night Sky and Returning Home.CodyFor as long as I can remember, I’ve had this plan, a goal to become number one in the PBR. I’ve never let anything … never let anything or anyone come between me and my dream until that one weekend I had with Sonya Collins. Now, I’m wondering what’s more important: love or those eight seconds.
Sonya “Shug” Collins
I’ve always known my place within the M.C. world with Satan’s Sinners; I’m a club whore. It’s who I am and all I’ll ever be to them. I want more. I don’t fantasize about becoming an Ol’ Lady. My dream is to escape the life I was born into. What’s stopping me? I owe the club and Hanger, and until that debt is paid, I’m stuck. Or so I thought until that one weekend with Cody Sterling, the bull rider who rode into town and showed me what love could really be.
Chayser
I’m in love with Shug, and she can’t even see it. I thought that one day she would open those pretty amber eyes and realize what was in front of her, but Shug’s hate for my world runs deep.
I watched as he drove away, leaving her standing there crying. I’ll pick up the pieces that he broke and put her back together. Maybe then, she’ll love me too.
This book is for 18+ due to subject matter

Love & Deception was soooo much more than I expected. It was my first book written by Colbie Kay and I absolutely loved it. Can’t wait for the next book in the series.
This book is a rollercoaster of emotions, that had be from the start. I couldn’t put it down. I loved the characters, the chemistry between them, and the storyline.
This story had me the minute I found out it was about Shug and Chayser, throw in Vody and holy crap Shug feels she is stuck paying off her moms debt and she does it on her back until Cody shows her she can be just Sonya , when Cody feels she betrayed him he leaves her with Chayser , and Shug takes matters in her own hands I can not wait to see what happens in the next book!!!
Sonya Collins is a twenty-two-year-old college graduate working in a clothing store but as Shug, she is a club girl for the Satan’s Sinners MC paying back a debt. She meets Cody Sterling, a bull rider, at a rodeo in town and they feel an instant chemistry.
Sonya is very hard on herself, making herself pay back her mother’s debt, but this shows what an honorable person she is and although how she does it may not be morally everyone’s choice, for her it was the only way. I really liked her character but hated how hard she was on herself and how little she thought of herself.
Cody was a decent enough guy yet we can say ‘double standards’ apply to him and that really annoyed me. I mean I did understand his surprised reaction but if he was that much in love he would have been more willing to listen. Perhaps his character was representative of the ‘typical male’ and what their reaction would be. It reinforced Sonya’s fears tenfold.
This lighter story is very entertaining and enjoyable, a quick read that leads you into book two, I have to know what happens Sonya’s best friend.

Love and Deception is the first book in the Beautifully Twisted series, which appears to be a spinoff to the Satan’s Sinners series. You do not need to have read the Sinners series to enjoy this book.
Shug is a reluctant club girl in the Sinners clubhouse, believing herself indebted to the club. She basically lives two lives; her public life where she can be anything she wants to be and then her club life, where she just survives. Meeting Cody was an accident but a serendipitous one. Just one weekend will change the rest of both their lives.
While I’m a fan of Ms. Kay, this book wasn’t my favorite. The story felt a little disjointed and the characters were too one-dimensional. Of particular annoyance was Cody’s hypocrisy, given how they met. Finally, the ending was rushed and ends on a cliffhanger. Despite these issues, it’s good to see Shug get her HEA and to see the boys again!

Finally getting Shug’s story! I was so excited for her story as it filled in the background from other books. It was so interesting to figure out why Shug was at the MC and what her debt was to them. I loved to get to know Shug as a person rather than the role she played in the club, and once she meets Cody, I could see her changing. While I liked Chayser and he had good intentions towards Shug, there was nobody for her but Cody. But when Cody finds out her double life and connection with the MC, the question remains if it will pull them apart. I really enjoyed this storyline and the end I couldn’t get enough! I am interested to see if this sparks a new series for Colbie because I would love to get Shug’s best friend’s story after the teaser we got in the epilogue!
I voluntarily read and reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.

This was a great book to start a new series. I loved all the characters in this book. Shug and Cody they were amazing together; I could not put this book down once I started. I love Colbie’s writing and cannot wait for the next book from this great author.
Amazing book. From page one Colbie pulls you in as though you are in the story. Great love story a love triangle really. Once you pick this book up you won’t be able to put it down. I can not wait for the next book to come out.
