review 1: I'm not sure whether to consider this historical fiction or fantasy. It was a delightful mix of both, and I thoroughly enjoyed reading it.I loved getting to have the Regency-esque setting, while at the same time getting to read about these men having what felt like true HEAs because they didn't have to hide their relationships from anyone.I think my favorite story in the set was "Deceived," the first story--likely because of the fairy tale quality brought in with the three days of the masque and the secretary getting the prince. I just adored both Rae and Benedict, and I found myself wishing their story would continue rather than starting a new story.I also very much enjoyed the last and longest story, "Highwayman," but had a harder time getting into that one. I found m... moreyself getting frustrated about half way through that we were just encountering more and more mysteries without any being solved--or even finding any clues about any of them. I loved how it all worked out, though, and decided that the end more than made up for the confusing and frustrating middle.The rest of the stories were also fun, and I did like that the characters overlapped among all the stories.
review 2: I finished Deceived last night and I really enjoyed it! I loved how the book was made up of 5 short stories that all intertwined together somehow. I love series because we can get more of characters I love so this was cool to have characters make cameos in the other stories. I really enjoyed each one a lot but my favorites were Scandalous and The Highwayman. My overall favorite characters were Gideon and Tem. This was a cool historical type book. I give it 4 solid stars. I had read one or 2 shorts by Megan Derr before but I am glad I got to read more. I really enjoy her writing! less
