Arcane Deception is the story of Arcanist Kate and Feral talent Mark. Mark is working undercover and Kate and her Grandfather find themseleves in danger from the people Mark is trying to take down. Along the way Mark finds himself falling for Kate and vice versa. The only question is, can he protect her and will she forgive him when she learns the truth.
Arcane Deception is fairly good. The romance could have been fleshed out a bit more. The focus was more on the plot and bdsm moments. I liked, Eli the Grandfather. His and Kate's struggle with his condition tugged at my heartstrings. I was more moved by Kate's relationship with her Grandfather than Mark.
Overall, I liked it for the most part, but I wouldn't read it again.

This is another great read and I think that the story was well done. I had someone with dementia in my life and the story rings true on that aspect. I really love the way Kate and Mark came together as a couple. I Loved this Story! No Spoilers!.
