Deception: ‘The act of using trickery to mislead by deliberate misrepresentation or lies.’
When Lili has just about given up hope of ever seeing Sam again, unexpected events turn her world upside down, and she finds herself headed back to Australia. But years have gone by — will Sam even want to see her again?
And what’s with this new addition to their group? How can a strange woman, who claims to be a dhampira from Spain, arrive unannounced and be accepted so readily? Has jealousy blurred Lili’s vision, or is she the only one that can see clearly?
In this final instalment of The Absent Shadows Trilogy, Lili must fight for the life she feels she is destined to live, and for those she calls family, even when a new evil threatens to destroy their world.
At the age of five S M Spencer's life changed when she was plonked onto a black & white pony for a photograph. From that day on all she wanted was a horse. She spent the next eleven years writing stories about the horses she pretended to ride through the rolling hills of coastal California until she got a job and bought her first horse at the age of sixteen.
In the 1980's her life changed again when her employer offered her a role Australia. This was the beginning of an adventure of which she has never tired.
Still living in Australia she now writes from the semi-rural home she shares with her husband, horses, cats and dogs--not to mention the mob of kangaroos that share the paddocks with the horses from time to time.
Her current series, Romancing the Californian Cowboys, is contemporary romance with just a touch of spice, lots of horses, and both Australian and American characters.
Her second series is the Copperhead Creek Australian Romance series. This is light contemporary/rural romance as well as a murder mystery in book six, set within the Golden Triangle outside Melbourne. All books can be read as stand-alone titles.
The first series she wrote is a YA paranormal romance trilogy, Absent Shadows, which is set mostly in Australia.

In this book, Lili has been away for three years and Sam has become more distant. When Lili heads back to Australia with her daughter Ceylona, it doesn't seem like things will be going back to normal. Two new mysterious additions - Rebekah and Angelica - appear in this story. There are many twists and turns for us all too. I enjoyed this book as much as the first two books in the series. If you like YA you should check out this series. * I received this book from the author in exchange for an honest review*
