Award-winning, multi-genre author Victoria Saccenti writes romantic women’s fiction, contemporary romance, and paranormal romance. Not one for heart and flower stories, she explores the strengths and weaknesses of the human spirit and the twists and turns of intimate interactions. Impossible, against-all-the-odds love is her preferred trope. Conflicted and flawed characters seeking redemption are her ideal protagonists.

After thirty years of traveling the world, she’s settled in Central Florida. She splits her busy schedule between family and her active muse at Essence Publishing. However, if she could convince her husband to sell their home, she would pack up her computer and move to Scotland, a land she adores. On a side note, in one form or another, she mentions Scotland in most of her stories.

 

 

 

The cops label him “trouble” on sight. But it’s the kind of trouble she dreams about.

 

Between the Devils’ Spawn MC cut on his back and the blood on his hands, Cutter isn’t surprised he’s landed in police custody for doing the right thing—again. But then the pretty cop who slapped cuffs on him years ago walks into the interrogation room. Only now she’s a detective, and still the brunette bombshell who lives in his Daddy Dominant fantasies.

 

Emily Mayhew knew Cutter was innocent back then, but as a rookie she could only watch him be railroaded straight to jail. Now she needs his help. The Sons of Chaos MC is running guns, drugs, and humans—and they can smell “cop” a mile away. Infiltrating this gang requires the real deal. It also requires a tight perimeter of secrecy to keep her jealous colleagues’ dirty fingers out of it.

 

Working with Cutter, the man who fuels her most sensuous submissive dreams, will be the adrenaline rush of Emily’s life. But if he discovers she’s Middle, will he accept her? Or will it be the distraction that brings the entire investigation, and her dreams, crashing down?

The sweeter the revenge, the more bitter the cost.

Ethan Ashford prefers the private playrooms of his exclusive club to the backstabbing elite society into which he was born. But when his ailing billionaire father asks him to attend a gala dinner, he reluctantly agrees. Only to encounter an eerily familiar face that freezes him in his tracks.

He quickly realizes the woman isn't Joyce, a conniving social climber who almost ruined his family, but her cousin Siena Maynard, a fledgling fashion designer who pings Ethan's Dom radar from across the ballroom. Even better, her uncanny resemblance to Joyce sparks a plan that will satisfy his hunger for revenge—and his craving to have sweet Siena at his mercy.

Phase one: Dig up every detail about Siena, from her dwindling funds to her brother's shady connections. Phase two: Back her into a corner with one way out—to accept him as her sole benefactor in exchange for her total submission.

Ethan fully expected to take diabolical pleasure in Siena's body, tears, and flesh. But he never imagined she'd sink so deeply under his skin, that losing her would destroy what's left of his soul.

One woman holds the key to his destiny—and his people's salvation.

Hagen drags himself to the gates of Hell, body and soul shredded by the bloodlust that consumes all the unmated of his kind.

But Hades himself kicks him out with the bloodlust still prowling, unsatisfied, in his veins.

Bargained away by her parents to Master O, a mysterious and cruel wizard, Faiza serves in his household, keeping her small magic a secret, plagued by wild, confusing visions of a strange suffering male. Then her master brings home a wounded Titanian warrior whose touch sends ice, fire, and desire through her body.

When she learns Master O plans to use Hagen as a weapon to conquer all races, she devises a desperate plan to free him—a plan that opens a portal to a world she's never known. And a destiny entwined with danger that could destroy them all.

4.5 stars

Faiza and her sister, Lilith, were sold to Master O, a wizard. Faiza and Lilith left the rice fields they were working in to get home before the Master arrived. When they reached the SUV the Master exited the vehicle. In the rear, the half-conscious injured man was the same one she’d seen in her earlier vision.

The man felt Faiza’s gift and mentally grasped onto her. When Faiza started to treat his wounds, Master O stopped her, declaring that her sister Lilith would be the woman to satisfy any of the wounded man’s needs-whether it be physical or emotional and ordered Faiza to be his cook.

Ignoring the Master’s orders, Faiza and Lilith administered to his wounds. There was an immediate connection with Faiza, infuriating the Master.

Hagan, son of Firiof and Adalheidis, was proud of his heritage. She had no idea who he was, only that he was a supernatural being. It dawned on Faiza that where they were, what they were doing wasn’t a simple strategy. Master O, who couldn’t be trusted, had a plan in motion, and she was going to find out what it was.

Chock full of fantasy adventure, if you love mythology, and supernatural romance, this is the book for you.

5 Star Review!!

 

Arely Bernal’s dreams had come true in the form of an invitation to the man of her dreams, Kurt Allendorf’s, graduation party. He was her older brother’s best friend, and she had been in love with him FOREVER! Kurt had always been a gentleman to her, patient when following them around, giving her an encouraging wink every now and then. Little did she know that Kurt had been captivated by her also, for a very long time. But she was his best friend’s little sister.

Fast forward 16 years.  Kurt has returned home from Afghanistan with a lot of baggage–walking with a cane and suffering nightmares from survivor’s guilt.  He is also the co-owner of Club Nexus, the exclusive BDSM club in his hometown of Spring Lake, Florida.

Arely has returned from her native Puerto Rico.  She now has her dream job teaching second grade in Nashville, Tennessee. Suddenly, as she was leaving school for the weekend, Arely was snatched out of her car by a man wearing a black balaclava who said, “You scream. You’re dead.” When she wakes up in a cell occupied by other women, she thinks she’s been kidnapped as part of a human trafficking ring. Only after overhearing her captors speaking in Spanish, does she learn that she is not part of the trafficking ring, but a “special order” from a member of her own family! After the women are rescued, everyone is sent home. Except Arely. She has no idea whom she can trust in Puerto Rico and has no family left in the United States. But she does have friends and contacts her childhood girlfriend in Spring Lake who immediately takes her in. Determined to get over her ordeal and get her life back on track, Arely starts looking for a job. Her friend Gabby suggests she apply for a job as a bartender at a special club she and her husband belong to. The club specializes in high-end security and vetting everyone who comes through their doors. She would be safe.

Kurt had not done much of anything since returning from deployment. He quit going to physical therapy and is doing nothing to help heal his leg because his survivor’s guilt and depression told him he deserved to walk with a limp. Running out of reasons to sit home and do nothing, Kurt finally returns to his duties at the club including sitting in on interviews of applicants for jobs. Imagine his surprise to hear Arely’s voice as he entered the room! Just like that, all his teenage fantasies about Nando’s little sister came rushing back full force.

 

Undeniable is not a hard book to read and shouldn’t scare off anyone who has no knowledge of BDSM or is curious. Arely’s in trouble, through no fault of her own, and finds her only safe place is in the employ and arms of her old crush who just happens to be a Dom (Dominant), but not presently practicing the lifestyle. Ms. Saccenti takes the reader on an emotional, non-scary glimpse into the BDSM world without whips, chains, spankings or anything else that the imaginative mind can come up. It’s a chance to see how the real BDSM world works– consensually –and not the way other books and movies portray the lifestyle. An excellent read, especially for the curious of this alternate lifestyle.
