Deceived by Him By Lorena Daniela Synopsis: She was trained to see through lies. But what happens when the truth is more dangerous than the lie? Sienna Blake, a sharp and ambitious defense attorney, thought she’d seen it all—corruption, manipulation, betrayal.

Sienna knows she should keep her distance, but something about him draws her closer, against every instinct she’s ever trusted. As the case unfolds, Sienna finds herself caught in a deadly web of deception where everyone has something to hide—including Dominic. The deeper she digs, the more she risks becoming not just a lawyer fighting for truth, but a woman fighting for her life—and her heart. When lies turn into obsession and trust becomes a weapon, the question remains: Is Dominic Hayes her greatest mistake… or the only man who can save her?
