Baalboden has been ravaged. The brutal Commander's whereabouts are unknown. And Rachel, grief stricken over her father's death, needs Logan more than ever. With their ragged group of survivors struggling to forge a future, it's up to Logan to become the leader they need—with Rachel by his side. Under constant threat from rival Carrington's army, who is after the device that controls the Cursed One, the group decides to abandon the ruins of their home and take their chances in the Wasteland.
But soon their problems intensify tenfold: someone—possibly inside their ranks—is sabotaging the survivors, picking them off one by one. The chaos and uncertainty of each day puts unbearable strain on Rachel and Logan, and it isn't long before they feel their love splintering. Even worse, as it becomes clear that the Commander will stop at nothing to destroy them, the band of survivors begins to question whether the price of freedom may be too great—and whether, hunted by their enemies and the murderous traitor in their midst, they can make it out of the Wasteland alive.
In this daring sequel to Defiance, with the world they once loved forever destroyed, Rachel and Logan must decide between a life on the run and standing their ground to fight.

My Stance:
While I understand I haven't read the first book, Defiance, which is next on my list of books to read after I finish the Unbecoming of Mara Dyer. I honestly can't wait to get into this book and start the series. I have been looking forward to this book for a while and while I haven't been able to get around to it, I have had it close to the top of my need to get around to reading list.
Deception is of course the sequel to Defiance, and from what I have read from other bloggers, picks up shortly after Defiance. Rachel and Logan seem like a great romance, and immediately I am thinking this book has a similar background message. The relationship between the two are going to be tested and strained as they are pushed to the extremes, and that's part of any relationship. I find it unique that the synopsis mentions that they both need each other, in any relationship yous should always rely on the other, but don't depend completely on them. I am curious on the balance in this novel.
