The Ultimate Deception

Reviewed in Australia on 12 December 2015

Verified Purchase

This series is brilliant with a bit of everything, so if you want a story with angst, drama, suspense, hot sex etc this is for you. A military/ slighty political story leaving you on the edge as to who are the goodies & the baddies. I just couldn't get enough of it or put it down.

Great sassy independent h & totally alpha dominant male. There's betrayals, deception & the ultimate question as to the innocence or guilt of certain people. Who & why? I was so totally hooked & loved the characters, their family & friends. There's so much going on I don't want to spoil the experience for you.
Mack just deserved love after everything she'd been through.

I just can't say enough about this extremely well written story that will leave you wondering right up until the end. Highly recommended.

This is a layered story and the characters are poignant with a twist of tragic.
Mackenzie is in damage control with a drive that over rides everything. Despite everything she's somewhat naive.
Tyler is on a job. Mackenzie us his wild card and I liked his vulnerability.
An action packed romantic cocktail.
Dramatic and full of intrigue.

Chasing The Dragon

I have loved everything I've read by TK Leigh & this is no exception! This book blew me away!

McKenzie is independent & guarded. It's how she's lived her entire life. What other's think she is, she really isn't! There were times I wanted to shake her & tell her to just trust Tyler but I understand why she can't!

Tyler is amazing! He's on a mission for the truth & is supposed to do whatever to get it! BUT falling for the girl isn't in the plan!

I didn't see it coming! I was shocked & in awe of the turn of events! I was left hanging & on the edge of my seat for most of the book!

When the truth start to come out, will love prevail? Can McKenzie forgive Tyler for lying to her? I sure hope so! We will have to wait until the 2nd part to find out what happens to Mc & her family when it's all exposed!

Slaying The Dragon

WOW!! This book was an epic conclusion to Deception Duet! Chasing the Dragon leaves off with a hella cliffie!! I really thought I would die from anticipation!! No really! I was dying! The wait was worth it!

Slaying the Dragon starts off with a bang & doesn't slow down the entire book! I say for every TK book, "OMG it's soooo awesome & my fav"! Well....because they ARE!!

McKenzie is soooo strong! This woman & endured more in her short life that 20 people never have to endure combined! I applaud TK for creating such an strong, amazing character!

Tyler is omg! Alpha hotness!! He's a different character than in Chasing the Dragon because we all know what LOVE will do to you! I just adored those two!

The book is action packed & full of suspense! I was TOTALLY shocked & flabbergasted by the turn of events! I never ever saw that coming!

Amazing job! I can't wait for MORE from TK Leigh!

This is one incredible Duet by T.K. Leigh quite honestly...her best to date!

Reviewed in Australia on 24 November 2015

This is one incredible Duet by T.K Leigh quite honestly in my opinion her best to date. The story of Tyler and Mackenzie is so incredibly captivating it will grab you from the very beginning and keep you ensnared until the very last page.

Chasing the Dragon is a spell binding story that weaves a telling tale of lies deceit and danger all rolled into one. We meet Mackenzie Delano who craves control in all aspects of her life and has it until she meets the infamous Tyler Burnham, and everything changes. He invades her every waking thought not to mention her dreams, her life becomes utter chaos. Tyler on the other hand has vowed to never fall in love and has now been challenged with trying to avoid love at all costs all because of one woman Mackenzie Delano.

Honestly, the storyline is absolutely impeccable the connection between Tyler and Mackenzie was incredible, not only could you tell the chemistry was there you could feel it when you read it. I literally got chills reading this book no matter how hard these two fought to stay apart from each other you knew they were meant to be together. The pull that the two of them have is just amazing, despite the odds and all of the circumstances they just cannot seem to stay away. This book is full of action, suspense, drama, romance and some amazing feisty scenes between Tyler and Mackenzie you will see what I mean when you read it!

Slaying the Dragon was the perfect conclusion to this amazing duet! The sheer brilliance that exudes from each and every page will astound you from the moment you start reading this captivating book. Get ready because T.K. Leigh not only creates a captivating story, but weaves a spell binding web that will keep you glued to the edge of your chair the entire time.

Slaying the Dragon opens with Mackenzie's pain and devastation something we are all too aware of from Chasing the Dragon. What I love about T.K. is her ability to connect a reader and a character. I felt Mack's emotions I cried with her, was angry with her, shocked and surprised with her. It was a never-ending roller-coaster ride of emotions and I wouldn't change it for the world. I was hoping to see Tyler right away from the beginning and get right to it and figure this out but T.K. had other plans. Slaying The Dragon is a slow build like a graceful couple on a dance floor you could watch for hours waltzing their way around the ballroom. It was a necessary build for the way the story went and I was not disappointed at all. I feel like everything was wrapped up in a nice tight little package. I didn't think it was possible but I fell even more in love with the characters of this book.

The chemistry between Tyler and Mackenzie is so incredible and you truly want things to work out for them you're rooting for them from the beginning. You will fall in love with Tyler Burnham from the moment your eyes touch the page. He will become your wildest dreams, your guilty pleasure, your indulgence. Your new book boyfriend, other book boyfriends will just have to take a backseat because the younger Mr. B is definitely taking the reigns now.

The ending definitely was my favorite part I love how it was all wrapped up. The twists and turns that T.K. threw in completely shocked me but that's normal she usually shocks me in the most fantastic way. I was glued to my kindle from the moment I opened it and couldn't get enough of this incredibly deceptive world and by the time it was over my head was reeling with the fact that...it truly is over this is The End.

If you haven't downloaded or added this to your TBR List don't waste another moment this is one amazing conclusion to the Epic Deception Duet.

Chasing The Dragon ~
There are no words that I can put in this review that will do this book any justice!

Chasing the Dragon deserves more than 5 stars! I absolutely loved everything about this book! I instantly fell in love with Tyler and all the cockiness he had to offer!

I loved Mackenzie Delano, maybe because I can relate to her in a way! She micro manages her life and doesn't live for the moment. She has experienced heartbreak and the last thing she wants is to find love until she meets the hot Tyler Burnham! I love the connection between both of them and all the banter between them!

Chasing The Dragon took me on an emotional roller coaster. The book had some second chance romance even though it may have began with deception.

I absolutely loved the secondary characters, especially Brayden! I would love to have a friend as amazing as him! I loved that we got a glimpse of Alexander & Olivia (A Beautiful Mess Series) even though I may not have been too fond of him!

I look forward to reading Slaying the Dragon and anything else that TK Leigh writes!

Slaying The Dragon~
Once again TK Leigh delivers an amazing book with the conclusion of Slaying The Dragon. (Deception Duet)

This was one of my most anticipated reads and TK delivered such an amazing conclusion. I was instantly drawn from the first page to the last. I was addicted and I couldn't read fast enough! It kept me on edge with trying to guess what would happen next.

Slaying The Dragon had everything I love to read about. It was full of suspense, deception, angst, mystery, heartbreak, and of course second chances filled with so much emotions. Let's not forget that TK delivers some hot love scenes too! Let's not forget my love for Tyler! I loved everything about him!

I loved all the secondary characters and I hope that TK writes a book about Eli in the future!

Overall, I loved everything about Slaying The Dragon and look forward to reading everything that TK Leigh writes. This definitely is a must read!

the writing is very good and the story-line is well thought out

Reviewed in the United States on 23 December 2015

This is my first book by this author, the writing is very good and the story-line is well thought out. This review contains spoilers.

Book 1 - Mackenzie is opening a restaurant with her best friend Jenna, its their dream. After being burned in a previous relationship she is not looking for a love and leads a very orderly/scheduled life. Everything planned to the minute. She is very closed off and alone. Tyler lost the love of his life and has lived a very lonely life himself. He is given an assignment by his family company to find out information about Mackenzie’s family. He sets out to woo her, make her trust him to get the information but he falls for her. He breaks down her barriers and she falls for him. On a trip to meet his family she overhears Tyler’s brother talking to his wife and finds out the truth, that she is only an asset in their investigation. After confronting Tyler, she tells him if he really does love her then he needs to let her go. This ends on a cliffhanger

Book 2 - Tyler lets her go, he is sent on another assignment by his brother to give her time. A month away turns into 4 until he receives an email from her telling him she still loves him. During this time he is gone, she is going crazy. He has been totally erased from her life, no pictures, someone else living in his house, totally gas lighted. Other than her best friends her only sanity of his being in her life for those 2 weeks is she finds out she is pregnant. Once he comes back to her they reconnect and continue to work on trying to clear her father’s name. Everything comes to a head and her life and unborn baby’s life is endangered when her father shots her to kill the person holding a knife on her. She and the baby make it, her father is cleared and she is reunited with her long lost friend Damien. Nice epilogue set 2 years in the future.
