Blog Tour ~ Chasing The Dragon by T.K. Leigh
The Burnhams are Back!
He’s trying to protect his heart…
She’s a shell of the girl she once was…
Can he chase away the demons threatening to destroy her?
Mackenzie Delano craves control. After tragedy strikes during her freshman year of college, she compensates for the helplessness she felt by micro-managing every aspect of her life, from her business life to her social life…to her love life. But she wasn’t expecting to cross paths with a mysterious man who seems to invade her every thought.
Tyler Burnham has been living his life with one rule in mind…never fall in love. Focusing solely on his career, he is able to remain a detached observer of life… Until a case is dropped in his lap, forcing him to form an intimate relationship with a sharp-tongued woman in order to obtain the location of a man deemed an enemy of the State.
When Tyler finds himself falling for Mackenzie, will he be able push his feelings aside and recover the information he needs? Or will he put the mission and their lives at risk to follow his heart?
Chasing The Dragon is the first installment of a two part series of deception and betrayal where nothing is as it seems.
***Note - Chasing The Dragon is the first book in a two-book duet and is a spin-off of T.K. Leigh's USA Today Best Selling Beautiful Mess series. It is not necessary to have read that series in order to read this duet, but it will contain a mild spoiler from the third book in the Beautiful Mess series, Gorgeous Chaos.***
Chasing The Dragon: /slang/The frenzied drive to recreate that first high, that first taste of addicting euphoria and bliss.
Mmmmm yes the Burnham Boys are back and there is no better high to chase then the high of chasing a Burnham. Tyler is fabulous. He is cut from the same alpha male cloth as his brother, but he is a bit softer around the edges, making him move up as my new favorite “Mr. B” (sorry Alex). “My mother always told me falling in love is a lot like jumping from an airplane without a parachute. There’s no stopping it once you’ve taken that first step.” I am all in Tyler. You make it easy to love. I can see how a whirlwind romance is completely possible with you around. In Mackenzie’s words; “swoon”.
T.K. does a good job of creating a thunderous love story between Mackenzie and Tyler from their first meeting until… Yes well this does end with a cliffhanger, but it is done well. It left me thinking where and when she will pick up with the next book. There was a lot moving parts going on and that is another thing I enjoy about T.K.’s stories, she always has multiple layers going on. You are always wondering what is going to happen, always on alert wondering who did what, who is behind what and when it will all come to a head. I love it. The thunder is coming…I cannot wait for the next lightning strike!
4 Mr. B-Lovin' Stars!!
T.K. Leigh, otherwise known as Tracy Leigh Kellam, is the USA Today Best Selling author of the Beautiful Mess series. Originally from New England, she now resides in sunny Southern California with her husband, dog and three cats, all of which she has rescued (including the husband). She always had a knack for writing, but mostly in the legal field. It wasn't until recently that she decided to try her hand at creative writing and is now addicted to creating different characters and new and unique story lines in the Contemporary Romantic Suspense genre.
When she's not planted in front of her computer, writing away, she can be found running and training for her next marathon (of which she has run over fifteen fulls and far too many halfs to recall). Unlike Olivia, the main character in her Beautiful Mess series, she has yet to qualify for the Boston Marathon.
