Eight years ago, I agreed to marry the man of my dreams.Eight years ago, I realized I’d also given a piece of my heart to his brother.Eight years ago, I made the decision to walk away from both men.What choice did I have? I couldn’t stay with Jessie knowing the flame I carried for Asher burned just as bright.Maybe even brighter.So I did the only thing I could. I walked away with no intention of … thing I could. I walked away with no intention of seeing either man again.
Until I step into a bar in Vegas and see a much more mature, much sexier version of Asher York, a guitar strapped to him, his soulful voice reminding me of everything I’ve tried to forget.
But there’s no forgetting Asher York. And when he looks at me with the same raw hunger, there’s no denying the fire between us still burns.
Can I look past the reason I left all those years ago for one night with him?
There’s only one way to find out.
Let the games begin.

Mind Games is the beginning of what is sure to be a great story. So far, I am loving all of the angst, longing, regret and love that is fighting to burst through.
We got to see these character is previous books but this is their story and oh boy is it so much more than I thought it would be when I first started it. The chemistry won’t stop and I can’t wait to find out more!
FINALLY!!! Couldnt wait to find out what happend to Izzy and Chloe when they were in Vegas!! Hot hot hot that is what this book is!! Filled with emotion and burning desire that T.K. never fails to bring to her books!! Another amazing read!!! Izzy and Asher is my new favorite!!!! Couldnt put it down!!
We are brought back to the night of the blackout and this time around we get it from Izzy’s point of view. All the questions I had, including how the heck Izzy knew where to go once they were stranded, were answered in this book. But of course it left me with even more questions!
TK is killing me with these two. This isn’t the first time we’ve witnessed the chemistry between Izzy and Asher and their chemistry is OFF THE CHARTS. I was on the edge of my seat waiting for that moment where they gave in to their feelings and when it finally happened I gave a little cheer.
This might a novella, but it has a great slow burn with an amazing payoff. And it has a little twist at the end that will frustrate you and make you want to read Dangerous Games. This book is a perfect set up to their full story and I can’t wait to read it!
So, first let me just say I LOVE all of T.K.’s men. They are truly hot, true Alpha and truly a pain in the a**! But that is the man for me!
Asher, well Asher is as smooth as a baby’s butt. So smooth that he was able to steal a woman without really stealing her. (Just read the story) Someone that he should have not been able to get close to, but that undeniable sex appeal was such an attraction then and years later Izzy is still attracted. To a man that should be totally off limits. The chemistry is there, the connection is there and so is the taboo aspect. Because after all . . . he’s your ex-fiancé’s brother.
Now comes the bomb! Wait for it . . . wait for it! Oh, just grab the book and find out for yourself. It’s a 5-star read with a 10-star ending.
I can’t believe I finally know what happened to Izzy and Asher during the blackout. Wow. Just wow. I need more. I need so much more!
This was angsty and hot. Loved it so much.
Mind Games by T.K. Leigh is a
prequel but is chopped full of angst, and passion. The chemistry between Izzy and Asher is HOT!! I mean these two have so much passion between them the tension is so thick and sexy! I cannot wait to dive into the rest of Izzy & Asher’s story!
I need it NOW!!! BRING ON THE GAMES!!!
Wow! Izzy & Asher’s chemistry is explosive! I cannot wait for the rest of their story in Dangerous Games!
Finally, we have Izzy and Asher’s story. From the beginning, I realized that I was going to know an amazing couple whose love story couldn’t end: “And they lived happily ever after …” There is always something that must go wrong, and certainly when it comes to something important in your life.
We return to the old characters, Lincoln and Chloe. But you get to know Izzy and Asher. Will love to win? Will the obstacles lead the way?
The road T. K. conveys to us the chemistry between the two is amazing if I think of this couple in terms of music, their attraction began as Agitato – turbulent. than she tern to a slow as Adagio. and in the end, they frowned like Adirato.
I can’t wait for their full story it sure will be amazing.
Angst… so much angst! I love it! This book was just a prequel to the much larger picture we will be getting soon about Izzy and Asher… Asher freaking York! I need more, now! Not going to lie, a few times I wanted to reach into the book and slap him… yet, other times he was so sweet! When the lights went out in Vegas and the heat turned up, it went way up! I can’t wait to read more!
The last series I read by this author is her INFERNO series. I promised myself to steer away from her, but there are too many authors to remember. The story had potential. However, the velocity of the plot is flat. It flowed, but also seemed like it dragged. I don’t like reading various books before coming to a conclusion, nor do I fancy waiting and having to spend money on future books. There are too many books available with kindle to be suckered into one. I grow bored easily. And, I don’t like being sucked in with one free story and suckered to buy the future stories, especially when the books are not worth it.
TK just has a way with words!! Izzy and Asher meet again after being away for years in Vegas. Asher is the brother of her ex-fiancé and it doesn’t stop the chemistry that they have to each other. They do not have a lot of time to see what kind of trouble they can get into. Its Vegas and anything that happens in Vegas stays in Vegas.
My first introduction to Izzy and Asher was while reading Wicked Games. You do not have to read that book before starting Mind Games but why wouldn’t you want to? In that story, Izzy is in Vegas with her friend Chloe for a bachelorette party and they end up hanging out with Asher at a house he’s staying at. It was obvious from the start that there was some kind of history between Izzy and Asher, the reader just doesn’t get to know what is is yet.
T.K. teased us at the end of Wicked Games by revealing that she would be telling Izzy and Asher’s story and to say I was excited was an understatment. So while we (not so) patiently wait for the release of Dangerous Games, T.K. decided to alleviate our suffering just a little by giving us this novella that shows us what really happened in Vegas between them.
There’s alot of history between Asher and Izzy, because she was once engaged to his younger brother. But Izzy broke it off 8 years ago….for multiple reasons. To be back around Asher now is bringing up so many emotions, for both of them. They’ve always had a special connection, but it was always harmless, until it wasn’t.
T.K. brings all the emotions here in showing us pieces of the past and how it is now colliding with the present. There’s emotion and heat and passion and frustration and sexy times and a whole gamut of things going on in this novella. It may be short but it packed a helluva punch!! And it was great to read and has now ramped up my excitement even more in waiting for the WHOLE story of Izzy and Asher in Dangerous Games.
I can’t wait to see what happens!
So good!! Packed full of angst and undeniably chemistry!! Izzy & Asher were drawn to each other like magnets. I really enjoyed the push and pull that was happening between them until it erupts like a volcano!!
I freaking LOVE any and all books by TK Leigh they pull you in the moment you crack them open. This book I was really excited about because I was dying to see how Iz and Asher, whom we met in Chloe and Lincoln’s story. This world that Mrs. Leigh has created it simply magnificent.
In this book, we get more background information for Izzy and Asher to prepare us for their story. Good lord, I am ready for their story. I am really a sucker for angsty love stories. This book fulfilled my expectations and then some. Izzy was engaged to Asher’s best friend/brother but broke it off many years ago. We get to see the chemistry vs loyalty push the two back and forth between what they want and what they feel is right. But something that good can’t be wrong can it? this book was awesome. Definitely worth the read.
The chemistry in this book was off the charts!!
Blackout! If you read Chloe’s story, you know Izzy and Asher. This is their Vegas blackout backstory. I couldn’t put it down and in desperate need of Dangerous Games! One click this now!
This book is a prequel that brings us back to what happened to Izzy the night Izzy & Chloe got stuck in Las Vegas trying to escape home after attending their childhood friend’s (Hannah’s) AWFUL Bachelorette Party. Their flight back to New York gets cancelled & Izzy calls in a favor to stay overnight at a house Asher York is staying at, who she happened upon seeing at a bar one night when she ventured out on her own in Vegas.
There’s some serious history there between Izzy, Asher & Asher’s Brother, Jessie. Izzy was engaged to Jessie when they were younger, but always had a strong connection with Asher that she tried to hide. She broke off the engagement with Jessie & vowed to never see either one of them again. Now, even though it’s been eight years since she last saw Asher or Jessie, and after reconnecting with Asher, she can’t deny that her feelings for Asher are still as strong as ever. Could she possibly act on them without feeling guilty about Jessie?????
This prequel was FILLED with angst, guilt, passion and, “Oh My God I did NOT see that end coming” moments! It leaves you hanging onto your kindle, hoping that it didn’t just end!! (Though it does! ) I cannot wait to dive into the rest of Izzy & Asher’s story! What a great preview of what’s to come!!
4.5 Angsty Stars!
This one gripped me from the start and left me wanting, no needing more of Asher and Izzy. This one flowed so well, it was fun it was sexy and it had an element of surprise. I cannot say enough good things about this one ~ I simply loved it! Dangerous Games can’t get here quick enough…
I love Asher and Izzy!!! I can’t wait for their full story in Dangerous Games. This is a little of their backstory and what happened between them during the Vegas blackout that was also the start of Chloe and Lincoln’s story. It’s full of sexual tension that finally explodes like fireworks.
Asher is Izzy’s ex-fiance’s brother, but he’s owned a part of her heart for years. She never expected to see him again but fate just happened to put them both in the same Vegas bar. A crazy evening spent together like old times, then a cancelled flight and a blackout lead to both giving in to what they have wanted for years. When the lights come back on, does the bubble burst for good?
Izzy and Asher are explosive, yet somewhat forbidden. I am not sure why, but I love to see a good “should we/shouldn’t we” push and pull. Well written and hard to put down, Mind Games gives you just enough to leave you wanting more.
What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas they say, and as I said before about this series – I’m really happy these stories doesn’t end in Vegas.
I love challenges in love stories. I love the forbidden relationships. I love the drama. But most of all I love how deeply T.k Leigh’s characters feels.
When present meets past sparkles can fly. I can’t wait for the rest of Izzy and Asher’s story.
