About this ebook

"A perfect combination of suspense, mystery and love. A five star read."

t was the phone call she had been dreading. Leah always knew that she would have to go back home one day but she never thought it would be like this. Was her father’s death really an accident or was it… murder? And who is the dark, handsome stranger who looks like the boy she once loved? He says he is Toran James… but how can that be when Toran was reported dead?

As Leah begins to unravel the mystery of her father’s death and follow the trail of clues left for her, she finds that the past holds more secrets than she realised. A sinister Asian dagger. A cryptic message in a concealed safe. A beautiful woman with something to hide. And someone is watching her every move. Someone who wants to silence her… Someone who could be the man who was her first love – a man she is now falling in love with again…

* This is the first part of Leah & Toran's story, which continues in TENDER TREACHERY (Book 2)

Ratings and reviews

Was good, but the ending I think was compromised for the sake of writing part 2. Could barely be bothered to read all of ending, felt dragged out and unnecessary. Apart from that, it was good, I enjoyed it. Though, im very unlikely to read any of the other Tender Deceit books, I'd lost interest by the end of this one.

A nice little trio of stories following a young girl who's life drags her back unwilling, to her birth country Singapore. Makes me want to visit! Nothing too deep or dangerous, just some easy stories with a bit of drama chucked in - I'd recommend :)

would really like to read the whole book as i have really enjoyed the sample read. why do they say its for free and then ask for payment method?!! cannot download the book 😣
