Tangled Games

Nora and Anderson’s second chance at love will prove to be challenging because they are going back to Anderson’s home. Not knowing what challenges face them ahead, Anderson and Nora make sure that their love and trust in each other is secure and intact but life being unpredictable and at times freaking unfair will test their love for each other. <br /><br />As Nora tries to adjust to royal life, she knows she has Anderson there to help her calm her insecurities but not wanting to take up much of his time as he prepares for the role that has fallen on him, she tries to deal with it. Would the people approve of Norah? Or will she be scrutinized? I appreciated Nora’s strength especially after all that she’s gone through in her short life. Get ready for some royal tea.

Half the time, I’m the one being told what to do, not the other way around.<br><br>Hips swaying, she saunters up to me, her gaze darkening.

10 Royally Fantastic Stars! The greatest story of the year! This book is an incredible breath of fresh air. Pulling every emotion possible from you, this terrific storyline is like no other. When this Author writes, more than a story is created; you’re pulled into the world, you feel every emotion, struggle, every single moment, every laugh, every word. To me, there’s nothing better than that, taking the journey alongside the characters you’ve cheered for, and fell for.

Overall Grade: 4.5 ⭐️<br /><br />Oh, how I’d been waiting for more of Anderson and Nora’s story after T.K. Leigh’s first book of the duet, Royal Games. The way that Anderson and Nora fell for each other in that back, battling against their feelings to hold the other back from the pain of their life, grabbed my heart and made me almost rabid for more of their story. In Tangled Games, Anderson and Nora are engaged and off to Belmont for Anderson to fulfill his royal obligation. From the outset of the story, it’s clear that Anderson is worried over Nora’s willingness to sacrifice her life and anonymity for him. Add to that his medical condition, and there is tension in this story almost from the start. In some ways, Tangled Games reminds me of The Princess Diaries with Nora undergoing training for her new life, and in other ways, it reminds me of the Julia Stiles’s movie, The Prince and Me. All of the qualities of those movies are found in this book except that in one of those texts, there is no prince and in the other, the Prince is a secondary character to the heroine. In Tangled Games, Nora and Anderson are both important as they navigate their own issues. <br /><br />Obviously, Nora must learn to negotiate this new world, and honestly, she does it with aplomb. I love that Leigh didn’t make Nora less than herself to fit into Anderson’s world. When challenged, she stands in her power, and she works to maintain her dignity in the face of the difficulties of this world. She continues to nurture, she continues to maintain a semblance of independence, and she remains beautiful to the core. Nora is my favorite character in Tangled Games because she is the definition of unconditional love which is a contrast to her characterization in Royal Games. It’s clear that the love of Anderson has deepened something in her. <br /><br />Anderson continues to be his usual stalwart self except his challenge lies in confronting the rules of his kingdom along with the difficulties of his illness. As he juggles these problems, he still madly loves Nora, which provides the ease of Tangled Games. Without that decided adoration, this book would a difficult pill to swallow in its angst. <br /><br />However, at its foundation, what makes this book its most beautiful is the love of the female friends. Even as you venture into the bonus epilogue for Tangled Games, Leigh has stayed true the gravity of the friend relationship between Nora, Chloe. Izzy, and Evie. That layer adds more protection for the reader to endure the tangle of Anderson and Nora’s story. <br /><br />If I had one criticism, it would be, that in the midst of their troubles, Anderson’s response to his child, doesn’t align with his character. As we find in so many romances, the hero and heroine split up for a time as a rallying cry to find a solution or a better ending for the couple. In this book, his response to her carrying his child in their separation feels contradictory to his morality in a way. It’s really quite minor and does nothing to undermine the beauty and decadence of their story. <br /><br />In the end, Tangled Games is the royal romance you should be reading today. Right now. I think Harry and Meghan would approve.

Leigh before I read Tangled Games (Dating Games #5). Both books are part of the Dating Games series of interconnected standalones. Tangled Games is a standalone, but I would highly recommend you read Royal Games first, in order to truly appreciate Tangled Games.<br><br>In Royal Games, Nora meets Anderson, both of whom are separately on a self-care road trip across Route 66. Nora needs to heal her broken heart and find herself again. Anderson, a Crown Prince next in line to the throne, needs a physical and mental break from his royal duties on the path to becoming the King of his country. Skeletons of their pasts become a tangled web of emotional obstacles. Nora and Anderson's road trip is truly a journey of the heart and soul.<br><br>In Tangled Games, Nora and Anderson embark on life-changing adventure.  When Nora first met Anderson, he was just a regular guy. Nora has to navigate her life with "both" Andersons - the Crown Prince and the ordinary guy she fell in love with on the road. Nora gets to experience life in the royal limelight, and being the significant other of a Prince isn't always a fairytale. Tangled Web is about Nora and Anderson's path to finding forgiveness, redemption, and happiness.<br><br>The Dating Games series is unputdownable. Royal Games and Tangled Games are romance lovers gold.  If you like angst, heart, and heat, this book series is for you.  One click both books now.  I would one-click the entire Dating Games series.

This book, oh man oh man this book. I have made it no secret that a) I LOVE this author and everything she writes is fantastic and b) Royal Games which is Nora and Anderson's first book holds a very special place in my heart. In the first book they have obstacles and trials to go through and their love persevered. I knew going into this one that my heart was going to be put through the blender because of the amount of space these two characters have taken up in my heart and well lets be honest, Ms. Leigh is famous for taking your emotions on a rollercoaster and boy does she deliver. I honestly can't say enough about this book or this series to be honest. I highly recommend them!! <br /><br />Review by Tabitha

Tangled Games by T.K. Leigh was EVERYTHING I LOVE about a royal romance!! <br /><br />Let me start of by saying im a HUGE TK Leigh fan! I've been reading her since her Beautiful Mess books. And boy does she know exactly how to pull her readers in! <br /><br />Tangled Games head me all over the place. Sooooo much emotion. I couldn't get enough of<br />Nora and Anderson’s story. I ADORE these two. And their journey to love is a must read!! <br /><br />I highly recommend this whole series. Once you start I guarantee you won't be able to stop! <br /><br />

5 stars is just not enough to show just how truly amazing this story is! <br /><br />I have been so in love with Nora and Anderson’s story and was so happy to see Nora finally find her HEA. To get another book of her journey was so exciting for me! I started the boom the second it hit my kindle! <br /><br />It’s so hard to word everything I would love to say about this book! I don’t want to give anything away because experiencing the love between these two s a must! Their love is beyond anything I have read! The emotions Leigh brings out in her writing can not be denied and they drip off the pages in this one! I was an emotional mess at the end but in the best way possible! <br /><br />I am so happy she wrote another book for these two and even more excited I got to “see” the girls! <br />These books were my first by Leigh and have made me a fan of hers for life!

3.5 stars. While I still like Anderson and Nora I didn’t love how they struggled with the Royal elements. It was interesting to hear about the background of what might go on and I’m glad they showed they were a strong couple. It just didn’t have as much pizazz as the others books in the series.
