About the author

Leigh is a dark M/M romance author from Texas who writes villains of varying degrees. She considers coffee a major food group and her family fears broken coffeemakers. She writes in her spare time, forced to the keyboard by characters entirely too vocal in her opinion and often falls victim to plot monkeys. In between creating mayhem with her characters and friends, her hope is to transport readers to fictional places and provide darkness with a twist.

- Reviewed in the United States on March 19, 2021Morte was everything I could want in a book, but heed your trigger warnings. A couple scenes are intense. With the name of the book and all the events that led up to this one, I kept a body count!
There’s a lot of story to be told and it’s handled in such a way that you keep turning the pages until suddenly you’re out of story. There’s great depictions of mental health in this and some hilarious lines about what I think of as murder therapy.
Not only is the story progressing, but the characters are victims of their own choices and decisions and that plays out beautifully here. This book felt a little different, but absolutely appropriate for where I hope the story is going.
As always, there are some wonderfully written side characters. War, anyone?
This is why I love following a set of characters from book to book. I can’t wait for what’s next.
- Reviewed in the United States on September 4, 2023Wow, what a storyline! The POV keeps changing, but it still will keep you enthralled until you reach the end. And trust me, you won’t see it coming!
- Reviewed in the United States on March 21, 2021This is my new favorite book in the series, but not for the reasons you might think.
Morte is the fifth book in the dark and deliciously sexy Vendetta series. As with each book you need to read it as the fifth book, these are not standalones. Leigh Kenzie does an amazing job of building each book up from the last and you'll be lost if you try to start anywhere but the beginning. Here things that have been brewing in the background for a long time come into play. Here is where the author shows off her talent as a writer. Each book has gotten better and better but this one is truly the best.
Lio is where he belongs and he's ready to embrace everything that is being Allesandro's but to do that, he must let go of the nightmare that's holding his fragile sanity hostage. It's in this book that we truly see how strong Emilio is, as he grows and changes right before our very eyes, becoming the man he was always meant to be.
Allesandro scrambles to help his boy as he prepares to take the war with the Irish to the next level. Here Allesandro uncovers parts of himself he didn't know existed. It's not easy and he fights tooth and nail to stay in denial, but the truth is there, hanging in the shadows, ready to come into the light, Lio and his master only have to take it. This is where Leigh's talent really shows through. As this is what we call character growth. She doesn't change the characters fundamentally, she only allows them room to evolve and become the true people they were always meant to be. Lio and Allesandro slowly begin to understand that what they have between them will only make them stronger.
On the other side of things, the Irish are doing everything they can to take Allesandro and his Family out. Too bad they're too dimwitted to see what's happening right under their noses.
I loved every second of this book. It is hard to read in some parts. Leigh really took to heart the "dark" parts of the story, but it also has a different vibe at the same time. It's not sweet, or light, at least not in our "normal" terms, but it's perfect for the characters.
What I love most about this book is the ending. Each ending took me by surprise for one reason or another but this one tops them all in a different way. It's what elevates this book to my favorite.
This book lives up to all the warnings in place for it so heed those if you have any triggers. The bad guys are truly bad.
- Reviewed in the United States on April 10, 2021This is another great book in this series. Lio heals further from his time with Peter, and Allesandro deals with his growing emotions and affections for Lio. Meanwhile, Brendan still searches for his brother while trying to take Allesandro's empire down.
I loved the twists at the end, and can't wait to see how they play out in the next book.
- Reviewed in the United States on June 18, 2021This book was packed with action & hot sex....it constantly kept changing leaving me wondering what would happen next...the characters are amazing & capture you...I thought this book would end this great series....but no...ugh....I can't wait now to find out what dark & crazy things will happen next...a definate must read....
- Reviewed in the United States on December 10, 2023This series just keeps better and better, it's the type of story where your just not sure who is friend or foe, but it's so much fun trying to figure it out
- Reviewed in the United States on March 19, 2021Calling this series a soap opera is not a dis. I get so involved with the characters, have the feels - I did not cry! - and wonder what's next for them. Dark? Oh, yeah, but you can have a lot of fun in the dark.
- Reviewed in the United States on August 8, 2021I don’t have any chill on waiting for the last book! Such an incredible series and this book held up to the standard from the first 4 books. Absolutely love where this story is going and I am on the edge of my seat to finally know how the story ends.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Pieces are on the Board
Things come to a definite head in this one with Marcus (War) playing a pivotal role.
Brendan shows how depraved and bigoted he is, Emilio grows in strength and Keegan is a great character.

Love this series! Definitely one of my favourite dark reads. Touch slower for me as things fell into place this time. Lio remains emotionally unstable. Sidelined.
“𝒯𝒽𝑒 𝒹𝑒𝓋𝒾𝓁 𝒸𝑜𝓊𝓁𝒹 𝓇𝒾𝓈𝑒 𝓊𝓅 𝓉𝑜 𝓉𝒶𝓀𝑒 𝓌𝒽𝒶𝓉’𝓈 𝓁𝑒𝒻𝓉 𝑜𝒻 𝓂𝓎 𝓈𝑜𝓊𝓁 𝒶𝓃𝒹 𝐼 𝓌𝑜𝓊𝓁𝒹 𝓈𝓉𝒾𝓁𝓁 𝓇𝑒𝒻𝓊𝓈𝑒 𝓉𝑜 𝓁𝑒𝒶𝓋𝑒 𝓂𝓎 𝒞𝒶𝓇𝑜 𝓊𝓃𝓉𝒾𝓁 𝓁𝒾𝒻𝑒 𝒹𝑒𝓂𝒶𝓃𝒹𝓈 𝒾𝓉.”
Alessandro continues to surprise me, the little nuances, his thought process, leadership. Regardless of his often twisted discipline, his own ‘education’, his Boys are his family.
I’m desperately awaiting Guerra’s release. Please read the content warnings. My idea of dark is another scale altogether with dark mmmm psychological thrillers such as this. 4.25⭐️

5.0 out of 5 stars What a rollercoaster!
This book is the fifth in the series and it didn't disappoint or lose any of its stories. Allesandro and his boys are still as ruthless and kinky as ever and there's a surprise addition in this one! I would definitely recommend this series if you like it rough and unpredictable!
