Bourbon Boys

In Fiasco, Kentucky, there is one rule: never fall for a Foxx brother. Any woman who did, ended up dead-or so the rumor goes. Townies call it a curse. But I've lived it, and I won't survive it again. I'm not a cop anymore, but I've seen enough danger to know that Laney Young, the beautiful stranger who just showed up in my small town, is running from it. She's lying about where she came from and what she's doing here. I don't want her near my family or the quiet life I've made for myself. But my brothers have other plans. Now she's everywhere–working at my distillery, living in our guest house, calling me 'cowboy' and skinny-dipping in my horse trough. But it's the way she dishes out attitude from that pretty mouth of hers that has me wanting things I've sworn to myself I'd never want again. I should push her away, forget how her lips taste, and ignore how she makes me want more out of life again. When her past shows up and mingles too closely with mine, her lies begin to unravel. The rules don't matter anymore. I mess up, dig too far, and get too close. Only two things have the power to keep her safe now: bourbon and lies.

Single-dad Lincoln Foxx wants nothing to do with Faye Calloway, but when she turns up back in his small town with a dangerous agenda, he can't stay away–in the second book in a bourbon-infused romantic suspense trilogy featuring mystery, murder and lots of spice. FEATURING DUET NARRATION In Fiasco, Kentucky, there is one rule: never fall for a Foxx brother. Any woman who did, ended up dead–or so the rumour goes. It wasn't just a rumour, it was my reality. I buried my wife along with too many secrets surrounding the night she died. Now, I'm a single dad with two priorities: raising my two girls and making great bourbon. But when Faye Calloway returns after I ran her out of my town–looking like a fantasy on stage and nothing like the cop she was trained to be–I know for a fact that she's hiding more secrets than the one she blackmailed me to keep. And I'm becoming distracted by the teasingly beautiful burlesque dancer with a hidden agenda. But as secrets begin to unravel and she puts herself in danger to right the past, the rules stop mattering. Only two things will allow me to protect my family and the woman I love: bourbon and secrets.

In Fiasco, Kentucky, there is one rule: never fall for a Foxx brother. It isn't just small-town lore or neighborhood gossip-I've witnessed what happens when the men in my family get too comfortable and fall. And maybe that's history now, but the responsibility to lead our family business and maintain our standing as the world's most sought-after Kentucky bourbon is on my shoulders. Few others know the lengths I'll go to ensure the safety of my business and family. Blurring morals and manipulating rules are all just part of the game. There's only one problem: Hadley Finch. My brother's best friend, Fiasco's small-town princess, an honorary part of my family, the daughter of a deplorable businessman-she's the woman I swore to stay away from in a bargain I never wanted to make, and now . . . she's my wife. Hadley's wild attitude and smart mouth have always been impossible to ignore. She's the only person who pushes every last shred of my resolve. When she peels off her clothes, shares her desires, and uses a nickname that will be my undoing, the chaos that led us here falls away. There are a decade's worth of secrets and lies between us, but if we can both get what we want-I'll keep Foxx Bourbon, and she can escape the fallout from her father's sins-then none of that matters. Before she was mine, I was fine protecting her from afar. It's never been about a happy ending or being her hero, but now, I crave both. Call it the Foxx curse or penance for my sins, but when all of it explodes and the lives of those I love are threatened, there are only two things I have left to bargain with: bourbon and proof.
