Contemporary Romance
The Bourbon King Series
By J.R. Ward
Title: The Bourbon Kings
Series: The Bourbon Kings #1
Expected Publication: July 28, 2015
For generations, the Bradford family has worn the mantle of kings of the bourbon capital of the world. Their sustained wealth has afforded them prestige and privilege—as well as a hard-won division of class on their sprawling estate, Easterly. Upstairs, a dynasty that by all appearances plays by the rules of good fortune and good taste. Downstairs, the staff who work tirelessly to maintain the impeccable Bradford facade. And never the twain shall meet.
For Lizzie King, Easterly’s head gardener, crossing that divide nearly ruined her life. Falling in love with Tulane, the prodigal son of the bourbon dynasty, was nothing that she intended or wanted—and their bitter breakup only served to prove her instincts were right. Now, after two years of staying away, Tulane is finally coming home again, and he is bringing the past with him. No one will be left unmarked: not Tulane’s beautiful and ruthless wife; not his older brother, whose bitterness and bad blood know no bounds; and especially not the ironfisted Bradford patriarch, a man with few morals, fewer scruples, and many, many terrible secrets.
As family tensions—professional and intimately private—ignite, Easterly and all its inhabitants are thrown into the grips of an irrevocable transformation, and only the cunning will survive.

Stunning cover with an interesting blurb that seems different. Love family in my reads. I am all about secrets.
Have you already been eyeing The Bourbon Kings?
I've read her JBird books and it's good. I'm assuming this will be a blended one, like a dark romance kind of thing.
ReplyDeleteHave yet to read any of her books writing as JBird. That would be good for me if this is like a dark romance.
DeleteI want to read this one! Sounds like it will be good!

ReplyDeleteI hope I get a chance to read it when it first comes out.
DeleteI'm really excited about this one. I got it a couple months ago but still haven't had the chance to read it which kills me. Hopefully in the next week I'll be able to. I've got my fingers crossed :D
ReplyDeleteAnna I look forward to your thoughts.
