The
Bourbon Kings [The Bourbon Kings #1] by J.R. Ward
Expected
Publication: July 28, 2015
Publisher:
NAL
Synopsis
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.
Why I Can’t Wait
First

romance and drama what more can you ask for? Honestly I didn’t even know about
this new series until last week when I received a copy and now I’m all in!
