Bourbon & Lies
Victoria Wilder
The Bourbon Boys #1
A grumpy ex-cop and the lying stranger hiding at his Kentucky distillery can't stay away from each other.
Description
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.
