Bourbon & Secrets by Victoria Wilder

In Fiasco, Kentucky, there is one rule: never fall for a Foxx brother.

Any woman who did, ended up dead. It wasn't just a rumor. 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 above everything else: raising my two girls and making great bourbon.

But when Faye Calloway returns after I ran her out of my small 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.

While everyone is focused on the teasingly beautiful burlesque dancer, I'm distracted by the woman with a hidden agenda. The smart-mouth, who says what she wants. The instigator, who prefers a very specific way to drink her bourbon now.

As secrets begin to unravel, I realize she's fiercely protective of the ones she loves. When she puts herself in danger to right the past, the rules stop mattering.

Only two things have the power to keep my family from falling apart and losing the woman I love-bourbon and secrets.

Vibes from Meena:

Low lights, ice clinking in bourbon glasses, sultry tension over a bar top, hints of rebellion, faded lipstick on glass, and secrets thick in the humid air. Bold, brash, and unbothered by polite company
