Synopsis

In Fiasco, Kentucky, the Foxx family makes bourbon, and everyone knows the rule about the Foxx brothers: never fall for one, because the women who do end up dead. The family calls it a curse.

Grant Foxx is a former cop who left police work for the family distillery and swore off the kind of love that already cost him once. Then Laney Young starts working there. She is a newcomer with a secret, and Grant can tell she is lying about where she came from and why she is in town.

As the two are thrown together at the distillery, the attraction between them grows, and so does the danger. Her past starts to catch up with her, and the curse over the Foxx name stops sounding like a rumor.

Bourbon & Lies is the first book in Victoria Wilder's Bourbon Boys trilogy, a high-heat, slow-burn romantic suspense set in a small town, with a mystery where the body count is real. Each brother gets his own book, followed by Bourbon & Secrets and Bourbon & Proof.
