From #1 New York Times bestselling author J.R. Ward comes the final novel in the Bourbon Kings trilogy, where the Bradford family dynasty teeters on the brink of collapse after the murder of their father... and a shocking arrest. First William's Death Baldwein, the head of the Bradford family, looked like suicide. But then his eldest son and sworn enemy, Edward, admitted that he had committed the murder. And being in police custody, Edward regrets not the breakup of his family or the imprisonment... about the woman he left. His love, Sutton Smythe, is the only person he has ever truly cared about, but since she is the current CEO of Bradford Bourbon's largest competitor, no relationship is possible between them. And it’s probably better for Edward to rewind the prison term that looms before him. Lane Baldwein also did not remain the same playboy, who was always in the shadow of his older brother Edward. He had to get used to his new role - the head of the company and family. Lane is convinced that Edward is covering for someone else, so with his beloved Lizzie King, they decide to do their own investigation and... discover a secret that could have a devastating effect on everything and everyone, completely changing the rules of the game. While Lane is trying his best to get to the bottom To tell the truth, Sutton struggles with desire, she is irresistibly drawn to Edward, despite the aggravating circumstances, life in Easterly will never be the same. For some this can be good, for others it can turn into a real tragedy. But despite this complete confusion, there is only one thing that remains unchanged - love, which is able to survive everything, even murder. The book contains real sex scenes and obscene language, intended for 18+
