Dillon Tanner, hell-bent on revenge after being wrongly accused, abducts pretty flapper, Lily Stonecipher, hoping she holds the key to who’s behind a takeover attempt.
Kit Kittrell yearns to experience the freedom of the roaring twenties, from the thrill of speakeasies to the daring of bootlegging. Will town bad boy, Alex Stooksbury, step in to rescue her from certain disaster?
As the public’s thirst for spirits remains unquenchable, their lives and loves become inextricably entangled in the prohibition era.
Excerpt
“Good girl, what a find.” Her brother kissed the top of her head.
“Damn, Tom, how can you say that? We’re lucky she’s even with us tonight, not down in a secret hideaway nobody knows about.” Alex slammed his fists into his jacket pockets.
“Nobody needs to lose their cool,” Dillon warned.
“She’s okay, Alex. Take it easy. Now tell us again what you told Reggie.” Her brother waited until she pulled out a dining room chair. She plopped down and unbuckled her shoes.
“Look, you told me to be intentionally vague. He knows Alex is getting paid for something on Friday. Right now, he thinks he might get his hands on a diamond necklace. But as soon as he puts two and two together about a delivery like you boys think he will, he’ll be after the bigger prize. The whiskey. So all the other little stunts you have planned must fall into place.”
“They will. They have to. But I think he’ll stick with Friday. Ole Reggie will want our truck even more now. He’ll realize he must move the hidden whiskey before anyone else, besides you, finds out about his hiding place.” Dillon looked straight at Kit.
“Exactly. Reggie knows she knows.” The veins on Alex’s neck stood out.
“Well, I’m headed to bed.” Maybe Tom would drop the big brother act for once and not mind Alex sleeping with her instead of down the hall in the guest bedroom. You never knew. Men.
