A scorching, emotional, suspenseful romance about secrets, second chances and the kind of love that hits harder than whiskey – from the beloved author of the Bourbon Boys series.

In Rumor, Tennessee, the Crowne women are at the centre of every whisper of salacious gossip. Everyone knows you can count on them for a shot of whiskey and a wild night, but their best kept secret is how they deliver quiet revenge . . .

I survived a living nightmare. Forced to stay away from my sisters, I have to hide who I am and start over again. Until a sexy stranger messed everything up – a charming jeweller with a sinful smile and far too many questions.

Now, I’m back in my hometown, hiding my past and trying not to drown in the pressure to be the old me. Especially once I discover that the rumours swirling around my family aren’t the work of bored townies, but hidden truths. And then he turns up again. 

Between a dead body, a missing cop and a job that’s connected him to my family, Julian Colton insists on staying in town. I should keep my distance, but the thing is: even with layers of secrets between us, he soothes my anxious thoughts and feeds my touch-starved, broken body.

When his past catches up with him, and mine threatens to repeat itself, it’s rumours and whiskey that’ll save us.
