Kirstin's Review: 
 The Bourbon Kings by J.R. Ward 5 out of 5 stars 
 Wow , where to start? First let me say that JR WARD is more than just a go-to author for me. The Black Dagger Brotherhood is one of my absolute favorite series of all time! 
 The Bourbon Kings was like a Southern Soap Opera on steroids. It centers around four siblings and all of the drama involved in being a rich, southern family. 
 In this book we meet three of the four siblings and get a glimpse of their demons and relationship woes, although like the BDB, this first book mostly focuses on the brother Lane and the love of his life Lizzie, who happens to be part of the help working in his family's mansion. 
 The chapters alternate between the different characters and their points of view, focusing on the various couples and their storylines that are all quite depressing in the amount of miscommunication, subterfuge, and intentional heartbreak. 
 Thank goodness at least one couple sorts out their crap in the end! Wonder which couple will resolve their issues and finally see the light in the next book?! 
 Enjoy!
