Review / Release Blitz: The Bourbon Bargain (Southern Gods #2) by Adrian R. Hale

The Bourbon Bargain by Adrian R. Hale is now live!

Paige Fairchild
Southern Belle, Heiress, Virgin No More

I fell for the devil, but our happily ever after is a tarnished thing that's difficult to come by when the fates are involved. I thought my worries were over when I married the ruthless king of the corporate underworld--until he stole my legacy and crushed my dreams of running the hotel empire that's been in my family for generations. Heartbroken, I managed to get away. Just when I've given up hope of a happily ever after, he's after me, demanding we give our shattered marriage a second chance. I don't think my heart can take another catastrophe of the Hayes magnitude. He will always be business first, and I deserve so much more than that. I don't know if he is capable of changing something so ingrained in his nature, not even for love.

Hayes Olsen
Disgraced Businessman, Dream Killer, Utterly Obsessed With His Wife

I finally found a woman worth fighting for, but my boundless greed ruined everything. As my world crumbles with the unwanted separation from my wife, a devastating industrial accident puts me and my brothers in the hot seat, and the return of a business rival threatens to destroy everything we've built. Paige and I have a shot at building something beautiful together--if I can just convince her I'm worth all the risk that comes with it. This will be my greatest challenge yet, and she's worth every painful step to show her I can change.

MY REVIEW

Paige ran when she found out what Hayes had been keeping from her. Now she's ensconced at her bestie's apartment, wondering what the hell to do with herself. Should she have stayed and given Hayes a chance to explain? Did he even deserve that chance? Can she now live her life without him? Pick up the pieces and move on?

Hayes is beside himself after letting his heart run away from him. Paige is gone and he can't find her. If he ever does find her, he'll grovel until the she lets him back in, forgives him and gives him the second chance he knows he doesn't deserve. Seeing her leave has changed him and he'll prove it to her if he ever sees her again. But has he changed enough to take a step back from his ruthless business dealings? He might have to if he wants to keep his marriage secure.

Hayes Hayes Hayes...damn did that man have some serious groveling to do with Paige. His ruthless behavior drove her away and he allowed her to run, not thinking with his heart, instead with his ego. Thank God he got a little talking to by his brothers and went and got his woman back. I admit to wishing he had groveled a lot more, but at least his groveling was very sincere and heartfelt. And Paige was here for it. She is the one who grew quite a bit here, came into her own and sparkled with love and support from her ruthless hubby. He really didn't change too much, just enough to allow Paige to truly have his heart. I can genuinely say I am so glad this couple managed to mend their marriage - they really deserved the happiness they worked so hard for.
