Broken Vow (Brutal Birthright, 5)

Enthralling with impressive chemistry, Broken Vow is not to be missed. It’s the best of two worlds, providing a slow burn romance with an entertaining thriller mystery storyline.

Career-driven Riona is relentlessly focused on making partner at the Griffin family firm. She can’t be bothered with social entanglements, and openly rebels from any behavior society would consider a wifely domestic duty. As the much anticipated partnership announcement nears, Riona doubles down on her workload, which lends to self-isolation and predictable patterns, making her an exceptionally easy target for a notorious hitman. When the attempt goes awry, the family calls in the best to keep Riona safe while they sort out who hired the hit.

Raylan comes on the scene with all the swagger and charm of a southern gentleman paired with the discipline of a soldier. Determined to rewrite Riona’s first impression, Raylan tenaciously pursues the prickly redhead’s favor. Forced to spend every minute of the day together, the two are constantly stepping on toes and testing boundaries. The tension builds as the two continue to circle one another all the while the hitman is closing in.
