Devil's Cut by J.R. Ward
5.0
Devil's Cut by J.R. Ward is the third and final book in the Bourbon Kings trilogy. I'm a huge fan of J.R. Ward's Black Dagger Brotherhood, so therefore HAD to read this trilogy as well. I am SO glad I did!
We take off right from the ending of Angel's Share. True to Ward's BDB world, we have more than one storyline going on throughout the book. Sometimes that makes it hard to read a book, but it was really necessary in Devil's Cut. We follow Lane, Edward, Max and Gin through the aftermath of William Baldwine's death. The mystery of who truly killed William is still in question. Edward admits to it, but we all know he didn't do it and is taking the blame for somebody else. Who though?!
The family's life has been turned upside down and each of the children are trying to rebuild their lives without all the riches they once had. In fact, they are trying to keep themselves from basically living on the streets. Lane, who is trying so hard to keep things together, seems to be constantly running on adrenaline. He's the only one left that is not in the middle of a major crises.
At the end of Angel's Share, we see Gin getting things together for Amelia. She just knows that Richard is going to kill her. Gin continues to grow as a person and a mother throughout Devil's Cut. She makes pretty big reveals despite what those revelations will do to her and her life.
I think I could go on and on with this book. Possibly the whole trilogy. I was drawn into this story and felt every bit a part of the drama that was unfolding. I laughed and yes, I cried. This was one of those reads where you just want the story to go on forever, even though we've had the HEA. This is definitely a recommended read!
