Bourbon and Secrets is the second story in the Bourbon Boys series. It follows middle brother Lincoln Foxx and Faye Calloway. After an incident give years earlier started their relationship off on a bad foot, Faye's return to town is not exactly celebrated by Lincoln. However, love and dislike are certainly two sides of the same coin for these two!
I really enjoyed this audiobook and absolutely blitzed through it in a few days! I thought there was so much chemistry between Faye and Linc, it was sizzling at times. I also loved the complicated emotions that both MCs had to deal with and their character growth was really clear.
Faye was a great character. She's so protective of those she loves, often at the expense of herself. But this isn't her only trait! I loved her self assurance, typified by her burlesque show, and her self worth.
Linc. Where to start? I do love an MMC with glasses and he certainly would make it onto an all-timers list! Although he starts off adamantly against Faye being in town, when he falls, he falls hard! He was a man obsessed and I am always here for that! I also loved seeing him as a parent, not always getting it right, but always trying his best.
I enjoyed the suspense in this story, however I don't think it was as strong as the first book. Whilst there were twists and turns, it wasn't as nerve-wracking as Bourbon and Lies for me!
The narration was performed in duet style by Lee Samuels and Megan Wicks. I thought overall the performances from both were really strong! They gave good variation between characters and had really good pacing.
Overall, I really enjoyed this book and can't wait for the final Foxx brother!
