Witnessing the murder of Dave Lanier, thirteen years ago at a boot camp for troubled teens, changed the lives of Tyler Belton, Nick Ryan, and Jules Duquette irrevocably. On a hot, humid night in the Louisiana bayou, the three made a pledge to justice, brotherhood and friendship, then sealed it in blood, binding them together for a lifetime.

Undercover FBI agent, Tyler Belton couldn’t believe the woman he was holding hostage was Gabrielle Lanier. The haunting memories of his painful phone call where she was told of her brother’s death were quickly pushed aside because right now both their lives were at risk and required all his attention. Gabby had fantasized about Tyler for years, but finding herself tied up and kidnapped by her brother’s best friend was a horrible nightmare. Although terrified and suspicious, Gabby’s instincts told her to trust Tyler and follow his lead if she wanted to live to see another day. 

Businessman Nick Ryan dreaded attending the wedding of his brother, Paul, and Caroline Donovan, the woman he loved years ago. Caroline’s heart had always belonged to Nick, but marrying Paul was the only way to keep her home and land. When Paul’s car exploded before their eyes, grief-stricken Nick and Caroline sought comfort in each other’s arms, which quickly rekindled into flames of desire. Numerous attempts on their lives sent Nick and Caroline into hiding until their unknown enemy is captured.

Ex-homicide detective, Jules Duquette has returned to the bayou to track down his cousin’s murderer. During his investigation Jules finds a dead body on the property of his first love, Adrienne Breaux. Adrienne soon finds herself the target of the killer and turns to the man she has always loved for protection. Together, Jules and Adrienne hunt for clues that will lead to the killer’s identity while keeping out of danger’s way. 

BAYOU BLOOD BROTHERS is terrific with the perfect blend of intrigue and romance. Rebecca York, Mesty Hingle and Joanna Wayne do a marvelous job of weaving together three separate storylines that flow smoothly into one exciting book. BAYOU BLOOD BROTHERS is a must for your reading pleasure.
