I voluntarily read an early copy of this book.

As the middle son, Trey Blackburn dedicates his days to the family business, working to ensure that they remain at the top of the saddelbred industry. His time away from the farm is another story. Not one to get tied up in a long-term relationship, he’s the love ‘em and leave ‘em sort of guy. But Trey’s hesitation to commit might be deeper than not wanting to put in the time and effort. His reluctance may have more to do with the blond beauty who just blew back into town and the things they left in the past that have been neither forgiven nor forgotten.

Holland Rhodes may not have been born into the Blackburn name, but she was once considered part of the family. Having a less-than-ideal home life, Holland spent as much time as she could with the Blackburns, the quintessential dynasty full of love and southern hospitality. Dubbed an honorary member, Holland thought their connection would last a lifetime, but one shocking revelation changed everything.

Having left Shelbyville for a fresh start, Holland has limited her time back in Kentucky for the past decade, avoiding both of her families—the one into which she was born and the one into which she was welcomed. But the death of her father and the uncertain future of the family business has brought Holland back to face her past, one Blackburn at a time.

With old feelings reignited and ready to move their relationship forward, everything crashes to a halt when tragedy strikes. Their painful history in danger of repeating itself, Trey and Holland may find that even true love can’t overcome the darkest days.

Deeply emotional and heartfelt! The conclusion to Sawyer Bennett’s Bluegrass Empires series is guaranteed to take your breath away as revelations and unexpected turns change the playing field for the entire family. Great characters, angst and turmoil to keep us riveted, and so much love and family spirit. The ending, while sweet and touching, was a little lacking for me. I wanted a glimpse into the family settled in and healing a few years down the road, and maybe even some closure on Gabe’s family drama. Overall though, this was a really great series and I enjoyed it whole-heartedly.

I highly recommend this book as well as the entire series to anyone that enjoys a loyal family who has to rally around one sibling after another as drama is met and overcome and true love is found time and again.
