IMPOSSIBLE PUZZLES. SHOCKING TWISTS. IRRESISTIBLE ROMANCE.

Welcome to the explosive new Inheritance Games mystery that will keep you hooked until the very last page . . .

A FAMILY SECRET . . .

Grayson Hawthorne was raised as the heir apparent to his billionaire grandfather, taught from the cradle to put family first. So when Grayson's half-sisters find themselves in trouble, he's determined to care of the problem - efficiently, effectively, mercilessly. And without getting emotionally involved.

AN IMPOSSIBLE CHALLENGE . . .

Jameson Hawthorne is a risk-taker, a sensation-seeker, a player of games. So when his mysterious father appears and sets him a challenge, Jameson can't resist. Now he must infiltrate London's most exclusive underground gambling club, which caters to the rich and the powerful, and win an impossible game of the highest stakes. Luckily, Jameson Hawthorne lives for impossible.

HEARTS AND LIVES ARE AT STAKE . . .

Drawn into twisted games on opposite sides of the globe, Grayson and Jameson - with the help of their brothers and the girl who stole both their hearts - must dig deep to decide what each of them will sacrifice to win.

The Brothers Hawthorne was my least favourite of the Inheritance Games series and I would have criticized it as an unnecessary cash grab if I didn't know there was a fifth instalment to continue this story, otherwise it felt disruptive to the integrity of the original trilogy. We're only focusing on two brothers, Grayson and Jameson, and even though Avery was in this, I missed her as the main lead. Their stories were separate for the most part and despite Grayson's feeling more relevant, Jameson's was far more fun. I loved the mystery and exclusivity of the game he played; his chapters were exciting. I liked all the new characters introduced on Grayson's side; they all earned their time. It was a decent listen and I will be picking up the next one, mostly in hope for a better ending for some of these characters.

Decent Listen, But Not My Favourite

Didn’t like the new narrator. Got so used to the female voice that had read previous books
