Gideon's Law by Avery Stern
“You’ll be perfectly safe, Molly Rose, once you learn to mind me...”
When her grandparents pass away, young and sheltered Molly Rose Brennan is sent to her last living relative, an aunt in backwoods Kentucky. But it’s a stranger by the name of Gideon who comes to get her at the train station, and after a suspenseful encounter on the drive home, she begins to suspect that the rural town she’s been dropped into holds some dangerous mysteries in its wild hills. It’s what Gideon warns her about, and when she disregards him, it’s what he aims to teach her at the end of a hickory switch, even if it leaves her too sore to ever want to speak to him again.
As it turns out, he’s selling illegal moonshine, and he intends to protect her and her aunt from the rival bootlegging family who want a cut. Molly finds that Gideon is not without his charms and soon enough, she’s falling for him against her better judgement. But can he keep Molly safe when she’s pulled into the moonshine business against his will? And can their newfound love survive an age-old feud between two families when it rears its ugly head?
