The Brothers Hawthorne
The Brothers Hawthorne (The Inheritance Games #4) by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Genre: Young Adult Mystery
Publishing Date: August 29, 2023
Synopsis:
Grayson Hawthorne was raised as the heir apparent to his billionaire grandfather, taught from the cradle to put family first. Now the great Tobias Hawthorne is dead and his family disinherited, but some lessons linger. When Grayson’s half-sisters find themselves in trouble, he swoops in to do what he does best: take care of the problem—efficiently, effectively, mercilessly. And without getting bogged down in emotional entanglements.
Jameson Hawthorne is a risk-taker, a sensation-seeker, a player of games. When his mysterious father appears and asks for a favor, Jameson can’t resist the challenge. Now he must infiltrate London’s most exclusive underground gambling club, which caters to the rich, the powerful, and the aristocratic, and win an impossible game of greatest stakes. Luckily, Jameson Hawthorne lives for impossible.
Drawn into twisted games on opposite sides of the globe, Grayson and Jameson—with the help of their brothers and the girl who inherited their grandfather’s fortune—must dig deep to decide who they want to be and what each of them will sacrifice to win.
My Review
The perspectives of Grayson and Jameson were really fun to read, especially seeing Avery from a different POV. I actually liked this more than I did the inheritance games series. It was interesting because both brothers were going through very different situations, but both were interesting and a game of sorts. There was a moment in the book where I was really frustrated, but then things get turned around and you feel a strong sense of victory with the characters. In Jennifer Lynn Barnes I trust.
