Lust & Loyalty by Shelly Ellis 
Series: A Chesterton Scandal Novel #3
It s a life of high-profile drama for the powerful Murdochs of Chesterton, Virginia, and they just keep the scandals coming...
Evan Murdoch hoped things had finally settled down in his life. But now he's caught between two feuding women: his pregnant fiancee, and his recovering alcoholic wife who s fighting their divorce with every dirty, seductive trick she's got. But even that doesn't compare to the dangerous secret Evan s harboring one that could send a Murdoch to jail for a very long time.
Party boy brother Terrence Murdoch is recovering from his devastating car accident. But his relationship with his journalist girlfriend may not survive especially when she reconnects with her family, her church and her ex.
After the attempt on his life, half-brother Dante Turner lays low but not for long. A mysterious young woman may be the answer to his vengeful prayers when it comes to bringing down the Marvelous Murdochs and this time he s going for the jugular.
This is a great series and I suggest you get started reading them if you haven’t already. This is the third book in the series and is my favorite so far.
We catch up with the Murdoch family of Chesterton, Virginia as they grapple with life, love and a lot of drama. Terrence, a former model/playboy is recovering from a terrible accident that seems to have affected how he behaves towards his current love interest.
C.J., the love interest is grappling with the drama of her own. Her ex-lover shows up and tries to get back with her. She is also trying to figure out what her father the Rev. Pete Aston is up to, and what does her ex Shaun knows about it?
We also have Dante the character from hell. He’s addicted to drugs, lost his job, and he has been shot and almost died. The members of the Murdoch family have much to be worried about when it comes to him.
Ms. Ellis storytelling is on point. The writing is tight and fast-paced. I highly suggest this book.
