I’ve read all the books in this series and loved every one of them. I didn’t realise this was the last book in the Drew family series until I read some reviews before starting the book.
This book is a brilliant gangland crime thriller with Lily, Cillian and Scarlett trying to keeps things going despite being under threat from rival firms.
There’s an opportunity that presents itself to Lily but it comes with some big risks.
The Drews work together with The Logans to take down The Romanos but things don’t go to plan.
There were some nail biting moments in this book and a few emotional moments too, and I loved every minute.
This is a great send off for Lily and her family and I look forward to a new series from Emma Tallon.
Thanks to Bookouture and NetGalley for the opportunity to read this book.

The Drew Family Crime Thriller, and BOOM! it's another dynamic read from this author.
She faces a threat like no other....
and this time it's personal.
Lily Drew is over the moon for her son Cillian and Billie who are getting married, missing Connor his twin who has left the firm to work now with his father Ray, can Lil keep up this fight and not let Ray beat his way back into her affection?
This family all suffer blows in their wildest nightmares, lost loved ones, battles, and pieces of themselves that they would never get back.
And the Drew's once again are pulled together as a family all around Lily with more hard days ahead they are fighters.
This book seven in the series, is once again the authors best, I love reading her work, as she grips and pulls you into the story, with tears in your eyes moments as well as smiles.
A fantastic read that I so enjoyed tremendously right through.
A big thumbs up from me!!!

Her feud is the seventh and last episode of the Drew series and I will be sad for it to go. But I have read others from the author, and I am sure they will be as good as the author never disappoints.
Lily Drew is still getting over Ruby’s death, and she is mad at Ray as he has taken one of her boys Connor, to work with the rival firm. Cillian, Lily, and Scarlett are struggling for the loss of Connor at the firm. But are too stubborn to contact him and that’s not all another turn war is about to kick off.
The only good news in all of this. Cillian and Billie are getting married.
This is another fast paced, action packed and violent thriller. It has a great variety of characters, and the storyline came to a great conclusion. I loved not only this episode, but I thought in a whole series was unputdownable. 5 stars from me.

“A wounded bear is a dangerous creature." No other words could more aptly describe Lily Drew and what she is facing..

A turf war is about to be underway. Which side will Lily choose? Her twin sons Killian and Connor are now on different sides. Killian stayed with his mother's crime firm, along with his cousin Scarlett. Connor went to a rival firm, run by Ray. Ray is not only the twins' father, something only recently revealed, but he and Lily have been in love for three decades, despite being on opposite sides, with the conflicts between them never letting up.

So Killian and Lily are a mess. They both miss Connor desperately, but business and pride seem to have gotten in the way. Whether or not they will ever reunite with Connor remains to be seen. Meanwhile, as Killian is about to marry, yet another turf war is at hand. This war could end a lot of lives, but not before sweeping major disaster and tragedy along the way.

This final installment of the Drew Crime Family series starts at break-net speed and never once loses its grip. This thrilling read shows more than one Drew is on borrowed time, and the story maintains a fever pitch throughout. This story comes to an end with a tense and satisfying conclusion, both to the book and to the series.

Emma Tallon has not only written this stellar seven-book series, but her previous series, the Anna Davis and Freddie Tyler series is just as compelling, just as addictive and just as riveting as this one. I implore the reader of this book to read to the VERY end, because we have met some new characters in this book, Her Feud ...enough said.

Many thanks to Bookouture and to NetGalley for this ARC for review. This is my honest opinion.

^part of the story deals with adult sexual abuse and rape and the consequences of this behaviour to the victims physically and mentally^

Any reader who is on Book 7 in a series is going to say they love it….I LOVED IT and got to say probably never felt so sad a series has come to an end as this one, the Drew’s have become a ‘set of friends’ I am happy to meet up with and enjoy their ( often ) hazardous lives that are crossed with warm family ties and events….it has been an amazing series and am genuinely sad to see them go from my reading life ( although excited the author has a new series on the way )

For me this last book does not fizzle out, nor go with a bang, it defiantly blasts from every page….one of the subjects covered is heinous and is dealt with honestly and not brushed under the carpet but respectfully and with the best outcome, the book pulls no punches on retribution…be warned…
Its fantastically written and anyone who has loved The Drews will relish every word, if you haven’t met them I would invest in the previous 6 and get to know them, they are worth meeting!

It’s not easy for an author to write a family that readers want to follow through 7 books but the author made them accessible, great to read about and whilst at times scary also loveable, all of them in their own special ways

Excellent Reading, so long Drews 😎

I really love this series, featuring the Drew family. This is the final read in the series, it's sharp, fast paced and filled with excellent characters. The plotting is revenge, gang rivalry and there is plenty of violence so not for the faint hearted! It's beautifully wound up in a very satisfying ending and a series I highly recommend. i wonder what the author has in store for readers next? thanks to Net Galley for my ARC.

A happy day because I got to read another book in this amazing series, but a very sad one at the same time, because it is the last installment and I am going to miss them enormously.

Was this a strong story or was this a strong story? I can assure you that every book this author writes is worth reading and I can add that I cried a bucket load of tears whilst devouring this one.

I did not want to part with Freddie, the hero of the series before this one and I am the author ever so grateful for the guest role he gets every once in a while. I hope the Drews will appear in the next series too.

I am such a big fan of this author's gangland books. They really are among the best ones I have ever read. She knows how to nail her readers to their chairs and treat them to stories they will never forget.

So mixed emotions here. Sadness but also looking forward to meeting new characters in what I already know will be another mind blowing set of books. 5 stars

Thank you

I absolutely love this series and even though it’s book 7 they are all as brilliant as the previous books. As usual a fast paced storyline that grips from the first page and doesn’t let go. All the Drew characters I loved and it’s really sad that this is the final instalment of this series, they feel like family. I can’t wait to read what Emma writes next, she is such a talented author. I strongly recommend this book/series and author.

This is the 7th and concluding book of the Drew family crime series. This has been a very addictive series and all the books have been very good. This book closes the series strongly!

The story starts with a house being set on fire and human remains discovered there. The body had been left there by the Logans, who had to flee after being blackmailed by the Romanos. The Drew family later took over that territory. In the Drew family, Cillian and his girlfriend Billy plan to marry. Connor, his twin, has left the family and works for Ray in another gang. There were revelations regarding Cillian & Connor in the previous book. Lily, her niece Scarlet, Cillian, Isla struggle to manage in the absence of Connor. The Romanos are also plotting against them, and have already started cheating them. The Logans want to team up with the Drews to take on the Romanos. Lily does not have too many choices but wants to be clever & subtle about it, rather than provoking an all-out gang war.

The story is very fast paced and holds the tension till the end. The plot with gang rivalry plays out well. As the last book of the series, the way it ends is not surprising, but neat. All the Drew family characters are extremely well developed over the course of the series - strong and loveable. I would have liked the last sections to be better, the Lily – Ray relationship to be less dramatic, and more prominence for Scarlet in this last book. But overall, a very satisfying conclusion to the series.

The author suggests that some characters introduced in this book will find their way to a new series she is working on. I will look forward to it!

This is a series I strongly recommend.

My rating: 4.75 / 5.

Family is everything to Lily Drew, and she's always battled to keep hers together. But following the death of her only daughter, Ruby, and losing her son Connor to a rival firm, Lily feels like everything she's fought so hard to protect is about to fall, and when turf wars between two rival gangs starts on the Drews doorstep, Lily must pick a side.

Connor left the family business so that he could keep his cousin Scarlet's secret hidden. Scarlet is trying to balance her guilt, work, and love life. Some old faces return. Violence and revenge are par for the course in this fantastic series.

I'm a huge fan of Emma Tallon, and I've loved this series about the Drews. The pace is fast, it's descriptively written, and some parts are not for the faint-hearted. It had me on the edge of my seat. The characters are well-developed and likeable. Lily was my favourite character throughout the series. She is fearless.

I would like to thank #NetGalley #Bookouture and the author #EmmaTallon for my ARC of #HerFued in exchange for an honest review.

WOW!!

I have been looking forward to reading this so much, but also completely heartbroken that it's the last in the Drew series.

You can read this as a stand alone but I highly recommend you start at the beginning. That way you get to know the characters and they grow. You feel like you should have a seat at their Sunday lunch table!!

This book drags you along for the ride. Just when you think everything is finally going so right, you get smacked right across the face and realise that you were horribly wrong.

What a ride!!

I can't wait for what Emma releases next.

If you love Martina Cole, Kimberley Chambers, Kerry Kaya or Kerry Barnes, you will love the Drew's.

Emma's first family series featuring the Tyler's is an excellent starting point.

This final installment, sadly, was the strongest, best one yet! The author did a fantastic job wrapping up the series. Fast-paced, edge of your seat moments. Great character development and character arcs right up until the very last word. One of the best endings to a series I've ever read.

Thank you #netgalley and #bookouture for the eARC.

This book kept me up! The ending had my heart in my throat muttering no no no. Well written. And of course, I love these people.
Connor has joined Ray's group - trying hard to cope with the lack of trust, nepotism as though he hasn't worked for years showing his ability. Scarlet balances her guilt, trying to move on and her relationship with Billy. Which I want to fizzle so bad and ship Scarlet with Chain. Lily - the embodiment of motherhood guilt.
With the return of a friendly crime gang forced to exile years ago - Lily and the Drews must choose sides.
Meanwhile they undercover a crime boss' son and his depravity. Well done!
With the epilogue - I hope there's a next one!

An exceptionally good read. The finale to the Drew family saga so a bitter sweet read. However I'm sure the next series will be just as addictive and can't wait to meet the new family.

This is book #7 in the Drew Family series, and sadly the last one with the Drew family. Whilst it is part of a series, it can be read as a standalone, although I would recommend reading the books in series order for better understanding of the characters stories. We are back for the last instalment with the Drew family. The matriarch, Lily Drew is trying to keep her family together following one of her son's going to work for a rival firm. I love Lily's character and always admired her family's strength and loyalty. I felt quite sorry for her in this book though as it seems everything she has worked towards might be on the verge of being lost.

This was such an exciting read. Of course, it is a gangland thriller, so it goes without saying that there is a lot of violence in the story. The storyline takes you on a rollercoaster through the shady London underworld and keeps you wondering if all the Drew family will all come out the other side. The storyline twists and turns throughout, keeping not only the readers on their toes, but the characters as well. I love Lily and Ray's on/off relationship throughout the series, and was keeping fingers crossed that old scores and family feuds were settled before the end of the book.

I loved the pace of this book, thrilling, high action and full of tension and suspense. Whilst sad that the Drew's story has come to an end, it was the perfect ending and hopefully we'll see some of them popping up in future books like the Tyler's did! Would definitely recommend!
