Tequila: A Story of Success, Love & Violence

By Tim Reuben

Book Overview

An empire built on tequila. A family torn apart by greed and betrayal. A lawyer caught in a deadly web of cartels, corruption, and forbidden love.

From the agave fields of Mexico to the skyscrapers of Manhattan, from bayside mansions in Miami to Los Angeles courthouses, Tequila follows three generations of the Ramirez family as they battle for control of RAM, a multibillion-dollar luxury spirits powerhouse. When Maria Ramirez becomes CEO, her greatest foes aren't her competitors. They're her brothers - the corrupt, sociopathic Miguel and the self-destructive, spiraling Tomaso - whose actions threaten to drag the Ramirez name to ruin.

LA attorney Brian Youngman enters their world, hired for Tomaso's divorce case. What he uncovers are cartel ties, financial crimes, and unimaginable violence. As his growing love for Maria collides with his fight for justice, Brian becomes a reluctant hero in a battle where survival means pain and sacrifice.

With searing legal drama and pulse-pounding twists, Tequila is a genre-bending, plot-driven epic - a gripping blend of suspense, emotional reckoning, and explosive thriller.

Not my thing

The story is comprised of clear and interesting characters involved in very high stakes events involving family drama, violence, murder, divorce, attorney, kidnapping, children, and intense greed. I requested and received a temporary uncorrected digital PDF from Meridian Editions via NetGalley. #Tequila by @timreubenauthor #MeridianEditions Pub Date Oct 14, 2025 ****review #thrillerbooks #courtroomdrama #upcomingnovel #debutauthor
