A Taste of Whiskey by Melissa Foster
The Whiskeys: Dark Knights of Redemption Ranch

Colorado ranch with heart and hope run by the Western Whiskeys sees daughter Sasha decide it is now or never for her to act upon an interest that has been on slow burn since she was inhigh school. With a no fraternization between employees rule where they work, on the family ranch, being with him is forbidden so how WILL they get together?

The intertwining storylines of various series are fun to read in order or whenever you come across a book by this author. And this time, as always, the lead characters are perfect for one another and do get their happily ever after even though they have waited years to achieve it. The chemistry between Sasha and Ezra is smoking hot. The love they both feel for one another and for Ezra’s young son leaps off the page. The friendship is genuine and has built up over time. Seeing others who I have read about in previous books was nice as was guessing which person will have their story told next. The Dark Knights are closer than family and there for one another as was shown once again when Ezra’s son was in trouble.

Gus was a charming little boy who nearly stole the show. He did not deserve the flakey mother he ended up with but fell in clover by landing on the ranch with his father. I appreciated the way Sasha’s parents allowed their children freedom while protecting them at the same time. The story is all about trust, family, friendship, communication, and deep abiding love. Great story by a wonderful author. Thoroughly enjoyed it!

Thank you to the author for the ARC – This is my honest review.

I absolutely loved this story about Tegan who is a free spirit and loves her life on her own terms and Jett Masters who is a die-hard workaholic and stays far away from family or any type of romantic connection. The two of them meet in a few serendipitous ways but Tegan thinks Jett is one of those cocky playboys and wants nothing to do with him even if their attraction is off the charts. I loved the banter they had together, the ease of their relationship, and the way they made each other better people especially when Tegan shows Jett it’s ok to let go sometimes and relax. Super cute read with lots of steam and sweet moments.… (altro)

Two people who have been hurt deeply trying to find their way life and find the redemption they both deserve. Diesel is this strong silent broody biker; he doesn’t like to stay in one place too long only finding solace on the road. After two years of helping The Whiskey’s in their bar he is starting to crave the open road again, yet the one thing holding him back is the cute waitress he feels protective over, Tracey. Tracey endured a hurt like no other and after fleeing, getting help, she is finally getting back on her two feet. She is also finding her confidence again so when the growly bartender keeps scaring her tips away, she can’t help but go off on him. She doesn’t see his protectiveness as more than him thinking she is weak, but really Diesel wants her. The back and forth of wanting not wanting each other plays a major role in these two finally finding what they want in life and Tracey isn’t sure if its Diesel and his silent grunting or someone else. Tracey is such a strong character that overcame so much, and I loved that she was the only one that could get Diesel to open. Diesel loved hard but will let go of past hurts to find a future with Tracey? Can Tracey see through Diesel’s walls and overcome her own so they can discover more in their attraction? I loved this book, seeing all the Whiskeys, and being introduced to the Colorado crew. Such a great series that you fall in love with characters, the family they create in friends, and the closeness they have with each other.… (altro)
