Callahan "Cowboy" Whiskey is a natural-born protector, a Dark Knights biker, and a hell of a rancher. What happens when he falls for a woman who has no idea who she really is?
When Sullivan Tate escaped from a cult, leaving behind the only life she'd ever known, she thought she'd already endured the most difficult things she'd ever have to deal with. She knew she needed to figure out who she was, but she hadn't expected to fall for overprotective and sexy-as-hell Callahan "Cowboy" Whiskey along the way. How can she give her heart to a man who has always known exactly who he is, when she's only just begun figuring that out about herself?
The Whiskeys are perfect beach reads with depth of story, strong family ties, and a wealth of emotions. Small town love stories with happily ever afters guaranteed.

From
the moment I read the blurb for this book I had to get my grabby hands on it.
Cults intrigue the crap out of me, and I love the idea of a character saving
themselves from the situation. Especially when it's written by an amazing
author like Melissa Foster. She has such a strong writing style, and her
characters always have such depth.
I
read the prequel to this and fell madly in love with Sully. She was such a
strong willed and fiercely independent person, and I felt her bravery. And then
watching her grow and become more independent and self-reliant only made me
admire her more.
The
meeting between Sully and Cowboy was such a sweet beginning to a really
beautiful love story. Watching them negotiate a relationship with everything
Sully was going through had me feeling like I was living it with them. There
was so much that I enjoyed about this book, and I love how they fit into
previous books in the collection without having to read them.
There
are so many awesome secondary characters I can't wait to see get their stories
told. And so many books that intersect with this one I can’t wait to go
grab.
Oh
my god I hate it here. I have had this book on my TBR forever, but it sounded
super emotional and I kept putting it off. Because although I love books full
of emotion, I never want to read them. Then I find myself in the middle of them
loving every word. But when I read the blurb for the next book and had to have it,
I knew I had to read this one first so I grabbed the audio while I picked up
the toy room.
Billie
and Dare had a super emotional story, and I couldn't put it down. I also didn't
want to be in the middle of all those feels. Because Melissa wrote this book in
such a way that I felt like I was living it along with them. And I admit I
wished I hadn't started this book while I lay in bed unable to put it down with
tears running down my face.
As
with all these books we get a massive amount of secondary characters who are
awesome and will be woven through the rest of the series. It's a perfect
stand-alone but there were mentions of former book characters to tickle my
memory. And a solid introduction to the upcoming books characters that has my
dying to dive into it.
It's no secret I love Melissa Foster's writing and a few of her books are in my top 10 of all time. But I only read a few select series and the Whiskey's are my immediate one click crack. First because there are so damn many of them and new series just keep being added with other siblings and cousins and they are all amazing.
But mainly because they feel like coming home to all your favourite people. The Dark Knight's have the whole love, protection, family thing perfected and whenever I visit one of their books I always want to stay. So, I've read most of the books in order, but I have also read a few of them as standalones and they work just as beautifully.
This book is Diesel and Tracey's story and we have had a bit of a tease with their relationship watching them dance around each other. Diesel was a character I instantly wanted to know more of. He was this hulking, growling, protective beast who was so intent on keeping his distance from Tracey, yet he couldn't keep his eyes off her. And everyone knew it was only a matter of time before he fell at her feet.
Tracey was one of the women from the shelter who came to us a little bruised and battered. But she soon got her feet under herself and watching her flourish was awesome. The two of them were so much fun to watch and we got loads of emotions to go with it. Plus we got a lot of cookie crumbs for the Redemption Ranch series which is coming soon. And I can't wait.

From the moment I picked up Tru's book I have loved the Whiskey's. And I have enjoyed getting to know all of their family, both biological and adopted. All these books have been the perfect mix of love, romance, family and emotion. With enough chemistry to heat things up.
Both Penny and Scott have been involved in earlier couples’ stories but I really never pictured them together until they were. Scott's story was so emotional, and he was so stoic and felt so Closed off from everyone but his sisters I didn't really think of him as one of our heroes.
Penny was so sweet and giving I really could not picture her with Scott. But to see them together in Quincy's story I thought it was heading for heartbreak due to their different experiences. So, seeing them together was beautiful and I totally got over my reservation.
As with all the books, this could be read as a standalone and as a novella i was really impressed with how well all the characters were introduced without it taking up too much of the story. And not only did we get Scott and Penny, but we got more of our other couples further down the line. Plus, a little teaser of Tracey and Diesel. Perfect afternoon read.
THE GRITTY TRUTH is the perfect love story for those who enjoy fiercely loyal and insanely sexy alpha heroes, smart, sassy heroines, strong family bonds, bikers, babies, and more!
Recovering drug addict Quincy Gritt has fought his demons. He’s confessed to his crimes and conquered his addictions. He’s finally ready to go after sweet, sexy Roni, the gorgeous brunette who won a date with him in a charity auction five months ago and has been putting him off, and driving him wild, ever since.
Dancer Veronica “Roni” Wescott worked hard to escape the seedy area where she was raised and followed her dreams to Julliard, only to have them shattered in the blink of an eye. She fought hard and regained her footing, but then the rug was pulled out from under her again when the grandmother who raised her passed away, leaving Roni feeling adrift in a world she knows very little about outside of dance. And then there’s Charlie Hunnam–lookalike Quincy Gritt—the man whose late-night texts pulled her through her grief and have been setting her heart aflutter for months.
Quincy pulls out all the stops, determined to prove that their friendship is only the beginning of what’s destined to be so much more. Romantic nights lead to smoldering passion and a deep connection too strong to be denied. But when Quincy’s past comes back to haunt him, can he and Roni accept their new gritty truth, or will Quincy spiral back into the darkness and lose the future he fought so hard to have?

I fell madly in love with Tru Blue. Honestly, Truman's story is one of my top 10 books and from there I was hooked on the Whiskey series. But from that first book, I have wanted Quincy's story.
I felt like I knew most of Quincy's story, but I knew it from Truman's point of view and I KNEW it would be an emotional ride. Everything he came through to get to this point made him someone so genuine and human. He had walked through fire and come out of it surrounded by the love and support of the Whiskey clan. I really loved him and his commitment to being the best version of himself he could be.
I don't really remember Roni but she was a great compliment for Quincy. She had walked through her own fire and come out solid. As beautiful inside as she was out. I loved how perfectly she fit in with everyone and how supportive she was of everything Quincy was going through.
This series is awesome. I love that they can be read in order, to give you this great family connection or as a complete standalone. And since I've read them as a series getting a little more of each couple with every book has been as great as watching the guys and girls on the outskirts take their turn at centre stage.
I'm not going to lie this was a lot less devastating than I was expecting. Which may have something to do with the fact I was expecting complete devastation. But I felt more uplifted by the fact they were both so solid. In their recoveries and in each other. And now I am dying to get Running on Diesel. He has been teasing me from the background and I can't wait to get to know him better.
Buckle up for a wild ride as Dixie Whiskey finds forever love in TAMING MY WHISKEY, a funny, sexy, and emotionally riveting standalone romance by New York Times bestselling author Melissa Foster. The perfect love story for those who enjoy fiercely loyal and insanely sexy alpha heroes, smart, sassy heroines, strong family bonds, bikers, babies, and more!
In TAMING MY WHISKEY…
Being the princess of the Dark Knights motorcycle club doesn’t come with a white knight or a fairy-tale castle, and that’s okay, because Dixie Whiskey has never needed a man to slay her dragons or make her whole. Even so, after watching each of her brothers fall in love, she’d sure like a shot at her own happily ever after. But with the Dark Knights watching over her and the only man she’s ever wanted out of reach, she’s not holding her breath.
As the launch of Silver-Stone Cycles’ biggest line approaches, Jace Stone is left needing a favor from the one woman who holds the power to take him to his knees. He knows when it comes to sinfully gorgeous and sharp-tongued Dixie Whiskey, he must stay on his toes and keep his walls firmly in place. But Jace needs her for his business—and Jace Stone always gets what he wants.
When the tall, gruff, and darkly handsome biker presents an opportunity that any other woman might see as the chance of a lifetime, Dixie turns him down flat. But Jace is determined, and he pulls out all the stops—sending Dixie’s overprotective brothers up in arms. Rebellious Dixie takes a stand—going after the freedom, and the man, she’s always wanted. One scorching kiss leads to an undeniable connection, but Jace isn’t looking to be tied down, and Dixie refuses to play second fiddle. Can two untamable hearts find forever love in each other’s arms?

“Yeah, thanks,” one of the guys said.
She walked away with the human inferno that was Jace Stone on her heels.
“Dixie, how can you be upset with me? I gave you a twenty-thousand-dollar donation for the auction.”
She set the bottles on the bar and said, “Which I truly appreciate, but giving of yourself and giving money are two different things. One is easy and mindless. The other tells me who you are. It was a real eye-opener.” She crossed her arms and said, “What did you need help with anyway?”
Diesel grabbed the empty bottles, and Dixie said, “Another round, please.”
“I’m rolling out the Legacy line in the fall.”
“So I’ve heard. Bear’s pretty excited.” In addition to working at Whiskey Automotive, Bear worked part-time designing and building custom motorcycles for Jace’s company. He hadn’t worked on the Legacy line, but he raved about it.
“We all are. This line is my baby. I’ve put blood, sweat, and tears into it. It’s the first motorcycle line that will have bikes designed specifically for women. Nobody’s doing that, Dix. This is a huge deal.”
Bear had told her all about Jace’s innovative, sleek designs for women. It was a genius idea, and it didn’t surprise her that Jace had come up with it. But she couldn’t help thinking about Jace researching the contours of women’s bodies…
Diesel put three bottles on the bar, eyes locked on Jace. “Stone,” he said evenly.
“Diesel.” Jace lifted his chin in the manly greeting Dixie was accustomed to.
“Thanks, Diesel,” Dixie said, and as she headed to the table with Jace beside her, she said, “Congratulations on the line, but what does it have to do with needing me?” She set the bottles down, flashed a smile at the customers, and said, “Can I get you boys anything else?”
One of them looked her up and down lasciviously. Jace stepped closer, and the guy shifted his eyes away and said, “No. We’re good.”
Dixie spun on her heels, grabbed Jace’s arm, and dragged him to the side of the room. She felt Diesel’s antennae springing and glanced at the bar, mouthing, I’m fine! Turning her attention to Jace, she spoke in a harsh whisper. “You just fucked up my tip, and I don’t appreciate it. So whatever you have to say, say it and be gone, okay? I’ve got work to do.”
“That guy was looking at you like you were a piece of meat.”
“No shit. They all do.” Except now that she was thinking about it, Jace never had. Not once. In fact, in all the years she’d known him, this was the longest he’d ever looked at her. He didn’t live in Peaceful Harbor, but he traveled there often to see his brother Jared, who had signed up for the auction. Jared owned a restaurant in Pleasant Hill and lived there for several months out of the year. “I have a lot to do, Jace, so if you have more to say, please get on with it.”
“I’m launching a women’s clothing line called Leather and Lace when we launch the Legacy line. We’re making a calendar to promote the clothing and the new bikes. The photo shoot is next week, and the woman I hired to model got hurt and can’t make it. I want you to replace her.”
She blinked several times, unable to believe what she was hearing. An incredulous laugh tumbled out. “Do you even fucking know me, Stone? I am not a pinup girl!” She took a step away and he grabbed her arm, tugging her back to him and keeping her so close, she could see flecks of gold in his sexy hazel eyes.
“This is important to me, Dixie. I don’t want someone who fakes being a biker. I want an authentic woman. I want you.”
“Do I need to point out that I was your second choice, or maybe your tenth. I don’t know or care, because any way you cut it, the answer is no. I told you, I’m not a pinup girl.” She held his steady gaze with an ice-cold one of her own and said, “For the record, Whiskeys don’t play second fiddle to anyone. Sorry, Stone, but you’re out of luck.”
“Come on, Dixie,” he pleaded gruffly. “I’ll let you auction me off.”
“Too little, too late. The ballot is full.” The lie felt victorious. She yanked her arm free and said, “I have customers to help. Good luck with the line. I’m sure, like everything you touch, it will turn to gold.”
“With you on board, it’ll be legendary.”
“No.”
He leaned closer and lowered his voice to say, “This isn’t over, kitten.”
“What the hell did you just say?” Anger simmered inside her. She poked him in his rock-hard chest and said, “I’m nobody’s kitten, and you’re this close to earning a knee to your groin.”
“You definitely know how to use those claws, and you’re so sweet I bet you purr,” he said arrogantly. “You know you want to do it, Dix.”
His eyes drilled into her, causing heat to sear through her veins and her traitorous nipples to pebble into aching peaks. Damn, he played dirty.
“Careful, Stone. This kitten bites.”
