Driving Whiskey Wild

Wicked Whiskey Love by Melissa Foster is the fourth book in the Whiskey series and it is unnecessary to read the books in order as each book can stand on its own. Having read the previous books I awaited Wayne Whiskey aka Bones with eager anticipation.I must confess that I initially I had a hard time getting into the story due to what I considered being a slow start. Eventually at around thirty percent into the story things changed, and I found myself invested in Bones and Sarah’s story. This story will create havoc with your emotions.This series unlike the other books written by Ms. Foster focuses on issues such as abuse, homelessness and drug addiction. This installment was no different.Sarah appeared in the previous book where she was involved in a serious accident and the Whiskey family came to her rescue. During this time, Bones became enamoured of her. He knew she was the one for him and he was not about to let her get away. He did not care if she had enough baggage to fill an aeroplane. He willingly lay claim to her baggage. His reaction to Sarah amazed his family as Bones is not the type of person to make rash decisions. He researches things before taking action. From the moment, he willing accepted Sara despite her being a single mom of two and another baby on the way I knew he was special. How many men would do that?I admired Sarah’s resilience. Despite the tragedies she suffered from childhood to adulthood she remained strong for those who mattered most, her children. I understood why she would have trust issues. The people who she should have been able to trust betrayed in the worst ways possible.I enjoyed watching Sarah overcome the tragedies of her past and embrace the love that Bones and his family offered her. She learnt that not everyone who did nice things for her had a hidden agenda. I loved seeing his protective side come to light especially with her children.The display of family bonds warmed my heart. It made me yearned for such an experience. Not once did the Whiskeys judge Sarah, they accepted her for whom she was and even more so when they learnt of her past.Conclusion/RecommendationWicked Whiskey Love is a story that will warm your heart. It is a story about second chances, healing, love and family. This story 0000is one I would recommend to fans of contemporary romance. I cannot wait to read the next book which features Sarah’s sister.

Driving Whiskey Wild is the third book in The Whiskey series, and like the prior books, it can be read as a stand-alone. However, after reading this installment you will be hard-pressed to read the other books in the series. The story is a perfect depiction of the adage opposites attract.The protagonists are the complete opposite of each other. Bullet Whiskey is a hard-core biker, while Finlay Wilson is the sweet and pure heroine. Se fascinated Bullet from the moment he laid eyes on her. Sparks ignited in a flash. However, Finlay was not impressed with the manner in which he approached her. However, the more time she spent in his presence she would learn that one should never judge a book by its cover. In this case, one should never judge a man by the number of tattoos he sports.Now Bullet is not your typical biker, neither is his family. Bullet is a protector by nature, which we see demonstrated in how he treated his family and members of the community. The fact that he loved animals and children showed he was a softie at heart. Beneath all of this though, lay a tortured soul. He struggles with PTSD as a result of his time spent in the military. Guilt due to events, which took place during his service to his country weighed heavily on his heart. As a result he allowed no one to get close to him until the day he met Finlay. She breached the walls he built around his heart.Finlay is a determined and courageous heroine, who kept Bullet on his toes. In addition to this, she was sweet but feisty. It is no wonder Bullet was enamoured of her. I admired her strength and her compassion. She is not afraid to speak her mind.Ms. Foster proved once again why she is my go to author for sweet, spicy and drama free romance. I enjoyed watching the interaction between the characters. They both had past issues that would prove a hindrance to their growing relationship. However, they handled these issues like adults, which proved beneficial in the end.The story moved at a pace, which I thought, was fitting, not too fast, not too slow. I enjoyed the family dynamics and the banter between all the characters. There was a twist, I never saw coming. I thought it was well done and fitting.Conclusion/RecommendationThis was a well-written story about love and healing. If you are looking for a romantic story free of drama and angst. If you love romance free of drama and angst, then you will enjoy Driving Whiskey Wild. I cannot wait to get my hand on the next book in the series.
