This book is your typical girl-falls-in-love-with-her-best-friend's-older-brother-kinda-story. Even though Johnston's idea for this story is simple, Whiskey & Honey is a heart-warming, sweet, and romantic read without any serious drama or traumatic pasts. In other words, it is a completely feel-good read.
Piper and Bentley aka Ben were great characters. It was exciting to get to know them and see where the journey would take them. What I probably liked most about them and the secondary characters was the fact that they were already in their mid- to late-twenties. As I'm heading closer to the big 3 0, older characters have been of more interest for me lately (which doesn't mean I will stop reading YA or NA books).
The chemistry of the main characters was off the charts. Some of their interactions and meetings were so swoon-worthy, I felt it tingling in my tummy. They were just right for each other; they made sense.
"I don't want us to miss out on something that is so perfect because we are worried about what may happen or of hurting someone's feelings. At some point we have to put ourselves first."
Even though Bentley was the perfect boyfriend (and book-boyfriend obviously), he was sometimes too alpha-male for my taste. I just don't find it very appealing when guys get too caveman on their soon-to-be-girlfriends/girlfriends.
With Whiskey & Honey, Andrea Johnston introduced me to a great group of friends and a new world enirely. I hope I find some time to read the rest of the series soon because I can't wait to read about the other characters and their adventures.
