The Trouble with Whiskey by Melissa Foster

5.0

The Trouble with Whiskey is the first book in The Whiskeys: Dark Knights at Redemption Ranch. This branch of the Whiskey family was introduced in the previous Whiskey family series, and I was so excited to finally see them get their own stories. I have become such a fan of Ms. Foster’s and every one of her books become an auto-read for me. They just keep getting better and better! This heartbreaking book is Devlin “Dare” Whiskey and Billie Mancini’s story.
“I’ve been in love with you since we were six years old, when you kissed me in the barn and called me a dummy. It’s always been you, Billie”

Dare, Billie, and Eddie grew up pushing the limits with their stunts. After Eddie died, Billie stopped doing all the things she loved. Her grief and guilt had her pulling away from her family and friends. Dare had loved Billie forever and is ready for her to start living life again. Can he convince her to let go of her guilt and risk falling in love?

This was a beautiful and heartbreaking story that will take you on an emotional rollercoaster ride. The three friends had so much history between them therefore Dare and Billie’s grief was so consuming. My heart ached for them as they grieved and struggled to find peace and a way forward without Eddie. Be prepared for all the emotions and a beautiful journey of friendship and family.
