Publisher Description
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!
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?

Wow
Badass I couldn’t drop it!
Beautiful and uplifting
TAMING MY WHISKEY is the sixth instalment in Melissa Foster’s contemporary, adult THE WHISKEYS: DARK KNIGHTS OF PEACEFUL HARBOR erotic, romance series. This is only daughter, bar owner and bookkeeper Dixie Whiskey, and Silver-Stone Cycles owners/tattoo artist Jace Stone’s story line. TAMING MY WHISKEY can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous instalments is revealed where necessary. The Whiskeys series is a spin off from the author’s Bradens of Peaceful Harbor. There is a slight MC biker theme throughout the series as the Whiskeys are part of the local Dark Knights MC. Several characters cross over between series for cohesion, camaraderie, and familiarity.
Told from dual third person perspectives (Dixie and Jace ) TAMING MY WHISKEY follows the building relationship between bar owner and book keeper Dixie Whiskey, and Silver-Stone Cycles owners/tattoo artist Jace Stone. Dixie is hoping to raise money for the local women’s shelter, and a bachelor auction is the perfect venue but billionaire businessman Jace Stone has refused all of Dixie’s requests to participate. When Dixie offers herself up for auction, Jace outbids everyone else in return for a favour from our story line heroine. What ensues is the building relationship and romance between Jace and Dixie, and the fall-out when Dixie loses her heart to a man who makes no promises for the future.
Jace Stone is about to launch his upscale motorcycle line of clothing, and Dixie is the perfect person to help promote and model his fashion apparel. Jace is the perpetual bachelor, nearing forty years old, and refuses to be tied down to any one woman but something about Dixie tugs at his heart. Dixie Whiskey fell in love with Jace Stone years before but no attempts at seduction have worked their way into Jace’s heart. Hoping for her own happily ever after, Dixie struggles with her attraction to a man who doesn’t do relationships, and refuses to fall in love.
The relationship between Dixie and Jace is one of immediate attraction but Jace is too busy with his business to settle down. Having had his heart broken years before, Jace refuses to lose his heart to anyone else including the woman that he currently is unable to get out of his head. The $ex scenes are intimate, erotic and intense, without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text. The push and pull of attraction is continuously tested each time Jace Stone pulls away from the woman with whom he is falling in love.
There is a large and colorful cast of secondary and supporting characters including all of Dixie’s brothers, their significant others, and their growing families: Dr. Wayne ‘Bones’ Whiskey and his wife Sarah, and her children Bradley and Lila (Wicked Whiskey Love #4); Special Forces Veteran Bullet Whiskey and Finlay Wilson (Driving Whiskey Wild #3), biker/mechanic Bear Whiskey and his wife Crystal (Truly, Madly, Whiskey 2); as well as their parents Biggs and Wren (Red) Whiskey; Truman & Gemma (Tru Blue #1) ; Truman’s brothers and sister, Quincy, Lincoln and Kennedy; and several members of the Dark Knights MC including Dr. Jon Butterscotch, Jed and Josie (Mad About Moon #5), and Desmond Diesel Black: Dixie’s friends Penny, Tracey, and Izzy Ryder as well as Jace’s business partner Maddox Silver, and Jace’s siblings Jared, Jayla (Rush), Mia aka Jocelyn, and Jennifer.
Melissa Foster’s world building is phenomenal. Revealing a little bit of information about each of her previous characters to keep the reader informed about the who, how and why, and how each characters adds color and continuity to the growing story line..
TAMING MY WHISKEY is an emotional story of family, friendship and unrequited love. I may have shed a tear or three every time Dixie’s heart broke a little bit more. The premise is spicy and inspiring: the characters are sassy, sexy and stubborn; the romance is sensitive, realistic and passionate. TAMING MY WHISKEY is a beautiful and uplifting story of love and courage; understanding and inspiration.
Love The Whiskeys
The life of the Dark Knights princess is no easy task when you want to live life on your own terms. Dixie is set to prove to everyone that she isn’t a little girl anymore and is tired of living under the watchful eye of her brothers and the rest of the Dark Knights. There is only one man that she wants and has wanted for many years. Jace is married to his work and is set to have Dixie as the face of Silver-Stone Motorcycles and will stop at nothing to get her to agree. Even standing up to her burliest of brothers, Bullet. When Dixie agrees to be the face of Silver-Stone Motorcycles, she hopes this is her chance to get Jace to see her. Jace has liked Dixie for just as long as Dixie has liked him but can his feelings for her outweigh his work commitments and fear of being hurt again.
OMG! Melissa Foster has done it again and completely renewed my love for The Whiskeys. Dixie and Jace’s novel is steamy and lets you see into the life of Dixie Whiskey and who she really is. It was also great to catch up with the rest of the Whiskey clan. I laughed and even cried both sad and happy tears while reading this novel. Taming My Whiskey is the fifth book in The Whiskeys: Dark Knights at Peaceful Harbor series by Melissa Foster. Taming My Whiskey is the sixth novel in The Whiskeys: Dark Knights at Peaceful Harbor series which can be read as a standalone or read in series order and is written in third person point of view.
I gave Taming My Whiskey 5 maple stars and recommend this and all the Whiskey novels.
