Years ago Ezra was a belligerent teen who once tried to win her over; now he is a respected single-father therapist who keeps a careful, professional distance, and the man against whom Sasha secretly measures every other. She is done comparing and ready for the real thing, but going after Ezra means risking the careers, reputations, and hard-won stability they have both built, especially since dating co-workers is off-limits at the ranch. Ezra guards his heart and his daughter fiercely, wary of jeopardizing a job and a life that finally feel steady. As long-buried attraction refuses to stay hidden, the two must weigh a lifetime of restraint against the pull they can no longer deny. Warm, emotional, and steamy, this is a slow-simmering workplace romance about second impressions, family loyalty, and the courage it takes to reach for the person who has been in front of you all along.",2024,"en","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kxpr0znv7z6xyhaad0jf64yw.jpg?v=3fc4f5015d","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Fworks-3d\u002F01\u002F01kxpr0znfbgejamwnjjsb1qxe.png?v=c23001c6c1","LEC~;q~q9vR5xvW?bHt7004nRP%M","5.00",1,330,375,0,"complete",false,true,[18,18,18,18,18,18,18,18,18,15],[24],{"id":25,"slug":26,"name":27,"role":28,"bio":29},"01kx262b7fyxe3z8beha1bc09z","melissa-foster-ffxg","Melissa Foster","author","A New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and USA Today bestselling author, Melissa Foster has written more than 100 novels and sold millions of copies worldwide.

This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.\n\nFirst there was Dare, then Cowboy and now we have Ezra. Melissa Foster sure knows how to create swoon worthy heroes, and she did a magnificent job with Ezra in A Taste of Whiskey. In this the third book of The Whiskeys: Dark Knights At Redemption Ranch, Foster treats her fans to the following tropes\n1. Single Dad\n2. Friends to Lovers\n3. Found Family\n4. Forbidden Romance\n\nA Taste of Whiskey was an awesome read. Ezra and Sasha were an adorable couple. Because of a no fraternization among employees rule, they both kept their feelings for each other under wraps. They spent time together as friends, but the more they were in each other's company, the harder it became for them to deny what they felt. Eventually tension increased and like an active volcano it exploded, leading to several secret liaisons.\n\nEzra may not have been born a Whiskey, but he fits perfectly into the family. Ezra and Sasha's interactions will have you smiling throughout the story. From the moment they met as teenagers, one could feel the chemistry building between them. All it took we was one kiss and things were never the same. However, the road leading to their happily ever after was paved with pain, disillusionment, disappointments, imperfect timing, fear, and insecurities. Despite the odds stacked against them, Ezra and Sasha fought for their happiness. Their willingness to sacrifice all they accomplished working on the ranch for their relationship reflected the authenticity of their feelings for each other. A that will have readers rooting for them.\n\nWhile I loved Ezra and Sasha, the star of this instalment was Gus, Ezra's son. An adorable little boy and a charmer in the making. His interactions with Sasha and the secondary characters will have readers smiling throughout the story.\n\nIt was fun returning to the Redemption Ranch, where family and friendship thrive. Once again, Foster gave her readers a story brimming with laughter, heat, and heart.This review was originally posted on Totally Addicted to Reading",5,"none","rv-01kxpr111vwy5f6xkr2tg85n0w",[],"2026-07-17T00:36:06.000000Z",{"first":7,"last":7,"prev":7,"next":7},{"path":123,"per_page":124,"next_cursor":7,"prev_cursor":7,"has_more":20},"https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fapi\u002Fworks\u002F01kxpr0znfbgejamwnjjsb1qxe\u002Freviews",20]
