Driving Whiskey Wild by Melissa Foster
5.0
Bullet “Bull” Whiskey has an interesting conversation with his sister about Finlay Wilson. Finlay gives the reader the first impression of Bullet – my screen started to let off some steam after that. Finlay is an experience and one I was happy to explore.
Be prepared to get a bellyache – you’re going to spend a lot of time laughing. There’s a sexual tension that will be hard to miss. Bullet has a slight corner on the bad boy ‘tude. But believe me when I say that Finlay does a great job in giving that ‘tude back at him.
I don’t know how our author did it, or if it’s because I’ve been listening to a lot of audiobooks, but I could hear every word being spoken by these two characters. It’s like I’m standing in the background watching their interactions play out. Ok I almost did it – I almost laughed out loud. You’ll love the scene too when you read it. But I had to press my thumb over my lips to hold it in. Think lunchroom with male co-worker and you would do the same. The only hint I’ll give you about the scene is it involves Finlay and a puppy. And don’t go searching for it because you have to read what leads up to it. And as you follow the whole scene expect to sing – again, male co-worker so I had to sing the song in my head.
I love that about this author and why this has to be one of my favorites to date. This is one book that it will be my pleasure to read over and over again. And if it comes out in audio then that will just double my pleasure. I know when you’re doing a review sometimes people get a little more critical and look for something to criticize or are disappointed in. Since I’m not an author or have a degree in humor, journalism, or English; I’ll leave that to the professionals.
So I guess that leaves me with disappointment. The only disappointment I have, ok maybe two, is that these people do not exist and I can’t go and spend some quality time with them. But in a way that’s not true because I can visit them any time I open this book. And I can always stroll around Boston and just pop into a pub – just have to hope they won’t mind me sitting there in a corner, or even at the bar, just reading. If this were a physical book, you can bet that you would see a lot of wear and tear from the many times that I’ve opened and enjoyed it.
I was not compensated nor was I required to write a positive review. The opinions I have expressed are my own.
