Smooth as Whiskey by Lyra Parish

5.0

Full ARC Review:
5/5⭐️
3.5/5 🌶️

I’m honestly not sure where to begin. I have very quickly become addicted to the Valentine, TX Series. The character development in all of these books is done so well. You become attached to the characters within the stories and even though they are all interconnected standalone books you’re able to get updates on everybody as each book comes out. It is the best! 
Smooth as Whiskey follows the story of Remi and Cash. There was a very small teaser about what the story could have become in the very first book in the series, Bless your Heart. I have been dying to read it since then knowing it would be brothers best friend, age gap and more. When I tell you this book did not disappoint…it was so freaking good and some of it was so unexpected! Also….The mouth on Dr. Cash Johnson was amazing for this story. There is a side to Remi that you learn in this story and seeing that side of Cash makes everything make so much sense. They are absolutely perfect together. 
I honestly can’t say enough about this series, next book in the series has a Handyman hottie that you are not gonna want to miss!! 
In addition to the Valentine, TX series, there are two other series I am following that are just as amazing by Lyra Parish and you should dive in! Definitely check out the Billionaire Situation series the first book, The Wife Situation, is absolutely phenomenal. Second book is coming up soon! You see a few cameos of those characters in the Valentine series and they even make a trip to Valentine in book 1! And for sure check out the Very Merry series! 2nd book is coming in November and 1st book does not disappoint!! Once again there’s a very small cameo in each of these other series from a few of these characters which is amazing the way it’s done!
