Well this one was a disappointment. I was hoping for a sexy lesbian romance novel, but what I really got was a short story with underdeveloped characters and a plot with gaping holes and missing time. Now with most romance novels you can get around that because there are actual romance scenes. But this didn't even have any. I would not classify this is romance, if anything it's a LGBT fiction with rom-com vibes. Now I think there is more to the series but I wouldn't even try and read them because this one was so disappointing.

This is the only book I have read in the series so far and it makes me want to go back and read the others. Just so I could gain some understanding into the various backstories. It was a very unique romance and I could not help but root for them.

Whiskey Flick doesn’t claim to be more than a light read, which is good because it’s not. It’s a quick and easy read about secrets, loving the wrong (but oh-so-right) person and family. It’s a stand-alone romance but also part of a series, of which I’ve not read any other book as they are about straight characters.

In this one, Jenn has the biggest crush on her brother’s girlfriend Sasha. Right after Sasha breaks up with Henry, she and Jenn share « a moment » but Jenn can’t deal with the guilt of betraying her brother. The two women meet again three years later, their feelings are still as strong and they decide to try having a relationship while not letting anyone know. The thing with secret relationships is, they usually don’t end well.

I guess this is the author’s first F/F story, and she did an okay job (though I do agree with mahana’s take on coming-out).

This is my first time reading Ryan Ringbloom and I enjoyed this novella. There seems to be some previous Whiskey books/novellas (not sure which), but I didn't feel like i missed anything by not reading them first. I found this romance to be cute and funny even though the subject matter is taboo - Woman falls for her brother's girlfriend. No this is not a story about cheating because MC Sasha and MC Jenn got together after the breakup. Anyway, this one was the perfect length with the perfect amount of chemistry. Even though the sex was glossed over, I don't think it took away from the story (and normally I think it does in other romances).

Anyway, I will easily rate this one 4 stars.

Whisky Flick is a quick F/F romance. The writing is good and the characters are interesting. My only issue how can someone date a siblings ex?

I'm slightly disappointed in the read despite loving the LGBTQ components. I loved "Whiskey Chick" and all the follow-up installments just fell flat with me especially this novel. I just couldn't connect with the characters nor understand how nonchalant everyone was with Jenn and Sasha relationship. I mean who dates their brothers ex and can see go to a family event with a smile on their face? Sadly this series just wasn't for me but can completely understand why some readers would be drawn to this series.

4 stars!!

I love this series. It all started the Whiskey Chick for me. I loved every book. They had me laughing so hard. This one was a little different. It is a F/F story. I usually don't read F/F, but since i like Ryan Ringbloom's books so much, I gave it a shot. And what a crazy story it was. If you read the series, you will know what happened between Jenn's brother and his ex. But, now you are getting the whole entire story. And it is a dozy!!
