I thought this story was light and easy to read. The characters were interesting to read about. This story is a little different. Overall I thought it was an enjoyable read. I vouluntairy read and reviewed an Advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are of my own.
50 billion lesbians and I chose the right one.
Whiskey Flick is a light, easy read in which we get Jenn's happy ending.
As the title suggests, there is a 'Flick-y' situation in which Jenn gets caught up with the wrong person who feels just right and now, as she falls for her more and more, she doesn't know what to do.
Drama, romance and some betrayal - it has it all and the story itself is quite entertaining!
I had a lot of fun reading this book as I desperately hoped for Jenn to get her happy ever after!
Light-hearted and a little comedic, it is a nice book to read when you're trying to wind down.
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?
Novellas, when done right, are so fun. A clutch of good writers are dabbling in novellas giving great short reads – the kind that can get done in a couple of hours, give you a compete experience, contain a complete relationship arc and leave you happy.
Jenn has a secret that can completely upturn her close-knit family – especially her great relationship with her brother, Henry. And then that secret comes back blazing into her life. Sasha used to be with Henry but left him just before he could propose because she was into Jenn. And now, three years later, Jenn and Sasha meet again – but this time, they can’t quite ignore their feelings for each other.
Jenn is all sorts of a mess and immature, but strangely real and likeable. Sasha is plain wow. Together they are just meant to be.
The writing is flowing and fun and the story moves smoothly. Definitely recommended.
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!!
