Truly, Madly, Whiskey

Truly, Madly, Whiskey is Bear's story! I was really curious about him, I just can't resist a sexy tattooed biker boy and Bear didn't disappoint me!

Bear waited patiently during months for a chance with Crystal. He knows she's attracted to him but she keeps him at arm's length, so he's slowly giving her time to get used to have him in her life. He's taking his time, trying to be always present in her life, especially when she's spending time with their mutual friends (I loved True and Gemma's interactions and the way they were supporting Bear and Crystal and their relationship). In fact, they're practically on a relationship even though there's no make out sessions or sex. Yet. Bear is amazing, maybe a little bit too possessive sometimes (an alpha male of course!), he's the perfect combination between hot, sexy, sweet and caring. His devotion to Crystal, the way he treats her and how he puts her feelings first is absolutely heart warming.

Crystal is not exactly what she seems to be, she tries hard to come across as a tough woman, happy with her one night stands and rough bikers, but that's just a mask. Her past is heartbreaking and there's a very good reason for the way she behaves with everyone around her and with Bear particularly. I admired her bravery, especially when she seeks the help of her therapist again and when, shortly after, she finally has a meaningful conversation with Bear about how her past shaped her personality and her relationships.

Will Crystal be able to trust Bear and let him in her heart? You have to read their angsty, heart warming, sexy story to find out!

Melissa Foster has a way to tug our emotional strings and she does it again especially with Crystal's past, I mean when Crystal finally opens up with Bear... it's so heartbreaking and emotionally charged, it's fabulously written.

Truly, Madly, Whiskey is a beautiful, emotional read, a passionate romance with plenty of funny banter and a perfect book boyfriend. It can be read as a standalone but, in my opinion, you should definitely read Tru Blue first. Can't wait for the next books featuring Bear's siblings especially Dixie's!
