Buckle up for a wild ride as Dixie Whiskey finds forever love in TAMING MY WHISKEY, a funny, sexy, and emotionally riveting standalone romance by New York Times bestselling author Melissa Foster. The perfect love story for those who enjoy fiercely loyal and insanely sexy alpha heroes, smart, sassy heroines, strong family bonds, bikers, babies, and more! In TAMING MY WHISKEY… WHISKEY…
Being the princess of the Dark Knights motorcycle club doesn’t come with a white knight or a fairy-tale castle, and that’s okay, because Dixie Whiskey has never needed a man to slay her dragons or make her whole. Even so, after watching each of her brothers fall in love, she’d sure like a shot at her own happily ever after. But with the Dark Knights watching over her and the only man she’s ever wanted out of reach, she’s not holding her breath.
As the launch of Silver-Stone Cycles’ biggest line approaches, Jace Stone is left needing a favor from the one woman who holds the power to take him to his knees. He knows when it comes to sinfully gorgeous and sharp-tongued Dixie Whiskey, he must stay on his toes and keep his walls firmly in place. But Jace needs her for his business—and Jace Stone always gets what he wants.
When the tall, gruff, and darkly handsome biker presents an opportunity that any other woman might see as the chance of a lifetime, Dixie turns him down flat. But Jace is determined, and he pulls out all the stops—sending Dixie’s overprotective brothers up in arms. Rebellious Dixie takes a stand—going after the freedom, and the man, she’s always wanted. One scorching kiss leads to an undeniable connection, but Jace isn’t looking to be tied down, and Dixie refuses to play second fiddle. Can two untamable hearts find forever love in each other’s arms?

I can’t get enough of the Whiskey’s! Dixie has been such a favorite character for me for so long now I knew going in I was going to be in love, and I was, but I still found myself surprised by how much I loved her story! She is such a strong, vibrant, force I knew it’d take one heck of a man to win her heart and Melissa Foster did not disappoint with her man Jace Stone.
These two are like two fires coming together and exploding into an inferno with the chemistry, heat and sparks that go flying every time they’re together. Both stubborn, tough, and having huge hearts these two were more alike than I can say in certain aspects. It was blatantly clear even when they were butting heads Jace and Dixie were a perfect match.
Their journey to happiness was filled with ups and downs and a whole lot of heart. Brilliantly written I was addicted to their story and found myself once again head over heels in love with this couple.
TAMING MY WHISKEY, the much anticipated sixth book in Melissa Foster’s The Whiskeys series is here and man was it worth the wait! She’s the tough girl only daughter in a family of big, boisterous biker guys … he’s the self-made bike designer who’s been at the edge of her world since she was a teenager. Their super sexy friends to lovers story is just what Whiskey fans have been anticipating … steamy, goodhearted and filled with that family we love so much.
Dixie has been one of my favs in the family since the first introduction of her so many books ago. She loves her family hard, is devoted to all things Whiskey and has the attitude to pull off being around the strong, dominating figures in her life.
Jace is breathtaking. He’s strong, he’s accomplished and he’s just the right match for the woman who can cut a man off at the knees with just one look.
I highly recommend this book to anyone who loves a steamy love story filled with laughs, love and a huge supporting cast of family and friends. You can’t go wrong with any book in the series and I recommend you fall in love with the Whiskeys right alongside me.
I love Jace and Dixie! If you haven’t read the other books in this series, not to worry. You don’t have to as it stands alone and there is enough explanation of the rest of the family that you are not completely lost. This is about Jace and Dixie and their unrequited love for each other, or so they thought. I love when the man says he is not looking for permanency but then comes the bad ass chick that changes his mind. Dixie is for Jace and there is no denying it. I love their fire and their back and forth and it’s just explosive.
If I could give this book more than 5 stars, I would! I’ve loved the Whiskeys right from the beginning. True Blue captured my heart, and the Whiskeys held it close. I knew it would take someone special to hold on to Dixie, someone as strong as she, someone who held family in as much importance as she. And boy, this author had someone special waiting for Dixie!
Dixie is the princess of the Dark Knights, and she is surrounded by over protective brothers. She has grown up having to be strong enough to stand her ground, and stand up to those same boys! She has watched her brothers fall in love, and wants that special connection that they have, but knows her own worth, knows that she deserves to wait for the one that will love her, be there for her.
Jace is tough on the outside, all business, but he is soft on the inside. He’s been hurt before, and has made his life all about work. He doesn’t think he wants, or can have, roots. He lives a nomad’s lifestyle, constantly traveling, moving from place to place, for his business empire. But Dixie touches something inside him, something in his soul. He just has to let go of that iron control long enough to realize that he, too, deserves that connection and love that Dixie is looking for.
Jace and Dixie……their story was beautiful, but also heart wrenching. The anguish, heart ache, and misery these two went through to get to their HEA was powerful. I loved how strong Dixie was, despite the hurt she was dealing with. I love that she knew her worth, and held out for what she deserved. I love how Jace adored Dixie, even when he was convinced he didn’t deserve her. These two had obstacles to overcome, and the author had surprises in store for us (!), but in the end, love and family is all that matters! I’ve enjoyed the Whiskeys, and their stories will always be among my favorites. I’m looking forward to seeing what this author comes up with next!
I have been waiting for Dixie’s story for so long. I knew the man to capture her heart would have to some one pretty special. I was right. I loved Dixie since book one. She is tough as they come but soft on the inside. Jace was the perfect man for her. They say he speaks to her is just let melting. He says the sweetest things. All his actions are just so sweet. I loved these two together. I also loved catching up with all the whiskeys and other characters for other Love in Bloom books. This is by far one of my favorite books from Melissa. It deserves way more then five stars!
I have fallen in love with Dixie Whiskey and have been eagerly waiting for her story. Trust me when I say this story is everything you love about the Whiskey’s and so much more! I thoroughly enjoyed being part of the journey with Dixie and Jace. You knew it wouldn’t be easy with two head strong people, but you knew the journey would be worth it. I liked that we found out some past history with these two and that their ‘fate’ was sealed years ago. I was right there with Dixie through the anger and tears and confusion and when the road righted itself again. I was also excited with our friends that we got to see along the way with some fun updates as well. One of my favorite parts was that we started in Peaceful Harbor, went to New York and saw the Cape as well. Loved every single thing about this book and the ending and epilogue, I would give that 10 stars if I could. I always like to pick a favorite quote from the books I read and this book had so many amazing ones but one of my favorites is, “Do you want to tell me why you look like you got all dressed up for a hot date, ended up being passed around a pool hall, hitched a ride to Vegas, got ditched at the altar, and woke up at the bottom of a barrel of tequila?” I have to say this is definitely my favorite Whiskey book and one of my favorite reads for 2019.
This series is wonderful and I love the dynamics of the Whiskeys and the Dark Knights. They are strong, good people who are engaged in their community and have a lot of love for everybody.
I confess that Dixie Whiskey was kind of a enigma to me from the earlier books, she was strong like her brothers but was always lacking something. Now this book fills some blanks of Dixie and we understand her more and why she is the strong, decisive woman that she is now.
Jace Stone is older, more experience but everything he lived so far was preparing him to deal with the hurricane Dixie, he did not see that coming… Together they are pure combustion and this is what makes the book so good. Their chemistry is undeniable and Melissa Foster managed to bring these characters together despite of their stubborness. The book is great and you will certainly love it!
Wow, just wow! Taming My Whiskey was both combustible and heartbreaking. Dixie Whiskey is truly a strong woman. She has 3 older alpha brothers that have protected her all her life so much that she has friends set her up with guys from out of town just for a date. She is also smart, funny, wild and kind and can take a man down with a comment or a quip. She has to be as she runs two family businesses and works in the biker bar. Has she met her match? Jace Stone floats in and out of Her life. He is a biker, motorcycle designer and business owner. He comes to town to ask Dixie to be the face of his companies new line of motorcycles and clothing. The interactions of Jace and Dixie provide humor but their story is also heartbreaking. Melissa Foster’s writing is exceptional and this book kept me on edge. I truly could not put it down. It is a stand alone but you will fall in love with characters and want to read more.
I have been anticipating Dixie’s story since we were introduced to the Whiskey family and I was not disappointed in her book. Dixie comes from a family of over protective brothers and needs someone who is strong enough to stand up to them. Jace Stone caught Dixie’s eye back when she was only eighteen. Needless to say both Dixie and Jace have grown up and matured over the years and the spark is still there. Jace has never had a relationship amd has no plans to settle down, fully focused on his business. So why then can he not get Dixie out of his mind. When Dixie auctions herself off for charity Jace can’t have anyone else bid on her. Jace and Dixie have a combustible hear and I love them together. I’m so glad Jace is alpha enough to stand up to her brothers but sweet and sensitive enough to treat Dixie the way she deserves to be treated. I absolutely loved Dixie and Jace’s book. I was so sad when it came to an end.
I Love finding a book that I CAN’T put down. I love being pulled into a world that the author has created that I don’t ever want to leave. If you’re like me you’ll LOVE Taming My Whiskey by Melissa Foster. I am a series reader and have read the other books in this series. However, they are all stand alone books. If this is your first book you’ll have no problem whatever so ever! I knew it would take a pretty special man to the t right man for Dixie Whiskey. Foster sure delivered when she introduced us to Jace. Dixie had fallen for Jace when she was a young 18 year old, and he’d never been able to forget her. Bringing those two characters together showed so much chemistry. They each needed someone so much like themselves to actually give love a chance. Read it, you won’t want to put it down.
Sizzle…Sizzle…Sizzle. Really that’s the best word to sum up this book. I’m so happy after many books of reading about Dixie and seeing her hold her own, she finally got her happily ever after. As much as I fell in love with Jade, Dixie is the real star of his book. She doesn’t put up with any b.s. I also love all the updates on the Whiskey family, plus some Cape time. I really hope Maddox will get a book as well.
#JaceandDixie4Ever
I loved the Whiskeys since book one. I hold this family near and dear to my heart. With every book written about the Whiskeys by Melissa Foster, you fall deeper and deeper.
Taming My Whiskey was thrilling and nerve wrecking at the same time. I fell in love with love all over again. That is the magic of reading Melissa’s books. She will make you feel the “firsts” all over again. I could not get enough! When I was done reading the book, my love for Jace and Dixie was out of this world. I would love to stay forever in their book world!
If you are a fan of the Whiskeys, or heck even a newbie, you do not want to miss out! Taming My Whiskey left a warm spot in my heart and deep down to my bones!!
“Whiskey Fever”
Theres only one girl that Jace wants for the face of his calendar and that’s Dixie Whiskey. Wanting to get out from her brothers over protective selves she agrees to do the calendar. Jace always saw her as the little sister to his friends but now shes all woman and Jace cam see her that way anymore. Mixing business with pleasure can lead to so much more.
This book is hot. The intensity between Jace and Dixie is pure fire. I need more Whiskeys to quench this fever!
Talk about sizzling chemistry – these two had it in spades… I’m not sure what I expected of this story but it gave me all the feels.It was funny, hot and steamy and yet sweet and vulnerable in all the right places.
I adored Dixie and her strong spirit. And I loved Jace even when he was trying to convince himself he wasn’t the forever kinda guy. Jace’s “awakening” with giving in into his desire was my favorite part of this book.
I haven’t read much of Melissa Forster books but that changes now because I need more books like this in my life.

TAMING MY WHISKEY is the sixth instalment in Melissa Foster’s contemporary, adult THE WHISKEYS: DARK KNIGHTS OF PEACEFUL HARBOR erotic, romance series. This is only daughter, bar owner and bookkeeper Dixie Whiskey, and Silver-Stone Cycles owners/tattoo artist Jace Stone’s story line. TAMING MY WHISKEY can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous instalments is revealed where necessary. The Whiskeys series is a spin off from the author’s Bradens of Peaceful Harbor. There is a slight MC biker theme throughout the series as the Whiskeys are part of the local Dark Knights MC. Several characters cross over between series for cohesion, camaraderie, and familiarity.
Told from dual third person perspectives (Dixie and Jace ) TAMING MY WHISKEY follows the building relationship between bar owner and book keeper Dixie Whiskey, and Silver-Stone Cycles owners/tattoo artist Jace Stone. Dixie is hoping to raise money for the local women’s shelter, and a bachelor auction is the perfect venue but billionaire businessman Jace Stone has refused all of Dixie’s requests to participate. When Dixie offers herself up for auction, Jace outbids everyone else in return for a favour from our story line heroine. What ensues is the building relationship and romance between Jace and Dixie, and the fall-out when Dixie loses her heart to a man who makes no promises for the future.
Jace Stone is about to launch his upscale motorcycle line of clothing, and Dixie is the perfect person to help promote and model his fashion apparel. Jace is the perpetual bachelor, nearing forty years old, and refuses to be tied down to any one woman but something about Dixie tugs at his heart. Dixie Whiskey fell in love with Jace Stone years before but no attempts at seduction have worked their way into Jace’s heart. Hoping for her own happily ever after, Dixie struggles with her attraction to a man who doesn’t do relationships, and refuses to fall in love.
The relationship between Dixie and Jace is one of immediate attraction but Jace is too busy with his business to settle down. Having had his heart broken years before, Jace refuses to lose his heart to anyone else including the woman that he currently is unable to get out of his head. The $ex scenes are intimate, erotic and intense, without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text. The push and pull of attraction is continuously tested each time Jace Stone pulls away from the woman with whom he is falling in love.
There is a large and colorful cast of secondary and supporting characters including all of Dixie’s brothers, their significant others, and their growing families.
Melissa Foster’s world building is phenomenal. Revealing a little bit of information about each of her previous characters to keep the reader informed about the who, how and why, and how each characters adds color and continuity to the growing story line..
TAMING MY WHISKEY is an emotional story of family, friendship and unrequited love. I may have shed a tear or three every time Dixie’s heart broke a little bit more. The premise is spicy and inspiring: the characters are sassy, sexy and stubborn; the romance is sensitive, realistic and passionate. TAMING MY WHISKEY is a beautiful and uplifting story of love and courage; understanding and inspiration.
Being the only girl in the family, Dixie Whiskey had no other choice but to grow up to be tough as nails, at times she felt like it was the only way she could survive all that that her brothers threw at her. And if that was challenging enough she is also the princess of the Dark Knights motorcycle club, a club that her father, brothers, and brothers friends all belong too. Being part of the club comes with it’s advantages, but it also has some major disadvantages too, especially when it comes to her having a personal life… one of them is always in her business telling her what to do!
She is starting to grow tired of always doing what her family expects of her, she wants to branch out on her own and do something completely unexpected, something just for her. So, when a friend offers her a modeling and spokesperson gig for his upcoming motorcycle and clothing line she decides to take him up on his offer. But this offer comes with a whole other complication… Jace Stone, a billionaire biker and businessman that makes her heart skip a beat whenever he is near. She has tried for so long to deny her attraction to him and keep him at an arms length, but now that they will be working alongside one another she knows she is fighting a losing battle!
Taming My Whiskey is a sultry little literary romp that satisfied on all fronts!! This was my first time reading a book from this author, and I have to say that I was pleasantly surprised with it, it kept me on my toes from start to finish! I definitely foresee myself reaching for more of Ms. Foster’s books in the very near future. It had everything you could possibly want in a story; an addictive story line, drama to keep you intrigued, superbly crafted characters with smoldering chemistry, and plenty of toe curling action to boot!! I loved what I found between the pages of this one, and I have a feeling if you pick it up you will too, it’s words are mesmerizing and it’s characters are unforgettable! Highly recommend!
I requested an advanced copy of this title from the publisher, and I am leaving my honest and unbiased opinion.
This is one of my favourite series and when I heard Dixie was going to finally get her story I was excited to say the least and let me tell you this book was everything I expected and so much more.
This is a book that will draw you in from the very first page and you won’t want to put it down until you have read the final words in this captivating emotional love story.
Dixie Whiskey has grown up surrounded by strong men so it was going to take not only a strong man but also a very special man to win her heart and that’s where Jace Stone comes in. Jace is a man we would all love to have, he is strong, hot and very much the alpha male and that’s exactly what Dixie needs a man who will not only love and cherish her but a man who isn’t afraid of her family, the problem is that man doesn’t believe he is ready to settle down and Dixie won’t settle for second best…
A feisty sassy heroine and a strong alpha hero make this an entertaining read but it’s the family loyalty and the friendships that have been formed over this series that take this well written book to the next level that being said I still believe this book can be read as a stand-alone but I’m sure once you get a taste for the Whiskey’s you will want to try them all. Looking forward to what’s next from this very talented author.
The long awaited story of Dixie Whiskey is told in Taming My Whiskey. This book deserves twenty-five stars. I absolutely loved Taming my Whiskey. You could read this book by itself, by why would you?? Start at the beginning with Tru Blue and enjoy the Whiskey family from the beginning. As each Whiskey story has been told, Dixie has been the bad a$$ sister demanding to be heard. Dixie Whiskey has always been the princess of the Dark Knights motorcycle club. With her brothers and the club protecting her, Dixie has fought hard for everything she has. She has always known that Jace Stone was the man she wants. Jace needs Dixie to be the image for Silver-Stone Cycles’ new line. Dixie turns him down, but Jace refuses to take no for an answer. These two are so very hot together. I am so very excited that Melissa Foster gave Dixie a man deserving of her awesomeness. The Whiskey family is made up of some of the best men around and Jace is the perfect partner for the Whiskey princess. Dixie refuses to back down and in the end she and Jace end up with a perfect happily ever after.
The tension and chemistry between these two is fire! They each needed a cold shower in this book – I NEEDED a cold shower too while I was devouring this book. Unfortunately, I was on a nine hour flight. The good news is, I had Taming My Whiskey to keep me company and it was everything I wanted and more! With a sassy heroine, witty banter, and scorching chemistry I was glued to the pages and enthralled by their story. More than five stars! Taming My Whiskey gets all the stars!

This is my first book by this author and book number six of The Whiskey series. This can be read as a standalone but filled with characters from previous books and a few crossovers from other series that will sometimes make you dizzy but in a merry way.
Dixie is the youngest child of the President of the Dark Knights MC; she’s the only daughter and has three older brothers: Bear, Bullet and Bones. She’s definitely not a pushover having learned how to stand up for herself. She manages the Whiskey Bros, a family-run bar and is so busy with their business she doesn’t have time to find love or maybe because she has three domineering big brothers that scare away any potential suitor. But when an opportunity comes along to visit New York and be a part of a new campaign, she jumps at it headfirst and not only lands on her feet but might also get the chance to finally bag Jace, her teenage crush.
Jace Stone is the self-made businessman/designer of Silver-Stone Cycles whose only goal in life is to be at the top of his game, his non-existent love life is the least of his concerns. However, making Dixie his calendar girl will finally give him the chance to know the woman who has always been at the periphery of his vision since she was eighteen years old. Dixie Whiskey must be the reason he makes that slow u-turn and rethinks his priorities in life.
Although I felt a wee bit lost in the early chapters of the book trying to connect the dots in the family tree of not only the Whiskey family but of the others as well, I really enjoyed getting to know all the characters in this story. Dixie is a strong female, an accomplished businesswoman and a straight talker. Although she comes across as a ball-buster she’s also kind-hearted. Jace Stone is the alpha hunkylicious billionaire who has close ties with the Dark Knights MC and knows the Whiskey family very well. There are no obvious antagonists in this story and no third parties that will throw a spanner to the combustible chemistry between Jace and Dixie. What they have to deal with is Jace’s view in life: not putting down roots and make his business his top priority in life.
The Whiskey brothers and other family members and friends add more fun to Dixie and Jace’s story. For someone who is a tough cookie, Dixie’s weak spot is Jace and her vulnerability makes her more human and relatable. Jace and Dixie is an equal match, both are driven alphas, strong and passionate. Told in dual points of view this feel-good, melt-your-knickers contemporary romance is the perfect book to read in a lazy Sunday afternoon.
