Sam Wylde is ready to prove he's more than just the privileged son of a wealthy Southern dynasty.
Wyldefire Whiskey is poised to take Nashville by storm-and with any luck, overshadow the scandal of his cheating ex-girlfriend marrying his brother. The only problem? This gruff country boy has no idea how to throw a launch party that will get people talking.
The answer to everything might just be Holly Glen.
A party wrapped up in one tiny woman, Holly is tattooed, tempting, and exactly the event planner Sam needs to liven up his brand-and his life. He can give her what she needs, too.
All it will take is a ring on her finger.
Falling in real love with his fake wife was not part of the plan-but one shot of Holly isn't going to be enough.
(Formerly titled Wylde Fire and published in 2019.)
I received Second Shot of Whiskey for free. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.
Sam Wylde is climbing his way out of the mire that his ex caused by having an affair with his brother. Holly Glen is desperate and under the weight of the world. The medical bills for the care of her comatose younger sister are mounting and she needs one huge event to put her business and finances in the black. Maybe these two can help each other.
This is my first read by Sarah Robinson and it doesn’t lack spicy fire. Holly was a shy freshman while Sam was the senior jock. That didn’t stop her from fantasizing about him for over a decade. When the two run into each other over a decade later in a parking lot in their small hometown, they have an instant spark.
I don’t often quote books in my reviews, but this passage was just too good not to share. Sam really understands what the both of them need.
“Sometimes I think wounds are magnetized. Even when they heal, there is something in them that pulls to other wounds. Those souls… they can sense one another. They need one another.”
Sam Wylde – Second Shot of Whiskey by Sarah Robinson
I loved how Robinson took the spice up a notch and gave us a real story to sink our teeth into. Sam and Holly have deep hurt in their pasts and need to move on. Holly is the compassionate influence Sam needs, while Sam is the bond she’s been missing since her family tragedy.
If you love a great story, dynamic characters, and a intriguing plot, check out Second Shot of Whiskey.
