Description

He's a natural-born protector, a Dark Knights biker, and a hell of a rancher. What happens when he falls for a woman who has no idea who she really is? 
When Sullivan Tate escaped from a cult, leaving behind the only life she’d ever known, she thought she’d already endured the most difficult things she’d ever have to deal with. She knew she needed to figure out who she was, but she hadn’t expected to fall for overprotective and sexy-as-hell Callahan “Cowboy” Whiskey along the way. How can she give her heart to a man who has always known exactly who he is, when she’s only just begun figuring that out about herself?

  • Finding healing and love

    Phew - the feels in this book - laughing, crying, swooning, cringing, teeth gritting, and cheering. It packs quite an emotional punch. The story was expertly written, meticulously planned and flawlessly delivered and included engaging dialogue, three dimensional characters who grow, and a captivating storyline. Sully was kidnapped when she was 4 and brought to a cult where she suffered isolation, abuse and deprivation. After 2 decades she escaped and ends up at Redemption Ranch. Cowboy’s family runs Redemption Ranch to help others heal. He feels connected to the young girl from the missing poster and that connection is instant for Sully as well. Their deeper relationship develops organically and naturally as Sully begins her healing journey. I just loved the way Cowboy gently, lovingly, and beautifully helped Sully come out of the prison of her past experiences and begin to shine even when he knows he might only have her in his life briefly. The story included sweet moments, painful pasts, steamy scenes, supportive family and friends, heart clenches, fun, healing, and love. All of Melissa Foster’s books have a central theme of family - those we are born into and those we create - and so much beautiful heart squeezing love. This book is no exception, Redemption Ranch and the families that live there are the embodiment of family and love. I am looking forward to the next book in this series.

    This was a fantastic book so full of emotions . Sully had been taken at the age of four and taken and raised in a cult . Callahan and his family helped people and animals after abuse and life had damaged their lives . This is Sully’s telling of her abuse at the hands of the males while at the compound and then her escape . Her story will break your heart .
  • What a read!

    What a read! Callahan has worked hard to build a life on the ranch, and has made it his whole personality and life, staying single and unattached so he can keep his focus on his career. Sullivan has run away from the cult that she’s grown up in, terrified after she finds out that the members are looking for her but is determined to get away after the abuse she has suffered at their hands for years. Initially Callahan is not thrilled with watching over Sullivan, but as he gets to know her, he starts to develop feelings, and he works to give her all the firsts on her list that she never experienced. As she continues to spend time with Callahan, Sullivan starts to develop the same feelings, especially seeing how he works to give her everything she never had due to the cult. I loved how these two built a relationship and the shock of the book finding out Sullivan’s true identity, and it made it such a great read. I can’t wait to see who’s next from Redemption Ranch! I voluntarily read and reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.

    PHENOMENAL. Melissa at her absolute best. There aren’t words to describe how much I LOVED Callahan and Sully. My heart was invested from page one!

    I have waited for Sully's story ever since she was introduced to us in Jordan and Jax's HEA with bated breath, and in true Melissa Foster fashion I was not disappointed. Sully not only found her place in this world but found her family, her voice, and her forever. A serious subject was covered in this book and it was done with grace and dignity to allow the character to come into herself on her timeline, while in real life it could take longer you understand why things moved in time the way they did.

    From the moment I began reading “For the Love of Whiskey” I fell in love with Sully and Callahan’s special friendship as he patiently held her hand and reassured her that she was finally safe and that she could count on him to chase away her fears. Callahan is so dreamy and I quickly fell under his spell as he proudly showed Sully around the ranch. I could envision Sully’s expression, wide-eyed and curious, as she took in the rescue horses and beautiful scenery as she contemplated how wonderful life could be. Callahan is a thoughtful and caring man who was never in a rush when it came to Sully’s feelings and he let her decide how much she wanted to share with him about her past. He listened intently to Sully and offered advice when needed, and a friendly hug when things got to be too much. Over time, he watched the light return to Sully’s eyes and her smile became even brighter, as she worked hard to put the darkness behind her. Callahan knew he was in over his head with his feelings for Sully, but there was nothing he could do about it. Callahan was certain that fate had brought them together and he vowed to always keep her safe, make her smile, and promise her the world.

    This storyline is both heart and gut wrenching, an emotional roller-coaster. Melissa Foster does not back down from including storylines about the dark side of life, while at the same time seeking justice for the innocent. All the while she weaves love and healing into the story. Sully’s story will tear out your heart, make you cry, piss you off and shout encouragement over and over. Cowboy is the perfect balance of support, overprotectiveness, kindness, and love for Sully. A wonderfully written story of redemption and love.
  • One of my top stories!!

    I really enjoyed Sully and Callahan’s (Cowboy) story! Regardless of the timelines their connection is true and deep. Sully is strong willed and now that she’s free and gaining more confidence she wants to experience so much. She’s so very fortunate to have been taken in by such loving, supportive and nurturing people at Redemption Ranch. And having Callahan as her protector as well as a man that will let her find herself and encourages her to spread her wings and go after what she wants and needs is so special for Sully. He is always looking out for her and her best interests. This is one of my top favorite stories.
  • Rollercoaster to forever!

    Oh my!! Callahan “Cowboy” Whiskey and Sullivan “Sully” Tate were just amazing. Melissa Foster has knocked this one out of the park! From the moment their story started you could just feel the angst, passion, love, and every other emotion you can think come off the page. I think Cowboy has just become my favorite Whiskey at Redemption Ranch so far. Callahan “Cowboy” Whiskey is a born protector. From the moment he sees Sully when his family takes her in/rescues her to keep her safe, Cowboy has done nothing but protect and try his best not to fall for her. Easier said than done. Sully found the strength to escape an oppressive cult where she was held captive for the last 20 years/since she was 4 yrs old. With the help of everyone at Redemption Ranch Sully begins to heal and find her own “voice” and confidence. Will Cowboy claim his true love or will he allow her to leave the ranch for what he believes her life should become? Will Sully accept Cowboy’s decision or will she use that new found voice of hers to fight for her heart? Love big families that love big? Then you will love For the Love of Whiskey!! *****

    This is such a touching story. There are a lot of emotions and it is more than just a romance, the redemption ranch offers more than a place to stay. I loved their story but I loved Sulky’s journey even more.
