A Love Letter To Whiskey

I really wanted to love this book! Such a pretty cover and intriguing title. It had been on my TBR for a while and I finally got a copy of the audio version.

While the story it self was okay, I was thrown off half way through when the epilogue and authors notes came on. I had not realized the whole 2nd half of the book was Love Whiskey a book written from his perspective. I went on listening though. I got annoyed listening to much of the same content as what I had heard over the previous hours of listening. There were some new attributes, but I ended up fast forwarding to the last couple chapters and finally that epilogue.

I should have just stopped at the end of the Love Letter to Whiskey and continued to another book. I don’t feel that the second half really did anything for me.

Great beach read

First off, thank you Kandi for this free copy of the brand new duet audiobook. I adored ALLTW when I read the words for the first time, and this second shot hit just as good, without as many of the ugly tears. And OMG the "Love, Whiskey" addition told from Jamie's POV is a balm I didn't know I needed. A Love Letter to Whiskey is THE standard for angsty, slow-burn romance. You'll be a blubbering mess, but the burn makes the sweet, that much sweeter. I just want to say that I think all audiobooks should be done in this interactive duet style, or as a graphic audio. The experience is supreme and so much more immersive. There's just no comparison.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ / 5 stars

I have been a Kandi fan for several years and I have had ALLTW on my Kindle for just as long but for some reason I couldn't bring myself to read it. I knew it was going to gut me and in true #AngstQueen fashion it did, but the burn wasn't quite as bad as I feared and in the end I was left with a warm, smooth finish.

If you aren't a fan of angst and can't stand to be in almost constant turmoil I encourage you to find another read. But if you love your heart in a vice knowing that an HEA is coming, then curl up with a whiskey neat and dive into this love story for the ages.

I wanted to bring in the New Year with a bang and A Love Letter to Whiskey delivered.

"Sometimes we’re more terrified of the good things in life than we are of the bad. We feel we don’t deserve them, or that they aren’t real, that they’ll disappear quickly and easily and we’ll be left in the ruins."

"I read romance because it’s fun to fall in love. And with romance books, I get to do it over and over. I get to be different types of lovers, I get to feel the heartbreak of love and the successes. Love is the most powerful and real emotion we feel, and I think it’s sort of magical that we can experience some of the greatest loves of all time through books."
