About this ebook

Ainsley Harris knows two things for sure:

She’ll do whatever it takes to keep her friends and family safe.

And she’s been in love with her best friend for years.

Loch Collins has no idea that she loves him. He refuses to look past the comfort of friendship because he has a business to run, a past to keep hidden, and a daughter to raise alone. He can’t risk losing Ainsley by giving into the temptation that has burned in his veins for years.

But one night changes everything and the next night breaks the rules.

Only something is coming for the small, fractured family they’ve created. And if Loch isn’t careful, he’ll lose everything he fought to protect—even if it means breaking his best friend’s heart to keep her safe.

I love Lock and Ainsley! Actually, I've loved Ainsley since the first Whiskey and Lies book and I KNEW she belonged in that family. For the life of me, I couldn't figure out why the two of them didn't just get on with it! What had happened to cause them to friend zone each other? In fact, I was afraid that some new hussy would swoop in and steal him! But then I reassured myself that Carrie Ann Ryan wouldn't do that to us ... would she? Loch had always been a bit of an enigma. I knew that he had a past; he was more than just a gym owner/physical trainer/security guy. But I didn't dream that his past was so dangerous that it would cause such a scary situation for Whiskey. A murder and a kidnapping? And who could have imagined our little teacher being such a beast! All those self defense classes really paid off for our Ainsley! She's my shero! But the love between those two is the best kind. Full of liking and respect in addition to the physical attraction, that makes a lasting relationship. Real best friends in addition to lovers, once Loch got his head out of his tail. I get that he thought that he was protecting her, but I was reading to strangle him! For me, the only thing that would have made this story better was if Tabby and her Alex would have come to visit. I'm sad to see this series end, but look forward to the next arc set in the Montgomery World.

Whiskey and Lies #3, YAY!!! Ainsley and Loch finally! This can be read as a standalone as with most of her Contemporary Romance. Loch and Ainsley have been best friends for over ten years, she's helped take care of Loch's daughter when Misty's mother abandoned her and she has always been there content to be his best friend always hoping she could be more. Loch has kept Ainsley in the friend zone because he always feared he never deserved a happy ending, always assuming that sex would ruin everything and she'd not only leave him but Misty too. But Loch can't stand the thought of her with anyone else and one night changes their entire relationship the night they give in to their desire. Unfortunately sex fries their brains, especially Loch's, and they became unable to communicate with each other and they start fighting. It wasn't the only life changing event to happen that night a dead body was discovered behind Loch's gym and now his past is coming back to get him. Overall, another outstanding book by Carrie Ann Ryan. I love the Collins and the town of Whiskey. The book had a great epilogue, very nice HEA wrap up for the family. Third person perspective that switches between Ainsley and Loch so you do learn what Loch's deal is and understand where he's coming from. This is a very emotional story it does deal mostly with Ainsley and Loch's relationship and Loch's emotional issues. The external conflict is a doozie it was really intense there at the end, wow. As sad as I am to see this series end I am anxious for the upcoming series Ryan has planned.

I have to say, it’s a toss up at this point if I love the Montgomerys or the spin off families more. Carrie Ann Ryan has created a very large and complex world. In the last of the Whiskey and Lies series, we FINALLY get Loch and Ainsley’s story. I’ve been Team Ainsley since Whiskey Secrets. I think she’s a strong female character. The insights we get into her and her past in Whiskey Undone illustrate that fact. While she doesn’t believe she’s enough, she proves time and again she’s more. I wasn’t sure about Loch. Don’t get me wrong, Ryan does growly loner like nobody’s business, but she was playing Loch close to the vest. That made it hard to get a read on him. I will say, I was ready to throat punch him more than once at the beginning of this book. But because Ryan knows what she’s doing, that just made it even sweeter when we finally got to see what Loch was keeping hidden away. Ryan does a great job with the suspense in Whiskey Undone. She keeps you on your toes and guessing. There’s more than once I was on the edge of my seat, and I was up past my bedtime because I just had to know what happened next. Trust me, it was totally worth it. While I’m sad to see the end of the Whiskey and Lies series, Ryan brought yet another amazing family to life. I’m going to miss the Collins and Whiskey, PA.
