Review:
When Miranda Sweet returns to her hometown of Salvation to take over the brewery she and her sisters inherited from their Uncle Julian, she has one plan. Turn it into a profitable business and sell it. Throw into the mix small town politics, and the fact that the Sweets have been persona non grata all of her life, and you’re in for one heck of a ride.
Miranda is a strong, independent woman who knows what she wants. But, once she has to go to the local bank to ask for a business loan and sees that Logan Martin is the one she will have to convince to give her the loan, she knows that the road ahead will be steep…….for a couple of reasons. First, a Martin, or basically anyone in Salvation, doesn’t help a Sweet. Second, why does Logan still have to look good enough that she wants to take a bite?
When Logan sees Miranda and basically tells her to take a hike, he doesn’t understand why that doesn’t sit well with him. And why he can’t get rid of his lustful thoughts………… After all, he needs her to fail in order to make his father, and others in town, happy with profits from their plans for the land the brewery sits on. No sweat, right? Uh huh………….
Enemies on Tap is a wonderful story that will have you both cheering and jeering. I loved Miranda and Logan. Miranda has such a loving heart, and really does try to see the best in people, but is so tired of getting stepped on in Salvation. And, Logan starts out as a jerk, but very soon we see that he has a pretty big heart himself. The way these two come together will have everyone who reads this absolutely cheering. As for the deceitful small town politicians and gossips? You will have a jeer or two for them, but they get their due. All in all, Enemies on Tap is ultimately a story about coming to terms with ones past, forgiveness and redemption.
Since the book description says Sweet Salvation Brewery #1, I am sooooo looking forward to #2!!!
