Review: This is an amazing story and looking forward to the rest. Well done, Melissa Foster. - ~~~~~5 AMAZING STARS ~~~~~ Wow, I didn't know anyone could be selfless but Melissa found the one man who I think could fit the bill. Truman or Tru if you were to look at him you might want to take a step back because of his appearance, but if you were to get to know him, you would find out that he is one of the most loving and caring man you would ever meet. When Tru was younger he went to jail for a murder he did not commit. His younger brother did. He was not supposed to go to jail and he would be able to still protect his brother, but, their bitch of a mother had him put away. For six years Tru served in jail. When he got out he tried to find his brother who had ended up like their mother hooked on drugs. His brother was so high he told him to go to hell. Then he went underground until a night that Tru will never forget. When his phone rang six months out of prison. He let it ring not answering it and on the third time it started to ring he thought something might be wrong so he answered and it changed his life forever. Their mother was unresponsive. When Tru got to the address Quincy gave him he went inside after listening to all of the screaming. His gut twisted inside but he went anyway. When he was inside his brother told him that she had died. The screaming he found out was a little girl and a baby. He asked if they were Quincy's but he said no they were their moms. Tru ran over picking them up to quiet them down. They were filthy and had on dirty diapers. He could not believe the condition they were living in. Quincy told them they were born on the streets no birth certificates. Tru asked him how he could let them live like this and until he wanted to get cleaned up and off the drugs not to come near the kids again. He stormed out after grabbing some diapers and a nasty smelling blanket. When he got home he washed them up and put them on one of his shirts, then went to the store to get them somethings they would need. When he was decided what kind of diapers and formula to get he noticed a nice looking woman checking them out. She come over to help and she was a blessing. Helping him get all of the things he would need. She kept asking questions he was not ready to answer. Gemma was a woman who wanted love. She wanted to be loved and to have children of her own. But, that would never happen for her, well the having kids part anyway. She grew up in an environment where everything was loveless. She was taken care of by nannies. She was in her own kind of prison. Now she give little girls one day to be what ever they want with her princess for a day business. Gemma and Tru shared something at the store and she could not get him out of her mind. She stopped by to drop off her car and to see the babies. She wanted to see how he was settling in with them. The more they talked the more she liked him. As time went on they were very hot and heavy for each other and falling for each other, but being the guy Tru is before he could go all the way with her he had to tell her the truth. Well, the truth that he told everyone, that he was in prison for murder. After he told her she ran away crying. He wanted her in their lives she made things better for him and for the kids, but like his friends said he might never see her again. He sent her pictures that he had drawn of his past with little notes. He didn't want to give up. Crystal (Gemma's best friend) noticed something was up and did what she had to do to get it out of her. After Gemma told her what happened Crystal tried to tell her that he did what anyone would do if faced with that. After a few more days Gemma could not get him or the kids out of his mind. She went to see him. Let's just say things get heated and not in a bad way. Their bond they formed is so special and so loving. You will be brought into the story that you will not want to ever get out of it. I don't want to spill all of the juicy details or how it ended. I want you to read the book so you can see what an amazing story it really is and I am so looking forward to the rest of the gang finding their true love as well. Melissa Foster never disappoints. All of her books are amazing and I am happy to say she is one of my favorite authors. I encourage you to read any and all of her books. Does Tru and Gemma get their happy ever after? Does he get to keep the kids? What happens with Quincy? Those are things you will find out when you read it. Until Next Time: Happy Reading. Review: Great start to the series! Heartwarming story balanced with steamy romance! - Tru Blue, book one in The Whiskeys: Dark Knights at Peaceful Harbor, is the first book I have read by Melissa Foster. It won't be the last!

Melissa Foster brought lots of emotions to her writing. Be sure to have tissues handy! Yet, when it came to romance and love--WOW! Melissa didn't hesitate to bring the heat! Definitely had tingles and goosebumps from Melissa's passionate, intense, and fiery love scenes! Melissa Foster's wordcraft is second to none! Both the main protagonists and the support characters were easy to relate to, and I wanted to squeeze the motorcycle-riding Whiskey brothers, like they were great big teddy bears, not hardcore, Alpha baddies! Melissa Foster did a fantastic job in creating complex, three-dimensional characters. Each character was a perfect fit for their role in the scene—a testimony to Melissa Foster's writing talent.

This book. Can you give more than 5 stars? This book needs more than 5 stars. I loved, loved, loved this raw, heartwarming, and healing romance. This beautifully written and expertly delivered love story between Gemma and Tru will give you all the swoony swoons while also pulling at your heartstrings with all the emotions. Truman is 6 months out from serving a 6 year prison sentence for manslaughter when he gets a panicked called from his dug addicted younger brother asking him to come help him. That’s how Truman learns his mother has died from an overdose and he becomes an instant parent to two additional siblings who he did not know anything about. Gemma runs Princess for a day and struggles with her own past. When she stumbles on Tru at Walmart trying to buy basically everything for a baby and a toddler who are dressed only in his oversized T-shirts, she helps him and her heart becomes invested in him and the kids. As they continue toward their HEA, there are a lot of truths to learn and accept, a lot of hurdles to overcome, and a lot of baggage to unpack. The story included sweet moments, steamy scenes, chuckles, supportive friends, messy families, painful pasts, and all the heart squeezing love. All of Melissa Foster’s books have a central theme of family who accept you as you are - those we are born into and those we create. This book is no different. I love Melissa’s characters and families. And I am so looking forward to reading the next book in this series. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.jp/products/105791209-tru-blue-sexy-standalone-romance-the-whiskeys-dark-knights-at](https://www.desertcart.jp/products/105791209-tru-blue-sexy-standalone-romance-the-whiskeys-dark-knights-at) --- *Product available on Desertcart Japan* *Store origin: JP* *Last updated: 2026-10-25*
