Whiskey Burn




From up-and-coming indie author Ava Hunter comes the first in an all-new dark western romance series following the morally gray Weston brothers at their whiskey distillery and ranch in Montana, full of spice and suspense, perfect for fans of Victoria Wilder, Paisley Hope and Catherine Cowles.

In the first book in the Weston Brothers series, an exotic dancer witnesses a murder and flees to a Montana ranch where she meets a grumpy cowboy who steals her heart...and saves her life.

Armed with an ill-gotten USB and her bags, Delilah Grant is forced to flee to a small town in Montana after witnessing a murder that threatens her safety. Needing a place to stay, she rents a room in exchange for a job at Weston Whiskey. Cooper, and ex-bull rider, Cole Weston voices his skepticism about the girl on the ranch, telling his brothers that she has secrets and is bringing trouble they don't want.

As the summer goes on, Cole and Delilah develop an unexpected connection over the losses they've experienced in their lives. Eventually, Delilah reveals to Cole why she is on the run. After an attempt on her life, Cole takes the USB to a hacker, where he learns that Mr. Please is the leader of a snuff film ring, intending to make Delilah his next victim. Cole commits to protecting her and later, confesses that he loves her. However, when she is kidnapped, Cole must find Delilah and save her before time runs out.

About the author

Ava Hunter

Ava Hunter is a strong believer in black coffee, red wine, and the there’s-only-one-bed trope. She writes contemporary romance with healthy amounts of angst where the damsels are never quite damsels, but the men they love (good, bad and rugged) are always there for them. Ava is married to her high school sweetheart, loves writing strong, stubborn women that only make their men fall harder, and adores all things pink, and can never ever get enough of protector romance.
