Logan has a past he doesn’t want to talk about, and after tonight, he intends to leave everything behind, including his all-consuming and unrequited love for Ryder.
Uncertain of his future, he stumbles upon a bar oddly named Logan’s Intoxicating Fantasy. Unable to curb his curiosity, he enters the establishment. Soon, he drinks the Amber Moon cocktail a wise old bartender named Solomon puts in front of him and finally walks into a new future. Maybe even to find a new love.
But is that what Solomon had in mind when he suggested the drink? Perhaps the strange bartender knew something Logan didn’t, like some things can’t stay in the past, including Ryder…especially if Ryder fully intends to be Logan’s future…

Review: After carrying a chip on his shoulder and years of nursing a broken heart, we follow Logan in a quirky story that centres on an art gallery that could be a bar and yet does not seem to exist.
This is a fun read and part of Amber Quill Press’s Intoxicating Fantasies series, although it is a standalone book. The premise of these books is a bit Hotel California, mysterious bar pops up and helps gives the lonely guy his fantasy, leading to his HEA.
This is a somewhat fun story and I loved the characters Logan and Ryder. I felt that their story could be a lot bigger than what we get. The quirky pop up bar where Logan gets a cocktail called Amber Moon (looks like an interesting mix to say the least!) seems to detract from the real drama surrounding these guys. However, this story was a quick and easy read, and thoroughly enjoyable.
