The imagery is amazing! I actually found myself right there next to you urging your purchase of said beverages. Way to start this off.

haha, great personification!

Weirdly enough I’ve never been into whiskey but anyway…This was very alluring, very seductive. I love the idea of the alcohol being a woman tempting the man into a relapse through the air of innocence. Great use of speech – especially liked the way that you got her to say his name…because alcohol knows us better than any person.

Maybe I’m reading too much into this now. Lol. Very beautiful and elaborate description of a deciding moment. I also enjoyed how you left the ending to the imagination. Perhaps the protagonist decided to walk away.

“Burnt honey bourbon” , “Caramel whiskeys” … you’ve got some gorgeously simple imagery going on there. Very good ficly. Thanks for entering =)

I was so hammered when I wrote this—I barely remember doing it. Something about being really, really into Debussy’s Clair de Lune made me want to write I think. Oh well. Thanks for the reviews!
