Whiskey Thief
The Bourbon Country Series Book 1
by Chris Bostic
Genre: Psychological Thriller, Romantic Suspense 

When their Kentucky bourbon tour takes a turn for the worse, two engaged couples join up with strangers to seek shelter in the ruins of an old distillery. Grace encounters more than abandoned spirits on the decaying property, bringing her semi-comfortable world crashing down.
Tensions pull at the group, splintering the couples into teams. Only it’s hard for Grace to know what side to be on when bonds are tested, and opposites no longer attract. Questions abound. Who really are the strangers they paired up with? Should she break convenient bonds for a risky one? Then again, does it even matter if they don’t make it out alive?
Please be advised – The Bourbon Country Series features fast-paced adult psychological thrillers where sexual assault, PTSD, self-blame, and functional alcoholism combine to form a potent blend. Recommended for mature audiences, ages 18+

Kentucky Hug
The Bourbon Country Series Book 2 

It’s been six long months since Grace’s world turned upside down. She unexpectedly finds herself back in bourbon country with Vince, dredging up memories barely concealed. Anxiety builds when a mysterious stranger shadows them, but it’s her own indecisiveness that first leads to misadventure.
Just like a flight of unfamiliar bourbons, Grace can only wonder if each of her trials will unleash a rot gut burn or a warm Kentucky Hug. More likely a mixture of both.
Please be advised – The Bourbon Country Series features fast-paced adult psychological thrillers where sexual assault, PTSD, self-blame, and functional alcoholism combine to form a potent blend. Recommended for mature audiences, ages 18+

Barrel Strength
The Bourbon Country Series Book 3 

After another nine solid months, things couldn’t be going much better for Grace. Life has settled into a comfortable routine. So, of course, she’s headed back to bourbon country with Vince. Maybe not the destination wedding she’d been dreaming about more recently, but the venue couldn’t be any more perfect. Or so they thought.
Wedding day should be a joyous occasion for the couple, but nothing is ever easy for them—especially when a manhunt locks down the venue and spirits flow from sleeping barrels.
Please be advised – The Bourbon Country Series features fast-paced adult psychological thrillers where sexual assault, PTSD, self-blame, and functional alcoholism combine to form a potent blend. Recommended for mature audiences, ages 18+

GUEST POST

Can you, for those who don't know you already, tell something about yourself and how you became an author?

My writing journey started in 2012. I used to read quite a bit. I ended up reading the Hunger Game Trilogy three times (in a row!) and couldn’t decide what I wanted to tackle next. So I decided to try my hand at writing.


Where were you born/grew up at?

I was born and raised in suburban Chicago, but you would never guess that now. Other than an abiding love for Cubs baseball and Bears football, I’m long detached from Chicago. I moved to Missouri years ago and spend most of my weekends out in the country.


What are you passionate about these days?

Bourbon. Lots of other things too, like my family, of course. It’s back to school time, which has been a nice but strange change from the last six months with everyone at home. In terms of other hobbies or passions, I have a soft spot for quiet places, hiking, fishing…. Mostly outdoorsy things and some woodworking. I’ve also been experimenting with sandblasting custom art/names/logos on metal cups and glass.


What do you do to unwind and relax?

I’m an avid outdoorsman. Hiking, kayaking/canoeing, fishing, hunting. Pretty much anything outdoors, even if it’s just sitting on the deck staring at the woods.


How to find time to write as a parent?

With my early writing, I was most productive while my kids were at sports practices. I’ve not coached much, so I would spend an hour or two during their practices on my laptop. Now that they’re growing out of sports, it’s more late nights and early mornings when the house is quiet.


Describe yourself in 5 words or less!

Thorough, hard-worker, dedicated, quiet/reserved, regimented. Probably not the normal recipe for a creative person, but it works okay for me.


When did you first consider yourself a writer?

Probably sometime in 2013. I started putting together a couple novels in 2012, and spend most of that year figuring out how to write effectively. It was a steep learning curve, but I worked hard at it. By the end of 2012 I had a couple books finished, and one represented by an indie publisher. That’s when it started to feel real.


Which of your novels can you imagine made into a movie?

I’ve actually just adapted Whiskey Thief into a screenplay. I’ve recently entered a few contests with the hope that maybe I can catch a break. Fingers and toes crossed on that, though I don’t really expect much to come of it. But I think it would make a great suspenseful thriller.
