⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5
🌶️.5/5
This one will give you mild suspense, a stalking ex boyfriend, and miscommunication over the funniest reason (so not serious!)
Miranda has always toured with the band and did their outfits for them, but never realized that Ben had feelings for her. But, now Miranda is dealing with a stalking ex boyfriend and hasn’t told anyone about it. But, once Ben finds out his protective senses kick in and he won’t allow that. Ben has feelings for Miranda but is respectful and doesn’t want to be a one night stand. But when they recognize their feelings they can’t keep their hands off each other even if it’s in a conference room against a wall. But, that ex just can’t take a hint and continues stalking until something major happens when Miranda leaves Ben due to the “miscommunication” issue (which again is hilarious) of course, it’s wrapped up with a happily ever after!
Another great short story that doesn’t lack anything! Highly recommend if you want a short story filled with plot, mild spice, some humor and a little suspense! Fantastic job K.M.

This story follows Miranda and Ben, two characters whose connection has been building for years.
Miranda works as the talented seamstress for the band Chaotic Notes, handling everything from wardrobe fixes to custom designs for the group’s performances. She’s hardworking, creative, and has always shared an easy friendship with Ben, one of the band members. Ben, on the other hand, has been quietly—and not so quietly—head over heels for Miranda for as long as he can remember. His feelings run deep, but timing has never been on his side.
For most of their friendship, Miranda has been in a long-term relationship, which has kept Ben from ever acting on his feelings. But during the band’s last tour, everything changes when Miranda breaks up with her boyfriend. Unfortunately, the breakup doesn’t go smoothly—her ex doesn’t take it well, and that emotional fallout adds another layer of tension and uncertainty to Miranda’s life.
Sensing an opportunity but also wanting to be respectful, Ben decides it’s finally time to take a chance—to show Miranda that their friendship could become something more. The story explores the delicate shift between friends and lovers, filled with heart, hope, and a touch of rockstar chaos.
The chemistry between Miranda and Ben feels natural and deeply rooted in their shared history, which makes their romance all the more satisfying to watch unfold. The author does a wonderful job of blending emotional moments with lighthearted banter and behind-the-scenes glimpses of band life, giving readers both sweetness and a bit of drama.
Disclaimer: I didn’t read Book 1 before diving into this one, and while I was still able to follow along, I highly recommend reading the first book beforehand. This story does reveal some key details that will spoil parts of Book 1, so if you want the full experience and emotional buildup, definitely start at the beginning of the series.
Overall, this was a heartfelt and engaging read that perfectly balances romance, friendship, and the chaos of life on tour.

Cute, fast lightly spicy romance!
Overall: 4 ⭐
Plot: 3.5 📍
Spice: 2.5 ❤️🔥
Most sweet, with slightly spicy scenes (open door but not extremely explicit!)
I love that I'm this series the author has this far highlighted DV and the concerns around it - stigma, allow court proceedings, and more.
But at the end of the day, this is a delightful story about friends to lovers, (as slow burn as it can be in a novella!), finding yourself again, and the power of surrounding yourself with good people!
A rock n roll thank you to Ms. K.M. Ryan for the opportunity to read and review this wonderful short story!
All opinions are my own.

Spritz of Your Love is part of the multi-authored Rock & Spirits series. It's a short and steamy, instalove, OTT, stalker-lite, he falls first, girl gets her rockstar office romance. Miranda is a seamstress for a rock band. Ben is the hunky lead singer. He has loved Miranda from afar, but now that she is single, he sees his chance. Throw in her stalker ex and some other twists I didn't see coming and you have a great story. Ben steps in to keep Miranda safe and I was all for it. This couple had great chemistry and we got a happy ending after some minor angst.

From the 1st chapter, I was hooked! I needed to know what was going on with the Ex and that part of the storyline. This is also a friends-to-lovers and they have the cutest love story!! I kept going aww and was surprised and felt joy at how effortless their relationship, even with everything they had to go through. Highly recommend! 🥰

This was a fabulous read and very quick! I loved the continuation of this band. Ben and Miranda are absolutely the friends who had the flirty vibes. This one is awesome because he absolutely fell first and she noticed it AFTER her friends tell her to open her eyes.

From the first page, Spritz of Your Love felt like diving into the heart of a rock tour where music isn't the only thing heating up the stage. K.M. Ryan gifts us a romance that’s equal parts slow-burn tension, laugh-out-loud moments, and protective alpha energy, with a band-family dynamic that absolutely shines.
Miranda—the band’s trusted and talented seamstress—has been stitching their stage looks together for years, but somehow never realized that the lead singer, Ben, had been silently watching her from the wings, quietly falling harder every time she adjusted a hem. And when her sleazy, stalking ex refuses to take “no” for an answer, it’s Ben who steps in, not just as a friend or protector—but as something more.
And let me tell you—protective Ben is pure catnip. He’s not the typical rock star cliché. He’s thoughtful, respectful, and completely gone for Miranda. Once those feelings finally surface, the chemistry between them? Off. The. Charts. (There’s a steamy moment in a conference room that you will not forget. 🔥)
What makes this story so relatable and lovable is how funny and real the emotional beats are. The "big misunderstanding" between them is hands-down one of the funniest reasons I’ve ever read for a temporary breakup—I literally laughed out loud. But it’s also such a believable reflection of how we let fear or insecurity cloud the truth, even when the heart knows better.
Still, behind all the humor and heat, there’s genuine heart. Watching Miranda come to terms with the fear her ex caused—and seeing Ben really show up for her—made this more than just a rockstar romance. It’s about knowing your worth, accepting love, and finding the strength to choose something better than what you’ve had before.
Why You’ll Love This Book:
🎸 Rockstars with actual emotional depth
💕 A heroine who's strong, talented, and finally learning to let herself be loved
🛑 A stalker subplot that adds just enough suspense
🥰 Found family vibes with the whole band supporting Miranda
😆 A hilarious miscommunication that proves sometimes love makes us all a little ridiculous
Final Thoughts:
Spritz of Your Love is sweet, sexy, and just a little dangerous—in the best way. It’s the kind of romance that makes you want to fall in love with your best friend, confess your feelings backstage, and never look back. Ben and Miranda's story hits all the right notes, and by the end, you’ll be swooning, laughing, and maybe even texting your bestie, “OMG you HAVE to read this.”.

Miranda has been touring with Chaotic Notes for years, keeping their wardrobe in order while the guys are on the road. But after breaking up with her ex during their last tour, she returns home to an ex-boyfriend who simply can’t take no for an answer and won’t leave Miranda alone. I’ll admit, I struggled a bit with Miranda’s reluctance to confide in anyone. Her excuses for putting up with the harassment felt a little flimsy, especially as the tension kept ratcheting up. On the brighter side, we’ve got Ben, the band’s lead singer and the ultimate cinnamon roll hero. He’s carried a torch for Miranda forever, but he’s never wanted to be just a fling. Now that she’s single, fate finally gives him the chance he’s been waiting for. The way he discovers what she’s going through and instantly steps into protector mode had me swooning. Honestly, it’s such a reminder that sometimes the love we’ve been searching for has been right beside us all along. The chemistry between Ben and Miranda feels effortless, probably because their long history makes sliding into something more feel so natural. I adored the found-family vibe of the band too. Once they learn what’s happening, they rally around Miranda in such a heartwarming way. The stalker subplot gave the story a slightly darker edge, but at its core, this is still a sweet, friends-to-lovers romance that leaves you smiling. If I had one gripe, it would be the almost-breakup in the third act. Miscommunication isn’t my favorite trope, and the drama here felt avoidable. One quick, “Wait, what the hell is going on?” would have saved a lot of angst and confusion. Still, it didn’t take away from my overall enjoyment. In the end, this book delivers a tender, protective hero, a heroine learning to reclaim her strength, and a romance that feels both comforting and passionate. A happily-ever-after well worth the journey.

Aww Ben and Miranda were so dang adorable in this. Imaging loving someone for years and you seeing so much of them because they worked with you?
That'd what happens. Ben is in a band that's heating up the limelight and Miranda is queen of their wardrobe. Beyond that, they are also friends. Which makes Ben loving her so much cuter. Of course, Miranda was oblivious to this, but the moment that she did, their story changed, and the love bloomed. Not to mention how Ben helped her with her stalker ex. It’s just so sweet.
Don't miss this Rockstar romance because it’s not all lights and glamor here.

Ben has been in love with Miranda for several years. The problem is that she had a boyfriend. Now he's out of the picture, and Ben has nothing standing in his way to pursue Miranda. Miranda is completely unaware of Ben's feelings, but that's about to change. Her ex is now stalking her, and she's living in terror. Ben steps up for her and finally gets his chance. I love this story. It has the sweetest steam and a fantastic, happy ending. Excellent short read.

Ben and Miranda are such a cute couple. There is suspense in this quick read. The only reason I didn't give this one a 5 star was because the miscommunication trope isn't my favorite. If Miranda had taken a few minutes to talk to Ben she could have avoided feeling inadequate and questioning her choices. The upside of that is that Ben wouldn't let it go on for too long so they made up quickly. I love how Ben finally decided to step out of the friend zone!

I am forever thankful to be able to read K.M. Ryans books as an ARC reader.

Ben and Miranda - long time friends to lovers. Perfect, short and sweet story. We all need a Ben in our life <3

This short novella was a really wonderful short read. I read it in about 2 hours. The main female character is being stalked by her ex-boyfriend and her new boo, who she has been friends with forever, protects her.

This is the second book from this collection by this author that I've read and it was pretty good. So in this book you follow Ben as he finally gets his chance to be with Miranda, after pinning for her for years. Miranda is also dealing with a crazy jealous ex who keeps stalking her home and eventually escalates his behaviors, don't worry no one gets injured in this book.

This is the second book to Sweet Wine of Mine and I loved it. I could not put it down from the moment I started reading it, but life interfered. It had me laughing and anxious, and yelling at Miranda for overreacting, but all in all, I love the happy ending Ben and Miranda deserved. Y'all need to pick this one up asap. K.M. Ryan is one of the best authors I have read in a long time

I'm glad that Miranda finally realizes that Ben likes her and gives him the chance. During time spent together they both fall in love. I liked his proposal.

Rockstar Ben has loved the band’s wardrobe mistress for years. Miranda finds out his devotion when she is stalked. Good grief, Ben was such a swoony sweetheart! A bit of angst, danger, misunderstanding, band family, sizzling passion and one heck of a proposal for a HEA. Fun read!

4.5 stars! Absolutely love K.M’s novellas. Ben and Miranda’s story is just the right amount of spice, romance and suspense!

Ben has loved Miranda from afar for a long time but it’s not until her friends tell her that she notices and recognizes the feelings that she has herself. But first, she had to deal with her ex who is stalking her. The sparks between Ben and Miranda are great and the stalking subplot keeps you on the edge of your seat.
