Whiskey Romance with the Seattle Women Who Whiskey: A Rumors & Whiskey Launch Celebration
Come celebrate the opening of a sultry new sanctuary for readers, Cara Mia Books & Coffee.
Join us at Cara Mia to enjoy a handcrafted cocktail, a guided tasting flight, and light bites from Copper Cat Distillery. Attendees will get a first peek behind the curtain at this space curated for readers who crave stories with shadow, spice, and romance.
This will be Cara Mia’s very first event, and we’re dedicating the afternoon to celebrating Victoria Wilder’s hotly anticipated debut in The Whiskey Women series: Rumors & Whiskey — a scorching, suspenseful contemporary romance steeped in secrets, second chances, and the kind of love that burns hotter than a barrel‑strength pour. Set in Rumor, Tennessee, where the Crowne women stand at the center of every whispered scandal, it’s the perfect pairing for our sisterhood that knows its way around a glass.
Every guest will head home with their own special edition copy of Rumors & Whiskey to savor long after the event ends.
June 20th, from 2 - 4pm
Tickets: $53.59

The Cara Mia Society
Because, Beloved, you are literally the heart of everything we do. The Society is our way of rewarding the readers who keep coming back for one more chapter - and a book to take home. It’s free to join. The only currency that matters is your devotion.
Dark shelves. Strong espresso. Sinful desserts.
Espresso bold enough to keep you up for one more chapter, tea for the reader who savors every slow-burning page, and desserts sinful enough to make "just one more bite" feel as dangerous as "just one more chapter." We didn't come here to be reasonable — and neither did you.
