Perfect for you if...

  • You love second-chance romances where the hero has real baggage and has to earn redemption, not just get handed a happy ending.
  • You're drawn to single-parent protagonists who are competent and protective but also allowed to be vulnerable and need someone.
  • You enjoy small-town settings where everyone knows everyone's business and wounded-hero tropes feel grounded in genuine trauma rather than just brooding.

Maybe not for you if...

  • You prefer romances where the couple starts on equal footing; the age gap and power imbalance here (older man, younger woman, her brother's best friend) won't appeal if you find that dynamic uncomfortable.
  • You're looking for lighter fare; this book deals seriously with addiction recovery and PTSD, not just surface-level angst.
  • You want plot-driven narratives; this is character-focused and slow-burn, so if you need external conflict and high stakes, this domestic romance might feel too quiet.

About this book

Abby Campbell is a curvy single mom in the small town of Whiskey Run. She's off limits—the little sister of his best friend. But when a wounded ex-mercenary and former addict moves to her hometown for a job at a top rehab center for wounded heroes, their connection deepens. Years ago, Abby's kind presence helped pull him out of a dark place of pain and addiction. Now he's moved to be near her and her daughter, though he struggles with doubt. He fears he may have simply traded one addiction for another, and worries he won't be the man she truly needs. Sweet Addiction is part of the Whiskey Men: Wounded Heroes series, which follows a group of wounded ex-mercenaries as they navigate their personal battles with the support of the women they love. This book features a brother's best friend romance with an age gap and small town setting. Each book in the series can be read independently.
