About this listen

Carter Hayes was a soldier. A protector. Until the night he failed the one person who needed him most. Now, drowning in guilt and whiskey, he’s given one last chance to rebuild his shattered life at Valor Ridge, a place for veterans seeking redemption. But Carter isn’t looking for salvation—until he meets Maddie Sinclair.

Maddie has spent her career helping others, but Carter is different. Stubborn. Broken. And impossible to ignore. She knows he’s running from something, but what she doesn’t expect is how much she wants to help him stop. The more she pushes, the harder he resists, yet the spark between them refuses to fade.

As Carter struggles to face his past and Maddie fights to show him he’s worth saving, their attraction turns into something deeper—something neither of them are ready for. But when old wounds resurface and Carter’s darkest fears threaten to pull him under, he must decide: will he let the past define him forever, or will he fight for the future Maddie makes him believe in?

For fans of slow-burn romance, heartbreaking redemption arcs, and love stories that dig deep, Drowning in Pain is an emotional journey of healing, hope, and the courage to fight for a second chance.
