About this listen

They say the best way to get over someone is to get under someone else. They say the best way to stay sober is to love yourself.

I'm great at making bad decisions. Addict? Check. Poor impulse control? Check. Obsessed with the guy I'm sponsoring? Check. Check. Check.

There's no one worse for me to want in my bed than Jake Tully. He's hot and grumpy and literally a terrible idea. Terrible. Worse, no one has ever made me feel the way he does—valued. But here I am, thinking about him again. Falling for my sponsor is not my worst idea yet, but it's damn close.

Felix Fields is everything good. He's thoughtful and kind. I can't help but think about every bad thing we could do between these sheets. But we can't be together. I'm not willing to risk my recovery for anyone—even if he might be perfect for me.

Finding a love like this is nothing short of a tragedy.

From New York Times bestselling author J. Daniels comes an all-new, sexy standalone romance. This book ends in a Happily Ever After, but getting there isn't easy.

Loved this and cried often. The struggles of addicts, the intensity of discovery and love kept me reading. Two wonderful characters and Felix, just loved him. Loved his eccentricity and the way his character was written was just perfect. This story just spoke to me.

The subject matter is very heavy (addiction and childhood neglect) but it’s handled so beautifully and hilariously through Felix and Jake’s flirty texts, dialogue and inner monologues. The writing is brilliant and the narrators are perfect 👌🏼

The side characters are also excellent - Jake’s brother and sister in law, CJ & Riley, and his work colleagues.

Well worth the read/listen. This one will stay with you for a long time ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This is such a beautiful story ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Absolutely loved it! Felix is definitely one of my all time favourite broken boys. Such a lovable character and their relationship is intensely beautiful. It’s not all sunshine and donuts though, these two are recovering drug addicts and there are a lot of serious moments throughout. Well written and the narration was perfect

Just beautiful!

I have seen many positive recommendations for this on TikTok, but I struggled to get through it. I felt it was too long and drawn out.

Not a favourite
