Sweet Agony

What happens when you fall in love with the wrong person who happens to be your best friend's older brother? A compelling story of love and friendship that will tug at your heartstrings. Sweet Agony is perfect for fans of Jennifer Hartmann, Paige Toon, Rebecca Yarros, and Mia Sheridan.

As a rule-following teenager, Dahlia Ellis never imagined that falling for the wrong person would set off a roller coaster of emotions and consequences. She should have stayed away from Jeff, her best friend's older brother, but she never couldn't resist him. Shattering her best friend's heart-the one person who has stood by her since childhood-left them both with scars that only time can heal. Jeff Hills never planned to fall for his brother's best friend, nor for the ensuing dilemma. Yet, despite the chaos in his life, their relationship is the only certainty he holds onto.

When Dahlia's life takes her across the globe and Jeff enlists, they must learn to navigate their new reality and relationship while living thousands of miles apart, and embrace the highs and lows of love, learning to listen to their hearts. What starts as a simple attraction turns into a whirlwind romance fueled by passion and secrets that could break them. Just when they think they have it all figured out, life throws an unexpected curveball that threatens to tear them apart for good.

Can their love withstand the trials and tribulations that come their way, and can Jeff and Dahlia survive the ordeals life throws at them?

Sweet Agony is a standalone novel and the first installment of the Whiskey Melody series and Dahlia Ellis's prequel story. It can be read by itself or before Cruel Destiny.
