Unholy Addiction

A GAY ROMANCE SHORT STORY 

Overcoming addiction hasn’t been a cakewalk, and finding self-worth after choosing the path that landed me at rock bottom?

Damn near impossible.

For me, sex and booze go together like PB&J, so staying clean means no hookups.

AA meetings help me stay the course…until a lip-glossed twink walks in and threatens my willpower.

Chase is a summer rainstorm, washing away the dust from a too-long drought. He makes me crave the things I’ve set behind me, causing a restlessness I recognize.

A new addiction.

However, giving in to my desire for Chase will land me back in the hole I crawled from, a place I know I won’t escape a second time.

And I’ll never forgive myself if I drag him down along with me.
