The Barkeep and the Bro by A.J. Truman
5.0
I love A.J. Truman and his Single Dads Club series. Maybe it’s the former bartender in me, but this might just be my favorite in the series. It’s a fantastic age-gap, grumpy/sunshine that’s full of wit and charm. I laughed out loud more than a few times. This might be my first daughter’s ex-boyfriend trope as well!
Mitch owns Stone’s Throw Tavern, the local bar in Sourwood. He’s married to his job and prefers it that way, even if he does get a little lonely at times. Mitch is a great guy to have in your corner. He’s thoughtful, loyal, and dependable.
Charlie is the man, as he repeatedly tells himself in the mirror each morning. He falls on hard times after losing his job and girlfriend. He leaves Manhattan for Sourwood, where an old summer camp buddy lets him move in with him. I really enjoyed how Truman set everything up for his next series with the introduction of Amos and his crew. Amos tells Charlie about Mitch needing a bartender, so Charlie embarks on learning a new trade. Charlie has charm in spades.
Mitch tries to resist his attraction to Charlie at first for a host of reasons, but when the two come together it’s super hot. I appreciated how Ellie had her dad’s back once she got over the initial shock of Mitch and Charlie being together. This was a great installment in the SDC series!
