"You are not a reflection of the shit that’s been done to you. You don’t have to carry it or live inside it anymore.”
Wonderful slowburn omegaverse (no shifter) romance with a dark backstory.
Poor Silas, his life has been hell and it's no wonder he doesn't trust anyone, or even himself. The way Bear showed and encouraged Silas that he was strong and free and brave by being there for him in whatever capacity Silas allowed was beautiful. This man was so broken and it felt so incredible to see him start to find himself and come to trust in Bear.
And god, Bear? My darling Alpha boo. So good, so decent, so right for Silas. Him always allowing Silas to take the lead regardless of how his instincts were to throw himself at Silas, and how his need to protect this stranger was so overwhelming hit me hard.
The angst was on point, I was so upset and scared at times, and man, the slowburn romance was beautiful. Silas and Bear were just perfect for each other!! The book itself was a bit too long imo, but I still had a great time with it.

My expectations were absolutely below away. And they were low.
I love a good Omegaverse, however, they tend to follow a formula that sullies the cliche of the genre because it becomes overly predictable. Whiskey & Sin is an omegaverse story that uses it as a plot device to drive actual character development and build memorable characters.
I should mention that this is a Dual POV story and it tells it perfectly. The mutual pining is

Silas and Bear
Silas and Bear were awesome! Bear is the type of alpha I love and Silas is the omega I hope every omega could be. These two together while rocket at first learned to trust one another and lean on each other as they both healed. This story was about surviving and opening yourself to love.
