Release Blitz, Exclusive Excerpt & Giveaway:
The Worst Bad Thing by J.E. Birk
He thinks I’m worth saving. He doesn’t know how wrong he is.
Some mistakes can never be redeemed.
I know that better than anyone. Last year I made the ultimate mistake—I cost someone their life. This trip I’m taking through Iceland, England, and France may look like the trip of a lifetime, but it’s not. This is a mission. I have to pay back the debts I owe the world.
Then I meet Gabriel Carrillo. Gabriel is kind, caring, and generous, and he seems to be on a mission of his own to make sure our paths keep crossing. Between sunrise swims in the Blue Lagoon and afternoon walks through Stonehenge, I find myself wanting to spend more and more time with him.
But Gabriel doesn’t know my secrets. He doesn’t know what I’m out to achieve.
He doesn’t know that my future is already set.
The Worst Bad Thing is a hurt/comfort romance set across three countries. It stars a former soldier and the mysterious man he falls in love with on a plane, and it features a HEA. Please see the Author’s Note for content warnings.

The invitation
“So,” he says as we sit down at a small table overlooking the Tower, “I was wondering if you’d like to go someplace with me tonight.”
“Where?”
He shifts in his seat a little uncomfortably. “Remember when we were walking this morning and you said you liked the Beatles?”
“Of course.” It wasn’t all that long ago.
“Well, I made some calls while you were in the bathroom at the Globe, and I scored us some tickets to the Beatles musical that’s still playing. Let it Be.”
I almost choke on my tea. “Are you kidding? You got me theater tickets? That must have cost a fortune.”
Gabriel shrugs. “To be honest with you, it wasn’t that big of a deal. Let it Be hasn’t been doing that well, so the tickets aren’t that expensive, and I know a guy who knows ticket brokers. He hooked me up. You wanna go? It’s at eight.”
Do I want to go? An amazing, gorgeous guy is sitting across from me, telling me he’s gotten us theater tickets to see a show he knew I’d love. For no reason other than he felt like it.
Well, that and maybe he’s hoping to get into my pants.
It’s on the tip of my tongue to say that I can’t accept the tickets. That I don’t deserve them. That this isn’t right. That this trip was never supposed to be about me in the first place.
But Gabriel has that look on his face—like a puppy that’s just brought you a newspaper and is waiting to be petted.
“Of course I want to go,” I say. “Of course.”
