Blow by Heidi McLaughlin is the first book in her new Virtuous Paradox series. This book was intense. It wasn't dark - not at all - even though it did touch on the darkness of drug addiction. It was well-paced and quite uplifting. 
 Bodhi has his issues but is self-contained enough to not fight his intervention too hard. When he finally is sober in rehab his thought process over his well-being and recovery is quite simple and clear. The connection between him and Kimberly was visceral. I really felt their bond AND their dilemma. 
 I'm getting too close to spoiler territory at this point but this was a refreshing take on addiction that focused less on the drugs and the issues and way more on the recovery and the life after rehab.
