The Barman and the SEAL by R.J. Scott

Ellery Mountain: Ellery Mountain—a series of books set in the town of Ellery in the Smoky Mountains and based around the Ellery Mountain Fridays. Finn, Daniel and Kieran meet up every Friday and have something in common—they are all navigating the barren landscape of being gay in a small town. These are the stories of Finn the cop, Daniel the ex-marine, and Kieran who hasn’t quite settled on anything in particular and the men who come into their lives in the strangest ways.

The Barman and the SEAL by RJ Scott Book Six in the Ellery Mountain series.

A Navy SEAL with PTSD, a Barman starting a new life. Maybe they can find love in Ellery.

Travis Baranski, Navy SEAL, is the first veteran to attend the Ellery Mountain Veteran’s Center. He is having a hard time coming to terms with what he had seen and what he has done. When he has a very public meltdown in Ellery’s store, it is Avery Gideon who steps up to the plate and helps him.

Avery Gideon, a man cut off from his family for being gay, runs the only bar in town—The Alibi—and listens to many a person's problems whilst trying to forget his own. He sees something in the wounded warrior who needs a friend and very soon finds himself falling in love with Travis.

Nothing will deter him from helping Travis, or from making Travis see he's still capable of loving Avery in return.
