Cigar in bed interrupted by brave man (7)
I believe the answer is:
cheroot
'cigar' is the definition.
(cheroot is a kind of cigar)
'bed interrupted by brave man' is the wordplay.
'bed' becomes 'cot' (cot is a kind of bed).
'interrupted by' indicates putting letters inside.
'brave man' becomes 'hero' (I've seen this before).
'cot' placed around 'hero' is 'CHEROOT'.
'in' is the link.
(Other definitions for cheroot that I've seen before include "Cigar with ends squarely removed" , "Cigar cut at both ends" , "Havana?" , "Type of cigar" , "Small cigar" .)
