Everett Drake left the small town life and his three brothers behind the day he was old enough to enlist. However, he returned sooner than he had planned with a chip on his shoulder.
Taking a job with the local beer distributor, he makes a living, but when a new bar owner arrives in town, he knows exactly what he wants—Stella.

Pulling into Barger’s, the sun is shining and so is Seth’s brand new Camaro. Shaking my head, I put the Dodge in park and step toward my future as a beer truck comes barreling out the back entrance, almost running me over. Turning to see who’s driving, I put my hands on my hips and see dark hair and a set of emerald green eyes on the sexiest man I’ve ever seen and when he smiles my way, I try to act mad but it’s no use. Mental note—stay away from whoever that is.
“Sorry about that, ma’am,” he hollers out the window.
“Damn right, you better be,” I say firmly as he laughs, gives a wave and takes off down the two-lane road.

REVIEW:
| "There's something about him. It's almost as if the more I try to resist him, the more I can't." ~Stella "She's going to be min, even if she doesn't know it yet." ~Everett This book was short, sweet, sexy, and sassy all wrapped in one great package! I think I'm going to like these Drake brothers...Just saying;) Stella is ready to start her life over, so she goes back to the town she's always loved from her childhood. But one thing is completely different. This time when she arrives, she runs into (almost literally) the hottest guy she's ever seen. Enter Everett Drake. Lawd have mercy! He's quite a man, I tell you. After being discharged from the military, this once bad boy in town is now back to get his life in order. It just so happens that one certain woman might be what he needs. "I can't do this meaningless game we've been playing. I want more. I want you." This story was fast paced and full of character. In true Casey Peeler form, she makes us fall in love with small towns and country boys with just a few pages. I enjoyed this story so much and I can't wait for more Drake brothers because, as I said, there's just something about those southern gentleman;) Well done, Casey! "There no way in hell I can live without you." |
Casey Peeler grew up in North Carolina and still lives there with her husband and daughter.
Growing up Casey wasn't an avid reader or writer, but after reading Their Eyes Were Watching God by Zora Neal Hurston during her senior year of high school, and multiple Nicholas Sparks' novels, she found a hidden love and appreciation for reading. That love ignited the passion for writing several years later, and her writing style combines real life scenarios with morals and values teenagers need in their daily lives.
When Casey isn't writing, you can find her near a body of water listening to country music with a cold beverage and a great book.
