Release Day Blitz for Everett by Casey Peeler





























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 by Gia:

I liked this one.  The Drake boys have a reputation for being bad boys but they are really nice guys.  Everett is back in town after being medically discharged from the military.   We don't really know what he has right away.   I didn't like the way his illness was portrayed.    I struggled with this one after finding out what he had.   I had to decide if the way it was dealt with ruined the whole story for me but after much thought I was able to see that Everett and  Stella's story itself overcomes any faults that I found with Everett's illness.   Stella is looking for a second chance and to start over.   Everett is the delivery man for a local beer company and Stella is the new owner of a bar.   Their paths cross and there is an instant connection and chemistry.  This one is a short quick read so things between Everett and Stella move pretty quickly.   I would have loved to read more of about them.
4 Amazeballs Stars! 


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.
