Home Sweet Home

Burgers and Brew Crüe #6
Lacey Black

Leo


Everyone has a past they’re trying to outrun, myself included. My time in the military left me with scars, both physically and emotionally, which is why I keep to myself. Since returning home to Stewart Grove, I work a lot so I have little time to think. To remember. I’m just content to make it through the day.


Then I meet Kallie Carpenter.


I am drawn to the sexy bartender in a way I’ve never experienced, and despite knowing I should stay away, I can’t. Kallie calls to the very depths of my soul, every broken piece of it.


I hope I don’t destroy us both.


Kallie


Taking care of my injured dad and his horse ranch, as well as working at the local bar doesn’t leave me much time for a social life. Between home and Burgers and Brew, I keep myself plenty busy, despite my dad’s insistence I give dating another try. It’s not that I wouldn’t mind it, I just barely have any time to myself, let alone making room for another.


Then I find Leo Martinez sitting at the end of the bar.


He’s guarded and a little rough around the edges, but I can’t stay away. There’s a darkness in his eyes that speaks of pain, yet I only see the amazing man he tries to hide from the world.


I pray he lets me in.



My Thoughts:


If you love your romance novels with a good dose of swoon - then get ready for Lacey Black to hit you so hard that you end up with heart eyes on this one! All of the Burgers and Brew Crüe are some of my favorite characters, but the coupling of Kallie and Leo is absolute perfection! Their scars, backgrounds, and path to happiness is now ranking as one of my all-time favorites!


Kallie has such a big heart that loves with every inch. She makes you smile (even as the reader!) and feel like she could be your best friend. She wears a smile for the world, but underneath, she feels entirely too vulnerable and ends up closing herself off to love. But then Leo sits at the bar and her world tilts in a new direction. It helps break up the monotonous life she's destined herself for -- and what a beautiful new life it is! Her medical issues hit close to home


Leo is struggling with a heavy load. Not only does he suffer from PTSD, but he faces another loss that could completely shut him down. But his dark life begins to brighten when he meets Kallie and begins spending time with her. He's incredibly kind, caring, and most of all, deserving, of a woman like her.


I loved getting insight to how the other members of the Burgers and Brew Crüe are growing their families. All of those unique, fun personalities are still very vibrant and make this series a permanent shelf-keeper for me! I cried several times throughout and then happy tears even more so!


I received a complimentary ARC for reviewing purposes. All opinions are my own.
