Hayden Scott and Everett Teal have been best friends for forever but one weekend changes everything.
Everett is kind but also gruff, gorgeous, and sure knows how to get more than a motor running at the garage.
He’s all the things Hayden can never have because Everett Teal is straight and lusting after your best friend is a definite no. There’s no way Everett is staring a little too long or purposely brushing hands, right?
However, a breathless kiss in the middle of a coworker’s wedding takes all bets off the table. And Everett Teal isn’t just playing around, he’s playing for keeps.
What to Expect:
✨Best Friends to Lovers
✨Forced Proximity
✨Only One Bed
✨Low Angst
✨No Third Act Break Up
✨Standalone MM Novella
Y'all this was so sweet! Hayden and Everett already have a beautiful friendship when the story starts and to see it blossom into this sweet and steamy relationship was 🔥
This standalone novella in Alexandra Hale's Clementine Creek series is a quick read with lovable characters.
Even though it is a standalone, I do think this could have been a five star read for me if I had read the other books first. I only say this because there are quite a few side characters, such as the Thayor boys at the garage Everett works, that I felt I was suppose to know or be more familiar with to fully appreciate their antics. With how much I adored the brief glimpse of Hayden and Everett's world I definitely plan on reading through the series and revisiting ♥️
And I wouldn't say no to a book about a house in the woods 😉
Out in the Country (as well as the other three Clementine Creek books) available on KU and paperback now!
Check it out for a fluffy, sweet, and steamy read!
