Trouble has always had a way of finding me, but being carjacked by a pretty girl in a wedding dress is one thing I never saw coming.

As the official family screw-up, not many people count on me for anything but a good time. But Maisy Romero and her little brother need a knight in shining armor, and they need him yesterday.

Clearly, I'm not that guy, especially since I've already got serious trouble chasing me down-the kind that just landed me in jail. The last thing this runaway bride needs is to tangle herself up with me and my mess.

But Maisy sees something greater in me that nobody else ever has-well, almost nobody-and she's determined to get me to see it too.

I should push her away for her own good. After all, there's a reason people don't count on me. But somehow I still find myself asking: Could I possibly be that knight after all-even if my armor is tarnished and dented?

Deja Brew All Over Again is a small-town rom-com that's part of a series but can also be enjoyed as a standalone steamy romance.

I loved this story, it was sweet yet sexy and with an air of trouble around every corner making it a book that was hard to put down. ~ Sharon – Simply Love Books

 

When you read a series, sometimes a character sticks out and you know there is more to them than meets the eye and that’s how I felt about Carter Brooks, the youngest son in this family. For two books we’ve seen him in and out of situations that apparently were the norm with him as the “family screw-up.” Yet, there was a depth to him that went largely unnoticed and in Deja Brew All Over Again, we get to see Carter shine in more ways than one. As the Brooks’ family deals with issues regarding the family bar/brewery that employs and keeps the three brothers able to help with the family finances, we see Carter show up, grow up, and not only prove himself to his family, but to a woman and her brother who need the help he and his family can provide. I loved this story, it was sweet yet sexy and with an air of trouble around every corner making it a book that was hard to put down.

Carter doesn’t know what to think when he picks up a woman dressed in a wedding gown running out of the courthouse with two dudes chasing after her, but all he does know is he needs to help her. Finding out Cassidy was planning to marry her best male friend in order to gain custody of her younger brother, Bear, who is in a bad living situation make Carter determined to help her even more.

There were so many layers to this book and I loved each and every one of them. The way Ginny, the matriarch of the Brooks’ family, took Cassidy and her brother Bear in and showed them what a real family was like was heartwarming. The continued attacks on the Brooks’ family add intrigue and Carter plans to find out if the man whose negligence killed is father is guilty of terrorizing them. Carter and Cassidy growing closer and the intense attraction between them added romance. Then there is Bear; that kid was the comic relief everyone needs in their life.

Deja Brew All Over Again was an amazing romance with a happily ever after in more ways than one.
