Blog Tour, Excerpt, & Giveaway for No Turning Back by Casey Peeler
No Turning Back (Full Circle #1) – YA/NA
Synopsis:
After getting involved with Dylan, the bad
boy of the Dixon High Swim team, Charley decides to stay close to home for
college. It’s just safer that way. Later, she realizes it’s a mistake, just
like dating Dylan. She decides to put the past behind her and leave the small
hick town of Grassy Pond. There is only one problem; she makes this decision
three weeks before the fall semester begins.
Charley packs up her Honda and heads to
Southern College. On the morning she’s about to leave, Cash walks back into her
life. He has been her best friend since they were four and is the only one who
knows the REAL Charley. She leaves her farm in Grassy Pond with all kinds of
“what if” questions.
Charley decides to live her college career to
the fullest. She finds a great group of friends, joins the swim team, and meets
a guy named Joe. He’s got eyes that make ya wanna melt!
At
college, she encounters a new problem. Charley has been away from home for only
forty-eight hours before she breaks the two promises she made to herself. Will
she be able to overcome her past? Find new love? What will happen with Cash now
that he is back in her life? Will she find what she is wanting in Jackalope
Joe? How will her first semester of college end? Joe, Cash, or alone?
EXCERPT:
“I know. I don’t
know what I’m going to do without y’all for a month!” Georgia exclaims.
“I could care less about exams. I’m just ready for Study Day!” Caroline squeals. Why the
hell is she so excited about Study Day?
You study all damn day! “It’s
only the biggest party day of the year at Southern. Y’all thought Homecoming was epic. Y’all aint seen nothing yet!”
“Explain.” Tori states.
“Well, undoubtedly on Wednesday at noon the campus goes
to quiet hours to study for exams. No
class, practice, or anything. Pretty
much people put off studying until Thursday afternoon, and spend Wednesday
partying like it’s 1999 or something!”
We all look at each other, and know that it’s legit
because somehow Caroline always is in the know.
Anna speaks up, “So, if Hank’s isn’t open, where does
everyone go?”
Caroline gets up and walks over to her wall and points to
the number eighty-eight sticker on the wall.
“That’s easy, Whiskey River!”
“What’s that got to do with racing?” Anna asks.
Georgia, Caroline, Tori and I look at each other like she has got to be
kidding.
“Anna, hunny, bless your heart,” I speak
compassionately. “Dale Jr. owns Whiskey
River.”
“Awwwwwww. I don’t
know anything about racing.”
“We know,” we all say in unison.
