Peter Parker Penn.

Unlike the superhero his mother named him after, Parker is no good guy.

In fact, if there’s a picture in the dictionary under anti-hero, it’s his.

Parker’s spent his life trying to get back on the right side of the tracks, but each step he takes forward, he takes two more steps back.

To save one, he hurts others. To make this good, he turns that bad.

For appearances’ sake, he plays the part. He does what people expect him to do—mostly. And at the end of each day, he goes back to his lonely apartment and wishes he was a different person. One who could fix the things he’s broken.

Then Kayla Nash forces her way into his life, and the world as he knows it is irrevocably changed.

Everything he thinks he has right is wrong. And everything he thinks is wrong is oh, so right.

One thing leads to another, and suddenly he’s growing a conscience, and trying to prove to her that he’s as bad as everybody says he is.

Yet she won’t listen.

She’s convinced that she can save him.

Little does she know, Parker isn’t worth saving, and never will be.

Lani has done it again!  This is another fantastic read.  This is the second book in the Simple Man series.  It can be read as a stand alone.  But, you’ll miss out on all the other great reads!

This is Kayla and Parker’s story.

We first met Kayla back in the Freebirds series.  She is Dougie’s daughter.  James helped raise her after Dougie’s death, along with all the other members of Free.  She’s also bestfriends with Janie.

Peter Parker Penn has always been a mystery, like Rafe and others.

I will warn you now.  You will be crying at the very start of the book, in the middle, and at the end.  Dougie’s letter.  OMG the tears were rolling down my face.

I do hope that Joshua gets a book in the baseball series that Lani has.  He deserves some happy after everything that he has gone through.

I loved these characters.  They are opposite.  Kayla has a fascination with holes.  The “glory hole” story was so damn funny.  She’s happy all the time.  She doesn’t always think before she speaks.  She will stand up for those she loves, and she shows it in this book.

I love Carmen, but my heart breaks for her also.

“Here, hold my morals.  I have some sketchy shit to do.” ~Parker, age 15

“When your boss asks what’s wrong, apparently ‘I need a nap and some dick’ isn’t the answer you should reply with.  Who knew?” ~text from Kayla to Janie

 

I’m a married mother of three. My kids are all under 9, so I can assure you that they are a handful. I’ve been with my paramedic husband now for ten years, and we’ve produced three offspring that are nothing like us. I live in the greatest state in the world, Texas.
