Trey Christopher returns to Edna Falls, N.C. as a recovering prescription drug addict which was caused by the use of needed pain killers from an injury. With a reputation of a stud in school he was also discovered by the sports scouts and recruited into the pros. Following a serious injury, he comes home unable to play sports anymore and requiring physical therapy only to be pulled over by a jealous cop who attended school with him and has a grudge to fulfill. Needing to hire a housekeeper and personal assistant, Baylee Westring fits the bill. Trey doesn't remember she is the younger school girl whose virginity he would have taken if not for passing out from too much booze. Baylee knows he doesn't even remember her as she wasn't one of the popular girls and he didn't even know her. The flame she still holds for him makes her super cautious. Baylee believes it's too good to be true when she has her " first time" again with Trey and they end up in bed. She surprises Trey that he is, in fact, her first! Feelings are getting really serious until Baylee's brother is blackmailed by the cop into framing Trey, and Baylee who has refused his advances, with drugs to get "even" with them both. Convincing Baylee it was a setup and he hasn't lied to her about being rehabilitated, as well as his feelings for her, is not to be an easy task. This is book three in the Braddock Brotherhood series. Although the first I have had the pleasure of reading, I can assure you, certainly not the last. I thoroughly enjoyed this story which is filled with nostalgia and full of emotions. Barbara Meyers is a talented author composing a unique plot with equally unique characters. THE FIRST TIME AGAIN will leave you with a good warm feeling to see justice and vindication following for the lovers.

SUMMARY

Once Trey Christopher was the small-town golden boy. Now he’s just another burned-out, washed-up ex-quarterback with a bum knee, a tarnished reputation, and a simple wish. To be the kind of man he can face in the mirror. Moving back home is a start, as is hiring a down-on-her- luck local woman to help him out around his grandparents’ old homestead. The last thing Baylee Westring wants is to clean house for a high school crush who barely remembers her name, but Trey’s money will finally top off her get-out-of- Hendersonville-forever escape fund. Before she hits the road, though, Baylee’s got something for the man she still finds wildly attractive: the virginity he almost—but not quite—took during a drunken teenage party. Neither is prepared for the emotional impact of that encounter. But just when Baylee dares to believe in happy ever after, an old enemy turns up to even the score. And Trey finds his heart left in the red zone, with his last chance for love ticking down to zero.
