Excerpt
From the first
beat of the song, I begin to sing every dang word to her, and she begins to
laugh as I put on the bad boy front that everyone already believes. As verse
two starts, I move in closer to her, and when he references the bad toy in the
parking lot, I point to where my bike’s parked. She takes a step toward me, and
I hope and pray that her dad is not looking because it’s about to get hot in
here… quick. Chauna begins to sway her hips in rhythm with me and sing right
along with me. As the final chorus plays, she looks over her shoulder and
smiles as she turns to whisper into my ear.
“Walker, I wanna
bad boy,” she says with a slight laugh. When the song ends, we wait for the
next, and as I look toward the tables, I see Logan. It’s obvious he’s pissed,
which isn’t what I need because I really wanted to be his friend.
As Jackson’s
Wheel takes the stage again, we get a drink, and around eleven when the adults
begin to show, we decide to head out to our spot. Once we get there, we don’t
waste any time getting as close to each other as possible.
My hands find
her skin, and she begins to laugh. “What’s so funny?” I ask.
“Nothing, bad
boy,” she says.
“Oh, you want a
bad boy, huh?” I say roughly.
“Damn right, I
do.”

Synopsis
One twist of the lid changed everything…
The devil sat on my shoulder from my first breath, he watched my every move, and with the first strike of lightnin' I was pulled under.
Walking into Boondocks the voice of an angel called to me and I vowed to live a better life. She kept me on the righteous path until Satan called one last time.

Casey Peeler grew up in North Carolina and still lives there with her husband and daughter.
Growing up Casey wasn't an avid reader or writer, but after reading Their Eyes Were Watching God by Zora Neal Hurston during her senior year of high school, and multiple Nicholas Sparks' novels, she found a hidden love and appreciation for reading. That love ignited the passion for writing several years later, and her writing style combines real life scenarios with morals and values teenagers need in their daily lives.
When Casey isn't writing, you can find her near a body of water listening to country music with a cold beverage and a great book.
