Can the past be rewritten? Huck has come back to Mustang Mountain after being forced away years ago. Peyton is the biggest regret he carries in his heart. I enjoyed watching the two of them dance around each other until some forced proximity gave them time to speak truths. Huck’s willingness to step up for Peyton proved his true heart. I love my visits to the Mustang Mountain community. I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

Huck has returned to Mustang Mountain after being away for years and has started his own business flipping houses and such. He sometimes works with his buddy Levi. The Festival is coming up and he was putting in a bid on it but he is late and then he sees someone he hasn’t seen in years and hadn’t expected- Peyton. When Peyton & Huck were teens they dated (& more) but in secret, because Peyton’s father hated Huck’s family. Why we learn about later on in the book. We get to see Orville acting in his Mayoral ways and Ruby as well. Huck lost everything when he was forced out of town- you’ll see what. Peyton is going nuts trying to get everything done on time. She chose the contract bid of her father’s ‘chosen’ for the Festival repairs. It is a good thing that Huck took a peek at it because it was sooooo not done to code. I was livid and wanted to pretty much scream rant at Mr. Franklin for how poor a job he did and then some! Egads. I still don’t understand how he did what he did and Peyton’s father… well, he is not a nice man. I love seeing the girls with Peyton, they are so great. I’d like a book with just a Girl’s Night story, lol. With the guys picking them up afterwards. lol. Oh the trouble, they could get into- both sides. lol. I have always loved Ruby, but, in this book, I honestly think she is the most heartfelt and some of the stuff she says to Huck made me want to cry it was so beautiful. I laughed, cried, giggled, chewed on my nails, and ranted out loud. Once Peyton & Huck actually talked about what truly happened they realized a big thing- that they were meant for each other- it was very romantic and steamy. I love Mustang Mountain and most of the people there. The sense of community is just so strong and I miss Hades. He only got a quick cameo. That wolf says so much with just body language. I can’t wait to see what happens next.

We are still in for a ride in the Bad Boys of Mustang Mountain.
Huck has moved back to his small hometown, but learned real quick some people never grow and let the past go. He didn't expect to run into the love of his life, Peyton. She is a real estate agent, and super powers of running things in town, and working on the town celebration. He missed his opportunity to bid on a job that would establish his new business in town. No one cared he stopped to help someone broken down and thats why he was late.
I watch as these two try to coexist around each other and fail badly at it. Neither has been able to get over Huck leaving town and never coming back. Its hard to read how controlled Peyton is by her father, yet not as straight forward as people think.
When a shady contractor under bids and wins, it comes out real quick he is one to cut corners, and not keep the safety of things in mind. Huck can't ignore the shortcuts he's trying to make, and sees how the town fair is going to become a danger zone.
I love they get trapped in a shed while both at the job site for different reasons and they FINALLY get to talk about the past. They have lived so many years beleiveing things that weren't true when Huck left town, and how that hurt never left either of them. That sometimes there is love out there that withstands time, hurt, distance, and circumstance. It felt so natural watching them finally get the truth out, and realize they are still very much in love.
Also, you can't miss the wonder that is Mustang Mountain. When tragedy strikes, and most hope is lost.....The town shows up. Huck rally's everyone and gets the celebration rebuild, better than ever. This is a small mountain town that takes care of its own, and shows up when your neighbor needs help. A great HEA...that felt was just on pause, never over.

**Second Chance at Love**
*June’s Bad Boy - Huck* is the sixth book in the *Bad Boy of Mustang Mountain* series, and it’s a real treat! In this story, Huck returns to his hometown after being forced out 15 years ago for a crime he didn’t commit. Since then, he’s been making a name for himself as a general contractor and is excited to submit a bid for the town festival.
Peyton is caught off guard when she sees Huck at the town hall, especially since he turns in his bid a bit late. Unfortunately, she can’t accept it and chooses to go with the contractor her dad prefers instead. This unexpected reunion stirs up old feelings for both of them, reminding them of their secret high school romance that ended in heartbreak when Huck left town.
Things get a little tense when Huck overhears the other contractor's reckless plans, which could put the townspeople in danger and create trouble for Peyton. He takes it upon himself to quietly fix the issues, but when Peyton finds out, she confronts him. This leads to an important conversation in which they finally address their past and all the secrets that have been hanging over them.
This series has been such a joy to read, and this book is another wonderful addition to it, complete with a happy ending! It beautifully portrays a couple navigating their way through heartbreak and love, along with the family drama that can sometimes get in the way. With a second-chance romance and some spicy moments, it’s a fast-paced read that you can easily finish in one sitting. I can’t wait to see what next month’s bad boy has in store!

Rekindling A Long Lost Love -
Seeing Huck again brought back all of Peyton’s heartbreak from their past, but it also reignited her old feelings every time she was around him. Huck had not gotten over the incident that led to him being forced to leave town and the part Peyton played in it, so his anger intensified after their interaction at the town hall meeting. However, everything changed when Huck overheard a conversation where an individual’s carelessness would have caused a major incident for the townspeople and also implicated Peyton.
Huck’s conscience didn’t allow him to sit back and let the disaster happen, so he decided to rectify the problem quietly. However, Peyton discovered his secret and it led to a confrontation where they finally discovered some inconsistencies in the reason why they broke up years ago. Luckily, Huck and Peyton managed to rekindle their relationship and work together, so they could not only successfully complete the festival, but also have a chance at having the life they were previously deprived of living.
I really enjoyed reading this spellbinding romance story with relatable characters and a small town vibe. The tension and sparks between this duo was electric, but more importantly, the storyline had the perfect balance between angst, romance and steam. This book was so good that I stayed up way past my bedtime (current 04:30), just because I had to finish reading it. Grab a copy of this book now and you won’t be disappointed.

They're not letting go this time!
Huck Barrett and Peyton Winslow had secretly dated while in high school. For some reason, her father always has something against Huck's family, especially his father. When he accused Huck of a crime, Peyton knew Huck was innocent, but she was too afraid of her father to speak up for Huck. Mr. Winslow even made certain that Huck lost his college baseball scholarship, too. So, Huck left Mustang Mountain and Peyton fifteen years ago.
It's finally time to return to Mustang Mountain, the only place that has ever felt like home to him. As an added bonus, Peyton is still there, and she's even more beautiful than ever. She is now a real estate agent in town.
Peyton was "voluntold" she'd be chairing this year's 150th Founders Festival. Only the area for the festival needs a lot of work to be done before the festival can be held. Huck's bid was late, so she didn't allow him to enter his bid. She accepted the bid of a contractor her father recommended, but it turns out he cuts corners and does shoddy work. She needs help; she needs Huck, despite the chaos that seems to accompany him.
As usual in Mustang Mountain, when there's a community crisis, Ruby and Orville from the Mercantile are able to rally the entire community's aid to save the day.

She thought he left without a word. He thought she never believed in him.
Fifteen years ago, Huck (H) disappeared from Mustang Mountain with a bad reputation and a broken future. Now he's back, trying to rebuild his life and stay out of trouble. But when he walks into a town meeting and sees Peyton (h), the girl who once meant everything, he realizes nothing about coming home will be simple.
Peyton has spent years proving herself in a town where everyone remembers your worst day. Running the Founders Festival is her shot at showing she's more than her last name. So when Huck shows up late with a bid and a storm of old feelings, she shuts him out fast. But unfinished doesn’t mean forgotten.
As construction issues mount and hidden truths come to light, Huck quietly steps in to fix what others won’t. Not for credit. Not for attention. Just because it needs to be done. When the two get trapped during a storm, what started as anger and distance turns into something they can’t ignore anymore.
It’s not about starting over. It’s about finding out what was real all along.
Both Huck and Peyton grow from people shaped by silence and regret into two who finally confront what tore them apart. He sheds the bad boy label by choosing action over resentment. She learns to trust her own voice, not the one she was raised to follow.
A steamy second chance, small town romance, exploring love, loyalty, past mistakes, forgiveness, and the cost of staying silent too long.

Mustang Mountain is celebrating the 150th Founders Festival and it is falling apart. Peyton Winslow has lived here all of her life and is a real estate agent. She got stuck being in charge of the festival. The committee awarded the construction contract to Mr. Franklin, who is a friend of Peyton’s father. Mr. Franklin also offered to help Peyton with a quick fix for a house that she is trying to sell.
Huck Barrett came back to town and has been working with his friend Levi doing construction. They have been flipping houses and cabins in the area. Levi had told Peyton that the house that she is trying to sell needs a whole new foundation. Huck is surprised when he is at the supply store and hears Mr. Franklin talking about his quick fix for the house.
Huck has a bad feeling about Mr. Franklin, so he goes to check the work being done for the festival. He is not impressed and worried about the shoddy work. Fifteen years ago, Huck left town and broke Peyton’s heart. He knows he has no right to get involved with Peyton or her life now. However, he knows he has to do the right thing, so no one gets hurt at the festival.
I felt bad for Huck because it is obvious that Peyton does not know the whole story about why he left. I felt bad for Peyton because she was stuck heading the festival and there were non-stop problems. I really wanted the two of the them to talk about what was clearly a misunderstanding fifteen years ago.

Truth and Love
June's Bad Boy - Huck is the sixth book in the Bad Boys of Mustang Mountain series. I loved this second chance romance between Peyton Winslow and Huck Barrett. They had a secret relationship in high school that ended badly when he was accused of a crime and she did not stand up for him. Peyton comes from a rich ranching family with a father who is controlling and has a lot of power in the town. Huck came from the wrong side of the town and was a "bad boy" with a soft and gooey heart. Huck had played baseball and had a scholarship which was lost when Peyton's father made a deal that saw him leaving town and never coming back. Well he has returned after being gone for fifteen years, moving where the jobs are. He wants to put down roots and Mustang Mountain is the only place he feels he can do that. Coming home has meant facing his past and he that will mean facing Peyton, even if he is not ready for it. Peyton has stayed on Rugged Mountain and is now a real estate agent in town. But no matter how old she gets it seems her father is still pulling her strings and telling her what to do, which she does not fight. But when Huck appears again her world is about to get blown up in ways she never expected when some hard truth and old secrets are finally revealed to all.

June’s Bad Boy - Huck by Eve London⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Small town charm, sizzling second chances, and a bad boy with a heart of gold—June’s Bad Boy - Huck is a swoony, feel-good romance that delivers every ounce of heart and heat you could want!
Peyton is a heroine you root for from the start—organized, passionate, and still a little wounded by the boy who got away. She’s not looking for drama, especially with the town’s Founders Festival hanging by a thread. But when the only person who can help is Huck, the man who shattered her heart years ago, sparks fly in all the best ways.
Huck is everything you want in a reformed bad boy: rugged, charming, full of regret, and determined to prove he’s changed. I loved how deeply he feels—his quiet need to make amends, his fierce loyalty, and the way he slowly peels back the layers to show Peyton just how much she still means to him.
Their chemistry? Off the charts. The banter, the tension, the longing—all of it builds to a payoff that’s both sweet and scorching. And the backdrop of a crumbling festival gives just enough chaos to keep things moving while their romance reignites.

Ran out of Mustang Mountain years ago by Peyton's father, Huck Barrett had decided it was time to return home. But the last thing he expected was to see his ex, Peyton Winslow on the festival committee, and he was late getting to the meeting, so he could not present his bids. Peyton was a daddy's girl pretty much doing whatever he told her to do. She believed everything he told her without question. It was surprising that she had actually moved out on her own. Huck was a wanderer moving wherever the construction jobs were at the time, but he was ready to put down roots hints the move home to Mustang Mountain. When he saw Peyton at that meeting, he realized that all the time away had not changed his feelings for her. She was glad their exchange such a short time as any longer, and she would not have been able to hold it together with all her old emotions roaring back. Everywhere they went, they ran into each other. An engaging story of intrigue and romance from the beginning to the very end.

Second Chance/Oppositea Attract/Old Flames/Small Town. This story takes place in Mustang Mountain. Peyton and Huck dated back in the day til he left. Wait til you find out why and the story behind it! Who was behind it was also very shocking also. Remember this, Peyton and Huck kept their relationship a secret. She was the golden girl and he was the bad boy.
Huck is back. It’s time for the 150th Founders Festival. Huck is helping his friend Levi flip houses and Peyton is in real estate. She’s head of the festival. He’s trying to be the contractor for it. Peyton picks someone her father wanted. Will that be for the best? She may want to really think about that idea. Huck is definitely suspicious of things when they just don’t look right at the festival site. He’s out there one night trying his best to fix things when Peyton catches him. Let’s put it this way we have a shed, them getting locked in and a kiss that may change how Peyton and Huck’s second chance begins again. Wait til you find out how these former lovers possibly rekindle not only their love for each other but come together to make the festival the best ever.

There was so much animosity between Huck and Peyton when this story began I wondered how, or if, they'd ever work through it all. It took courage for him to return to town after being essentially run off as a young man (basically still a kid). Honestly I didn't like Payton much, she was a mouthpiece and a cog for her father - clearly, yet compliant. It drove me nuts!! She got hooked into running the festival, and even though Huck was bullied out of participating he couldn't stomach the idea that people could be hurt. Do you put your feelings (and there are plenty) aside and do what's right, just because, or do you let people face the consequences of their actions, all of them, even if it results in injury to the innocent? This story tackles that issue head on with a powerful enemies to lovers second chance romance where the underdog clearly is more than he appears. Oh, and by the end, I cab say I begrudgingly gave Payton an approving nod... she's learning.😉

This book is a satisfying second-chance romance full of emotion, small-town secrets, and the slow unraveling of a deeper mystery.
Huck and Peyton were each other’s everything once, until a crime—possibly orchestrated by her father—tore them apart. Huck left town in disgrace, and Peyton was left with half the truth. Now, years later, he’s back to rebuild what he lost. Peyton, however, isn’t ready to trust so easily.
I struggled with Peyton at the beginning—her quick judgment and cold demeanor toward Huck felt harsh. But she redeemed herself, and watching their relationship grow again felt earned and heartfelt. Their chemistry and history add real depth to the story.
As always, there’s another piece to the Mustang Mountain mystery to keep readers hooked. Eve London delivers another great read with the right mix of heart, steam, and intrigue.

June’s Bad Boy - Huck is filled with tension, past hurts, drama, and deception. Huck is a good man who got a raw deal years ago, and he is determined to overcome. I adore how he lets his actions speak for themselves and that he authentic and honest and direct in his communication. Peyton has a huge chip on her shoulder and blindly believes everything her father tells her. She also has a heart of gold and is someone everyone can count on to follow up and follow through. Her go getter attitude is both adorable and admirable. The villain in this novella is really nasty, and watching how others interact with him is fascinating. As always, Ruby’s cameos are so much fun. The plot and development are engaging, and I love the ending! And the epilogue? After that teaser, I am so excited for what comes next!

Six books in and this is my favorite. I loved Huck and Peyton’s history and that this was a second chance romance. Back then he was the towns bad boy with a good heart and got screwed over by Peyton’s dad. Peyton was, and still is, the good girl who always listens to her dad and didn’t make the right decision all those years ago. Now fifteen years later he’s back and isn’t the same guy he was, but one thing that hasn’t changed- he still loves his girl!
This was a really good book with just enough spice and a little bit of drama to balance everything out and make the book perfect! I was kinda looking forward to seeing her dad get put in his place by not only Peyton, but Huck too. But all in all, great read and I can’t wait to read Blaze and Grace’s story next!

June’s Bad Boy Huck by Eve London is book 6 in the Bad Boys of Mustang Mountain series that also includes Kaci Rose, sure do love these alpha boys!
Huck has returned to Mustang Mountain after years away, started his own construction company and hopes to win the bid for the Festival. He’s late getting to the meeting and therefore the person in charge will not accept his bid, that person is none other than Peyton, who he dated secretly in high school. What happens next is tensions running high, secrets unfolding, family vs family, shoddy workmanship from the winning bid that Huck needs to fix so no one gets hurt, some laughs, and hoping Huck and Peyton find their way back to each other…

i read this book as part of an arc program. This is the second chance love story between Peyton ad Huck. Huck left town 15 years earlier and has returned in time to help with the Founders Festival as a carpenter. Peyton is a real estate agent and is in charge of the festival, she doesn't want to work with Huck, but no one else is available to help. Huck broke her heart years ago and she is still has feelings for him, even though she doesn't want to. Huck knows he messed up with Peyton, and he is determined to make things right and win her back. i liked this second chance romance. Huck matured in the years he was gone and i think he needed to grow up. I really love Eve's books, this was another good one.

June's Bad Boy - Huck is a fantastic addition to the Bad Boys of Mustang Mountain series. This second chance, opposites attract, mountain man short read romance was such a good story. I loved Peyton and Huck and that even after many years, they still had a strong connection. The twists and turns and path that they had to travel to reach their second chance was both entertaining and engaging. The depth of the characters is compelling and the story is well written, making this story a recommended read.

Huck never thought he would return to Mustang Mountain and certainly not to run into Peyton so soon. He never expected the old feelings to surface. She did not back him up when it mattered, would that change or would history repeat itself?
He broke her heart when he left, now ever since the meeting he seems to be everywhere. When it seems like someone is sabotaging the festival, it seems like only Huck ha her back. Has she ever stopped loving him?
This is a steamy read, loved the interaction between the characters looking forward Blaze's story.

Huck might be titled as this month's bad boy, but he is anything but. He left town under a cloud several years ago, under duress and now returned as a hard working, pleasant, confident man. Working construction and dealing with Peyton has its costs because of a conflict over a contract. Also over their previous, hidden relationship and permanent emotions and feelings. She needs to see what is in front of her and face her true feelings. Honesty proves to be the right thing, plus a night locked in a shed.
