Banner Spurlock
knew the moment that he walked into Kilgore High School and saw Perry Street
that life was about to get interesting.
Forced to move
due to a problem at home, a problem in the form of his ex-best friend hating
him for something that Banner’s father did, Banner doesn’t think very much
could improve in his life.
He left his
status as king of Benton High School behind and moved to a new school where not
only would he have to try out for a new football team and prove himself, but
he’d also have to find a place for himself in the hierarchy.
Only, the moment
that he arrives, he knows that finding a place for himself won’t be too hard.
Especially when his reputation follows him all the way to Kilgore, Texas.

Perry Street
hates school. She hates her peers—most of them anyway—and she hates her
classes. All she wants to do is finish her senior year, graduate, and find a
place that will give her a full scholarship so that she doesn’t have to be
stuck here forever.
That’s her goal,
anyway.
Then she walks
into first period, on her first day of her senior year, and sits down. Seconds
later, he walks in and changes every single plan she’s ever made.
It isn’t long
before Perry starts to fall for the bad boy who doesn’t care who he does and
doesn’t impress. The boy makes her heart flutter. The boy makes her want things
that she’s never wanted before. Not ever.
The boy brings
trouble with him that nearly kills her.
Ahhh, my heart.
I absolutely fell in love with Banner’s personality and way of life. He’s so
good natured. The kind of boy you want your daughter to end up with. Perry is
sassy and oh so perfect for Banner. It may take a bit to get there, but they
find their way to one another.
I do however,
have so many questions! I feel like a couple of things were left open-ended or
at least a “bit what happened with ....”. I have to tell myself that Lani will
answer those questions in other books. She always gives us what we want.
Somethin’ About That Boy was unexpected. A new adult romance and she nailed it!
I can only hope and pray that there will be more books to make it a series. I
just love these families!
I absolutely loved this story. Banner was a surprise for me but boy, he didn’t disappoint. To be so young and have such great head on your shoulders, where were these boys when I was in high school.
Banner had to switch schools his senior year because he was quite the troublemaker. It wasn’t his fault entirely, but he took the high road anyway. Being the new kid can be a hassle but since he is a star quarterback he fits in pretty well unless you are the one he is replacing on the team.
Perry has her close-knit group of friends but otherwise tries to stay away from people. She is a star athlete and pushes herself to maintain that status.
When Banner comes to town, he is instantly attracted to Perry, but she tries her hardest to ignore the pull he has on her. Will he succeed in cracking that hard exterior of Perry’s?
I loved how Banner was supposed to be this rough kid but in actuality he has passion. Passion for the game and passion for Perry. He also has a goal set after he graduates which how many seniors know exactly what they want to do with their lives? Perry has a plan too but will her plan coincide with Banners?
