Publisher's summary

Divorced for two years, August Reynolds needs a change. He and his teenage son, Reese, pack up and move to Briar County, the home August left at 14. He’s hoping it’ll help him and Reese connect again, that Reese will come into his own there the way August did. For him, it was all because of Clint Jones, his childhood best friend and first crush.

At 42, Clint figures he’s probably never going to find the one. He’s dated on and off, but he’s never fallen in love. He has his business, his dogs, his friends and family. Most of the time, that’s enough, but then August moves home—Clint’s first kiss and bisexual awakening—making him realize he might be lonelier than he thought.

Clint and August fall back into an easy friendship. Some of their best childhood memories are the days they spent at the creek: talking, laughing, and learning about who they were. But now they’re adults, the attraction palpable between them. It’s not long before they’re tumbling into bed, stealing moments for secret kisses and spending days exploring each other.

They can’t move too fast, though. Reese misses his other father, and sometimes August worries Reese would rather be with him. They’re just getting their life on track, and the last thing August wants is to shake it up by telling Reese he’s with Clint. But as it turns out, that’s not the only obstacle in their way….

The Creek is a small-town, second-chances, friends-to-lovers romance, with mature men who talk about their feelings, stolen kisses, and nights spent beneath the stars.

Second Chances

August is starting over with his son in his old home town. Clint was his best friend back then. I love how they quickly rekindled that friendship. The interaction between them and others in the area is entertaining. I also like how we get to see how strong Clint’s feelings become. Great story of section changes and making choices. I listened to the audio and it was very well done.

Excellent Series

I liked all the Briar County books but this one had me actually fighting back tears at the end. Oh my gosh, I love this community, and Kale Williams just brought it to life.

I want more please!

I really enjoyed this. I listened to it and the narration was great. I really hope we have more stories in this realm! More mature men is my jam right now! So tired of reading about 20 year olds in love.
