AN
ALL-NEW STANDALONE FROM NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR JULIA KENT
I never
thought my perp walk would lead to true love.
Then again,
I never thought I’d be arrested on RICO charges and hauled away in zip ties on
camera for the world to see, minutes after closing the most amazing deal of my
career.
And all of
it in front of my biggest rival, billionaire wunderkind Ian McRory.
I am broke.
I am
disgraced.
I am alone.
I am a
sucker.
But the
worst part? I have to go back to my hometown and live in my bedroom filled with
relics from my childhood.
Lisa Frank
never made me so mad before.
Just when I
needed a rescue, I got one — in the form of help from my biggest rival.
He can’t
bring back my money.
He
certainly can’t bring back my reputation or my pride.
But there’s
one thing he can bring back to me.
A sense of
hope.
Maybe even
love.
Ian sees
something in me no one else does, and he’s relentless about making me see it,
too. As we grow closer, I’m starting to see that while my entire life used to
be a lie, the truth is staring me in the present — and it’s a truth I like
very, very much, hot eyes and gorgeous smile and all.
But I have
to be careful.
I can’t be
too —
That’s
right.
Hasty.
The final
book in the USA Today bestselling Do-Over Series (Fluffy, Perky, Feisty), as
Mallory’s sister, Hastings “Hasty” Monahan gets her turn at a happily
ever after that starts off with an arrest.
Hers.

Excerpt

Ian keeps chasing me, though. Why? And why does the fact that he won’t
let up thrill me?
That’s the part I hate. The thrill. The zing of arousal that shoots
through me every time that jerkface–who isn’t a jerk–does this. He’s pursuing
me and I don’t understand it, but I do like it.
More than I want to admit.
The fight inside me feels like layers of muscles in my abs are in a
tug-of-war. Ian McCrory represents everything I fought to achieve in my old
life. Self-made billionaire. Liked by everyone. Admired by even more.
Respected for his hardcore negotiating skills.
And droolingly handsome.
He was my nemesis. My enemy. The guy who sniped deals, and who I
sniped from. We were adversaries, but he flipped the script, didn’t
he? Coming to my rescue. Aiding me in a time of need.
I don’t want to need him.
And I especially don’t need to want him.
I stare at the phone. Just as my finger goes to the Power button to turn
it off again, three dots appear.
One dinner. Indulge me?
I go into my contacts, and I block him.
He just proved me right.
Taking help from people means you’re obligated.
And no matter how sweet the currency he’s dangling, I don’t like owing
him.
I don’t like owing anyone.
Burke turned my entire life into one big debt.
But my body isn’t available as collateral.
And neither is my heart.

TBRreview
I swear every Julia Kent book is my most favorite, until the next comes out. But isn’t that the way with any new book by an author you love?

We’ve been conditioned to hate Hasty (I mean Hastings) since the beginning of the series. So this book was LONG coming for me. I wanted to know why she was so snooty and snobby and just generally not nice. So this book was the perfect dive into why and how Hasty was the way she was.

There is one quote in the book that stuck with me and I think summarizes Hasty’s mentality in this story when she is talking with Ian about how being a human being isn’t a competition and when she realized it, “I’ve come to realize that kindness is a better barometer of success than being number one.” I think that’s something EVERYONE needs to realize.

I don’t know who else might have a story but I don’t want to let these characters go. So I hope there’s more <3.

5 stars!
Author Bio
New York Times and USA
Today
bestselling author Julia Kent writes romantic comedy with an edge.
Since 2013, she has sold more than 2 million books, with 4 New York Times
bestsellers and more than 19 appearances on the USA Today bestseller list. Her
books have been translated into French and German, with more titles releasing
in 2019.
From billionaires to BBWs to new adult rock stars, Julia finds a sensual, goofy
joy in every contemporary romance she writes. Unlike Shannon from Shopping for
a Billionaire, she did not meet her husband after dropping her phone in a men’s
room toilet (and he isn’t a billionaire she met in a romantic comedy).

She lives in New England with her husband and three children where she is the
only person in the household with the gene required to change empty toilet
paper rolls.
