Publisher Description
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 McCrory.
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 at 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.
Read the penultimate 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.
And ends with a surprisingly cheesy happily ever after.

"From the very first page of Hasty, I knew I was in for a ride. I felt as if I were seeped into the character's lives, feeling second-hand embarrassment and frustration as their paths crossed.

Customer Reviews
I just knew that I needed to read this
I’m not really sure what I was expecting out of Hasty’s book. I just knew that I needed to read it because I had so deeply loved the books that came before it. I probably should have, but I certainly never expected the woman we all loved to hate so much in those previous books to be a complex, vulnerable character with hopes and fears I could relate to. I hated the necessity of seeing Hastings brought so low, but she needed something with enough impact to shake her free of her bad attitude and worse behavior. I think it’s both a blessing and a curse to see this story from only Hasting’s viewpoint. I think I got to know her really well, but even at the end of the book, Ian remains a bit of an enigma to me. The one thing I was expecting was the humor, and the author did not disappoint me in any way shape or form on that front. This is probably not a book to read in public unless you’re comfortable with strangers looking at you oddly when you giggle-snort and belly laugh for no reason they can see. I kind of hate that it’s all over now.
I received a complimentary advanced copy of this book from the author.
I loved it!
This is the fourth and last book in the Do-Over Series, an amazing Romantic Comedy. I LOVE this Series! You can read Hasty as a standalone, but believe me, you don't want to miss one book in the Series. Hastings "Hasty" is Mallory's sister, and we met her in Fluffy, and she was such a mean character! I love how the author redeems her in this story! She is feisty, talkative, hilarious, strong, independent, capable, and smart. Ian is handsome, supportive, and caring. I love his determination to help Hasty. The supporting characters are amazing. Hasty's parents are wonderful characters! The storyline is intriguing, hilarious, and beautiful. This is my favorite story in the Series. Hasty and Ian are wonderful characters, and we get to see all the previous characters from Fluffy, Perky and Feisty! I would love to revisit it in audiobook (narrated by Erin Mallon!). Looking forward for more books written by Julia Kent.
