Hasty

Do-Over, Book 4

By: Julia Kent

Narrated by: Erin Mallon

Length: 8 hrs and 30 mins

Publisher's Summary

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 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 best-selling 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.

Humble pie!

After Hasty was such a beyaatch in the earlier books, was looking forward to seeing her get a dose of humility and this was done so well! It was good to get to know her better and to witness her growth journey as it unfolded. As always, Erin Mallon was the perfect narrator! Overall it was worth the wait and a great end to the series!

noooo I don't want it to be over!

I have enjoyed this series sooo much and wish it wasn't over. Phenomenal author and narrator. Hilarious. Loved it!

Awesome conclusion to series!

Another hit by one of my favourite Authors and narrators! The best book combo!

This was an amazing conclusion to the series, I enjoyed getting to know Hasty better. I had a few ok a lot of giggles along the way!

Narration was A W E S O M E as always, Erin you are amazing and your male voice is 👌🏻

Erin Mallon

Narrated by Erin Mallon. I know if I see those four words on a release it’s going to be good. I read all of the books in the do over series and I loved each one. I kept wishing they would introduce more characters so they could continue this Series. I’m sorry to see them go but I do look forward to finding another series by the same author.

I couldn't put it down

This book was probably one of favorite books of this series. in my opinion it was what a romantic comedy is supposed to be. Hilarious, emotional and sweet, with a hea ending. Ms.Kent did an amazing job yet again.

Loved it!

This laugh out loud romcom hits the spot! We’ve seen Hastings in the other books in the series and it was great to see her star in her own book and find her happily ever after.
You could not go with a better narrator for this character. Erin Mallon brings Hastings to life and is such a joy to listen to.

Live Julia Kent’s books

I was t a fan of Hasty’s character from the previous books - who was really- she did a great job of making her likable. Great book. Made me stop what I was doing (working-oops) to enjoy in full.

Hasty!

When Hasty’s perfect life falls apart she has to start all over. She soon realizes that is the best thing to happen to her. So enjoyed getting to know the real Hasty!!

Don’t be too Hasty to judge!

When I learned that this series wasn’t going to end with the three and that our fourth book was going to feature the sister that we all see climbing over dead bodies to make a deal I was skeptical. So much so that even though I purchased and downloaded on release day it took me two days to listen. This is out of character for me.
Hastings is that one character that I feel like I’ve seen grow on the page. She grew and changed and came out the other side the same person but a better version of that person. She was brash and rude and driven. Hastings is still driven. She just isn’t as rude as before. That’s a good thing translated onto to page!
The romance is adorable. There’s so much chemistry. There’s so much want and need. They are so much the perfect kind of people that make each other better. I love how much they are compatible and I love that he doesn’t want to change her. He’s not saying stop that! He’s saying “I love you because you are so driven and I want you to be happy. I don’t need anything else.”

Erin Mallon is the voice Goddess that we always hear. Girl gives good voice, y’all.

A beautiful journey, with lots of laughs and love

This series is perfect. Each book is steamy AND funny, with very special characters, and a different plot that gives a little depth to the story.

This time, it’s a combination of a financial scandal and a character rediscovering themself. Both develop at the same time, and they both concern Hastings, Mallory’s sister.

I was seriously doubting at first that the author could pull it off. I mean, every time we met Hastings in the previous books, she wasn’t lovable. At all. Could I be interested in her story? Plus, she was married, and though I enjoy domesticity, I doubted this couple would be particularly cute. How wrong I was!

First of all, there’s no cheating, and yet it isn’t the story of Hasty and her husband, but you’ll have to read the book to know why and how. And since Hastings comes back to her hometown to lick her wounds, we see more of all the characters we loved in the previous books. And that’s where she’s going to look into herself and find the girl she’s really meant to be. A beautiful journey, with lots of laughs and love.

As always, the narration was impeccable. Top quality audiobook!

4 stars

This one was good to finish this series. I loved how its a bit different. I look forward to reading more from Julia. And as always Erin Mallon did an amazing job.

A great final book in the Do-Over series.

Having read AND listened to all the other books in this series I must admit that I started listening to this story with apprehension about what was to come. Hastings has popped up in the other books in a small way but she isn't necessarily spoken about as a friendly character so I was thrilled to find that I could really feel for her and really liked her.

I certainly have to congratulate Julia Kent in being able to change my feelings towards Hastings so much that I think this was the best book in this series. Like all the others they can be read independently but the experience is enhanced by reading them all and in order.

The narrator got the intonation and emotion just right and it was a pleasure to listen to.

Finishing the series in a warm hug...

This really was a fantastic end to the series. Not only did you feel like you really got to know Hastings and why she was like she was, you get to like her even more too! I really rooted for Hastings and her seeing the light in life... And Ian...  Just wow! 🖤

I loved how all our previous main characters were part of the story like a comfort blanket, which I know happens with many series but with this "Do Over" series, I just felt closer to the characters and the world they lived in!

The performance of this series has been absolutely fantastic ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Beautiful

This whole series has been a beautiful journey and this one did not disappoint either. I honestly felt like I was a part of the book like these were my friends. I’ve laughed and teared up and cheered the characters on. This is the sign of a fantastic author and novel. Loved this so much

What a hilarious conclusion to this great series

Oh I'm going to miss this great bunch of friends and the unbelievable situations they get into. Poor Hasty had a nasty shock courtesy of her husband, but Ian comes to her rescue even though she views him as her nemesis. It was good how all the previous characters in this series have a share in the eventual HEA. The narrators did an amazing job of bringing all the characters to life and I definitely recommend this audiobook.
