Description

Ever meet a hot billionaire while your hand's in a toilet in the men's room of one of his stores?

No? So it really is just me. Hmm.

When you're a mystery shopper, you get paid to humiliate yourself, all in the name of improving customer service. Romance isn't in my job description. But the day I met Declan McCormick it was love at first flush. 

Until I nearly castrated him with my EpiPen.

How Hot Guy and Toilet Girl became an item involves my crazy mom, a trip to the ER, my homicidal cat, my fake wife, and true love.

Don't look at me like that. I'm just doing my job.

I'm shopping for a billionaire.

Praise for Julia Kent’s Books:
"Heartwarming and intensely emotional, Our Options Have Changed is witty, sexy and hilarious with a heroine you admire and a hero you can't help falling in love with." -- Helena Hunting, New York Times bestselling author

"Reading a Julia Kent book is like taking a vacation with your best friends. They'll make you laugh, tug on your heartstrings, and leave you wanting more." -- New York Times bestselling author Melissa Foster

"Kent and Reed create rom com magic in this friends to lovers romance. Laughter, tears, and all the swoons." -- USA Today Best Selling author Daisy Prescott

"Witty, sexy, funny and delightfully delicious--love it from beginning to end."-- USA Today bestselling author T Gephart

"An utterly charming celebration of the messiness of love, life, and motherhood... every woman deserves a Nick." -- Laurelin Paige, New York Times bestselling author

"Julia Kent is my go-to author when I want to laugh, swoon and just feel oh-so-good as I get lost in a romance! Hasty delivers on all those fronts!" ~ #1 New York Times Bestseller Lauren Blakely

"I love Hasty so much! I will never not smile every time I think about Hastings Monahan, her epic fall from the top, moving back home with her parents, her ex, and the cow thing. Bonus, Ian McCrory is a total swoon fest of a hero. Ten thousand stars!" ~ USA Today Bestselling Author Pippa Grant

"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. I adored this book and I cannot wait to dive into another Julia Kent romance!" ~ New York Times Bestselling Author Carrie Ann Ryan

"Hasty was the perfect antidote to 2020 - utterly adorable and deliciously satisfying." ~ USA Today Bestselling Author Melanie Harlow

"Holy rabbit milk cheese! Julia Kent is the only author capable of making me laugh my lady parts inside out! Hastings, is a heroine after my own heart. The things that come out of that woman's mouth are pure *chef's kiss.* I promise you Julia saved the best for last in this series!" Wall Street Journal Bestselling Author Nana Malone

Biography:

New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Julia Kent writes romantic comedy with an edge, with more than 2.5 million eBook, print, and audiobooks sold and 5 appearances on the New York Times bestseller list. Her books have been translated into German, Italian, and French, with more languages coming soon.

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 lives in New England with her husband, three children, and an adorable Havanese doggo named Walter.

    These are laugh out loud funny even as I read them for the second time. Toilet Girl and Hot Guy are a perfect couple. The job of a secret shopper is the background of the books works well. The bonus book is one that I read every Christmas. Enjoy!
  • One, or rather five, fantastic reads!

    This is a great love story, full of mixed messages, and misunderstandings. There’s lots of sex but it wasn’t “dirty”. Best thing, though, was that I lost count of how many times I laughed out loud. Fortunately these 5 are pretty much self contained because I can’t afford to buy the rest of the series. 😔

    Bought the collection- I feel to get to the great parts of the book there is so much extra dialogue and side stories and descriptions not needed filling the mass of pages.... frustrating really!

    I typically read a book in a day or two depending on my "mom schedule". I don't leave reviews because while I might enjoy them what stranger wants to hear my opinion on it until now. My co worker was listening to this book on audio during work (of course only on her break) and kept laughing hysterically. So several of us got on the subject of listening to someone else read to us and reading on our own. When she starts to tell us parts of this story, it got me curious. So I went home that night and downloaded it. I wanted to call into work sick the next day because I didn't want to put it down. I pulled an all nighter trying to get through the series. I had to go into another room because my laughing was so hard I was snorting (which is not only not very lady like but according to my husband was disturbing his sleep). Best comedy book I have read in a long time and I can't wait until more books come out. The writing is hilarious. I would not recommend reading this book some place where you are required to be quiet or where you don't want to get caught (like work) because you will laugh at almost every page. Loved it!!

    Laughed out loud. These stories are entertaining, romance and steam. Too funny not to read. Excellent. Worth the time spent.
  • You won't be able to put it down until you've finished the box!
