Do Over
Ten years ago, my high school crush found me during senior finals week in the student parking lot with my car decorated with items you’d find behind a drugstore counter and a “Most Likely to…” banner that would make a pro blush. He’s the quarterback. He’s used to performing when the clock’s running out. Me? I perform well under pressure, too. But not when Will Lotham is about to kiss me.
Fast forward ten years. I’m a professional fluffer. It’s NOT what you think. I stage homes for a living. But the ad for a “professional fluffer” on Craigslist seemed like divine intervention – until I showed up and discovered that a “fluffer” doesn’t arrange decorative pillows. Turns out the job involves helping with… other soft, round-ish objects. And the house where we’re filming illegally? It belongs to Will Lotham. My high school crush. By the time the cops showed up, what I thought was a great staging gig turned into a nightmare. But you know what’s easier than I ever imagined? Having all my dreams come true.
My best friend Persephone let her boyfriend take compromising pictures five years ago. He posted them on a website and she became a meme. Now she’s done – time for revenge.

Hastings never thought her perp walk would lead to true love. Arrested on RICO charges minutes after closing the biggest deal of her career – in front of her biggest rival, billionaire wunderkind Ian McCrory – she lost everything. Her money, her reputation, her pride. But Ian sees something in her no one else does. And he’s relentless about making her see it, too.
Will and I got married. Our honeymoon was supposed to be picture-perfect in Fiji. Instead, our past came back to haunt us. A lascivious film crew next door, a didgeridoo that doubles as something else, and an unexpected encounter with the police – again. But by the time we untangled the mess, we found perfection on our own terms.
The Do-Over series by New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Julia Kent is a six-book romantic comedy saga centered on four best friends from the small town of Anderhill, Massachusetts, whose lives take sudden, hilarious turns when they each get surprise second chances at love.
From a valedictorian rivalry that becomes a decade-long slow burn, to a revenge plot that backfires in the best way, to a blind date with the boy you drop-kicked in middle school, to falling for your biggest business rival after a very public arrest – each book delivers a fresh “do-over” romance with Julia Kent’s signature humor, heart, and wildly embarrassing situations. Featuring second-chance romance, enemies-to-lovers chemistry, strong female friendships, and misunderstandings so spectacular they border on legendary, this series proves that sometimes the best things in life come on the second try. Readers who love laugh-out-loud rom-coms with bold heroines, swoon-worthy heroes, and the kind of chaos that only true friends can survive will devour every book.
