It all started with a naked hitchhiker wearing a guitar – and only a guitar. A random meeting between a rural Ohio chick and a rich Boston musician kickstarted all sorts of random acts of love and lust, and got even more complicated when his bandmate entered the picture. And never left.

From there, the band’s story expands: the drummer reconnects with a high school sweetheart across a four-year gulf of secrets. The guitar player shows up at a bachelorette party as a stripper and discovers his ex-girlfriend in the crowd – along with his own mother, who doesn’t recognize him. Proposals go awry when bandmates upstage each other. A road trip from St. Louis to LA with two damaged people teaches them that being independent doesn’t always mean being free. Christmas Eve devolves into arrest warrants, Truth or Dare gone wrong, and a chicken named Mavis saving the day. And a Vegas gig goes sideways when all the band’s money gets gambled away.

Five band members. Eleven books. And a wild ride through love, music, and the truth that these random acts are anything but.


The Random Series Boxed Sets collect New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Julia Kent’s eleven-book romantic comedy saga in three volumes. Volume 1 (Books 1-3) introduces Darla, Trevor, and Joe in Random Acts of Crazy, Trust, and Fantasy – the unconventional love story that started it all. Volume 2 (Books 4-6) follows the guitar player’s second-chance romance, a proposal short story, and Darla’s journey home to face her own hypocrisy in Random Acts of Hope, Yes, and Love. Volume 3 (Books 7-9) takes a new direction with a substitute bass player’s road trip, Christmas hijinks involving jail and alleged prostitution, and a Vegas disaster in Random Acts of LA, Christmas, and Vegas.

Featuring rock-star romance, menage love stories, second chances, road trips, found family, and a chicken who keeps showing up at the worst possible moments, the Random series celebrates unconventional love, fierce friendship, and the truth that the craziest things in life are often the most real.
