Determined to grow her business into an entertainment company, Georgie trades in her sloppy baseball caps and thrift store jeans for a brand new wardrobe with a sophisticated edge. While Travis struggles to find his place in the world, Georgie seeks a ‘seat at the adult table.’ As the youngest member of the Castle clan, twenty-three-year-old Georgie is often ignored and dismissed by Stephen and older sister Bethany, a situation that isn’t helped by the fact that she works as a children’s party clown. Travis is moved by her efforts and decides to take a construction job with the Castle family’s remodeling company. When Georgie learns that Travis is in crisis, she attempts to rouse him out of his funk with her no-nonsense antics and supportive straight talk. Georgie Castle has had a crush on her older brother Stephen’s best friend, Travis, since they were children. Forced to retire at twenty-eight-years-old, Travis has spiraled into depression and taken to drink. Major league baseball player Travis Ford moves back to his home town in Long Island, New York after sustaining a career-ending injury. I wouldn’t normally read a novel that gives off a cutesy vibe, but, given Bailey’s reputation as a prolific bestselling romance author, and the sexy series title ( Hot and Hammered), I decided to take a chance.
