Hosed (Happy Cat Book 1) Kindle Edition

by Pippa Grant (Author), Lili Valente (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.3 out of 5 stars 6,110 ratings
The world’s hottest firefighter is about to get a second chance with the girl next door…

He’s bossy, arrogant, and so ridiculously hot he should come with a warning label and a pair of flame retardant coveralls.

He’s also the boy who broke my heart when we were in high school.

I want to move in next door to Ryan O’Dell the way I want to be the inexperienced gamer geek suddenly in charge of running my sister’s adult toy factory. Too bad both are written in my stars.

Yeah, I’m the world’s oldest v-card-carrying code-writing nerd.

And he’s the world’s hottest firefighter.

And even though he intimidates the heck out of me, I can’t seem to control my body's response when he’s around.

Where is my dignity? My self-respect? My panties?

Seriously…. Have you seen them? Anyone?

Maybe they’re hiding in his bedroom. With my heart.

Yeah, I know. I’m hosed.

So hosed.

Hosed is a steamy, fun romantic comedy between a firefighter and the gamer girl next door, complete with a pet raccoon, scandalous gossip, and adult toy football. (No, really.) This romance has no cheating or cliffhangers, and ends with a banging awesome happily ever after.

    Pippa Grant wanted to write books, so she did.

    Before she became a USA Today and #1 Amazon bestselling romantic comedy author, she was a young military spouse who got into writing as self-therapy.

Today, she has more than 30 knee-slapping Pippa Grant titles and nine published under the name Jamie Farrell.

    When she’s not writing romantic comedies, she’s fumbling through being a mom, wife, and mountain woman, and sometimes tries to find hobbies. Her crowning achievement? Having impeccable timing for telling stories that will make people snort beverages out of their noses. Consider yourself warned.

    Savannah and her sister Cassie grew up in Happy Cat , while Savannah stayed in their hometown, got married and opened a business selling sex toys ,Cassie was the computer geek and ended up coding in San Francisco she’s also still a virgin . When Savannah catches her husband cheating on her with with something that’s not a human she’s very quick to end the marriage . Totally humiliated and in melt down Savannah leaves Happy Cat and asks Cassie to help out with the running of her business whilst she is away. Not relishing the job as she’s not as outgoing as her sister she agrees to come to Happy Cat , Cassie also knows that some of the residents don’t like the fact that there’s a sex toy business in their sleepy town and are always protesting against it . More importantly though it’s soon becomes clear that someone wants to take matters further and destroy and close the business down permanently . The story is well written and I’ve got to say it made my laugh loudly several times whilst reading it ,of course there’s the hunky love interest for Cassie in the shape of a fireman Ryan who she’s had a crush on since high school, initially she’s quite cool towards him but that changes and things quickly get very hot and very steamy 🔥. Last but certainly not least the one and only George Clooney ...... no, not the actor but the pet raccoon of Ryan who’s antics add a great deal of humour to the story . Will we see a HEA for Cassie & Ryan ? 😍😍I think you can guess the answer to that . There’s also a lovely little bonus chapter you can download told in George’s words about his HEA ...... it’s very sweet ❤️❤️.

    OMG I am not sure where to start I was hooked on this book from the minute I read the blurb, so let’s just say that I was ready to read this.

    Cassie is back in her home town to run her sister sex toy company. The that thing she was ever expecting was to run into o the only man in town she has even a little bit of history with but there in front of her stands her high school crush Ryan O’Dell and in a fire fighters uniform none the less if that isn’t what dreams are made of then what is? But she isn’t in town to reminisce about old times of their short but memorable high school friendship but to run and save her sister failing sex toy factory and company but after a fire in the lab and a few other minor accidents its looking like they are being sabotaged. But with half the town against the factory and her feelings for Ryan escalating faster than any fire could she be about to lose everything?

    Ryan O’Dell couldn’t believe who and what he was seeing Cassie Sunderland arriving on a bike with dildo handlebars….. when did she get back in town and how long is she staying? Ryan has always had a thing for Cassie but never did anything about now she is back in town for how long no one knows but he knows he wants her to be in his life and he is going to show her how good being in town can be until there is a misunderstanding. Can he make it right or has his lack of faith ruined what was the love he never knew he wanted?

    Really loved this book and am hoping that Happy cat becomes a series because there is a story there for Olivia and Jace that’s for sure. Brilliant read.

    Hosed is the sort of seamless collaboration between two fabulous authors that makes you wonder why that didn't always work together.
    This novel has all of the elements of a pretty perfect romantic comedy.
    1. Hot yet soulful hero.
    2. Heroine you'd genuinely like to be friends with.
    3. Eccentric, hilarious secondary characters.
    4. Hot and heavy love story, morphing into sweet and heart pounding true love.
    5. A boo, hiss villain who needs to be dealt with.
    6. A HEA that'll leave you smiling whenever you recall it.
    All in all, this book is just the sort of balm for the soul when things aren't perfect in real life.
    I really hope this is the start of a great writing partnership, everything worked for me.
    Joyous.

    Holy hannah. How can a book be so freaking hilarious but so sweet and adorable at the same time? I enjoyed this book more than five stars can ever express.
    The sex toy factory was a new one for me. I can't say I have ever read a novel quite like this one but it was amazing. Ryan and Cassie are so amazing.
    I want all the other stories about Savannah and Olivia and George Cooney. I can't believe I want to read more about a raccoon! Lol

    FLOVE this book!
    Last night at work I had a couple of hours to kill while systems and programs updated. My immediate thought was, "what do I want to read?". Honestly, though I have almost 4000 books in my Kindle library, I couldn't think of anything I wanted to read that I hadn't already. I figured I'd browse my options and just pick something. I can't even express accurately my level of excitement at seeing Hosed at the top of the list, having totally forgotten about pre-ordering it. I have read several books by Lili Valente, and everything from Pippa Grant (she may or may not be my author crush 😊). Together, this dynamic writing duo did not disappoint.
    Before I made it through the first chapter, I had tears running down my face from laughing so hard. Ryan and Cassie are cute and steamy and so much fun. The secondary characters are quirky and hysterical, and add to the crazy mayhem that unfolds from the very first page.
    These authors pulled out all the stops. I was laughing and crying and experiencing all kinds of feels. I loved how the story played out, though I would have been overjoyed to see the sheep lover get slapped a little harder by karma...but that's just me.
    I'm really hoping to see stories revolving around at least five of the characters in Hosed, and George Cooney needs a recurring role...and why isn't dildo football a real thing? Or is it? I need to Google it. 😉
    My only regret with reading this was the timing. I really should not have started reading this with only a couple of hours available. I was saddened to have to put it down and actually go back to work. 😁
    Do yourself a favor and 1-click Hosed...and for the love of all that is holy, make sure you have enough time, because you will not want to put it down.

    “Some risk are worth taking and Cassie is worth this roll of the dice and so much more.”

    This book was sweet & funny!! Jacob Morgan and Virgina rose did an Amazing Job narrating this book.

    Cassie & Ryan were adorable! The whole town was so funny, the insta chat was so hilarious. This was also a very fast read!

    Pippa Grant is a one click for me. Her books are always well written, funny and engaging with fantastic characters. This was no exception. Cassie returns to her quaint home town full of quirky characters and one hot fire fighter, Ryan, to help run her sisters adult shop. As you can imagine there is some crazy antics, ridiculous and runaway town gossip all via InstaChat, a mystery to solve, a thieving raccoon called George Cooney, a sheep loving ex-brother in law and of course a love story. Cassie is smart, caring, funny and super supportive of her sister. She deserves her HEA with Ryan, who is gorgeous, funny and protective though of course he does have a couple of moments of stupidity to overcome. A Great read.
