Hammered

by Pippa Grant

2019

Bad-boy bartender Jace O’Dell is minutes from saying "I do" to the wrong woman when his best friend Brooke kidnaps him in a Vespa sidecar. Their spur-of-the-moment escape from a blackmail-fueled wedding turns into a second chance at the romance they never quite dared to claim.

Series background & context

Happy Cat is where Pippa Grant lets her imagination run wild in a small Georgia town full of O’Dell brothers, meddling neighbors, and animals who absolutely refuse to behave. The series is co‑written with Lili Valente, and each book stands alone while contributing to an overall sense that Happy Cat is the kind of place you might accidentally move to and never want to leave.

The town itself is a character. It is the sort of place where gossip travels faster than text messages, everyone knows who left their porch light on, and a raccoon might steal the show at the local fire station. The O’Dell men are at the heart of a lot of that chaos. They are firefighters, bartenders, grumps, softies, and, occasionally, the wrong groom at the altar.

In Hosed, a firefighter and the nerdy next‑door neighbor find themselves thrown together amid a pet raccoon, a scandalous local incident involving adult toys, and a whole lot of gossip. The book sets the tone for the rest of the series. Sexy, yes, but also deeply silly in the best way, and grounded in a community that knows how to tease and how to show up when it counts.

Hammered turns a last‑minute wedding rescue into an impulsive kidnapping of the groom, then dares the town’s resident bad boy and his sunshine‑bright best friend to figure out what they actually want from each other. Hitched revisits a couple with history, handing them a fake marriage, an alpaca that needs saving, and a second chance to get it right. Humbugged adds holiday sparkle, pairing a gruff Marine with a baker who would rather avoid both men and Christmas, then trapping them together in a swirl of caroling disasters, bakery mishaps, and genuine warmth.

A bonus novella, Happily Ever Aftered, checks in on the wider cast with a British single dad and a nanny searching for real love amid all the usual Happy Cat shenanigans. Throughout, animals play a big role. Raccoons, hedgehogs, dogs, and assorted furry friends keep sneaking into scenes, adding slapstick moments and unexpected tenderness.

Happy Cat also connects to Copper Valley and the broader Pippaverse. Characters cross over, jokes pay off in other series, and readers who follow along get the pleasure of seeing familiar faces pop up in new contexts. If you like small‑town romcoms where the pets misbehave, the heat level is high, and the community feels real despite all the outrageous antics, Happy Cat is a delightful stop.
