With a new master's degree in hand, a sassy bartender navigates the perils of her family's bar business as she tries to escape her dysfunctional life. ***** Growing up under a neon bar sign with minimal parental supervision imbued JUNE CASHMERE with plenty of moxie. Raised by a narcissistic mother and a drug-dealing dad who stole her car and went on the lam, June has worked her way through college as a bartender in her parents' bar. She has a weakness for one-night-stands and a gift for reading a customer's taste before their butt hits the barstool, a fine skill by anyone's measure. Just days before snagging her master's degree and her ticket to freedom, June meets CABE FRANKLIN, a hazel-eyed hottie with humor and a surprisingly level head. He's in town long enough to make a business deal, and he doesn't leave until June is properly intrigued. But June's future plans go south when her mom decides to bail on the bar biz, dropping a load of legal problems in June's lap. Cabe, who happens to be in the real estate biz, helps June find her missing father so she can sell the bar, which happens to sit on a prime piece of beach property. Is their hook-up destiny? Or is it a cheap shot? The Bartender's Guide To The Galaxy follows the sexploits of an independent woman as she navigates everything the universe throws at her, including egos the size of Jupiter.
