A space bartender

JUNE CASHMERE developed a lot of moxie while growing up without much parental supervision and under a neon bar sign. June has worked her way through college as a barmaid in her parents' bar. June was raised by a narcissistic mother and a drug-dealing father who took her car and fled. She has a weakness for one-night hookups and the ability to gauge a customer's preferences before their butt touches the bar stool, which is an admirable talent in anyone's book. June meets CABE FRANKLIN, a hazel-eyed hunk with humour and a remarkably level brain, just days before obtaining her master's degree and her passport to freedom. He stays in town long enough to close a deal and waits until June is truly captivated before he departs. However, June's future ambitions are derailed when her mother decides to leave the bar business, leaving June to deal with a number of legal issues. June has to sell the bar, which is located on a prime piece of beach land, so Cabe, who works in real estate, helps her locate her missing father. Is their romance predetermined? Is it a cheap stab, or what?In The Bartender's Guide to the Galaxy, an independent woman navigates the universe's challenges, including egos the size of Jupiter.
