Once Upon a One Night Stand: A Romance Novel (Lover Book 1)

Overall Content Rating: Adults Only NC-17
This contemporary adult romantic comedy follows a twenty-seven-year-old marketing employee whose friends push her into a birthday bar night that leads to a anonymous hookup with a stranger, then an awkward reunion when he becomes a work client. The story centers on dating anxiety, friend-group meddling, workplace romance, and owning versus hiding sexual choices—not on violence or horror. Parents should expect material suited to mature readers: a prolonged, graphically detailed sex scene (reviewers consistently flag explicit anatomy and climax), additional steamy contact later, frequent strong and mild profanity in dialogue and narration, crude humor about bodies and hookups, and brief imagined sexual-violence thoughts during a nervous moment that are not acted out. Characters are adults; themes from the concern list that apply include sexual content and profanity. There is no noted focus on racism, blasphemy, horror, abuse of children, or underage sexual activity.

About this book
Have you ever tried not liking a guy when your best friends decide you should like him? How about if that guy had the sexiest ass on the planet, and was your birthday-cake one-night-stand with icing on top? London Reeves agrees that three years is a long time to live without sex, but she also believes that one steamy hot night could never last longer than the morning after. Unfortunately, her four lunatic best friends disagree on that last one. The voices in her head disagree, too, and even her mother seems to think she's crazy. And sexyass will not take a goddamn no for an answer. One little dare leads to another, and before she knows it, London finds herself on stage with nothing but sparkly underwear on, and in a strip club, getting the lap dance of her life. Now what exactly is a girl to do against that? Read more
