It’s here!!!!!! ONE WILD NIGHT is LIVE!
It’s fun.
It’s flirty.
It’s sexy.
And yep, it’ll still give you the feels!
I had an absolute blast writing this collaboration with one of my very best friends, Rebecca Shea, and we’re so proud to bring it to you. It’s a departure from what we typically write, but there is something about it that just hit the spot 😉
I hope you love Paxton and Kaylee’s super fun, sexy story <3

Review
4 stars!
This is such a cute read! Sweet, sexy and super-quick with a to-die-for celebrity hero and just the right balance of steam and heart to make this a fun yet heartfelt read that kept me captivated and left me with a smile on my face.
Kaylee is doing her best friend a favour by attending the Hollywood premiere of her director father’s latest film. As a kindergarten teacher who prefers the quiet life, it’s definitely not Kaylee’s scene and she regrets her decision to attend from the moment she arrives, but everything changes when she stumbles on the red carpet, literally landing in the arms of star of the movie and Hollywood heart throb, Paxton Myles.
Pax can have any woman he wants – and he does, frequently. But the beautiful blonde literally takes his breath away and he immediately recognises her as something special, knowing that he has to have her.
“Why me?” She stops us dead in our tracks. We stand in the dark hallway just outside my bedroom.
“Because when something you didn’t realize you were looking for falls into your lap, literally … and it feels right? You don’t let it go.”
It’s a case of mad insta-lust, and their night together rocks both of their worlds, but Kaylee figures it’s a one-night thing. But with the paparazzi hounding her, and her life suddenly shaken upside down when her one wild night becomes front page news, it’s Pax to the rescue when he swoops in and makes his feelings clear.
“Fuck the whole world because I want you to be a part of mine.”
And that’s just the beginning!
I loved this book. It’s a really quick read – almost more like a novella – and though things move quickly without a lot of build-up, there’s a sense of the fairytale about the story. Pax and Kaylee feel strongly about each other, and they don’t hide their attraction. They put it all out there and follow their hearts (and their raging libidos), and I loved watching their relationship unfold. There is some drama to deal with, but for the most part this is a happy, functional, deeply attracted couple figuring it all out and finding their way to a HEA.
“I want us to figure this out, Kaylee Rose. That when I step out, the whole goddamned world knows that I’m taken. That I belong to you and you belong to me. That you’re mine. No speculation or questions. We just are.”
This book is lots of fun, and I’m excited to read more from these two authors as this series continues.
4 stars.

Hollywood Chronicles
Excerpt
Roger Ward was truly brilliant.
And by God, so was the face that entered the screen. It was an outright crime for a man to look as good as Paxton Myles, and now I knew first hand it wasn’t just photoshopping and lighting.
So maybe in this film he was playing eighteenth century English Royalty.
None of that really mattered.
Because the man was a freaking Greek God.
The air stirred, a whoosh of quieted activity at the empty seat that was supposed to belong to Elle.
My breath hitched. I struggled not to inhale, struggled not to look. Struggled to pretend as if I wasn’t hit with an overwhelming urge to turn and bury my nose in that masculine scent I could feel prodding at my senses.
The way my chest was heaving and my hands curled around the armrests had to have been obvious enough.
Suddenly he was there, pushing into my personal space, his mouth at my ear. His Southern accent that had me in a puddle earlier was now twisted to match the character on the screen. “He’s a good-looking bloke, isn’t he?”
I had to shake my head to clear it of the stupor. My chin tipped up toward him, my eyes narrowed in a scowl. “Excuse me?” It came out an accusation.
He just sent me one of those belly-flipping grins, the magnitude of it lit up in the frames flicking across the screen. “That bloke there on the screen. You seemed a little…impressed.”
“Um, wow. Someone’s full of themselves, aren’t they?”
I sent the words with all the confidence I could muster, hoping they would knock him down a notch.
His cockiness just grew. Those full lips tweaked into a smirk. “Oh, Kaylee Rose. Don’t act like I couldn’t tell you wanted to climb right over these chairs and fall into that screen. And here I am, in the flesh. No need to go pretending when you can have the real deal.”
“Shh.” It was all a frantic whisper, my eyes wide and wild as they jumped to Roger and Lindsay, praying they weren’t noticing who’d slithered up to my side.
God. Did the man have no shame?
His hand found the slit on my dress, his fingertips light, so, so light I had to wonder if he was really even touching me. Still, the energy eliciting a cascade of chills, an illicit feeling washing me in thigh-clenching desire.
“I like your dress.” He whispered it like a tease.
Nope.
No shame whatsoever.
He inched closer, and I lost all my breath. My hands clutched tighter to the armrests, and I gave it my all to keep my breaths from panting out of my lungs.
“Stop it,” I hissed.
“Stop what?” Oh yes, he could play it off as all kinds of innocent. But I could see the mischief glinting in the brown of his eyes.
“Stop trying to get a rise out of me.”
“Is that what I’m doing? Getting a rise out of you? I’m fairly certain it’s the reverse.”
