Picking up shortly after the events in the sizzling New York Times bestseller Just One Night—which the New York Journal of Books declared “gives Fifty Shades of Grey a run for its money”—this sexy e-short, told from the perspective of Robert Dade, delves further into his tumultuous love affair with Kasie Fitzgerald. “If you won’t be ruthless for love, how valuable is that love?” Robert Dade is a man who knows what he wants and never hesitates to go after it. Money, power, and—at long last—the woman he loves, Kasie Fitzgerald, are now his. But after so many years of living by his own rules will he really make the compromises necessary to keep Kasie by his side? And when a man even richer and more ruthless than he is takes an interest in Kasie, will Dade be able to protect her? Or will his controlling nature drive her toward the very danger he seeks to shield her from? The seductive second tale in the New York Times bestselling Just One Night series, Just Once More introduces some of the fascinating characters from the wild new Kyra Davis novel, Just One Lie—the long-awaited next full-length work in the internationally beloved series.
What does true love look like once the honeymoon’s over? Eight smoking-hot rugby players. Eight partners. Seventeen kids. Beaches and barbecues and beer, salt and sand and sea. Family and good mates and no worries. December in New Zealand. One very pregnant, very tired Hannah Montgomery Callahan playing hostess to it all, doing her best and wondering if her best is good enough. And one legendary All Black captain willing to do whatever it takes to show her that when he promised to be there for her forever, he meant it. Note: This book, like New Zealand … aw, heck. Three steamy scenes, as usual. And they’re good ones.
I blame the spiked eggnog. It’s the reason for my pounding headache this morning and the astronomically bad decision I made last night. See, I slept with my best friend, and sure, I’ve been in love with him for ages, but that doesn’t change the fact that I just had a drunken one-night stand with the most important person in my life. I know that we might have just messed up everything so when he wakes up, I suggest forgetting that this ever happened, but he surprises me. He doesn’t want to forget about it. Instead, he proposes that we do it again. Just once more, he says, and like an idiot, I agree. I only hope that once more is enough for me.
