Review: It’s pretty cheeky that a story based on an arranged one-night stand becomes anything but. This looks to be a very fun and well-written series. I can’t wait to sink my teeth into the other two! I really like the character of Jason who doesn’t quite fit into any of the persona’s he floats around in: geeks, the jocks, the computer nerds, or the stereotypical gay man. He seems all right as an adult, finding his own path in life and decides to take a risk to find romantic adventure as he says, “cut through all the bullshit and games”, and arranges an Encounter with the mysterious Madame Eve through her 1 Night Stand dating service. Why not? It worked for his friend.
His trip to Vegas to attend a gaming conference not only loads him with jitters of his planned “encounter” but he knows he may very well meet up with his high school crush, turned professional baseball pitcher, Blake Huntington. Huntington is in town for the conference to sign autographs and wow fans of the new video game he’s featured in. Jason doesn’t even know if Blake will remember him. But what happens when his meet-up with Blake turns into a great catch-up and attraction smolders between them both? I know I wanted him to cancel the date and jump Blake’s bones!
It’s a fun twist how the author plays these two characters and creates a very nervous, yet steamy encounter for them both! The writing is clear and the plot advances smoothly. The characters are colorful, even the supporting ones. The texting conversations between Jason, his sister and friends adds an interesting plot tool to the story. Though I’m not crazy about hash tags. But I am crazy about this book! Get it, read it, and read the rest of the series. You won’t’ regret it! This 1 Nightstand is definitely The Best Ever!
