Synopsis

“Promise you won’t break my heart, Brax.”

He promised. I believed. Brax Kent was a liar. He shattered every possible piece of me.
Several years passed before I got through an entire day without shedding a tear. My existence was hollow, empty, bleak. Hate was the only thing that pushed me through the day.

Seven years later, who turns up to be my next door neighbor? The man I despise with every ounce of my being.

And now he wants me back. With flowery words and sworn oaths full of apologies, he begs. Can this man who ruined me be trusted? Only his obstinance, persistence, and beautiful face weaken my resolve.

And I stupidly expose my heart as he wedges himself inside, bit by bit. Surrendering completely may mean absolute love, or absolute destruction.
The choice is mine. Cross the line in the sand, or stay in my safe zone.

*One Blissful Night is a complete stand alone, enemies to lovers, contemporary romance, with no cliffhanger.

  Excerpt

Hours passed and she finally stood. I did too and said, “Reynolds, I—” Her hand flew out. “You don’t have the right to speak to me. You lost that right several hours ago. You don’t have the right to follow me, touch me, or call me. We are over.” “I need to explain.” “You must have a hearing problem. Your needs mean nothing to me.” She walked away. I followed only because she was not getting away that easy. I would not give up on us. Never again. I was on her tail and as she went to get into her car, she said, “I told you to leave me alone.” “I know. I heard. But I refuse to do that. Not until you hear me out. I deserve that much from you.” “You deserve nothing. You promised—”  

   

My Review
*ARC received in return for an honest review

One Blissful Night, the third instalment in The West Sisters series, is Reynolds' story and is an enemies to lovers/second chance romance. Although it can be read as a standalone, I'd recommend reading the others in the series first, if you haven't already. This will give you a better reading experience and avoid possible spoilers of the previous books.

This book had everything I love, and have come to expect, from a A.M. Hargrove novel... 
Red hot, passionate chemistry to get you hot under more than the collar, boy was it HOT!🔥
Wonderful characters you love and wish you knew them in real life
A villain who makes you shout at your kindle and cheer at their downfall (well, I did anyway)
Enough angst to tug at your heartstrings
Author's quirky sense of humour that has you chuckling and often laughing out loud
A plot that flows so easily it hooks you from the beginning.

I really enjoyed Reynolds' story. I thought she and Brax were perfect for each other and I especially liked the slow burn to rekindle their relationship. When I wasn't cooling myself down from the scorching passionate scenes I was chuckling away at the pranks Reynolds played on Brax and the way he retaliated back. Yes, they might've seemed childish but they were sooo funny, I particularly loved Rudy the rooster. One scene I laughed out loud at wasn't a prank but it did involve a seagull, I couldn't stop laughing!!

I have loved this series and can't wait for the next book, which is Brax's brother Acer.

As I have already said, One Blissful Night ticks all the boxes for me and is a must read, I can't recommend it enough. 

My rating...
