REVIEW:When reading a C.A.R book I always know what I am going to get; that being a well-rounded story with great characters and a plot that I know I am going to enjoy. My One Night is exactly that. The first in her new On My Own series is a hit in more ways than one. For a hopeless romance reader like myself, this new adult/young adult book was really fun to read.
When I read the blurb for the book, I was thinking that it was going to be another killer story about a one-night stand that turned into an insta love. I was so wrong. Now don’t get me wrong, this definitely turns into love, but its more than an insta love story. Dillion and Elise truly hit it off, their chemistry is real and its oh so sweet. C.A.R stories always have underlining layers to them, depth and emotions that her readers can relate to.
My One Night is a reader of what college was, and what we all wanted it to be like. Growing, changing, parties with friends, drinking and doing stupid things just for the heck of it. Being young and not knowing what you want to do with the rest of your life. Dillion and Elise struggle like any young person would with the possibility of finding “the one” and that leads to fear and mistakes.
Then, when things finally seem all good, life comes in and kicks you in the face, Dillion’s past comes knocking and poor Elise is struck with tragedy that rocks her to her core. Can the new pair face their fears and move forward, or will the bumps of life knock them down?
