Review: Just One Night

Reviewed by Allison
 

Micah's parents can't handle her decision to leave her successful corporate job and become an artist, so they kicked her out. Without anywhere to go, she ended up bunking with her best friend of thirteen years, Tomas. The only problem with this potential haven is that Micah is head over heels in love with Tomas, and it's getting harder and harder to pretend otherwise. She doesn't know how many more nights she can take Tomas coming home late, shirt untucked, hair mussed, and obviously satisfied - by someone else.

However, what Micah doesn't know is that Tomas is working overtime each night, going out every weekend, finding girls to fall into bed with... only to take the edge off. Tomas wants Micah with a passion, but thinks he isn't good enough. He wasn't when she asked him to be her first thirteen years ago and he feels nothing has changed. Besides, there is no way in hell he could have just one night. He couldn't walk away. So, knowing this, he stays away the best he can.

Until one night - Micah gets drunk, Tomas gets jealous and the truth is finally revealed.

I loved this story. It had equal parts steam and love, creating the perfect recipe. I came to care for Mike (though it's a horrible nickname) and Tomas - I was rooting for them to figure it out the whole 75 pages on my nook. I definitely wish it were longer, that we could have seen how things worked out for them, but for what it is, I wholeheartedly recommend this to everyone - let Micah and Tomas add a little spice to your day!
