New York Times & USA Today Bestselling Author Lorhainne Eckhart brings you ONE NIGHT, A high-stakes suspense and sizzling, red-hot romance!
A blind date goes deadly on a night she’ll never forget!
Kate Sikes has it all: she’s smart and sexy, she has a great career, and she really does believe in happy endings—only she always picks the wrong guys. Nonetheless, she’s determined to meet the … the wrong guys. Nonetheless, she’s determined to meet the man of her dreams, and she believes she’s finally found the one when she turns to online dating. However, her high hopes are once again dashed when Mr. Right turns out to be Mr. Wrong, with some seriously heavy baggage that has Kate running for her life.
When Detective Walker Pruett comes to Kate’s rescue not once but twice, he realizes the only way to keep her safe from a crazy stalker is to keep her close. But his life is far from easy. He’s a lone wolf, and the last thing he’s looking for is attachment. After One Night with Kate, though, Walker can’t fight the chemistry sizzling between them. Not only does he find her irresistible, he feels compelled to protect her. And Kate soon discovers just how far Walker will go to do so.

Kate works in a hotel on the front desk. She is sick and tired of dating losers so she signs up to an online dating site. When she goes on a first date with Ryder, she meets a gorgeous man with green eyes who helps her up after a fall while entering the restaurant. This is Walker, a detective. A lying date. A smashed-up restaurant. Hot stuff. Very hot stuff. Danger. Lots of danger. And more hot stuff. What a fun ride this was and I loved it. Cannot wait to read the next instalment.
A very short, fast paced story. Kate is 22 or 23. I’m not really into NA books, but I am a big fan of this author. In this book, Kate’s reaction to almost everything is to be bitchy. She seemed really immature, snarky, and unpleasant. That attitude overwhelmed the fact that she seemed pretty intelligent.
This book threw me completely off guard. I was so surprised Walker behaved the way he did. I was surprised Kate behaved the way she did. Not to mention that she spent a large portion of a very short book either naked or in someone else’s clothes. Also, she is in her early twenties, doesn’t she have any friends?
The date from hell turned into a journey through crazy town. I’m not even sure if the stalker situation was fully resolved. It left me with unanswered questions. There wasn’t a cliffhanger, but it did read like you got part of a book and not the full story.
I really don’t know how I feel about this book. I understand there are two more books, but I can’t imagine what else they would have to offer. Since this was such a short read, I guess I will forge ahead.
I recieved this book free and I am voluntarily doing a review. Wow talk about chemistry. ..my phone fogged up lol I absolutely love the the storyline and how the characters are brought together. This is a book u will love with sexy characters and danger around the corner
Another great book by Ms Eckhart.
This short story is full of intrigue, suspense, romance and passion.
I can’t wait to read the next book in this series.
I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.
I listened to the audio book. A great beginning to Kate & Walker’s story. Kate meets Walker when a online date turns into a huge disaster. Walker ends up protecting her from a crazy person. The connection between these two are explosive and when they get together it’s hot and steamy. I enjoyed listening to this story and can’t wait to hear the rest of their story.
A little bit of a cliffhanger but I liked it.
Overall: 3
Performance: 3
Story: 4
One Night is the first book in the Kate And Walker: Deadly Dangerous & Desired series and it’s rather short (2.5 hrs). My husband and I listened to this together and we both enjoyed it however, we have a difference of opinion regarding the narrator, Glenda Johnson.
He liked the narration, me, not so much. I would probably have rated it a 2 but he would give it a 4 so therefore I averaged it to 3. I felt that there were way too many places where the inflections in her voice just didn’t fit the words right and I also thought there was too much over-emphasis in a lot of places. I suspect that part of the issue for me is that (with a few exceptions) I prefer listening to a male voice but I tried not to let that influence my opinion for this review.
Regarding the story: I’ve now listened to a few books by Ms. Eckhart from her The Friessens and The Wilde Brothers series and I enjoyed them. One Night is also pretty good but it has a bit of a cliffhanger ending. Fortunately, I own the ebooks of the remaining two stories so I won’t have to wait long to find out more.
It’s not exactly a cliffhanger in the sense that no one is left in peril and the main threat seems to be concluded. However, the relationship between Kate and Walker is kind of left hanging so I think you will definitely want to know more after finishing One Night. I plan to continue with this series but maybe not in audio format.
I should also mention that there is more strong language (in particular the F word) in One Night than there was in the other books I’ve read/listened to. I’m not offended, I mention it so that you aren’t caught by surprise since I know this bothers some readers a lot.
I received a free code from the author for this audiobook but this did not influence my review.
