A few too many cocktails in paradise, and I woke up in someone else’s bed. My ex-boyfriend’s cousin’s bed, to be exact.Huge mistake.Nate and I agreed it wouldn’t happen again. We didn’t want to hurt Brody. Only it did happen, repeatedly, until I finally found the courage to walk away.But I couldn’t ignore the temptation, and I soon found myself back in his bed—or on his floor—stealing secret … floor—stealing secret kisses and forbidden touches, sneaking around behind everyone’s backs.
I tried so hard to resist Nate’s charms, but my resolve crumbled. How could I not be swept off my feet by water towers in the rain and deep confessions on the beach?
The last thing we want is to hurt anyone, but it is out of our control. And there isn’t a thing I can do except give him my heart and hope he keeps it safe…regardless of the consequences.

A wonderfully well written emotional romance that is filled with angst, love, passion, scandel, drama, and action. This contemporary romance includes great strong and relatable characters with awsomesome reaccuring entertaining secondaries from the first two in the series even though it is a standalone. Harper and Nate’s story is a powerful storyline because they have such a strong connection and explosive chemistry but Harper dated Nates cousin Brody and is still his roomate and co worker along with still wanting Harper back but she doesn’t feel that way for him. A cute sweet must read.

I fell in love with both Harper and Nate I loved reading about them in past novels and for them to have their own novel I loved. I also loved the novels linked although they are standalone you would be best starting with Bailey and the Bad Boy and then Indie and the Brother’s Best Friend and then read Harper and the one-night stand, just some things may not make sense but the actual story can make sense.
From the other books you really wouldn’t know that Harper had a bad childhood I love the fact that we got to know more about her and in detail. I think she is one of my favourite characters to date I mean other than Kenzie but her book isn’t released yet. I loved that Nate tried to put his feelings aside that he wouldn’t hurt his cousin!
I loved the saying screw the consequences as well as how both Harper and Nate just kept calling each other friend. Their relationship was so cute although they went from sex to trying to have a platonic relationship didn’t work to trying to have a relationship. Some of my favourite scenes between these two characters were the ones on the water tower. I loved how they built an open and honest relationship with each other. It was one of my favourites.
I loved the other plot in the story where we got to see Harper connect with her brother again, it was such a sad story and I’m glad they got to reconnect it was so nice for her to be able to have that reconnection with her brother.
I loved seeing all the other characters from the other books! I also can’t wait for book 4 which is going to be Kenzie’s story!
A fantastic story bout harper a young woman with secrets and Nate a young man dealing with guilt and sleepless nights. Full of secrets, a some what off limits romance, heartache, doubts, guilt, passion, attraction, and love. A great story with heart and emotion that I absolutely loved. Readers will fall in love with these wonderful characters and the struggles they have to overcome.

Doesn’t Disappoint! Great Series…
It was ONLY supposed to be ONE NIGHT…
But, how to do you walk away from something that feels so RIGHT!!
Quite simply, YOU Don’t…
Even though you know you should!
At some point, you’ve gotta stop thinking about other people’s wants, needs, & feelings, & You’ve gotta focus on your own.
D@mn the consequences!!
Even though I already owned R. Linda’s “Harper And The One Night Stand (Scandalous Series Book 3),” I agreed to ARC it via Booksprout for her; I recommend this book to others based upon its own merits. All opinions expressed within this review are uniquely my own & freely given!
Until next time… Happy Reading!
This one was my least favorite in the series. For some reason Harper rubbed me the wrong way and it took awhile to warm up to her but she got better in the end.
Third book from this author and I’m still loving the series. Poor Audrey. What that girl has to face and what she’s already gone through is heartbreaking to the 10th degree. I do see a bit of hope for her though and they obvious bond between her and Brody, can’t wait to see if that goes anywhere. As for our two main characters for this book, Nate and Harper, what a journey those two took me on. Their is one of desperate love, both of them fighting against and for their feelings simultaneously, which has got to be exhausting and confusing. I do feel bad for Brody in the end but I can’t help but cheer for Nate and Harper. Plus, something tells me Brody won’t be down, or single, for long. Soo looking forward to reading Kenzie’s book next. Been waiting to hear about her story since book 1. Well done to the author.
She knew she should not but she had a night with her ex boyfriend cousin. Just one problem is that it keeps happening. They keep it a secret so they do not hurt them but can they stop it? See if they can

As far as I really enjoy reading R. Linda Scandalous series this part didn’t keep me so much connected to the main protagonists of the story. The book has a little bit of everybody story. I truly loved reading it more because of the fact that I got to see an update from other characters I loved from previous books. We are also being introduced to the new characters. So as long as I didn’t feel much connection with Harper and Nate this read was a good one to catch up with others and gave me foretaste of what’s going to happen next in the series.
This was the third book on the series. This story had angst, passion, emotions and action. I enjoyed reading Nate and Harper story.

The emotion that flows through the pages of this book will take your breath away. It is fantastic, brilliantly written, emotionally deep and beautiful. The characters are well developed; the plot is consistent and engaging. Highly recommended!

You get drunk and end up in your ex boyfriend’s cousin’s bed. Wow what a hangover cure. And then even though you don’t want to you hit it off with each other. No matter how hard you try you can’t stay away from each other. And then to break it off just to go back for more. It is exciting, suspenseful, hot, emotional and so much more. I was given a review copy by booksprout and voluntarily review it.
I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review. I couldn’t understand how Harper and Nate could not help themselves, well if you wouldn’t start from the beginning than we wouldn’t have an issue. Pretty up as much as you want it was wrong. Brody was Nate’s cousin whom he was close too so she shouldn’t have gone there. And Nate you were wrong dude, he was your cousin there are many fish in the sea look elsewhere.
There is one thing that i can say and that’s everytime i pick up an r Linda book i am never disappointed i can’t believe this is only her third book and her writing is excatly the way i like it, innocent with a fantastic story line and just so easy to read and you fall in love with all the characters.
I must admit i didn’t really like the way these two main characters got together it really annoyed me but that’s what makes me love the book more i was emotionally invested and really felt for Brody. I felt so heartbroken for him and hopefully he gets a happy ending at some point.
I really loved Nate’s and Harpers characters even from earlier books in this series. You wouldn’t have know from the other books that Harper had such a bad upbringing but that’s what i love about these series finding out about the other characters in their own book and the anticipation of waiting for there book.
Nate was funny and your typical guy picking up what girls he can and not expecting to have such a connection with a harper and the fact that Brody was his cousin and Harpers ex boyfriend it was hard to even start this relationship. I loved Nate though he was determined and ready to fight for Harper.
That’s the thing i love about these types of books is riding the waves with these characters and seeing how they all grow.
I loved the fact that jack was back even for a little bit but he just makes me laugh every time he speaks
Another epic book in this series absolutely loved it big 5 stars
Oh and now i am super excited for the next book hopefully comes out soon.
