Almost One Night Stand - by A J Pine (Paperback)

About the Book

"Craving a fresh start, Haddie Martin trades life in Chicago for a teaching gig in the quirky small town of Summertown, IL. But when she stops in a hotel to rest for the night, she locks eyes with a painfully handsome, nameless stranger who would make the perfect one-night stand. Only...she chickens out at the last minute and disappears. Never expecting to see the man again, Haddie leaves her embarrassing exit in the rear view and drives straight to her new home. She arrives only to find out, thanks to her new landlord, that her apartment has been double rented, and of course, the other tenant is none other than Levi Rourke, the gorgeous man Haddie bailed on just the other night. If only an apartment was the only thing they had to share... Little did Haddie know, she'd be working daily with her almost-hookup on the school soccer field-him as the coach for the boys team and her for the girls. The spark they both feel might be more than passion. If Levi wasn't set to leave as soon as the school year is up, maybe it could be love"-- Provided by publisher.

Review Quotes

"Pine (Holding Out for a Cowboy) sparkles in this small-town charmer...It's easy to fall in love with both characters, and Pine makes the most of the forced proximity trope to bring them together. This is a sweet treat." -- Publishers Weekly

"Pine (The Second Chance Garden) brings fun and steaminess to this small-town romance, perfect for readers who also enjoy the work of Jill Shalvis." -- Elizabeth Gabriel, Library Journal
