"It's kind of depressing, don't you think?" I say as I sit in the kitchen on the counters, swinging my legs, staring at her. "What's depressing?" She asked almost as if it wasn't a question because she didn't want to know. "Growing up. Now we don't play "House", we live house. Now we don't play "School" we pay off our student loans. Now we don't play "Hide and Seek" we hide from our 'Ex's and our ex-best-friends in the grocery stores." I say suddenly interested in my hands as she stares me down with disbelief and disappointment. "Cut the crap." She turned back to chopping what ever vegetable she was chopping. "Now we don't play tag. You play games with me. You're always it." "Cut the crap." She repeated and stopped chopping but didn't look up at me. "Have you ever wondered what happens to the people who are still "it" from childhood games of it" I whisper loud enough for her to hear me. I gaze upon her angry pose as I sit unfazed and waiting for an answer. "Cut. The. Crap." She looks at me and clenches her fist. "Why can't I ever be it? How-" "CUT THE CRAP" She screamed, banging her fist on the cutting board. "NOW WE DON'T PLAY TAG" "STOP" "NOW YOU JUST CHASE ME" "SHUT UP" She left the room. Leaving me alone, sitting on the cabinets wondering how a simple smile could turn into tears running from my face to my hands.

Lacey Martin has built her life around the familiarity of the local bar she manages...a home for her. Independent, headstrong, and content, she keeps her heart tucked away, aside from a few one-night stands. She stays around her close-knit crew, a family of regulars and friends. Her normal routine, however, is shattered by one night that changes everything. When an old friend returns to town, Derek, with a group of friends, everything shifts dramatically in Lacey's world. Among his friends is Natalia, Derek's ex and a woman who will date men or women but finds herself drawn to Lacey. In one evening, both women are caught in an unexpected and powerful connection. This sparks an emotional and intense sensual escapade that forces Lacey to confront her feelings she didn't know existed. As the aftershocks of the intimate encounter ripple into the following days, Lacey finds herself torn between her known life and the magnetic allure of a new, uncharted love. The intense bond with Natalia challenges everything Lacey once believed about herself, including her stance on relationships and her guarded view on love, forcing her to check boxes she's never known. For Natalia, the collision of her past, connected to the fame, fortune, and work she's put in, it's time for her to confront future possibilities. As old wounds and unresolved histories stir within their friend groups, loyalties are tested, and the support network of the bar becomes both a sanctuary and a mirror reflecting the complexities of love, desire, and self-acceptance. "One Night Was All It Took" isn't just romance...it's an exploration of identity, the courage to defy preconceived limits, and that life can change in an instant. Witness the transformative power of one chance meeting that upends expectations and challenges the heart to live more fully and fearlessly. Every moment builds toward a future where love is less about definition, and instead of what we desire. And this is just book one. There are seven.
