Is this love? Is this hate? I'm not sure, but I know it's fate. Your smile, your eyes, oh how they haunt me. I can't get you out of my mind, you obviously don't want me. I wish you were here, I wish you were near. I don't think you like me, in the same way. I am scared of what comes next, I'm not ready for that day. That day when the history begins again. I know you're ignoring me, don't worry, I'm used to it. I'm cool and calm and collected as they may think. On the inside I am exhausted and tired from all your bullshit and lies and things. I thought I loved you, but now I don't know... Yes I do, I will always love you. I can't just get over you as if nothing happened. I used to think of you as my first love, but now it seems more accurate to call you my first heartbreak. You definitely were a great friend... Because that's what we were, just friends, right? I don't think so, we had more than that. Yet now you're ignoring me, my heart has broken back. I can't help but cry myself to sleep every night, losing sleep over you, wondering if you miss me, I hope you do. I hope you feel the same pain as me, because it hurts too much for others to see. Ever since you left, I can't sleep at night, keeping myself busy with homework and self hatred. I try to keep you out of my mind, although it's practically impossible when we had such a magical time. I remember every look you gave me, I remember every touch, the way your voice fluctuated when you were talking about something you loved. I remember every time you grazed my arm perhaps, I still feel the butterflies, I still feel this pain inside my chest when I think of you. I honestly don't know why I can't get you out of my mind, do I miss you? Yes. Why? I have no idea. I never have believed in love at first sight... But I felt that way towards you from the beginning. My original impression of you was, &quot;we should become friends.&quot; But as time progressed, I got too interested in you and your eyes, and I got lost.

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.
