The One Night

A Novella

By: Meghan Quinn

Narrated by: Teddy Hamilton, Laurie West

From USA Today best-selling author Meghan Quinn comes a romantic comedy novella about the magic and misadventures of a one-night stand.

Recently divorced Cooper Chance knows he’s officially in a rut when his parents take him barhopping in the hope of resuscitating his love life. At first, he’s skeptical. How could a gritty dive bar possibly solve his problems? But then he runs into Nora McHale.

Nora isn’t at the bar looking for love. She’s there to unwind after yet another exhausting day at her bakery. And even if she were hoping to meet someone, it sure wouldn’t be Cooper - her best friend’s ex-husband.

According to the unwritten rules of romance, Cooper and Nora are completely off limits to each other. But after a fun, flirty night at the bar, they can’t ignore the wild attraction between them.

Is this the beginning of something real, or will their passionate night together be their one and only?

Well, I’m hooked! Can’t wait to see where this continues with The Reunion

The way Meghan Quinn develops a story never ceases to amaze me. This is a prequel novella for The Reunion. I find often with prequel novellas you get a small connection to the characters, enough to amp up the excitement of the full length book a few notches. With this story, That One Night, I was full invested in the first chapter, the first few pages if I am honest. Meghan just does such a great job with her story and character development here. I am invested in the minor characters here. I loved this and can’t wait for more in The Reunion.

Teddy Hamilton is perfect for Cooper. He adds this extra grump, and snark, and playfulness that makes me so excited to what is next for Cooper. Laurie West was a new to me narrator. I really liked her voice and what she brought to Nora’s character. She was the perfect balance to Cooper.

What a wild and funny novella

I read somewhere that I should read this before the reunion and I glad I did. Cooper is spending another Friday night with his parents when they express concern that he's not putting himself out there, since his divorce. He makes a joke that leads to his parents going out with him on the spot to be his wing men and help him find a nice girl.

He heads to his local dive bar where they run in Nora. Best friends with his ex, he tries to remind his parents who quickly ditch him there with Nora. They spend the rest of the night having a goid time getting to know each other and Nora gets to see a different side of him that never showed through when he was married to her friend.

Before the night is over they end up at het place unable to resist the attraction they have for one another. But how will they feel in the morning?

Such a great prequel!

Even with a short read, Miss Quinn still managed to get me in all the feels. The backstory to The Reunion’s awesome couple, Cooper and Nora, I absolutely loved seeing the sneak peek into their amazing One Night they spoke of. And the narrators are pure perfection!

Got to hate and a love for a short audio

Well, like above the story was that it was funny. This is the second time I have listened to a Meghan Quinn story what I didn’t like about it was it too short but overall, I enjoyed listening to the audio

Great narrators

Loved that we got this novella for Cooper and Nora from The Reunion. It’s about their one night stand, so pre-The Reunion book.
