This delicious night of wild intent becomes so much more. With the type of story it is, we better be getting tons more. I don't want to seem greedy but...I totally am.

One Wild Night is naughty fun with a forever. It's a quick and dirty launch into Hollywood with the leading hot stuff. It's a hall pass. It's everyone's secret fantasy in written word.

Enjoy One Wild Night while I hope for many more.

I am in love with this writing duo; A.L. Jackson and Rebecca Shea make a sensational pair! A sweet and sexy romance that you won't want to put down, and so much more than just one wild night. I can't wait to read more by this duo.

Man, I love super quick audios.

One Wild Night was an okay kind of audio. I mean I liked the two main characters enough.. but I feel like things happened way too freaking quickly. Everything felt so insta and then the one girl, the guys manager, was beyond frustrating.

Okay, so in this book you will meet Kaylee and Paxton. Kaylee used to be a kindergarten teacher at a top prestigious school but she got fired after some paparazzi photos with a celebrity. Enter that said celebrity, Paxton. Now their chemistry was cute but again, so freaking insta.

The drama was a bit predictable but eh, I liked these two. The smut and chemistry was there and the ending was even cute af. Overall, I'd probably dive into the next book if I can find it on my audible romance package.

When A.L. Jackson and Rebecca Shea announced the Hollywood Chronicles books, I knew these were for me. Thank goodness I was not disappointed (not that there was really any chance of that happening with these authors.) One Wild Night is so different from anything I've ever read from A.L. Jackson or Rebecca Shea. It's a fun and flirty romance where a charming Hollywood heartthrob falls for a sweet kindergarten teacher after what was supposed to be just one night of lust.

It's fast paced, light, and sexy. The characters are fantastic and well developed. Paxton Myles and Kaylee Rose Burton's chemistry is intense and instantaneous but it works. I really enjoyed this book. I think One Wild Night is the perfect book to read after you've had your heart ripped out by a highly emotional read (probably one of these two authors' other works) and you need to recharge and reset yourself.

I am really looking forward to reading the second book in the Hollywood Chronicle set. If it's anything like this OWN, I know I'm in for wild and sexy ride.

Kaylee Rose is a kindergarten teacher and is stuck going to a red carpet event that her bestie ghosted her on. It’s the red carpet premiere of her best friends fathers movie he directed.

Enter, Paxton Myles. A Hollywood dreamboat. Star of the movie tonight.
Known as a playboy, he finds himself face to face with one gorgeous yet clearly out of place women that bumps into him. Kaylee.
Instant sparks erupt. Instant attraction.

This book is super short. Novella sized.
But it packs a punch with romance and drama.
Kayla gives herself one night of freedom to do something that she’s never done before.
Have a one-night-stand with a Hollywood star.
And it was fantastic. Until shit hits that fan and she’s blasted all over the news climbing his fence in the morning to grab and Uber looking clearly freshly sexed up.
Her face is all over tv. Her mom sees. Her co-workers see. It’s a hot mess.
Disaster strikes.
With Kaylee losing her job from her “bad image” and Paxton having a manger that’s not so honest, this 134 paperback is full of romance, drama, and an adorable HEA.

Wow!!! This story was a quick, fun read!! I really enjoyed Paxton and Kaylee’s story! Paxton is charming and gets what he wants. Kaylee is the girl next door that doesn’t like attention. Once under Paxton’s spell, so to speak, the story really takes off from there. I can’t recommend this story enough! It will run through all your emotions and to me, that’s what makes a book great!

I really wanted to love this book. And the plot- yes, I absolutely loved it! I have read both authors separately, and enjoyed their writing style. I liked both Kaylee and Pax. I think the pacing of the story was a little too quick for me (as a novella, I had expected this, but it felt a rushed and forced). The other thing that bothered me was that the verb tense changed from chapter to chapter depending on whose point of view.

I really enjoyed the plot, and definitely would consider other books to come in this series.

The guy's pickup lines and opening moves were so creepy and disgusting to me. Any girl should have run away from him but she doesn't because he's hot and there's insta-lust. The whole story was predictable and simple. Also, she has a different personality than she does in the bedroom, so character continuity was lacking.

A short and sweet story. Honestly, I would have enjoyed it more had the story been a little bit longer but it was a fun story I read in an evening. One Wild Night had just enough drama and angst to keep the story going and character development to make you want to see what happened. It was fun and I'm already on to the next one.

"Everything about her is perfect. Not Hollywood perfect, but the kind of perfect a man really likes."

One Wild Night was a fun, light and sexy contemporary romance. I usually don't like the 'girl falling in love with celebrity' plot, however this was done really well. Paxton is a Hollywood actor and a very confident man. Kaylee, is a kindergarten teacher and her nurturing side shows well. When these two meet the sparks fly off of them. The attraction was immediate and there was definitely a case of insta-lust. This didn't really bother me, and I liked that Paxton went for her and didn't stop his chase. The only reason I didn't rate this book higher is because of the length of the novel. It was in my opinion too short for me to fully connect with the characters, and I didn't feel there was enough growth for them as individuals and as a couple. I enjoyed Rebecca an Amy's co-writing, so I am looking forward to the next book in the Hollywood Chronicles.
