One Knight's Stand

Buffalo Steel Rugby Romance, Book 1

By: Tanvier Peart

Narrated by: Winston James, Mieko Gavia

Three years ago, I decided to have my first one-night stand.

The plan was simple: research how to do it and meet a man at the bar before nerves playing with my guts got the best of me. I wanted to ring in the new year between a stranger's legs. Someone with good hygiene and exceptional tensile strength to take the edge off of studying mechanical engineering.

Then he walked in.

I'd heard whispers about "a night with Knight," tales of toe cramps and matted hair. Antonio is the biggest player and not the man to relieve me of my pent-up tension. His thick thighs, veiny forearms, and charming smile promised a trip to the hospital.

I shouldn't have followed him back to his condo, but I did.

Dinner turned into a kiss, and that kiss led to accidental humping. That's how we ended up in the emergency room. He had a broken nose, and my wig was stuck on his watch.

Three years and a PhD later, Antonio has cemented himself in my life as my best friend. Moving to the city where my sister lives—and where he plays professional rugby—wasn't a big deal at first. But everything changed when we hugged. His cologne surrounded me, and his eyes stayed locked on mine.

Our friendship is platonic, ironclad after the one-night stand gone wrong. So why can't I shake the feeling that we've barely scratched the surface?

One Knight's Stand is a friends-to-lovers rugby romance with spice, shenanigans, and a trip to the ER.

Perfect for romance readers who like: rugby romance; rom-coms; playboy cinnamon roll; awkward FMC; one-night stand gone wrong; friends-to-lovers; STEM rep; his childhood crush; opposites attract; slow burn; hunching and heat.

Pure joy!

Miriam is the character for every quirky girl who never quite fit in. Antonio is the Knight in rugby shorts we all need. Their story is bright and full of hilarious moments! It is rare to find a book with nearly equal parts humor and spice. This was such a book. Their story is believable, warm and endearing. Tanvier Peart is one of my favorite authors!

One Knight = HEA ❤️

A secret, turned friends to lovers! Absolutely loved this adorable story! Miriam was smart and quirky and Antonio accepted her as is!
Enjoyed the narration! Mieko was new to me but I think she brought the quirky bilingual character to life. Will definitely spin the block on this one!
Looking forward to more audiobooks from the author.

Hard wigs no more but still a soft life.

Cute. Funny. Sexy. Spicy. All the things I love in a Rom-Com. Great narration.

A refreshingly true, trauma-free love story…

I loved everything about this story, from the narration, to the plot and the story. I can’t stop listening. It’s a stress reliever after a tough day and I listen to it each time like I don’t know how it will end.
