Publisher's Summary

Manning

As captain of the Dallas Oilers, I was their leader on and off the ice. From the outside, it looked like I had the perfect life. I didn’t. I was married to a woman who refused to give me a divorce. All she wanted was the status title, and all I wanted was to be set free.

It was supposed to be just another event, except it took a turn I didn’t see coming.

Evelyn

Attending my best friend’s bachelorette party isn’t something I was looking forward to, but it’s strange what a couple of glasses of wine will do.

It was one night, and I thought I would never see him again - especially not coming face-to-face with him and his wife while picking up my nephew from hockey practice.

Loved it

Manning is the Captain of his Hockey team. He has a beautiful wife, and a son who is the light of his world. Everything is perfect, from the outside. But Manning is drowning and he doesn’t even know it. Not until he sees Evelyn in a restaurant.

Evelyn is like air for his starved lungs. Once he looks at her he can’t look away. He forgets about his farce of a marriage, and his beautiful, surgically-modified wife who cheats on him and refuses to give him a divorce. All he sees Evelyn.

It was only supposed to be one night, but when you’re meant to be with someone, fate steps in.

I loved this book. I loved the angst. I love that Evelyn was bothered by the fact that he was still married and I’m glad she was strong enough to put her foot down and walk away. But I also loved that Manning was man enough to fight for her.

Wonderful!

This has got to be one of the best, if not the best, book of this entire extended series. Wonderful characters, just enough drama and hardships and a narrators who are quickly becoming my favourite duet.

Chance meetings

The story Will make you laugh out loud cry and it’s just a all-around good storyline and a great love story that true love does exist

So good!

Connor and Ava deliver a great love story. These 2 narrators are my favorite! The story was soooooo good.

Team captain finally moves on ending a terrible marriage

Team captain Manning has been boring, bitter, and sad due to his horrible bitchy wife but strangely allows her to bully him into remaining married while she cheats. Yes she threatens to run off with the kid but really… she is such a wretch of a wife he could easily have divorced. Instead he is miserable which could not have been good for his young son and celebrate for 5 years instead of taking revenge with random puck bunnies. Suddenly he meets “the one” & has a one night stand with more sex than is physically believable and finally decides to extricate himself finally decides to extricate himself from the misery of his wife. His unsuspecting one night stand is a decent woman who has had a bit much to drink and has been dealing with her own horrible break up from a cheating long time lover. Small world - she is his financial advisor’s daughter. Getting past the coincidences and drawn out drama and occasional ill advised sex prior to the divorce papers being signed, you have to route for the well deserved pair. The story dragged some but it was easy to see the couple would eventually get the HEA they deserved after dealing with their previous lovers. The decent narration keeps the story moving.

Loved it - Great story and great narration

This is the third in the latest series from Natasha Madison and I could not wait to dive in to it. The writing was strong with characters that you cannot help but fall for and I was riveted from the first to the last chapter in the story that Ms. Madison wove.

Great narration from Ava Lucas and Connor Crais brought the story to life for me.

Only One Night is Manning and Evelyn’s story it was an entertaining read that ticked all the boxes for me. Trapped in a marriage that he has been trying to escape for four years, all it takes is one night to change the course of Manning’s life. From the first moment they meet the connection between Manning and Evelyn is strong.

However Evelyn is shocked when she learns who he is and that he is technically married. The anger, betrayal and guilt that Evelyn felt had my heart breaking for her. The struggles that both Manning and Evelyn go through as they try to deal with the attraction that sizzles was at times emotional.

I’m not a fan of cheating and although there are some decidedly grey areas in this book, I really didn’t feel as though Manning was cheating. He has been estranged from Murielle for years and has only stayed in the same house because of his son Jaxon.

I loved the relationship that he has with his son who just about melted my heart and the fact that his teammates all had his back was wonderful. I loved catching up with the other couples and am excited to see what Ms.Madison has in store for this series.

Love Manning!!

Ever since book 1, I was ready for Manning’s. I saw some negative comments about his cheating on here. Give me a break! He hadn’t been with his hoe wife for 4 years. She constantly cheated in his house and in front of him. Manning and Evelyn were adorable. I loved her! Can’t wait to hear Nicco and Becca’s story. It’s rare I make it this far in a series. I usually get bored

I love this author but...

Cheating is not cool. I love Miss Natasha's writing and I like most of her stories. This one was hard for me to swallow. Spoiler: I read the review before I purchased and the review said the h was strong enough to walk away after she found out that he’s married( incorrect review). Instead she slept with him again instead of doing the right thing . Every time he went to see the h, he had to lie to his wife and that's to me, scream cheating. He even had her under another name in his contact. The h oh wow! She was the other woman. So sad that miss Natasha wrote her so weak and pathetic. If the h waited until he is divorce or live under a different roof, I would give this 5 stars and will definitely recommend. Regardless of loveless marriage, there is no excuse of not getting a divorce. Because he was still married, i had a hard time connecting with H and h, Especially when they had sex again. I wanted to throw up. I found both MCs are weak which i don't usually see from this author other stories. After all the tension and heartbreak from the wife, she got away and the author pretty much wrote her off quickly. This was also hard for me to swallow.

Wonderful Story

Natasha always writes such amazing stories that capture your heart!

I love all these characters and their stories are so wonderful!!

Manning kinda broke my heart with all that he had to go through to get his HEA.
But he deserves it so much!!

I can't wait to read the next one in this series.

Beautiful love story

This is the best one in the series. Characters are fully developed. The narrators are good.
