I got pregnant from a one-night stand with my worst enemy.

Then I walked into the office to find out he was my new boss....

In my defense, I hadn’t planned on having anything to do with Hunter Whittington again.

So what if his jaw can cut glass, his gaze is piercing, and he has a body that haunted my dreams. Our values are contradictory. Our principles are contrasting. Our upbringing couldn’t be more different.

He’s the entitled Oxbridge educated billionaire on track to become the leader of the country. I’m the daughter of a shopkeeper who by sheer determination rose to become a PR specialist.

We hated each other on sight. Couldn’t spend time in the same room without getting into a fight.

Until we find ourselves double-booked...in the same house over Christmas. What’s worse: There’s only one bedroom. And a snowstorm brewing outside. Then the electricity goes out....

Only the chemistry between us takes off. Unable to keep our hands off each other we make a pact...to spend one night together. We wouldn’t speak about it afterward. Not to each other, not to the world. We’d pretend it never happened. Except for the pink line across the test in my hand....

This is Zara and Hunter’s story. A true enemies-to-lovers stand-alone romance. Features a feisty, determined-to-stand-up-for-herself beauty and the grumpy billionaire who’ll tame her and lose his heart in the process. Guaranteed to give you all the feels and the HEA you crave!

Tropes: enemies to lovers, boss-employee, forbidden romance, growly tattooed hero, strong female lead.

The Christmas One Night Stand !!!

Hunter Whittington is used to getting everything he wants - especially now that he is the lead running candidate for Prime Minister . Except one of the things he wants most in life, he can’t have . Zara Chopra is the exact opposite of everything Hunter is . But no matter what he does he can’t get her off of his mind . And there is no lengths that Hunter won’t go through to make sure that Zara is his . So when divine intervention forces the two of them together in a small cabin, with only one bed + a massive snow storm on the way .. Hunter just hopes they can both make it out with exactly what they wanted .

Zara Chopra has worked endlessly to make it in this cut throat world . The daughter of a shopkeeper is now the most sought out PR Specialist in the game . Which is why nothing can get in the way of Zara’s career or in any way tarnish her reputation . Everyone seems to understand that except Mr. Hunter Whittington . The same Hunter that is running for Prime Minister, the same Hunter that has completely different beliefs than her + the same Hunter that she wants more than anything . Everything is starting to blur, lines are becoming easier to cross + one snowy night everything has aligned perfectly for the two of them . Will Zara be able to keep things separate to protect her career + heart or will the desire become too much to deny ?

There is nothing better than forbidden love, forced proximity, one bed, complete with opposites attract . The chemistry between Hunter + Zara is sizzling hot ! So much tension, so much banter, so much back + forth that when it came down to Christmas in the cabin .. it was game on . I’m so excited to see what happens next with Cade with his champagne loving dog, Abbey, and the rest of this crew .

This is book two in the Morally Grey Men series . It can be read as a standalone but I highly recommend reading in series order .

PLEASE CHECK THE TWs !!!

This book was given to me for honest review by Valentine PR + Literary Management .

Good story

Great sex. Not so much suspense but predictable personal love drama. Still a good romance story with an HEA.

The banter

Cute enough. Spice is great. Love the strong female. He falls first. Banter is fun!

I LOVED this book!!!!!!

This book was something else. I loved the constant banter between Hunter and Zara, along with the sensual tenderness. This entire feature is fabulous.

Stupendous, steamy read!!

The Christmas One Night Stand, an Audiobook by L. Steele, was the HUGELY romantic story of Hunter and Zara. She’s a PR professional and she hates Hunter, who is everything she loathes in a person. She gets roped into a deal she doesn’t want.

The verbal barbs between these two were epic!! Loved the word play….and the sizzle beneath it all! Everything about this story was PERFECT!!! The dynamics were incredible! Another 5-star read from this author!!!! Her stories just get better and better!!!!

This Audiobook was masterfully narrated by Shane East and Sasha Mia Khan, who easily captured the attitudes of these characters. I especially loved Sasha’s interpretation of Zara. I laughed more than once over her snarky tone. Shane was superior portraying Hunter, maintaining that hard, coarse attitude. Overall fabulous!!!

Super steamy.

I listened to the audio version of this book narrated by Shane East and Sasha Mia Kahn. I had a real problem with the different volumes at which the book was narrated. If I got it so that I could hear him, she was screeching. If I got it so that she wasn't yelling, I couldn't hear him at all.

If you like to read lots of hot steamy (including BDSM), this book might be right up your alley. It certainly was a little much for me. If you fast forward through all of those scenes, I'm not sure there would be any book left. It started right out of the gate.

This audiobook sadly just wasn't for me.

Thanks to Valentine PR for the gifted copy. All thoughts are my own.

Enemies to Lovers🩷

This was an enjoyable read, I loved all of the other characters popping up and especially loved the push Hunter and Zara’s matchmakers gave them to go to the cabin. A little lie for a good cause…even if it did end with a surprise baby.

Hunter and Zara

The Christmas One Night Stand (Billionaire Christmas Series) is Hunter Whittington and Zara Chopra's enemies-to-lovers romance and a fabulous read that you don't want to miss out on. The writing style is captivating and sets the tone for the story. Oh my, spending Christmas in a cabin, what could possibly happen. Off the charts smexyness, witty banter, a shero heroine, a hero that will make you go weak at the knees, and a secret revelation. Supporting character's including some of my favourite people, along with new characters and breathlessly entertaining moments. Zara and Hunter's story is a must Christmas listen any time of the year.

Sasha Mia Khan, Shane East dual narration was utterly fantastic. Shane east is the epitome of a british accent and I can't get enough. His tone is easy to listen to as I could listen all day. His performance as Hunter was excellently played. Sasha Mia Khan is new narrator for me and the more I listened the more I enjoyed her tone. As her accent is unique and her performance as Zara was well played. Great performances from both narrators.

Loved this one.

Zara and Hunter had chemistry from the beginning. I loved listening to this book. Shane East has narrated a few books I have listen to, and I think he is great. This is the first I believe for me with Sasha Mia Khan and I quickly liked her. Zara and Hunter were a match that I may have thought were unlikely but they made it work and their chemistry is off the charts. I loved how the were together and am fascinated by this world. I will be reading or listening to them all.

Good Book, Poor Cast

I love this author and usually all the narrative, however, this time the female voice ruined it for me. Shane East is always amazing. I wished they would have been able to use the same narrators on the series.
