About this listen
Five years ago, my pride got in the way of love. Now, I’m about to swallow it.
Willow:
He was my first crush, my first love, and my first time.
He’s also the brother of my arch-enemy.
When he enlisted in the marines, he promised he’d be back soon.
He lied.
Now he’s back, and he’s wondering why the gorgeous kid, who looks a lot like him, is calling me mamma.
Ethan:
We agreed it was forever, but she never wrote me back.
My sister hates her, but she hates everyone.
When I lay my eyes on her, it’s as if nothing has changed.
She’s still fiercely independent and packs a mean right hook.
But now there’s a kid involved, it’s time to put our games aside.
And this time, I’m playing for keeps.
You Only Love Once is a hot romcom with lashings of banter, fun, and all the feels. It is recommended for listeners over the age of 18 due to adult content and language.

Story
I had a plan to escape the friend zone. Step one: sneak into Reed’s room. Step two: sleep with him. But when the lights turned on, it wasn’t familiar blue eyes I saw. These were dark, angry, and full of demons. And they belonged to Reed’s much-older brother. Four years later, Nash Prescott is no longer the help’s angry son. I’m no longer the town’s prized princess. At 22, I’m broke, in need of a job. At 32, he’s a billionaire, in need of revenge.

It was supposed to be the best day of my life. But the second I got up, things started to fall apart. The kitchen just caught on fire. Flowers were from a funeral. My bride-to-be just had an allergic reaction, leaving by ambulance. Oh, and my ex-girlfriend just walked into the church. They say you have to see the signs when they are right in front of you. Maybe she was just mine to have.

It was supposed to be a harmless kiss at a lavish debutante ball. A clandestine moment with a handsome stranger. But unlike his namesake, my Romeo isn’t driven by love. He’s fueled by revenge. To him, I’m a chess piece. Leverage. His rival’s betrothed. To me, he is a man deserving of poison. A dark prince I refuse to marry. He thinks I’ll accept my fate. Well, I plan to rewrite it. And in my story, Juliet doesn’t die. But Romeo? He perishes.

Story
Emmett Lasker is impossible to work for. He might be model handsome and stupidly wealthy, but he also has it out for me. He’s given me more last-minute and weekend requests than anyone else, ruining any plans I make. I should quit. And I will. Just as soon as I hit my two-year anniversary and earn out my signing bonus. But after a particularly awful day at work, a breakup (via text!), and my computer crashing, I’ve had enough! So at 11:59 Friday night, I barge into Emmett’s office to tell him what I really think of him. Only, that’s not what happens. AT ALL.

Five hockey players, a cabin in the woods...and little old me, Winnie Berlin. Sounds like the start of a fantasy, right? But it's not. It's my reality. It all started when I got lost in the middle of the Canadian Rockies. A wicked thunderstorm sent my car mud sliding into a ditch, and for a girl whose survival skills involve finding the nearest Starbucks, I was in deep trouble. Forced to abandon my car in search of help, I stumbled upon a cabin in the middle of nowhere.

From a poor underground street fighter, I rose to fame as the world heavyweight boxing champion. No one knew I was also a monster who hunted in the shadows. Trapped in the mafia until my debts were paid. A simple deal held my freedom—unify my belts. It seemed simple until an enchanting British firecracker landed on my lap, knocking me sideways. Wanting her was dangerous for us both, but I took her anyway. Leaving me with the choice, fight for my freedom or hers. When the truth is unmasked, could she still love me? Would love be enough to battle our demons and come out on top?

Once I saw Marnie Long, a sassy, sultry, charismatic older woman in a bar, I couldn’t peel my eyes off her. I wanted her. At least, for one night. I’m way too busy with my career these days for anything more. As it turned out, after recently getting burned, Marnie was on the same page as me—all she wanted was one night of fun. I was happy to be of service. What I didn’t expect during our night together, however, was how deeply we connected. Also, how much I was dying to see her again the next morning.

Funny, steamy, second chance romance
Starting out as a heartbreaking story of an unexpected pregnancy, and miscommunication that tears two people apart, the story morphs into a funny, flirty, second chance romance. Nearly six years after Ethan impulsively joined the military, and Willow was left pregnant and alone at eighteen, not even having a chance to tell him about their baby on the way, Ethan is back in town and sparks fly as they run into each other again. But he doesn’t know about their now five year old daughter, and since he thinks she cheated on him when she went to college (thanks to his horrible sister’s mistaken assumptions), he doesn’t make the connection that her daughter is his. Their interactions are pretty funny, both angry at each other, but equally attracted to each other in equal measure. But as things come to light, and truths are finally revealed, their romance rekindles. She keeps him on his toes, not letting him get away with anything, and he enjoys poking the bear, as it were, just to get a rise out of her. Their back and forth both before and after revelations is always quick and funny. We also get to see the sweet relationship develop between Ethan and his daughter Jessica, which is a bonus. Overall, it’s sweet and funny, and just the right amount of steamy.
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
