Luke Dexter signs up with 1NightStand to show his men what you should try to do in order to reconnect with with civilian life. When Madame Eve sends him a text message to tell him what his date would be wearing and that this was his second chance, he wasn't sure what to think. But when he spies the woman in green at the bar, he's transported back eleven years to high school and the love of his life, Rebecca Rainier.
Rebecca agreed to her 1NightStand date after her business partner convinced her it would be good for business. But the last person she expected was Luke. She had loved him with ever fiber of her being and was crushed when he enlisted in the Marines, took his GED and left their small Texas town. While she had always held out an ounce of hope that he would come back home for her, she was finally ready to try and move on. But seeing Luke drags her right back to when she was eighteen.
Luke and Becca both still love the other, but Luke knows he needs to do whatever he can to make up for the way he ended things. Becca has always used Luke as the measuring stick she held against every other man she's dated, only to have them not measure up. But it's funny how a heart felt "I'm sorry" can change everything.
This was a short emotional read, but you are immediately drawn into the story and want these two to work through their issues. If you have a few minutes and want to fill it, this is a good one to pick up.
