You find out that the man you've been dating is sleeping with his secretary. You've become a cliché. What's your next step? That is, aside of from the obvious first step of calling your best friend and get rip roaring drunk.Step one: Get drunk... checkStep two: Take some time off. Get away from the family. You love your big brothers, but the horsemen of the apocalypse cannot know what happened just yet. checkStep three: Allow your best friend to convince you that what you really need is a hot meaningless one-night stand with a stranger. checkStep four: Walk away, no strings attached, now waiting for a phone call and definitely no expectations.Well, I guess three out of four isn't bad. However, when you add three incredibly hot, overbearing older brothers, also known as three of the four horsemen of the apocalypse and a one-night stand that is anything but, you have the makings for a recipe for disaster.I am nothing if not a sucker for a story with a hot alpha male and independent heroine that know how to kick butt. So it should come to no surprise that I loved Amanda and Joe. I have to admit to having my doubts during that first chapter. Amanda came across as whiny and quite a defeatist, the complete opposite of what I like in my heroines. Luckily though, this turns out to be an abnormality for Amanda. Having grown up with three older brothers, a girl learns how to take care of herself and this sexy, Harley driving, ex sniper is the perfect rebound relationship for Amanda.With likeable secondary characters, a great storyline and incredibly steamy scenes, One Night Stand is a must not miss. Ms. Parker may be new to the scene but I can guarantee we'll be seeing a lot more from her.
