4.5 starsI really enjoyed reading One Night with a Quarterback , I just couldn't put it down and I found myself reading it until 01:30 a.m!At the age of 28 Cassie find out that her dad is the coach of the Sante Fe Bobcats and she decides to move to Sante Fe for a few months in order to get to know and spend time with her dad Ken and her half sisters Irene and Mellie.The day before Cassie is meeting her dad she and her best friend Anya go out to a club for one last night of fun.In the club Cassie meet Try, the quarterback of the Sante Fe Bobcats but she doesn't recognize him since he's in disguise and plus Cassie knows nothing about Football.Trey and Cassie hit it off as soon as they see one another and they have a wild night together.Trey wants to keep seeing Cassie but she can't since she promised her dad not to date anyone while she's living in his pool house in order to set a good example for her younger sisters.Cassie is trying so hard to be a part of her dad's family but her dad's wife, Tabitha  is a total bitch and she treats her really bad.  She is so afraid Cassie will have a bad influence on her daughters and even at the ages 16 and 14 she keeps treating them like little kids that needs constant supervising.Cassie's sisters are trying to form a bond with her but it's very hard with their mother breathing down their neck all the time.Her dad is not treating her any nicer, he hardly spends any time with her and he keeps canceling their lunch dates. He says that he wants to know Cassie but actions speak louder than words.As much as Cassie is trying to keep her distance from trey she just can't and she finds herself spending more and more time with him as friends and as lovers.They keep their relationship a secret from Cassie's family and from the press and they are looking for the right moment to break the news.I really enjoyed reading about Cassie and Trey and how they became a couple.Trey was a great hero, he's a big football star but he doesn't act like one, he enjoy simple things in life and he's not afraid to tell Cassie that he wants more than a one night stand. I also loved his sense of humor:“Something wrong with the coffee?” She tasted her own, found it fine. “I’m about to admit something really unmanly. Can you keep this a secret?” She leaned in, a smile tugging at her lips. But she did her best to look serious. “Go for it.” He mirrored her, coming close enough she could feel his breath as he whispered, “I hate coffee.” She laughed at that. The man had an unusual way of making her laugh more than any other man had before. “Is that so? How is that unmanly?” “Guys are supposed to take their coffee black. It’s just an unwritten rule. Some horrible guy code or whatever. I only drink the stuff when I need a quick jolt.”I also enjoyed reading about Trey's friends Stephen and Josiah. They had some LOL moments together and I loved the fact Cassie really got along with Try's friends even without knowing anything about Football.There is a side story about Trey's friends Stephen and his drinking problem, I loved the way his friends were trying to help him and were willing to jeopardize their career in order to help him.Overall I really enjoyed reading One Night with a Quarterback, the banter between Trey and Cassie and also between trey and his friends was super funny. The story was also  full of emotions, especially the scenes between Cassie and her dad and Cassie and her sisters.
