Can Luke and Rebecca bridge the pain of a decade-long abandonment, in one cold Texas night?
Review"The story itself is stellar and well worth the time to read." - Night Owl Romance.
"I don't know how she does it, but Ms. Long has mastered the art of the short story -- her characters leap off the page and she pulls you into the story so quickly that you are fully invested in the outcome within a matter of pages. I've read many of the 1NightStand and Always a Marine stories and always come back for more. Don't miss ONCE HER MAN, ALWAYS HER MAN -- you won't be sorry!!" -Fresh Fiction
