Irresistible Stranger
The man sitting to my left hasn’t taken his eyes off me since I walked into the bar.
He buys me a drink, and I tell him why I’m nursing my self-esteem. He’s relentless in his pursuit. It’s just the kind of attention a girl needs after two bad breakups when my ex walks in.
The same ex who told me he wanted to explore the ocean after I gave him three years of my life.
The seductive stranger says he’ll play the part of my fake boyfriend if I stay with him for the night. He promises to put on a good show for the ex and set the bar for the next man who visits my bed.
So I took him up on his offer.

4 Good Girl Does it For You Stars ⭐
“When it’s good, it’s fucking great.”
Trista has been having a crappy time of late. When she seeks out a little dive bar where one can drink and smoke freely (bring it on) there were no intentions of meeting anyone especially a man like Leo.
The chemistry was sizzling and Leo was chivalrous. It just felt right that this night should end in bed. Well hot damn. Everything between Trista and Leo was sexy and effortless.
“I want to feel you come on me like this,” I tell her, and surge my thigh against her pussy. “Use me to make yourself feel good. Seeing you orgasm like this is going to make me fuck you again.”
I didn't want it to end! This is how you write a one night stand in very little pages. All I can say is that if all hookups with strangers was this good I would have happily remained single, forever!

I love Lucia Franco's writing and I was excited to read her newest novella. This one was a little too short for me and I didn't feel satisfied by the ending

(4/14/24 - did a reread once my paperback came and I enjoyed it just as much!)
This novella had my lady bits TINGLING. Trista and Leo had one of the hottest one night stands I’ve read about. Trista didn’t even know how good sex could be until Leo showed her a few thangs in the bedroom!
I’d love to see a full-length novel on these two after that ending!

If you loved Hush Hush, you are going to devour this mini delight! This book had Lucia all over it with its age gap and super HOT SPICE!!
We meet Trista and Leo, they've both been stood up and strike up a conversation. In comes ex-boyfriend so Leo steps up to make him jealous which leads to so much more. This one night stand novella was fast paced, brilliant and will give you exactly what you NEED!! The spice was chefs kiss and had my juices flowing...mamma mia!
If I had to critic something (and this is being really picky) is that the damn thing was way too short, lacking the connection btw the reader and the characters. It really needs to be a full length book so the connection could blossom because sadly it was just starting to come to fruition as the book ended.
Gah, give it a go, you will love Leo and Trista! Shared POV and only nine chapters long. No epilogue but ends on a high note with I dare say, a potential for more in the future???

Irresistible Stranger by Lucia Franco is a sexy short standalone featuring a sexy one night stand with an age gap twist!
It’s the final straw for Trista, as she sits at the bar and finds she’s been stood up, once again, by the man she’s been seeing. Her dating life is in the garbage. After her breakup from long boyfriend, Tim, nothing seems to be going right for her, dating wise. When Leo sits down next to her, she’s captivated, but her wall was put in place long ago, and she won’t budge because a drop dead gorgeous man just sat next to her…. That is, until her ex, Tim, walks into the bar with another woman… Trista isn’t the type of woman that takes part in one night stands, but there’s always an exception to a rule.. And she may be willing to bend the rules for Leo. I mean, it’s just one night…. Right?
After reading nothing but dark romance with loads of tragedy and trauma this week, I decided to switch up to something with a little more swoon. I’ve had Irresistible Stranger by Lucia Franco on my kindle for a few days now, and holy hell, I wish I would have read this book sooner! No lie, my eyes were wide the whole damn time!!!
If you’re looking to heat up your kindle with a spicy one night stand, this is the novella you should immediately run to! Trista and Leo are hands down the hottest couple of 2024, so far!! I’m starting to really love Age Gap Romances!
Trista and Leo’s one night stand had me wanting more and more and more! And that’s why I, sadly, dropped a star on my rating. I wasn’t ready to see the book close on these two! It was a great read, but I wanted more!

This was on spicy novella and I am here for it!
Trista is having a bad day after being stood up by the guy she was dating, so she decides to drown her sorrows at a local bar, where she meets Leo, a charming business man, only in town for a few days. What starts with an innocent drink soon leads to the two of them not being able to keep their hands off each other!
Y'all the chemistry between Trista and Leo was palatable! Lucia knows how to write spice and tension that just oozes from the characters! Was a super quick read, but loved it from start to finish and there is so many possibilities of where she could take these characters!
If you are looking for a super spicy quick hit, you will definitely want to check this one out!

I Give this Book a 3.5/5 Star Rating, Listing as a Solid 3.
HEA(?): No.
Cliffhanger(?): No.
**But ending could lead to an actual novel or a series of short reads (if the author is willing to do it)
Relationship Type: One Night Stand > MF
Heat: 3/5
Romance: 3/5
Pacing: Stagnant yet Brisk.
Suspense: 1-1.5/5
Drama: 1.5/5
This was a pretty quick read, I did get bored with a scene and sex scene or two it just felt…not unique? Ya know the set up - the same scene every time that you could practically predict exactly how the scene was going to go almost word for word?
It’s a good quick read but you’re not missing anything, if this was a prequel this book probably would’ve been rated higher cause than that would’ve led to anticipation for another book.
It would be great if there will be either another book that’s bigger with this pair or a series of shorts to HEA, great marketing standpoint and I’d total buy them honestly.
I loved the age gap and I felt like this One Night Stand just wasn’t enough.

Disclaimer- Received as an ARC. Review is not biased due to this. Lucia just kicks ass as a writer.
Some of yall are gonna be mad over what a tease this story is. Don't come to the table starving because you're only getting an appetizer (and hopefully a perfect prequel to a future novel?!?!)
Trista is having a pretty shitty day when she meets a stranger at the bar. Leo is what fantasies are made of, and while most one night stands end in a lot of regrets, this one is filled with possibilities.
(Lucia I know I am harassing you over Noah and Ivy, but girrrrrrrrrrrrrl... )
Leo not only shows how she should be worshipped in the bedroom, but he is just what she needed to see her own worth.
I am totally looking forward to seeing Trista kicking ass in the future, and she is not the type of girl Leo is just going to be able to forget. *Holds up Treo4ever sign*
Leo, I am gonna need you to come back and get your girl.

✍️ Author: Lucia Franco
✨ Rating: 4/5 ⭐️
🌶️ Spice: 4/5 🥵
💕 Tropes/Vibes: Fake Relationship, Age Gap, One Night Stand
This one’s bitter sweet. The chemistry between Leo and Trista was through the roof. And the fact that its so short and it just ends its the bitter part.
I loved it. I loved how they met, how confident Leo was, how sassy Trista was. I loved the fake relationship part and how easy it was for them to pretend. The spice was immaculate. I hate when characters smoke and for the most part I hated it here but them sharing a cigarette was also so hot. 🤣 I do have to admit that it was hard for me to imagine the characters. I just couldn’t picture them and that made it a little hard to get through.
THE AGE GAP! My God! I just LOVE a true age gap and this definitely was it. Everything about the last pages had me dreading that it was ending. I hope the author decides to give their story a chance because I can definitely see how it could continue.

This was a quick and spicy novella.
After Trista’s boyfriend of three years dumps her suddenly six months ago, and then the guy she’s causally been seeing the last two months stands her up for the second time Trista is feeling pretty low about herself. She goes to the bar planning to meet up with her friend and drown her sorrows. However she ends up sitting next to Leo, and the two are immediately drawn to each other.
When someone from her past walks into the bar, Leo says to just go along with him. He then introduces himself as Trista’s boyfriend.
Leo has ten hours before his flight leaves and he wants to spend them all with Trista. They enjoy each other, and they have lots of spicy time during his one last night in the city.
I hope we get to see more of Trista and Leo.

This novella was HOTTTT 🔥 in just 9 chapters, Lucia created explosive chemistry between two characters who had just met. Leo and Trista meet in a bar and agree to spend one night together… no strings attached.
From the second they met, their pull to one another was magnetic. And, as always, Lucia deliverrreeeddd on the smut 🔥🥵 I absolutely devoured this novella and I still want more. I’m ✨manifesting✨ that this is not our last time seeing Leo and Trista together!!

This read was chef’s kiss 💋
It’s hands down the best short story I have read. There is so much chemistry, feelings, and passion and although only short, the story packs a punch.
Trista has been stood up and ends up sitting next to Leo at a bar, and the rest is history. Their flirting gave me butterflies and I sat with a huge smile on my face while reading,
Trista and Leo were off the charts! The steam was AMAZING, Leo showing her just what a man can do and make her feel, I melted.
I was sucked into this read and forgot it was a short story. And I may have read it more than once ☺️.
Trista and Leo set my Kindle on fire and I only hope Lucia gives us more from the couple 🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞.
ARC received for an honest opinion.

All smexy stuff and I'm here for it, that age gap though had my mouth ON THE FLOOR!! I don't know if there's a part 2 to this or another book involving Trista & Leo, but if there is I want it.
Also, Tim deserves to be jealous, f him lol.
[This is my opinion, that being said, these are my ratings.]
🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️ out of 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️ (5/5) spice rating because WOW. This book had nothing but spice and I have no problem with that.
I really don't want to overall rate this book because in my opinion, it has no plot and was just about two [irresistible] strangers who had ✨chemistry✨ from the get go and then went their separate ways after the most amazing one night stand.
HOWEVER, if I truly had to rate it, it'd be ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ out of ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (4/5)

“Looks like you’re all mine."
Irresistible Stranger is a hot steamy snack of a story. Trista meets Leo at a bar and they share instant chemistry. Trista has just been dumped by her boyfriend and is ready for a night out of fun. This story was a fast and wild ride. I feel like I need a cold shower and a cigarette after reading this and I don't even smoke. Lucia Franco never missed a beat in writing this. I love her writing and she always has me wanting more of her characters. The only thing missing from this story is more of Trista and Leo! I seriously need a full story for them. I ate this book up and I need more!

This was a quick steamy read and I really enjoyed it. The only reason it’s getting a 4 star rating is because I wanted more of Trista and Leo.
Trista ends up at a bar after being stood up and meets Leo on a chance encounter. Leo is completely enamored by Trista and strikes up a conversation with her. After a while her ex walks in, the one who wanted to see what other woman were out there and Leo pretends to be her boyfriend. They end up having a hot one night stand and go one their way.
Again, I enjoyed this book and the chemistry between the main characters in such a short time, it was well written. This was my first book by Lucia and I plan on reading more by her.

Irresistible Stranger is a steamy, passionate ONS novella that I giddily devoured. The writing was excellent as always. This story was such a pleasurable read and I loved this quick and steamy story. Trista and Leo have an instant attraction, explosive chemistry and a soul deep connection. This one night stand needs to be more. I didn’t get enough time with this intriguing couple and I need more. I wanted to scream when I read the words The end. I need more Trista and Leo! I hope this author has plans for this couple in the near future. You need to read this book!

“For what it’s worth, I’m glad he stood you up. It means I get to look at you. At least I’ll appreciate it.”
A chance encounter that leads to explosive chemistry. Definitely the right person at the right time. This may have a been short but it is perfect. From now on if Lucia writes it, just put it directly into my veins. JFC… this can’t be the end of Leo & Trista. I need their entire future and I need it like yesterday. This short was too good and now I’m obsessed!!!
“Tonight is a night of firsts for me. Let’s see what you got, hotshot.”
“I hope I run into you again.”
