A spicy quick Halloween novella. Was it all a dream? What she wanted to happen in her head? Her ex-husband called her crazy and now she was beginning to believe it herself…maybe just maybe it wasn’t and the man in the skeleton mask was real 💀😈
There’s a man standing on my neighbor’s roof, and he’s staring at me. I want to lick him. ^ Pages 10/11.
If sex and anonymous are a thing people like I'd recommend, but I was hoping for a little more plot rather than let's see how many times I can fuck you.
Although he did call her Little Devil, wore a mask and he did a bit of primal play so bonus points.
He's stood on her neighbours roof, she's horny af. He breaks in that night and fucks her without protection literally everywhere in her house. She wakes up and is like "It was a dream?" but it wasn't. The end.
“I hope you enjoy Halloween, Little Devil. Because I’m about to make you scream.”

Only One Night takes you out of your comfort zone to indulge in your deepest, darkest fantasy unapologetically for Halloween night, if only for the one night. The spice is totally on point, no names and no commitment, dirty and risky and pushing boundaries. Filled with adrenaline, excitement and fear, you're pulled into the fantasy with the constant feeling that you’re being watched. But it goes a step further, making you question reality, wondering what actually happened and if your mind is playing tricks on you. Nothing makes sense, nothing gets resolved. With so many unanswered questions, you're left to draw your own conclusions. My thoughts are still spinning after reading this and I only wish it was longer to explore this unique story even more.
Tropes: dark thriller, one night stand, suspense, spicy, no HEA
She saw a man on her neighbor’s roof. And she seemed to like it. Her body comes to life under his gaze. All she can think about is the way this man would feel against her skin. Until their connection snaps, and suddenly he’s gone. In her sleepy neighborhood, everything is exactly how it should be as she settles in on this quiet Halloween. Then, in the dead of night, he’s there in her home. Tempting her with his touch, refusing to tell her his name. Only one night—that’s all he offers. And that’s all she’s willing to give. When she wakes up the next morning, she’s not surprised he’s already gone. But nothing about the night makes sense, and with no evidence of it ever happening, she’s left questioning everything.
If you're looking for a novella with the perfect amount of spice, here it is. The author leaves character descriptions open to interpretation. Be whoever you want and be with whoever you want. There is spice a plenty but also a little mystery element. It is the perfect adult treat for Halloween. This is my honest opinion, freely given.
What the hell did I just read?! This was nothing like I had read before. The novella is written all from the FMC’s POV. Both the MMC and FMC are basically description less and nameless (with only a few minor details given) so you can picture them however you want. Also - this does NOT have a HEA so don’t go in expecting one!
The FMC lives alone and is hanging out in her backyard on Halloween afternoon when she spots a man staring at her from her neighbors roof. She’s freaked out but also intrigued. Surprise surprise - same man ends up in her bed when he breaks into her house that night. He promises her one night of anything she would want and then he’ll be gone by morning.
I can’t say what all happens in the book but my mind was blown. I literally said out loud “THAT’S HOW IT ENDS?!?” and my dog stared at me. I then promptly slid into A.R. Rose’s DMs and said we needed another 🤣😭
This is so good and y’all need to add to your spooky season TBR!
Short and spicy Halloween novella. This was the first book I’ve ever read where both that FMC and the MMC are nameless and description less. It put me in mind of the “y/n” Wattpad books. But it worked for this books it was spicy and an easy quick read! I stayed up way past my bedtime to binge this book in one sitting. Though I do wish there was more explanation to what happened and just more in general, I enjoyed it for what it was! Definitely would read more by this author!
This was a fun and crazy short read. If you’re looking for spice, this one s a good book for you! This book is meant to get your imagination going, and it succeeds! The FMC is starting over after divorcing her cheat ex. Her imagination gets going when she spies a man watching her. The MMC catching the neighbor swimming in her see through bra and panties and let’s just say he likes the invitation. This book has a few unexpected twists and turns and it was extremely hot 4 Stars 4 Spice!
I loved this novella. The author was so creative in her story. Craving to be with another man and thinking you just might be crazy for what you thought happened. It is Halloween and she watched scary movie. It pulled me in and had me craving for more. Spicy goodness for feeling and craving another in your bed. I wanted so much more!
Only one night 3.75⭐️ it made me feel crazy till the end. Lol.
Things I want to remember..
My ex-husband and I were together for over fourteen years when he went and stuck his dick in his co-worker, throwing away everything we’d built. the backyard is still my favorite thing about the house. It has a beautiful swimming pool and built-in jacuzzi, three rows of raised garden beds, and two large trees that were already prepped for a hammock. Take a dip in the pool after gardening. There’s a man standing on my neighbor’s roof, and he’s staring at me. Watching a movie and the doorbell rings. No one is there. Woke up from my sleep to a man straddling me. “We don’t need to exchange names, baby girl. For only one night, you’re mine, and I’m yours. I’ll leave before morning and you’ll never see me again, but for tonight, I’m going to fulfill your every fantasy. Would you like that?”“You have a thirty-second head start to run and hide. When I find you—and make no mistake, I will find you—I’m going to bury my cock so deep inside you, you’ll be lucky if you can walk come morning.”“Until my brother came, right, Little Devil?” He slows into a torturous rhythm, taking his time as he pulls himself out until just the tip remains inside me, then pushes in slowly. Over and over. “Fuck. I know I said one night, but maybe if you’re really lucky, next time it’ll be both of us who show up. Then you can show us how you play with this pretty pussy.” Pushes me in the pool. “Alright then, let’s see how many times I can fuck you before you pass out, Little Devil.” Everything was pristine when I woke up. My pajama buttons weren’t ripped off. Mrs Johnson didn’t have workers on her roof yesterday. Watching the news.. “The pattern prior to the burglaries appears to be the same, as eyewitnesses recount seeing two men on top of their neighbors' roofs days earlier—” sketch looks just like him. There he is, leaning against the pole of the streetlight as if he doesn’t have a single care in the world. With his arms crossed over his chest and a smirk on his painfully handsome face, he stands there in a fitted jacket, t-shirt, and jeans, looking far too good for an alleged criminal. Hand scribbled note, next time it’ll be both of us.

WOW!! My first read by A.R. Rose, and trust me, there will be a lot more!! So creative! The author wrote in the style where YOU are the lead character! The other characters can be whomever you imagine. Limited, to no descriptions, picture them as you want.
The leading woman is considered a "good" girl, never taking chances, reliable, safe. Until one day she spots a man watching her, enjoying what he sees, and instead of being creeped out she's ignited! She finds herself not only thinking things she never thought she would, but acting on them as well. Suddenly, he's gone, and she's left to her own fantasies.
The same night, the same man shows up in her house in the middle of the night! He's masked, won't reveal his name, but she knows it's HIM! She should scream, she should be terrified, but somehow she's not. She finds that she wants him there! She wants to be touched by him, she'll follow his lead, do what he wants. He takes her on a crazy, sexual ride all night long. Never willing to reveal his name, but he reveals SO much more!
When she awakens in the morning, he's gone, vanished. She's not surprised by that, but she is surprised to find no evidence of his existence in her home! Was it a dream? Is she losing her mind?
Great read! Especially for every "girl" girl who wishes they were a little bad, like me.
📚📚📚 This one was seriously so good and so spicy right away which I loved. This gives off the best vibes for spooky season and still has my brain thinking was it a dream or was it real too? Was she crazy like her ex said? Whatever that night was, it was all the spice 🔥😍 This book will definitely feed your dark desires for Halloween nights! I definitely will be rereading this one every year from now on! I highly recommend adding this one to your tbr!

Thank you so much for sending me a copy for an honest review in my own words.
This book will instantly get you ready for Halloween. We meet our heroine when she decides to have an intimate moment alone outside, who the author does not give us any identifying information about her, so we are able to make our own assumptions. She feels on edge and notices an insanely attractive man on the roof next door.
Later in the night that man is in her bedroom and ready to do all of her dirtiest fantasies. And what a night they have together. A.R. Rose gives us her spiciest writing yet with these two!
And let’s not forget the twist at the end, which I was not expecting!!
There is a scene in there that could potentially give us a follow up book, if the author chooses to write it, that could prove to be even spicier!
With Only One Night, new-to-me author A.R. Rose has written a tantalizing novella that features a lonely FMC and a mystery MMC who may or may not fulfill her dark fantasies for only one night on Halloween (with little resistance from her, I might add). The nameless narrator, who may or may not be unreliable, struggles to distinguish between fantasy and reality until the end of the story, when she and the reader are forced to confront what's real.
While I wish that this novella were a little longer and included a few more details about the characters (maybe even the MMC's POV), Only One Night is a well-written story that sets the mood for Halloween, if only because it demonstrates how the imagination can be scarier than real life. I would love to read a follow-up novella to see what happens to the FMC next.
This novelette is the perfect little spicy and thrilling read for October. Read in under an hour, there were many times I stopped to read sections allowed to my friends and husband. The dirty talk is A+ and the ending is A++! I love how we are left literally hanging and as confused as our mysterious FMC.
Tropes and content warnings (which might act as a reading guide for some and as spoilers for others include): •masked play (yum) •light stalking (he watches her then breaks into her house and finds her in bed) •dub-con (red flags everywhere but we aren’t saying no… but he didn’t ask and he BROKE IN) •light, light primal (welp, I can’t do that anymore if I wanted since I had a neck fusion so no hard hair pulling for me. Damn.) •dominating MMC (yes, please!) •twisty ending (WTF is going on here?!?! Are we going crazy?! Have we been crazy?! )
🤪 😜 😝

Wow…. That was so much better than I could have imagined!
First of all, the spice levels were immaculate. It was well written, well planned, and just fun. Plus there were so many different types of spice scenes, they weren’t all the same but rewritten - they were unique to each other.
Secondly, I thought it would just be a plot light spicy novella. Something to just knock back and be pure smut. But there was actual - good - plot to it! In the second half I was actually at the edge of my seat, eager to know what would happen next. I thought it was such an easy, beneficial element that just elevated the quality.
Overall, this is a really spicy and fun novella that is perfect for Halloween!!!
This was a trip. Despite reading it a couple of months ago, I am still thinking about it and its twistedness... I honestly questioned my own sanity while reading this—wanting to know what was real, what was fake, what was in her head, and what she was purposefully being led to believe. And I think the most frustrating part for me was that it ended on a cliffhanger and I'm still not sure what to believe about it all.
I went into it knowing it was a novella, but came out of it feeling like it needed more. I feel a bit lost, which isn't my favorite feeling coming out of a quick read.
That said, for those of you who love the spooky, paranormal-esque vibes, this is a fantastic quick read you won't be able to put down.
A.R. Rose grabbed my heart strings and took off running with this one. I am chasing for more because this short Novella is not enough. I absolutely devoured this story and loved every single second of it!!
After a day of lounging poolside watching the neighbors roof workers watch her she was hot and bothered. 🥵 When the sun goes down she finds the mystery man from the roof broke into her home and is now standing over her. She is yet again hot and bothered and longing to see what mystery man does next. Will one might be enough for these two or will they both beg for more? Is mystery man real or was it just a dream? What is going on in their heads?
*4.5⭐️ The FMC and MMC are not named. You as the reader can imagine whomever you want because this is your fantasy and your dreams come true in only one night. She lives by herself and is freshly divorced. Her goal is to just enjoy the quiet and have the best sex of her life. I have to say, I knew this was gonna be hot and sexy but damn this was hot and sexy! It is very short and I think at one point I was not sure if this was real or not and if I am reading this or living this… Go in blind and just enjoy what is headed your way!
Um, I’m so intrigued & in love with this short story. I’m left with so many questions at the end, but sometimes that’s not always a bad thing and made the ending so much better in my opinion!!
The spice, was SPICING!!!!! I was drooling over my kindle if you believe that’s possible. I love the fact it was so incredibly different in the way that the FMC & MMC didn’t have a name, nor descriptions. How the author left it completely up to your imagination is something I’ve never got to read before and I liked it way more than I thought I would & made it so easy to see myself as the FMC!!
This was a great novella that was short and had the spice to it. There are no names so you can imagine that it was you. Which I thought was what!? But when I read it I was like okay. I get it. The MFC is at home swimming when she notices a guy on her neighbor's roof. Then he disappears only to come back later. He breaks into her house that same night. No names are exchanged and he tells her that they will only have the one night together. He also tells her that maybe next time he would bring his brother too. When she wakes the next morning sore and achy she starts to wonder if she imagined the whole thing. I loved this read.
WOW! and WHAT? That’s what I said when I finished the Halloween novella, “Only One Night” by A.R. Rose. This story is completely unexpected and although I usually expect my romance to end with an HEA, this was a short and quick dark romance that ended perfectly for the spicy plot. Throughout the story, both characters remained nameless and description less, but this one,mysterious, sexy and spicy night was simply too short!! I needed more A.R Rose!!! Pick this up if you want a kinky and spicy little Halloween novella!
Thank you @authorarrose for the #gifted physical copy. All opinions are my own.
You’re wording in the garden and decide to peel off your clothes to take a quick dip in your pool, you pull yourself up on the ledge to allow the warm sun to kiss your body. A feeling of not being alone creeps in… You look around and notice a gorgeous, shirtless man working on your neighbors roof watching you. Feeling naughty you lean back and decide to give him a little show, he’s locked in… that is until he’s interrupted by a coworker and disappears. As you head to bed that evening you can’t stop thinking about him. Only One Night is 118 pages of what if, what if you are woken up by lips on yours and a hard body pressing you into the mattress?! Enjoy!!!!
A debauchery filled novelette that leaves you asking what just happened? But completely loving how you got there. The characters are really abstract, they can morph into whoever or whatever you imagine, which somehow makes the one night with a nameless, sometimes faceless, man that much better. A. R. Rose has done a superb job of taking something that is kind of a psychological thriller and making it hot AF. Check your triggers, plenty in here, and then enjoy this twisted Halloween short story.
This book is so unique! The characters aren't given names or described in much details. This allows the reader to form their own image of them.
Recently single, our FMC has been finding herself. While out by her pool, she sees an incredibly handsome man on her neighbor's roof and puts on a little show for him. Later that evening, he stars in her fantasies. She is surprised when he shows up in her house and they have an amazing evening. But in the morning, she realizes it was all a dream. Or was it?
