ONS #1

One Night Seduction

Rate this book
The first book in an irresistible new dark romance trilogy by Katelyn Taylor, popular author of Graves and the Gallows Hillseries, this seductive novel is filled with romantic suspense and forbidden passion, where just one night can awaken your deepest, darkest desires.

One touch. One moment. One night.

That’s all it was meant to be.

One crazy night in a masked sex club for my best friend’s birthday.

I didn’t know what to expect. The last thing I saw happening was a sexy and mysterious Dom choosing me to be his Sub for the night.

But once the mask was lifted, everything changed.

It could never be just a casual one night stand. Mainly because the Dom I spent the night with wasn’t just anyone, he was my mother’s ex-husband…my ex-stepfather.

And now that he’s had me, he isn’t letting go.

From bestselling author Katelyn Taylor—creator of Graves and the Gallows Hill series—this seductive novel blends romantic suspense with forbidden desire, where one night of passion ignites an obsession neither of them can escape.

“I'd find a way to wrangle the moon and gift her the stars if she desired them.”

JEEEEEESUS!! Thank you, Dark Romance/Erotic Gods, for this blessing. My first 4 star rating in the genre! ::Happy dance:: Just when I thought Dark Romance might not be for me given my past 2 star reads, this hottie crosses my path. Honestly, the whole time I kept saying to myself that this would’ve made a KILLER Splatterpunk book. lol Always a horror girl at heart. Hang on a sec…

ATTENTION ALL GOODREADS SPLATTERPUNK AUTHORS - I need one of you to hook up with Katelyn Taylor and collaborate on a book, please. Thank you. Let’s go people, let’s make some art!

The audiobook for this IS A MUST. Listen to me, Sean Master’s voice for the character Logan is one of the sexiest male voices I’ve heard in my life. Sir, do you have a permit for that weapon??

HARD PASS.... I'm DNF'ing this one. The author does say there's sharing, so I was cool on some things - but to me he cheats and that's a big "no thanks". I know - it's a fine line in the BDSM/sex club type of books.

Guilt rips through me as I attempt to shield us and make myself decent. How decent can I be when she just caught me raw fucking her mom against a pool table and filling her with my cum? My cock is still inside her for Christ’s sake.

Yea... naw buddy - fuck you.

You know I have very few lines, but even this was too much for me to accept. I'm not writing a full review because I think most people will make their decision to read based on this info alone.

Arianna is 21, goes to a sex club, ends up smashing with her ex-stepdad Logan (they're both wearing masks). Logan figures it out mid-smash (during the second time they have sex during that same night). He plans to never repeat it until she says she wants him to show her more. They meet up the next week and have more hot smashing. Arianna finds out his identity and runs away. He's trying to figure out a way to get Arianna back when he gets a call from his ex-wife. The ex wants to reconcile, so she invites him to the lake house. He's going to say no until he learns Arianna will be there, he says yes. Then his brother comes into the picture and he ends up fucking Arianna!!! Then it looks like Logan feels left out so he gets drunk and he ends up fucking his ex-wife before Arianna walks in on them.

Once again, I’m OBSESSED. The ending was a freaking ride too 😂 Bravo, Katelyn! 👏 Bravo! 👏

This book is quite the family affair, LITERALLY. 😂 I’m cackling at myself. We’ve got age gap, taboo, spice, shocking twists, etc! Safe to safely I loved this book and I still love the Queen herself, Katelyn! 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼

3.5⭐ I liked it. But this isn't a book for everyone, read the warnings. You'll find a forbidden romance, a significant age gap, complex family relationships that interfere with the relationship, sometimes too much, if you know what I mean.

Arianna goes to a sex club with her friends and there she meets a masked man who is not so unknown. Their attraction is immediate and their relationship will be complicated but full of good moments that will make it worthwhile.

If you don't mind all the trigger warnings, you'll like this book. It has a little bit of everything, and now I'm waiting to find out who Arianna's friends met that night at the club.

3.5 🌟

Por el cumpleaños de una de las amigas de Arianna van a un club pero de esos muy secretos, en dónde todo se queda ahí 🌚🔥 conoce al hombre de sus sueños, alguien que la hace sentir tan bien y con el que quiere tener más encuentros la cosa se complica mucho cuando descubre que es su ex padrastro 👀

Esto podría contener spoilers❗❗

Fue una adicción este libro, pero a pesar de eso la primera mitad le sufri, estos dos tienen una gran conexión pero obvio no la van a aceptar tan pronto así que empiezan a tener relaciones con otras personas cercanos y eso no lo estaba soportando, se me hacía rarisimo por qué para empezar no estaba aportando nada a la trama y segundo no me gusta ese tipo de cosas, pero bueno después en la segunda mitad todo mejoro, estos dos aceptaron que en realidad querían estar juntos y ahí fue viento en pompa.

Aunque faltó más desarrollo de la relación, también lo de el club me hubiera gustado conocer más, es que en lugar de andar de babosos con otros la autora debió de desarrollar más las relación entre ellos para que no se sintiera rapida 😔

sorry but no

this was a terrible read. i loved the main concept of fudging the ex husband/stepdad! but once everyone was screwing with everyone it turned into a joke. Logan is supposed to be a grown mature man, yet acting like a dumb child. it was all a cliche no original idea... sorry but it was a terrible read.

I started this book because of one quote I saw on Instagram a week ago. Then I couldn’t put it down. I truly love me some forbidden romance with some amazing smut. I will say that the ending was absolutely bat shit crazy and didn’t need to be this rushed and this intense.

wtf was this book?? narration: duet??????? but they only did their characters voices not the other characters, we had her narrate male characters in her pov and him narrate the female characters in his pov.

it was going well until she started sleeping with the mmc’s brother at a cabin where they all were staying at, mind you the mmc went there to see her not because his ex-wife aka her mom invited him.

then she’s like you should give the attention you’re giving me to the one who wants it (her mom wants to get back with the mmc) and so he does right? WHY TF did she get angry when he did what she told him to do?????? MIND YOU SHE’S SLEEPING WITH HIS BROTHER NEXT DOOR!!!!!!

the double standards she had were insane, because you’re telling me it’s fine sleeping with his brother but when he sleeps with his ex(her mom) it’s a different story!! and I totally understand that her mom is crazy and all that but girl WHAT.

by the end of the book her mom is pregnant and she goes to tell the mmc that he’s the father, she gets upset (rightfully so) because there was no protection and all that but she was upset that he told her that if it’s his he’s gonna take care of the baby and not abandon it.

“So you’re upset with him because he’s not a piece of shit? That he wouldn’t ignore a child he fathered just because the mother is batshit?” Well, when he puts it like that.

“No. I’m mad that he stuck his dick in my fucking mother in the first place.”

“I’m not saying this to be hurtful, babe, but you did tell him to do that. You pushed him away, and in a moment of weakness, he did what you said, what you told him you wanted.”

WHILE SHE WAS SLEEPING WITH HIS BROTHERRRRRRRR

by the end of the book she finds out she’s pregnant and I was like BRO you’re telling me it could the mmc or his brother??!

This was a mess and not the good kind

Katelyn Taylor showing us why she's the queen of spice, because ohhhhh my goddddd. The spice in this was hawwwwt.

I love myself a forbidden, taboo age gap... and with her ex step-father? PLEASE, I need more.

I lowkey felt kinda bad for Kelly at first but that changed REAL QUICK. She's just slightly insane, and not in a good way.

I did listen to this one on audio and the narrators did a phenomenal job.

The only reason why it's not a 5 star:

One Night Seduction is short and spicy and just an all around good time! Logan and Arianna are as forbidden as they come, but their attraction outshines any walls that they are building.

🖤Forbidden
🖤Age gap
🖤Ex-step daughter
🖤One night stand
🖤Forced proximity
🖤Love triangle
🖤Masked meet cute

Logan and Arianna meet at a masked party and have the time of their lives. And when Logan invites her back for a second time, it is revealed that he is Logan; the Logan that used to be married to her mother. And that is enough to turn Arianna completely away and run off into the night.

Until these two are forced together again. But they aren’t alone. They are on vacation with their families, which includes Arianna’s mother, who has not let Logan go.

This book was so many, but totally messy at the same time! The way my mouth dropped when these two characters were winning to do anything to forget the other. But the messiness added to the spiciness of this book. I am looking forward to Arianna’s friends books in the future!

I completely devoured this in a day because I simply could not put it down. This was the messiest story ever and I loved every second of it. It was like an episode of Jerry Springer 🤣🤣
I eat up a taboo age gap romance and Katelyn straight delivered with Arianna and Logan. This was so hot and I am so excited for both of her besties books because I NEED to know what happened that one night for both of them 👀

“A Dom and a Sub’s relationship is complex. It requires balance and trust, even if it’s just for a night. You have to be willing to put your trust in me, give yourself over completely, and know that I’ll take care of you the way you need, but maybe not the way you expect.”

“If you don’t change your perspective from time to time, you could risk missing the most beautiful parts.”

Arianna and her friends attend a masquerade sex club, there Arianna meets a older gorgeous masked man and has the night of her life, agreeing to meet again a week later. After another night of mind blowing passion Arianna realizes she knows the masked man, he just so happens to be Logan Cunningham, her mothers ex husband, Arianna's ex step father.
Fleeing the club, Arianna is determined to put this mistake behind her and move forward with her life. Going to the lake house with her family is the perfect escape until Logan turns up. Arianna's mother is determined to get Logan back and Logan is determined to win Arianna over, and Arianna is stuck deciding what to to. Does she do the right thing and ignore what happened between her and Logan or does she go the unconventional route and have the thing she is drawn too, the thing that would make her the happiest?

Loved this book!! The plot, the spice, the connection between Logan & Arianna, chef's kiss.
Logan is everything a Dom & man should be. Ty is such a close second i truly found it hard to decide the two, i would take a brother sandwich any day. I hate Kelly with a passion, Wish nothing but bad for that character.

10/10 would recommend.

First of all thank you SO MUCH Katelyn for the ARC 🥹🥹🥹 love you sm gf!

Now for the review!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

It was super hot and steamy, taboo and totally fucking addictive. It was an absolute wild ride but in the best way possible. Miss ma’am Katelyn really said “let’s start this off with a BANG 🧨”

The tropes you ask????
❤️‍🔥 ex-stepdad
❤️‍🔥 sex club
❤️‍🔥 forbidden romance
❤️‍🔥 dom x sub

I couldn’t put it down. I was never bored for a second. The drama? Girl Dr Phil couldn’t even help you 💀 as I said before it really just pulls you in immediately and I loved that, sometimes you just need a book where the story isn’t dragged out forever! It was messy but so so fun to read.

The characters connection was so 🔥 Logan couldn’t keep away if he tried! The man was down bad and oh my godddddd was he hot as sin!

“Patience is a beautiful thing, and I think it’s time you learned that.” TEACH ME LOGAN 🧎🏼‍♀️‍➡️🧎🏼‍♀️‍➡️🧎🏼‍♀️‍➡️🧎🏼‍♀️‍➡️please daddy???

If you’re my friend, know and enjoy my taste in books then give this one a go especially if your into forbidden, fast-paced romance with a whole lot of spice 🥵 100% worth the read!

⭐️3.5 🌶️3.75


Idk how to feel ngl. Like the spice and smut did what it needed to do, but the plot fell short for me. I honestly think it was because of the fmc. I get the internal battle of her situation, however adding Tyson to the mix wasn’t needed at all and I felt bad for him in the end. Yes it was a hea, but it took me a bit to get through this because I felt like we kept having the same conversation in different ways. Still love my author girl tho this was just my personal take, but her books always eat.

One Night Seduction by Katelyn Taylor is the first book in the One Night Series. Katelyn will forever be one of my favourite authors. She always delivers and creates a unique world and experience. This was on the lighter side of stories, so if you are used to Graves or The Gallows Hills Series, this book will not have the dark element. However, it is full of rollercoaster moments and twists and turns. Let's say this story belongs in a movie!
The taboo aspect of this story is absolutely delicious, and I ate it up! Ex stepdad! Yes, yes, give me more!!! If there was one thing I wished was a bit prolonged, it was the mystery of their identity to each other; however, the story makes more sense the way it is!
I have enjoyed this short story, it had me hooked right from the beginning! It's hot AF and having a pierced MMC is the cherry on top of the cake, make him older and a taboo daddy! Hell yessssssss! Katelyn you are the fairy godmother and nothing you will ever write won’t have its own magic and such an impact on the readers!
Audiobook: performed by two of my absolute favourite voices Amy Hall and Sean Masters, they didn't disappoint! This audiobook had all the love poured into it, from the story to the performance and all the emotions!

‘Masks on, ladies, and welcome to paradise.’

I don’t know where to start! This was a sexy and taboo roller coaster, and I can honestly say I could not have picked the twists and turns in this!

There is nothing I can say without spoiling but from the moment that Ari steps into an exclusive kink club to celebrate her bestfriend, Cassi’s 21st - chaos ensues!

Ari and Logan’s story had me so consumed and needing more. The spice was hot!! and the twists had me gobsmacked! This was such a fun ride and I absolutely loved it! I cannot wait to read everything Katelyn Taylor!

This was a WILD ride. Pure chaos and absolutely insane at times. But this book will have you turning the pages to see what will happen next. And the spice is delicious! I absolutely love Logan and how will go after what he wants! And then Ari isn't afraid to be herself and I'm 100% for it! Cannot wait to see what the next book gives us!

What to expect:
-Ex-stepdad
-Forbidden
-Smex club
-Forced proximity
-Age gap
-Dom/sub

DNF @ 45%

one of my double standards is that i couldn’t care less about reading sex scenes of the FMC with people other than the MMC, but i HATE reading scenes of the MMC with other people (probably because this genre is absolutely riddled with virgin/celibate FMC + manwhore MMC combos, and i dgaf about FMCs getting theirs at this point). once we started getting graphic sex scenes of the MMC with another woman (the FMC’s MOM 😭), i had to nope the fuck out 👋🏼

Holy fu*k. I fall in love with every book Katelyn writes, okay.

The very first chapter of this book is going to suck you up and swallow you whole.. like Arianna does Logan 😏

We start off with Ari and her two besties going to a sex club for her friend’s birthday. Arianna found herself with a guy almost instantly and boy was the time HAD. Katelyn writes the best spice, hands down🫣 . The night was wild and the show they had with the crowd was EVERYTHING. Ari agrees to come back and meet up that weekend again.

This time she finds out the mystery man… is her ex step father. COME ON TABOO ME BABY🥵

They find themselves on a family vacation, that Logan has avoided since he left her mom for cheating on him. He decides to accept the invite this year so he can see Ari. And man oh man.

THEN his sexy brother Tyson comes? Excuse me Spectacular give me 14 of em right now . Iykyk. I need more Tyson because he definitely took care of my girl & the SHARING SCENE!

“ɴᴏᴡ ʙᴇ ᴀ ɢᴏᴏᴅ ɢɪʀʟ ᴀɴᴅ ᴄʜᴏᴋᴇ ᴏɴ ᴍʏ ᴄᴏᴄᴋ ᴡʜɪʟᴇ ᴍʏ ʙʀᴏᴛʜᴇʀ ꜰᴜᴄᴋꜱ ʏᴏᴜ ꜱᴇɴꜱᴇʟᴇꜱꜱ”

🧎‍♀️🧎‍♀️🧎‍♀️🧎‍♀️🧎‍♀️

I’m telling you I was so intrigued. Her aunt & uncle and the plot with her mom . JAW TO THE FLOORRRRR. The suspense . Everything about it I was obsessed with . Truly hate her mom .

Cannot wait for Naomi and cassi’s books because the tiny bread crumbs were crumbinnnggg and I need more.

What a wild ride. Katelyn knows how to hook us from the very first chapter and when I say this one starts with a bang, I mean it!

“𝑶𝒏𝒆 𝒍𝒐𝒐𝒌. 𝑶𝒏𝒆 𝒕𝒐𝒖𝒄𝒉. 𝑶𝒏𝒆 𝒏𝒊𝒈𝒉𝒕”

It started in a masked sex club, and we were thrown right into the deep dark end. Ari and Logan met and spent the night together unbeknown to each other WHO THEY WERE. Well I’ll fill in a little gap for you, Logan is Ari’s EX STEP FATHER.

Logan and Ari’s relationship, was not only bursting with steamy tension filled moments, their relationship was captivating to experience. Just trust me when I say it’s taboo as f*ck, and it wouldn’t be a Katelyn book without some family drama, twists and turns!

It was such a fun, spicy, quick read and it was exactly what I needed. Girllll we are out here begging for more already! 🤭🧎‍♀️

“ 𝑰 𝒏𝒆𝒆𝒅 𝒚𝒐𝒖𝒓 𝒘𝒐𝒓𝒅𝒔. 𝑰 𝒏𝒆𝒆𝒅 𝒕𝒐 𝒉𝒆𝒂𝒓 𝒚𝒐𝒖 𝒄𝒐𝒎𝒎𝒊𝒕 𝒕𝒐 𝒕𝒉𝒊𝒔 𝒏𝒊𝒈𝒉𝒕, 𝒕𝒐 𝒎𝒆”

At one point I was rooting for Tyson, I love him so much and I’ve decided - HE NEEDS HIS OWN BOOK!!!🫣Tell me I’m not the only one that felt that way!?

Thank you again for sending me a signed copy of this book. The NSFW is so hottt! 🥵🔥 Forever grateful to be on your street team!
