London Daniels works her way up the ladder at her job. The one night she decides to celebrate her new promotion, she meets a man, and after a few drinks, she finds herself tangled in the sheets in a hotel room with him.
Genesis Lancaster has just returned to his hometown when he meets London. He wasn’t looking for anything more than one night, and when he gets what he wants, she becomes an everlasting memory.
When the two of them are set up on a blind date by a mutual friend, Genesis discovers he left something special behind.
This book was good… I do like that the FMC ended up running into the MMC on a date.. telling him that he has a kid from a one night stand with her months back.. overall cute romance
Just One Night had all the ingredients for a bomb book: a one night stand, a blind date, and a secret baby trope? Yeah, this should’ve hit every single time. But somehow… it completely fumbled the execution. The premise had so much potential, especially with Genesis and London at the center of it, but the story never really took off. I kept waiting for the plot to give me something exciting, emotional, or memorable, and it just never got there. Once the baby’s paternity was confirmed, the story lost almost all momentum for me. While the book was relatively unproblematic, it also felt very flat and uneventful. One thing I did enjoy was how Genesis immediately locked in once he found out Paris was his daughter. That kind of protective, intentional energy from a male lead will almost always work for me. I also appreciated how London’s friends and family never judged her for getting pregnant from a one night stand, they simply supported her, and I loved that dynamic. The blind date aspect of the story also had a lot of potential and honestly could’ve been really cute if it had been developed more. Unfortunately, even the romance, dates, and relationship development struggled to hold my attention. I kept reading hoping the story would eventually pick up, but it never fully did. I can see what the author was trying to do, but for me, it just didn’t land. It was boring
Yes a Secret baby turned into sweetest love story with two people that meshed so well together. I loved how they matched each others freaky.. I loved how everything just gently fell into place..very low drama book. Surprises yea but alll love and consideration. Cute couple.
I absolutely loved this story. It’s the perfect palate cleanser after some heavier reads. Genesis and London, or rather Gary & Lisa (😏), had one unforgettable night together. Fast forward, and that night left behind more than either of them expected. A chance blind date put them back into each other’s orbit, and things went on from there.
What I appreciated most was that the author didn’t drag out the baby reveal. That’s a pet peeve of mine with the secret baby trope. When the FMC takes forever to tell the MMC he’s a father, it often creates unnecessary frustration. That wasn’t the case here, and it allowed the story to focus on what mattered most: watching their relationship develop.
I loved watching Genesis step up and follow London’s lead as he got to know his child. It was adorable seeing him in daddy mode, and I appreciated the intention with which they built their relationship. I enjoyed the dates, but I especially loved the mundane moments of them hanging around the house, playing and reading together, or grocery shopping. Also Ms. London…you better talk him through it, sis. 😏
Anyway, this was a super sweet no tension, no drama no angst kinda romance.
Genesis and London’s story was the perfect palate cleanser! 🥰✨ There was no unnecessary drama—just a beautiful journey of love, fate, and family. ❤️
What started as a one-night stand resulted in the greatest surprise of all: a precious baby. 👶🏽💕 Unfortunately, no names or numbers were exchanged, leaving their connection as nothing more than a memory. But fate had other plans! 🌟
The two were reunited through a blind date arranged by London’s best friend. From the very beginning of reconnecting, London let Genesis know he was a father, and together they began building a friendship that gradually blossomed into a loving family. 🏡💖
This was a beautiful, heartwarming read that left me smiling. 📚💕✨
Best one night stand EVER!! Gary and Lisa aka Genesis and London met while having dinner and drinks with their friends. Her smile captivated him from across the room, so he had to go over and introduce himself. Her smile sent Cupid's arrow straight to his heart.
Since he didn't want to leave her just yet, he asked her to club down from the restaurant to listen to music. The vibe and danced heating things up. Still not wanting to part ways he invites her to his room. The chemistry is off the charts, and she dips in the morning.
Eight months later, she is set up on a blind date with her baby daddy. Best date ever!!!
London and her friend go out to celebrate her job promotion. Genesis approached London in the restaurant, and they are immediately attracted to one another which leads to them having a one-night stand. London runs out on him, but they see each other again some months later on a blind date. I'm glad that there was no drama when Genesis finds out that there is a surprise from their night together. I loved the family that Genesis, London and Paris formed. You could feel the love that they had for each other. This was a really beautiful love story that had my interest from the very beginning. You need to 1 Click for yourself. You won't be disappointed.
When I read Soleil’s contribution to the BLP MC Series, I made it my mission to read the rest of her catalog and that’s exactly what I did and enjoyed every minute of it. So if you haven’t read any of her books, go ahead and add all of them to your TBR, you will not be disappointed!!
London and Genesis’ story was simply amazing. What started as a chance meeting while she was out celebrating a promotion at work, turned into so much more. When you know you know, even when you don’t exchange information and give each other fake name. Cause what’s meant to be will be, all in the right time!
This book was so good! It had plenty of spicy moments from beginning to end, and I absolutely loved that. Watching their relationship grow and seeing them become closer with each chapter made the story even more enjoyable. Their love felt genuine, and I found myself rooting for them the entire time.
And of course, we can’t forget the little surprise gift that came from their initial hookup—that definitely added an interesting twist to the story! Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed this book and would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a romance with passion, chemistry, and a beautiful love story. 💕📚
London goes out to celebrate her new promotion with one of her two besties while the other is on facetime. She meets a man named Gary, hangs out, has drinks with him then has the best night of her life in his hotel room.
Because they both used fake names, he wakes up to an empty bed with no way of contacting her.
Months later, London is a single mother to an 8 month old daughter named Paris. Yes, from the one night stand who she has no clue who or where he is.
The two of them ended up being set up on a blind date by a mutual friend and once they reconnect things get real serious, real quick.
This was such a cute romance! I love that they both found their forever from a one-night stand...and ended up with a baby too.
This book had almost every trope I love: insta-love, insta-family, a blind date, a one-night stand, and best of all...it was completely drama-free. Sometimes I just want to read about two people falling in love without a bunch of unnecessary chaos, and this delivered exactly that.
It was a quick, sweet read that had me smiling the whole time. No over-the-top shenanigans, no ridiculous misunderstandings—just a fun, feel-good romance with characters I enjoyed rooting for.
I'm really enjoying Soleil as an author and can't wait to read more of her books.

No strings, no ties, no attachments or so they thought. A spicy night turned into something neither of them could’ve ever imagined. London and Genesis OMG love them. S/O to London for her control and dominance in the bedroom. I love to see it! It was spicy, gentle, beautiful, and sexy. They bonded, built a friendship, and just had dope times together growing. What they made together in just one night tied them together forever and held so much promise. It was more than others share in a lifetime.
A one-night stand, fake names, no contact information, an unexpected baby, and a chance encounter months later? You have to just go with it. Once I did, I found myself enjoying the ride.
This book delivered Black love, a little drama, and just the right amount of spice without going overboard. London and Genesis were easy to cheer for, baby Paris was adorable, and the story left me smiling. Sometimes you don’t need a complicated plot, you just need a sweet romance with characters worth rooting for, and this one delivered.
Quick read(wished it didn’t end), great plot. I loved the characters. This is something that I know is fiction, but I’ve known people to live in the same town and not see each other years and have mutuals in common. This felt like I was watching a movie. I loved how London and Genesis both were respectful and understanding of the situation at hand. Real grown up behavior. I also loved the spice in this book🔥🔥 GO READ IT!!
Second chance Romance blind date becomes your baby girl father ..
Both was against blind date and gave fake names and they both still thought about each other...
The only thing I didn't like about it took awhile before his parents met there grand baby ... Everybody else met but not his parents tell almost the end ..
That's the only reason I gave it 4-star instead of 5
Sexual chemistry between them were great too London & Genesis
Such a cute read ! Soleil definitely knows how to write a cute heartwarming black romance.
The fact that neither of them found or wanted anyone after that one and ended up being set up on a blind date together is crazy ! The universe was talking hunny lol .
I love how once Q found out he was a dad he immediately stepped up !!!
I enjoyed this story from beginning to end. Genesis and London were so cute together. I loved their energy and vibe. One night truly lead to forever with them.
If you love an unproblematic couple and a story without any drama, this one is a great and quick read.
Now London know how to celebrate a promotion. Drinks with the girls and fun with a man until the next lifetime. This was definitely an enjoyable read with mature characters. There was areas where things could have been messy but they handled it with class.
I needed a short, low-stakes romance. I found it. I loved this book from beginning to end. The FMC and MMC were grown ups in their decision making and came together like adults. I loved how Genesis loved London, and I loved how London lowered her guard and allowed Genesis to love her properly. Black women need that type of love.
Now this is a break from my usually unhinged characters but it did not disappoint. It kept me engaged and entertained. The way Genesis did not play about London just made me smile. He always put her first even on their "one night stand" lol. This was definitely a feel good love story. It's smooth and well written and a good read.
It was a cool story and nothing to earth shattering for me. It was a first by the author for me. I must say I feel as though the storyline was there, and while there was no drama or long drawn out foolish behavior, for me as a reader it did feel as though there could be a bit more flushing done to the storyline to build the impact.
That’s a good man, Savannah! This was such a cute quick read. London and Genesis partook in a one stand and wasn’t expecting much to come of it but, the universe saw otherwise. After their one night stand London flees in the middle of the night having a bit of regret. Though neither never forgot the other they had nothing beyond a first name and a fake one at that to go by. But London didn’t leave that night by herself. After a blind date surprise these two are reunited and boy do they have a lot to discuss.
This was so refreshing to read. No drama just that easy kind of love we all crave.
This was a sexy, quick read that I truly enjoyed! The fire between "Lisa & Gary" was undeniable on that one night stand. It left them both with a burning desire for one another and a forever gift. Great job Author Soleil! Looking forward to reading more of your work! 🎉✨️👏🏾
This book was a bit repetitious for me.Saying remarks over and over and over and over and over again
A one-night stand wasn’t on my bingo card, but it happened, and I was blessed with a man who loved me and our children unconditionally.Life was as perfect as it could be. I never would have guessed that in just one night, I would have all of this.
When your actions come full circle and you find love in the person you never expected to see again!!!… Genesis and London were so sweet together and they fit so well!!!… They were very mature about working Genesis into their daughter’s life and each others too!!!… I was so happy they were able to meet up again and become a family!!!…
London and Genesis had an unexpected night and connection which led to more. Hannah knew what she was doing for Genesis and her friend. Liked how the relationship developed between and Paris. Genesis was real surprised by those books loll.
