A Time for Love #1
One More Time
Alternate Cover Edition for B012MPAXZ2.
Hannah Whitfield is feeling kind of low. She's just learned that her long-time boyfriend has been cheating on her. Her twin brother is halfway around the world. And her dream of ditching law school and becoming a chef seems so far out of her reach, it's laughable.
And then there's her roommate, Brian Campbell. Brian's a party boy, an athlete, and Hannah's opposite in almost every way. He's also been the object of Hannah's secret desires for as long as she's known him.
Brian has barely looked twice at his best friend's twin sister. Hannah is cute enough, but totally not his type. A redhead wound so tight she can barely relax? No, thank you. She's just a friend. Period. The end. So when someone tells Brian that guys and girls can never be "just" friends, he scoffs. Obviously it's possible. They could probably even make out, and nothing would happen.
Except that something does happen. Something neither of them could have anticipated. Something that rocks them both and leaves them craving more. Will these two friends be able to navigate the rocky path between friends and lovers to find their way to love, or will it only ever be one more time?
*Please note this novella contains explicit love scenes, and is intended for mature audiences 18 and older.

Quick, smutty, and funny!
A well written friends with benefits to lovers novella. It was funny, smutty, and entertaining. Can't ask for much more than that.
If you're looking for a FWB read that's quick. I'd recommend One More Time.

This was a very well put together short story. I don't normally go for romance novels but I loved this one.
It sucked me in and it was a nice single sitting read.

I read this whole three-book (so far) series back to back. They're all quick, comfy reads with enough heat to keep things interesting. There is some conflict and angst at time, sure; fortunately it's of the "this could happen in real life" variety and not the "oh my these characters are being so unrealistically dumb" variety. I appreciate that not all the heroines are tall and slim and lovely and porcelain pale. I also appreciate that the writing style and editing rarely interrupt the flow of my reading, which often happens when I pick up short romances.

I really enjoyed One more time. It was a great read! I liked the characters and the storyline. Amelia has a way with words. Her sentences just flow and I couldn't put this book down. I read it in one sitting! This story seemed so realistic and I enjoyed that. It felt like the things that happened could happen in real life. I am a sucker for romance. And this book was fun and flirty and had everything I enjoy in a book. It was a great, quick read! But I wholeheartedly enjoyed it! I would recommend it! I can't wait to read more by Amelia Stone!

This story was captivating from first word to last. I laughed with the characters, felt their feelings, and warmed deeply with their love for each other. It usually takes me a long time to read, but I couldn't put it down. I read the entire story in one sitting. The characters are believable and relate-able. You almost feel like a friend watching their struggles to admit their affections. 100% would recommend!

This book was such a pleasure to read! The writer captures what I imagine would actually take place in these events. Her writing flows uninterrupted into each new sentence. This is such a fresh, fun and flirty story to read! I was able to read with no effort at all and I was captivated by every word. I could not prevent myself from smiling while reading! If you are looking for a quick read to satisfy your need for a real life, flirty romance, do not hesitate to pick 'One More Time' up!

Like an Appetizer: Not a Complete Meal but I'm Still Satisfied
Terrific, short friends-to-Fwb-to-relationship story. College upperclassmen, Brian and Hannah have known each other for a while because her brother was Brian's roommate. The "inducing jealousy" plot device is done well and, of course, everyone lives happily ever after.

Short and sweet!
Just enough smut along with a sweet storyline to keep you entertained. Loved how the views alternated, hearing both sides of the story kept me interested and gave characters more depth. The only downfall would be that it's a tad predictable, but that doesn't take away from the story at all. Leaves you feeling good and easily read in an evening!

This was a great quick read. The classic story of a girl and her brothers best friend. It was interesting to get the perspective of both Hannah and Brian. And Brian wasn't the typical romance novel jerk.
Amelia gives you just enough background to get the characters but focuses on the good stuff in this short novel.
This book makes for a good afternoon romance escape.

I really enjoyed this book, the story was fun and interesting and I loved the characters. There was just enough romance, drama, and comedy to keep me interested. I finished this book in one sitting over the course of an evening, and it was such a fun read. Can't wait to enjoy more by this author!

I'm not generally a romance reader, but I really enjoyed this story! It was short but addictive, and I finished it in one sitting. I enjoyed the writing, dialogue, and the characters, but I do wish the characters had a little more development. It moved so quickly but wasn't rushed and left me wanting more!

Easy to read, fast, and chock-full of steamy parts! Who doesn't love a smutty novel with a very sweet ending. Highly recommend to people interested in the genre, especially for people with busy lives looking to escape into the world of a novella.

This was a fun, quick read. Cute story with some great smut scenes thrown in so it wouldn't be too romantic. This was the perfect amount of sweet and steamy. I'm a huge fan of epilogues, so nice to have it all wrapped up for me at the end.

This was a refreshing, quick-paced, modern romance and I enjoyed every page! I especially liked how she switched points of view from the leading female to the leading male. Great read and just enough smut!

Quick, well-written, and HOT. Definitely worth a read. Perfect for vacation reading on the beach.

I really enjoyed this book. I just wish there had been more. It seemed like a lot of it was rushed. I would definitely recommend this to a friend.

This was a fun quick read! I really enjoyed the characters and their growing relationship. At first their relationship is just a one night stand but quickly turns into more. They each discover in their own time that they can not live without each other. I recommend this book as a fun, light, entertaining read. I’m looking forward to reading more from Amelia Stone.

This book gave me all the feels. I laughed, I cried, I smiled, and then I got... well, you know. ;) I felt like I could relate to this book because I went through something similar in my own life. A quick and easy read, I would definitely recommend you pick up a copy for yourself.

This was a really great debut short story and I can't wait until the author writes more!

This booked sucked me right in as soon as I started reading it. Being a short story was a plus. I don't typically go for romance novels. But this book proves to me, maybe I should. The story line was written very well. And I loved all the characters in the book. Hannah of course was my favorite. I look forward to reading other books by this author.
