I live in Missouri with my hubby, our four children, my fur babies (dogs, cats, and goats) and my amazing staff that runs my sprawling ranch...just kidding. They aren't my staff, they're my family members but there are way too many to count so just trust me on this.

Energy shots are my daily caffeine addiction because caffeine is life. I love all things romance, the dirtier the better, and even though I've never traveled far away from home, in my imagination I've been all around the world a few hundred times.

I've been an avid reader for as long as I can remember, but the first romance novel I ever read was Midnight Whispers by V.C. Andrews. My mom and aunt owned all of her books and I snuck that one off the shelf when I was twelve and never looked back. I enjoy writing contemporary romance with strong and sexy heroines, hot and hunky heroes, and lots and LOTS of panty-melting steam!

I enjoy enjoy connecting with my readers so you can find me in my reader group on FB or connect with me via:

Allen and Jessica met and had a one night stand in the first instalment.Both have gone through bad breakups with their former partners who cheated on them.Allen and Jessica has this case of insta-love as soon as their eyes met,but while Jessica was too afraid to give their connection a chance, Allen was too prideful to fight for it.

In "One More Night" we see that both have been apart for 3 months,and both miss each other like crazy.But they reunite in a air-plane where sparks ignite and both can`t keep their hands off each other for long.I have not read the first instalment and i think its not even needed since we get to know what happened in the past through Allen`s POV.The author is good at build up and the pacing of the story and she is good when it comes to writing,but she clearly needs to work on her dialogue a bit more because it came off very sloppy and cringy at times that i even suspected that it was a wattpad story at times.I like Allen and Jessica as characters,nothing wrong with them..but ohhh that cliffhanger ending made me want to scream out in frustration.Now i will have to wait for the sequel to this one.

One More Night by M.L. Cranium kicks off with epic edginess and a desire for more.

With how things were between Allen and Jessica, after the disastrous last few moments between them, it's time to start anew. But can they do that when they're so obsessed with each other already?

Days are restless, nights filled with nightmares. Trust has become an important part of their lives. With how their exes have broken their hearts earlier, it's only a matter of time to find and move on to new people. But that's the thing about moving on! You don't really move on, can you?

ML takes you on a whirlwind romance where passion ignites and hearts crumble. Again. With a rejuvenated determination to take over things, Allen must keep up with his fate before he loses Jessica once again.

Highly recommended 5 star read.

I don’t know why i kept reading these books, i hate insta love and that’s what this was. I also didn’t enjoy how the author wrote smut and the foreplay was uncomfortable and i didn’t like being inside the characters heads.
Why i kept reading ? they were short .

Whoa!! .
That was so steamy and gave me all the feels.


Jessica meets Allen for a one night stand. Emotions start and Jessica is torn between wanting it to end and wanting him to stay.
Will she give in to her heart and to Allen and his sweetness or will they never see each other again in true one night stand fashion?
I guess ill have to wait to find out!!

Were there continuity errors? Yes, a couple.
Did the writers overuse the same word a few times? Sure.
Do I give a flying one? NOPE!

I usually can't stand those sorts of errors, but I'm happy to make an exception here because dear God, that was spicy!

Allen and Jessica are hot, Hot, HOT! And the sexy times were epic! Can't wait for the next instalment!

Allen has left me wanting to know more of him. Sexy and decisive. I did ache a little Jessica.

The one night stand in to a day date gives the reader some hope... but we are left wanting more of the story. I did feel like the day date gave some empty hope to Jessica.... but we shall see in book 2. This was a quick easy read. just felt it was a little unrealistic to change a one night stand into a one day only date.

Really enjoyed it. I have to say I have a hard time reading in present tense, but this read was rather easy.

Reads quickly and easily. Keeps your interest.

I was both excited and 'disappointed' with the ending, but will definitely be awaiting the next book! (I say disappointed, but that's not the right word.)

Short, steamy story.

Allen has left me wanting to know more of him!!!
And my little heart ache for Jessica. 😭

Can’t really blame Allen since he gave Jessica what she wanted, but I’m wandering...... what’s that what she really wanted?

Can’t wait to find out!!!!!

I received an ARC and this is my voluntary review.

This is the second book in this series and it was just Wow!

Jessica can’t get Allen out of her mind or her system and feels like she made a big mistake making Allen leave that night, but what can she do now? Her mother tries to set her up on an uncomfortable date that turns into a friendship.

Allen can’t get Jessica out of his mind and his friends are at there wits end with his temper tantrums so they decide enough is enough and he needs to take a break and sort his head out. A chance encounter is what it takes to collide these two lovers and it makes you not want to put this book down. I read both these books one after the other and I was not going to take a break till I had finished them because they kept me gripped from the beginning. My only problem is I have to wait now for my next instalment, but it’s definitely worth the wait as I loved the characters and the books and can’t wait to see what unfurls...

This was a hot and steamy read definitely worth it I couldn’t put it down.

Hoooooo....

If you like your guys all alpha-protective and your sexy times not kinky but just plain HOT, this is the series for you!

In this second installment, from page ONE I could feel the passion and the sexual tension rolling off of both of the characters (especially Allen). I could feel just how badly each one missed the other and when they ran into each other again, I could seriously feel the WANT.

New characters were also introduced and hooked me into wanting to know more and I'm bouncing up and down for the third and final installment of this sexy hot saga!

This the 2nd book on this series and is a continuation of Allen and Jessica’s journey. When a one-night stand turns in more, and when a no-strings attached relationship turns into more and boundaries are crossed, heartbreak is imminent. This is a well written tale which is emotionally charged, and with heartbreak, passion, and love, which all leads to a steamy and all-consuming read. I look forward to reading more from this talented author whose work I recommend.

What do you do to forget the man you pushed away? You go on a trip with another man. So what do you do when the man you are trying to forget is on the same plane going to the same place? Well Allen is certainly not going to let Jessica get away from him again. The only issue I had with the second part of this story is that Allen seemed a little controlling. Yes he was betrayed by his fiancee, but he appeared to be manipulating Jessica into thinking she shouldn't do anything without him.

***4.5 stars***
One More Night is book two in the One Night series and I was not disappointed with this book. This continues Jessica and Allen’s tale. The storyline resumes a couple of months later, when a chance meeting on a plane ensues. The emotions in this story are just as electrifying as in One Night Stand. The twists at the end I just didn’t see coming.
I voluntarily reviewed this book after receiving an arc copy for an honest review.

Sexy Steam Read. But Must Read Book 1
One More Night is part two from Only One Night. This picks up two months after the end of One Night. This is a quick and spicy read. If you are looking for a fun spicy read to warm you. This is a good choice!

Crikey, what a follow-up! I was a little worried that it wouldn't live up to the first one, because I've seen that happen A LOT, but this was in no way a disappointment, although the cliffhanger was a little confusing. But that kinda makes me want to read book 3 even more...

I enjoyed one night stand and one more night was not a disappointment. Allen and Jessica have a chance meeting in an airplane of all places and pick up right where they left off. I love the build and the story line that ML Cranium has created, looking forward to see what happens next.

One More Night is the second instalment in the One Night series, and I absolutely LOVED it!

Jessica and Allen's story is SCORCHING hot, and more than a few times I felt like reaching through the phone and strangling them both!

I can't wait for the third a final book!
