The One Night Retreat: A One Night Stand with my Brother's Billionaire Best Friend

Harper West doesn’t do one-night stands.

When a handsome stranger sweeps her off her feet at a countryside retreat, she decides one reckless night might be exactly what her life needs.

No names. No strings.

Just a fleeting escape from her struggling career and a past that won’t stop haunting her.

Gabriel Lawson doesn’t believe in love. As a billionaire with a reputation for keeping emotions locked behind boardroom walls, he’s built an empire by focusing on logic, not feelings.

But one unforgettable night with Harper shakes his carefully guarded control.

When Gabriel walks into Harper’s life again—as her brother’s best friend and potential investor—everything changes.

Suddenly, he’s offering more than just that passionate one night stand. He’s offering connections that could save her writing career. But Harper’s wary of mixing business with pleasure, especially when her heart’s still scarred.

As Gabriel helps Harper chase her dreams, he finds himself falling—hard. But can Harper trust that what they’re building is real? Or will her past, and Gabriel’s guarded heart, keep them apart?

Will Harper risk opening her heart to an unpredictable future, defying the narrative she’s always known?
