One Summer Night

College professor Johanna Marshall swore she would never fall in love again. She especially did not want to become involved with someone who has a reputation as an extreme womanizer...someone like Kelly Sambino.

But on a hot summer night, Jo finds herself unable to resist Kelly. What follows is something Jo would like very much to quickly forget. Embarrassed after their night of passion, Jo hopes she will never have to see Kelly again. Then, when Fall classes begin, Jo finds herself face to face with the college's new Literature Professor - Kelly Sambino.

Loved it

You can't go wrong with Gerri Hill and Abby Craden. My favorite duo. I love anything by Gerri.

Sweet romance

I love Gerri Hill books and Abby Craden does an excellent narration. I enjoyed this book and waited for Jo to figure herself out.

So Close to a Great reas

ended to swiftly. Their just needed to be a few more pages. After all they had been through, a little more reward would have been grand

Originally published in 2000

I enjoyed this book a lot but could tell it was older based on the lack of mobile phones and texting and social media. I thought putting this out there would let someone listen without wondering if they missed the setting.

Can’t push love away forever

Gerri Hill expertly reveals the fears and insecurities of college professor Johanna Marshall who refuses to fall for athletic, sexy, womanizer Kelly Sambino,

What’s worse, fall semester begins and Kelly is announced as a new member of the college faculty. Kelly and Jo are drawn to one another like a moth to a flame. But Jo won’t let herself get close enough to Kelly to explore a deeper relationship.

Are Kelly’s feelings for Jo real or is it just a physical thing pulling them together? Will Jo abandon Kelly to avoid being vulnerable? Let the dance begin…

This was a sweet, steamy and challenging HEA. And you can’t go wrong when Abby Craden brings the story to life!

Absolutely Beautiful!

Nothing left to be said! But since there is a word requirement, I loved it!

A Main Character That….

A main character that is weak and undecided, can only be redeemed by the woman who loves her.
Joanna (Jo) has been burnt by love, and therefore decides she will never fall in love again.
Along comes Kelly, a new instructor at the same college Jo teaches at, and a star softball player on Jo’s friends’ team.
Kelly is gorgeous with a bad girl reputation.
She falls deeply in love with Jo, who pulls her close, then pushes her away. Strong, lovely Kelly always honors whatever way Jo’s mood is taking her. It’s okay to be in love one day, but the next, Jo is telling Kelly she “can’t do this”
I lost count of how many times this push/pull happens. It’s
enough that the character of
Jo becomes extremely unlikeable.
One thing that is a reoccurrence in almost all of Hill’s work,is that the MC’s always have sex immediately after a traumatic event ie: death, assault etc. The sex scenes are almost the same reading every.single. time.
Abby Crayden’s performance and the character of Kelly, kept me plowing through this. If not for them, I wouldn’t have finished.
If repetitive sex scenes, and a whiny, exasperating MC is your jam, then you’ve just found your next great read!

One Summer Night 🔥❤️

This one was angsty! Johanna was a mess, but insecurity can really mess with a person. Bless Kelly's heart for being so patient. She took care of Jo, no matter what. They were really hot together... it was spicier than usual🌶🥵🔥

Even with Johanna dealing with her roller coaster of emotions, this was still a good book. I enjoyed it ☺️

Sweet but Frustrating

This was a good read. The characters were relatable but Kelly’s character could have been developed more. She had so much depth but needed more backstory. It would have been more heartwarming if her perspective had been told more.

Great author

I love all of Gerri Hill’s books. I love Abby as the narrator. I feel like I’m right there with the characters, watching everything unfold. I’ve listened to all of them several times. My only complaint is some of them aren’t longer.
