Stay Longer — Maria Jackson

As a defense lawyer trying to make partner, Leanne doesn't have time for much outside of work. Her five-year plan doesn't even involve dating, never mind one-night stands. But when a quick drink leads to a proposition from a beautiful stranger, she finds herself saying yes. Newbank isn't the type of place BJ ever intended to visit. A permanent wanderer, she prefers big cities or wild music festivals. But when a cancelled flight lands her in this boring town for the night, she still intends to make the best of it. And the lawyer she meets at the bar is sexy in an uptight way. Who cares if they have nothing in common? It's just for one night. But when these opposites find a startling passion in each other's arms, everything they thought they knew is called into question. Could Leanne give BJ a reason to stay longer - or forever?
