I survived jail. One night with a gorgeous stranger wasn’t supposed to be the hard part.

But Rowan Wilder is a force to be reckoned with. A five-foot-nothing storm cloud in combat boots who marches toward men twice her size with nothing but a baseball bat and a sharp mouth.

She’s the first woman to get under my skin...and the last one I should be touching.

I came to Starlight Cove looking for the father who abandoned my mom and me. Instead, I find four half-brothers who want me gone yesterday and the fiercely protective single mom who makes leaving feel impossible.

When a broken-down car strands me in Rowan’s attic and a storm lands me back in her bed, I’m suddenly sharing a roof with someone who looks like sin, tastes like temptation, and feels a hell of a lot like home.

Trouble is, her ex keeps circling like she still belongs to him. He’s wrong. And I’m one bad decision away from making sure he knows it.

Protecting Rowan is easy. Breaking through her defenses is not.

She’s spent years building walls around the life she’s fought hard to create, and falling for another ex-con isn’t part of her plan.

Walking away would be the smart move. But I didn’t survive everything I have just to be smart.

I survived it all to be hers.

This book was so good and quickly became my favorite in the series! I loved the storyline as well as Maverick and Rowan. Starlight Cove is a special series and I enjoyed catching up with previous characters. The humor had me smiling and I adored Maverick and how he just took charge and stepped up and took care of what needed to be done.A great listen and one I could see myself listening to again. Narrators, Rose Dioro and James Cassidy gave excellent performances and really embraced their characters, a great choice for Mav and Rowan.

Loved! A must listen audio

🎧 The One-Night Secret by Brighton Walsh
Narrated by James Cassidy & Rose Dioro

Well, my headphones have officially had enough of me, because apparently HALF A STEELE BROTHER IS STILL TOO MUCH FOR THEM TO HANDLE!!!

Brighton Walsh, you really did save one hell of a finale for us!

Maverick and Rowan’s story had me completely absorbed from beginning to end. The chemistry, the spice, the banter, the protective instincts, the family moments and those little acts of service that somehow manage to be ridiculously swoony. I was invested in every single moment, and I genuinely didn’t want to leave Starlight Cove.

But the AUDIO? Oh, my goodness!

James Cassidy and Rose Dioro were absolute perfection.

James embodied Maverick so beautifully, capturing that tough exterior, protective nature and softer side that made me fall for this man. And Rose? She was phenomenal as Rowan, bringing her strength, sharp tongue and fiercely protective mum energy to life with such authenticity.

Together, they made these characters feel real. The duet narration drew me right into their world, making every conversation, every emotional moment and every deliciously spicy scene feel as though I was right there with them.

This is exactly why I love audiobooks so much. When the writing and narration work together this well, listening becomes an experience rather than simply hearing a story.

And this series? Five stars across the board for me. Brighton has given us wonderful couples, unforgettable Steele brothers and a fictional place that genuinely feels like coming home.

I’m not ready to say goodbye to Starlight Cove, but if this is the finale, what a way to finish!

Brighton, can we talk about a second generation, please?

An absolute audio masterpiece!

Starlight Cove is the gift that keeps on giving. Small town shenanigans, family secrets, h0t & competent brothers (fanning oneself), strong ladies and lots of heartwarming moments.
The One Night Secret did not disappoint. We have a new Steele brother looking for answers that ends up finding a family and forever with Rowan, despite all the hiccups along the way.
James Cassidy as the gruff, h0t headed Maverick, was the perfect balance of surly and sultry, the perfect voice for the MMC; Rose Dioro brought the caring and strong will to Rowan’s character. The narration was absolute chef’s kiss.

I sure am glad we didn’t miss out on this brother!
Absolutely amazing performance from both narrators with an extra dash of appreciation for Rose Dioro. Impressive voice range, soothing cadence and the best Mabel yet.

P.S. What is the cost estimate for the groceries in Rowan’s household? I missed that calculation 😅

And now i want combat boots

Amazing duet narration and one of the best in the series. Sad to see this series end.
