The Rules of Dating My One-Night Stand

About This Audiobook

Penelope Ward delivers a scorching, enemies-to-lovers romance that hinges on a single night—and a lie that refuses to stay buried. The premise is simple: two strangers meet at a bar, exchange a mind-blowing night of passion, and part ways assuming they’ll never cross paths again. But fate isn’t done with them yet. When Devyn, a struggling bartender, discovers the charming stranger she slept with is actually her new landlord—and the reason she’s about to be evicted—her first instinct is to storm out. His? To manipulate the situation into a twisted game of cat-and-mouse that forces them into close quarters. What unfolds is a battle of wills, fueled by unresolved chemistry and a slow-burning tension that crackles between every clipped retort and stolen glance.

This isn’t your typical meet-cute romance. Ward’s signature blend of raw humor, aching vulnerability, and steamy confrontation makes *The Rules of Dating My One-Night Stand* feel like a cross between a reality TV drama and a steamy thriller. The audiobook experience elevates it further, with Sebastian York and Vanessa Edwin trading narration duties to distinguish between the leads’ perspectives. York’s smooth, teasing tone for the male lead contrasts brilliantly with Edwin’s sharp, no-nonsense energy for Devyn, making their verbal sparring sessions feel electric. The production captures the book’s humor and drama with crisp clarity, letting the snappy dialogue and emotional gut-punches land as intended.
