Description
One night.
No strings.
Things just got complicated.
Between long hours in the ER and failing to please her demanding father, Dr. Alexa Collins barely has time for a life, and the strain is starting to take its toll.
On a rare night out, she can’t resist getting a little crazy on the dance floor. Or playfully crooking her finger at the sinfully hot football player watching her every move. And when a dance leads to some hot, stress-relieving sex, she’s all in with Luke Thompson. He’s just the no-risk diversion she desperately needs.
When Luke proposes they spend some time together, Alexa can’t say no. Not when he’s so determined to show her how to have fun. Alexa figures it can’t hurt to have a few days with the irresistible Luke. After all, he’ll be gone soon, and her life will return to the daily grind.
Except this perfect stranger is more than she anticipated and when it’s time to say goodbye, he’ll be taking a big piece of her heart with him.
* Perfect Strangers was originally part of the Hot Summer Nights anthology.

5By 12tootThis was an easy, short read. Alexa was an overworked doctor trying to live up to her father’s expectations. Luke was supposed to be a fun, one night stand. It ended up to be so much more. A different way of life. Alexa learned that there was so much more to life than work and what better partner to learn that with than Luke!Needs Updating
3By laika76I love all of Carly’s books but this one definitely needs to be fixed. It’s clear when they updated the series they decided to leave this one as is but it doesn’t match the rest. The characters names are different, what they do for a living. Even the main characters are off, on one page it says he’s 33 and two pages later, it says he’s about to turn 30. In one part his sisters are all younger than him and later in the book, one is older.Loved It!

5By PattiA810The instant chemistry with swooning affection make Alexa and Luke a dream couple. The way Luke understands Alexa melts your heart and eases the vulnerability that Alexa feels in every aspect of her life. This book is the ultimate in romance perfection!.
