The four bestselling authors of "It Happened One Night" return with an even more innovative anthology, in which the theme for these stories was chosen by the readers themselves!

What if they each wrote a story about a proper young lady stranded at a remote inn away from society's constraints? What would happen? And how long would it take for her to give in to desire?In these four amazing tales, four heroines will come face-to-face with the men who got away . . . only to discover that, instead of anger, there is still a passionate connection that cannot be denied. And while each of their lives is quite different, and their pasts utterly unique, they will all make a common discovery--that one night can change everything . . . forever.
