By the New York Times bestselling author who “hilariously depicts modern dating” (Us Weekly), My Favorite Half-Night Stand is a laugh-out-loud romp through online dating and its many, many fails.Millie Morris has always been one of the guys. A UC Santa Barbara professor, she’s a female-serial-killer expert who’s quick with a deflection joke and terrible at getting personal. And she, just like her four best guy friends and fellow professors, is perma-single. So when a routine university function turns into a black tie gala, Mille and her circle make a pact that they’ll join an online dating service to find plus-ones for the event. There’s only one hitch: after making the pact, Millie and one of the guys, Reid Campbell, secretly spend the sexiest half-night of their lives together, but mutually decide the friendship would be better off strictly platonic. But online dating isn’t for the faint of heart. While the guys are inundated with quality matches and potential dates, Millie’s first profile attempt garners nothing but dick pics and creepers. Enter “Catherine”—Millie’s fictional profile persona, in whose make-believe shoes she can be more vulnerable than she’s ever been in person. Soon “Catherine” and Reid strike up a digital pen-pal-ship...but Millie can’t resist temptation in real life, either. Soon, Millie will have to face her worst fear—intimacy—or risk losing her best friend, forever. Perfect for fans of Roxanne and She’s the Man, Christina Lauren’s latest romantic comedy is full of mistaken identities, hijinks, and a classic love story with a modern twist. Funny and fresh, you’ll want to swipe right on My Favorite Half-Night Stand.

"Reed and Millie are best friends but are also secretly in love. So secretly in love that neither one of them knew about it. I liked how this showed an emotionally adjusted man and emotionally stunted woman. And in the end open communication is the best for a relationship and also therapy."
Nicole Sinders
"This book was such a cute, light and funny friends to lovers. Read it in a day. "
Leticia Cormier
"Millie is a red flag. She's a liar and manipulator. Also she's "not like the other girls""
Johanna Ghofulpo
"Loved it"
Cara Grant
"I was in the mood for a quick romance read and found it in this book. It took only a few hours to read. It was a little confusing to keep the supporting characters separated. If you're looking for a quick, love story, it's not a bad book, probably not worth a reread as the main character is a little exhausting."

"This is my third Christina Lauren book, I picked this book up at Barnes & Noble. I really enjoyed reading this book, I loved Reid’s character but I was a fan of Millie. This is a friends to lovers story 💗. 9/10 💛"

"I love both main characters but it's not my favorite plot as far as Christina Lauren books go."

"⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ funny, but I also had some second-hand embarrassment which is one of my favorite niches of comedy! I prefer Lauren’s Unhoneymooners, but this one is still a fun read."
Olivia Goettsch
"This book was ok, entertaining but not very memorable"
