The ball that started it all.
On the night of her eighteenth birthday, Savannah Prescott finds herself whisked away to a ball in an enchanted castle. Surrounded by a sea of monsters, she spots a familiar face—one that she thought she had forgotten. Luca Caspan is back, and he has much to tell her, starting with why he left her heartbroken two years ago. While the revelations he unveils to her are true, much of what Savannah remembers of the ball will later prove to be a fantasy. In the moment, however, everything about this one night feels real . . .
Previously published in the widely popular The Monster Ball anthology, One Night is the short story that started it all. Discover how Sav and Luca's journey began, the real and the not-so-real, from the very beginning.
