 Found In Bliss by Sophie Oak
Series: Night in Bliss, Colorodo, Book #5
Publisher: Siren-Bookstrand Publishing
Genre: Erotic Romances, Menage
Length: 302 pages
Summary:
Eight years after being tossed aside by the husband who took her son away, Holly Lang finds herself caught between two lovers – the exotic and dangerous Alexei Markov and the gentle but haunted Dr. Caleb Burke.
A former hit man for the Russian mafia, Alexei has been in witness protection while he testified against the mob. Now that he is done, he will do anything to earn Holly’s love.
Dr. Caleb Burke is a walking contradiction. His love for Holly is obvious, but he keeps her at a distance. Underneath his gruff demeanor is a tortured soul that only Holly can heal.
As their passions burn out of control, Alexei and Caleb discover someone is trying to kill her. The only way to discover the identity of the killer is for all three to face up to the secrets of their past and work together to fight for everything they have found in Bliss.
Deb’s Review:
Bliss, Colorodo is a haven for trouble, happy ever afters and the most intense sexual experiences in and out of the bedroom. Found in Bliss by Sophie Oak is a hot ticket to pleasureville.
 Holly is a strong sexy character that I enjoyed tremendously. I feel that she grew more with time. I am glad that she came later. Now what’s a gal to do when two hot males go gunning for her?
Caleb and Alexei are just as entertaining as they are sexy, talk about a double dose of hot strapping men. Caleb sure loves the word No. I was laughing at how it was frustrating me as well. I have to admit that I have been waiting for Alexei to show his heart.
These two Alpha males touched me as I read on. They overcame their roadblocks both in the past and present. This trio heat things up in the bedroom. Let’s just say having a Doc in the family sure is a plus. *grins*
As for the secondary characters, Holy Smack Down! They are a handful. You get to visit with the ones you enjoyed from the first books, as well as get to know some new players. What there is never a shortage of is trouble.
I have to give a shout out to Ms. Oak I loved getting to know Nick as adult. I was impressed.
Found in Bliss is a fun, sexy read that had some, “Oh crap!” moments with an interesting twist. Sophie Oak is a gem among the writing world. She’s utterly delish!
Thank you for one of the best series ever!

 Surprises by Brita Addams
Series: Romeo Club, Book #1
Publisher: Riptide Publishing
Genre: GLBT, Contemporary, Erotic Romance, M/M/M, Menage
Length: 25 pages
Summary:
Are you willing to put yourself in our hands?
Smart, successful, handsome, and thoroughly sick of the club scene, Don ventures into a popular upscale dating service. Aroused and intrigued by the boldfaced sexual queries on the Romeo Club’s application, he finds himself embellishing one answer after the next. Don thinks he’s taking control of his fate, but when he’s done, he ends up turning over a lot more than just his questionnaire to the dominant Adonis who runs the service.
In a private back room, beneath the snick of handcuffs, the slide of silk over his eyes, and not one hot mouth but two upon his skin, Don learns just how much more than matchmaking the Romeo Club has to offer a guy who doesn’t mind a few surprises.
Deb’s Review:
Brita Addams’ short read Surprises, Book One of the Romeo series, is a short trip to pleasure for Blake, Aaron and Donnie, who are all very unique in their own special way. I liked that Donnie was strong enough in his sexuality that he gave himself freely to his partners. Blake is the Dominate and quite powerful, which is something you can feel when he is in a scene with Donnie and Aaron. Aaron is just too adorable for his own good, and just imagining what his giggle sounds like makes me smile.
Even though this book is 25 pages, Surprises has a solid entertaining base. I truly want more because I want to know what makes Blake tick. If these three characters’ relationship was more developed, I think Surprises would make an awesome novella.
So in short, I think you will enjoy reading Surprises, as it was well worth my time. Ms. Addams has captured three yummy males in their most intriguing likeness and I adored them all.

 Siren Unleashed by Sophie Oak
Series: Texas Sirens, Book# 7
Publisher: Siren-Bookstrand Publishing
Genre: Erotic Contemporary, Menage, BDSM
Length: Novel
Summary:
Twin detectives Ben and Chase Dawson have been sent to investigate an unusual murder at a resort owned by Julian Lodge. Julian wants them to protect the prime suspect, a young submissive who was the last person to see the victim alive. The job seems simple until Ben and Chase discover that the beautiful submissive they both desire has a dark past.
Natalie Buchanan came to the Willow Fork Tranquility Spa seeking sanctuary after escaping the clutches of a twisted sadist. Working as a massage therapist at the resort has given her a chance to heal as well as access to the spa’s secret dungeon. But when one of her regular clients ends up dead on her table, Natalie fears that the monster she once escaped has come back to claim her.
As Natalie rediscovers the beauty of BDSM with her twin Masters, all three will be forced to confront her past.
Susan’s Review:
From the first time I was introduced to Ben and Chase, I knew they had a story to tell. I just didn’t know it would grab me by the shirt tail and not let me go. I should have known though, after all this is a Sophie Oak novel.
Working for powerful Dom Julian Lodge has its ups and downs. Heading off to Willow Fork to investigate whether a submissive murdered a man on her spa table just might be a simple trip, but then again, nothing in their lives has been simple so why start now?
 Natalie thought she could start her miserable life over, in a two bit town, at a spa that is known for its 5 star BDSM dungeon play. Boy was she wrong. Starting over doesn’t always mean trouble will leave you alone. In fact with Natalie, she appears to have tempted it outside to play with her.
Ben and Chase know from the first moment they see her that she is the one for them. But can they share without destroying each other or her? Great insight into the two tough muscle men Julian and everyone else who needs a hand uses. Tough on the outside, but these two hotties are all sensuous, sexy, and slick with their desire for Natalie on the inside.
Suspenseful up until the end, you will be cheering with joy when you meet their kid sister. Part of Ms. Oak’s charm is her uncanny way of weaving her characters into each other’s lives and in Siren Unleashed, Texas Sirens 7, you are, once again, in for a treat.

 Siren in Bloom by Sophie Oak
Publisher: Siren-Bookstrand Publishing
Genre: Erotic Contemporary Romance, Ménage
Length: 292 pages
Summary:
[Siren Ménage Everlasting: Erotic Cowboy Ménage a Trois Romance, M/F/M, consensual BDSM, public exhibition, spanking, sex toys, HEA]
For Leo Meyer, being the Dom in residence at The Club has been a perfect life. A strict daily routine free from emotional attachment has been safe and comfortable. But when the only woman he ever loved walks back into his life, his world is turned upside down.
Wolf Meyer has been restless since an injury ended his career in the Navy SEALs. Hoping to reconnect with his brother Leo, Wolf accepted a job with Julian Lodge. His first assignment is to train Shelley McNamara, a gorgeous sub with a troubled past.
Shelley came to The Club to forge a new life and heal her wounded heart. She never dreamed that exploring her dark fantasies with her new Master would leave her caught between two brothers.
When Shelley’s life is threatened, the Meyer brothers will have to work together and use all their training to save her life and claim her heart.
Note: There is no sexual relationship or touching for titillation between or among siblings.
A Siren Erotic Romance
Susan’s Review:
If you have read any of Sophie Oak’s Bliss books, then you know that one of the reasons she is so talented at what she does is how she seamlessly blends characters from other books together and keeps them all interacting with each other in a highly entertaining woven web. Siren in Bloom will not let you down.
We have watched dark, deadly, and delicious Leo Meyer rescue Shelley’s brother and brother-in-law and now we get to watch him rescue himself as he sets out to savor and seduce Shelley while readjusting to his kid brother, Wolf. I found Leo intense and interesting before, but nothing could have prepared me for this hidden, undiscovered side of Julian Lodge’s famous Dom trainer.
Kid brother, Wolf, is not too shabby himself. While we had met him in Bliss, he truly comes to life right before our eyes in Siren in Bloom. Brothers, same mother, equally different personalities, come together with just the right combination of sin, sex, and sacrifice. Shelley appeared a bit mousy before, but she has turned into a woman who knows who she wants and is ready to go the distance to find her happiness.
Keeping with tradition, you will reacquaint yourself with characters that will keep you waiting on pins and needles for their books to hit the presses. Hats off to Ms. Oak on yet another Siren book that you won’t be able to stop reading!

 Chasing Bliss by Sophie Oak
Series: Nights in Bliss, Colorado book 7
Publisher: Siren-Bookstrand, Inc.
Genre: Erotic Contemporary, Menage
Length: Novel
Summary:
Gemma Wells came to Bliss, Colorado, after a scandal cost her everything. Utterly lost, she’s built walls so high, she thinks no one can get through them. She’s done with love and friendship and all matters of the heart.
Jesse McCann and Cade Sinclair have floated through life, enjoying the world around them, but not becoming a part of it. One look at the pretty attorney and Jesse realizes he’s found a reason to stay put. Cade is crazy about her, but his dark past keeps him at arm’s length. He wants her, but he’s sure he doesn’t deserve her.
But a secret from Gemma’s past threatens to wreck their futures. Her fiancé is back and brings danger with him. Time is running out. Jesse and Cade have to melt this Ice Queen’s heart or she might not leave Bliss alive.
Susan’s Review:
I have to admit that every time I see a Bliss book, I tell myself, “there is no way this one is gonna be better than the others.” And every time, I finish, I am left with thoughts of how in the world can that woman keep getting better? Sophie Oak is definitely my hero, oops, heroine, because she truly kicks butt! Bliss’ citizens must take up a wall in her writing room with their family tree.
What I find most intriguing about Bliss and its characters, is that they just keep getting more involved with deep emotions and real issues, all part of the amazing way they come to life literally before us. I have to admit that when I was first introduced to Jesse and Cade, I thought they were some shady dudes. I mean really, since when do two studs just show up in town and decide to fix cars for awhile complete with muscles, shirtless, and with hair you can sink your hands into?
Gemma was a little hard for me to swallow at first because she was so needy, but at the same time, so oblivious to her needs that she was almost annoyingly allusive. She has all of the support in the world from her mom and her mom’s friend, yet has built this vision of who she was as a corporate big city woman, that she lost her country girl roots. She finds them with a little help from the faithful Bliss family and friends circle.
Jesse and Cade have to win the cake for being the most diverse characters with traits that don’t fit their body frame or personality. I love their sensitive attitude and Cade just melts your heart with his tough guy facade. I can’t wait for the next set of new friends to walk into Bliss. I now know that they will be just as strong as Gemma, Jesse, and Cade and will tug on my heart like all of the wonderful characters that had cameo appearances in Chasing Bliss, Nights in Bliss, Colorado 7.

 The Hot Floor by Josephine Myles
Publisher: Samhain Publishing
Genre: GLBT, M/M, Erotic Romance, Menage
Length: Novel
Summary:
Two plus one equals scorching hot fun.
Dumped by his boyfriend and reduced to living in a grotty bedsit, Josh Carpenter has gotten used to expecting the worst. Now he lives only for his job as a glassblower…and occasional glimpses of his sexy downstairs neighbors, Rai Nakamura and Evan Truman.
Every time he overhears the diminutive academic and the hunky plumber having loud and obviously kinky sex, Josh is overwhelmed with lust…and a longing for a fraction of what they have.
To his amazement, Rai and Evan find his embarrassing tendency to blush utterly charming, and the three men grow closer over the course of the long, hot summer. Despite Rai’s charming flirtation and Evan’s smoldering gaze, Josh is determined never to break his new friends’ loving bonds.
On the night a naked Josh falls—quite literally—into the middle of one of Rai and Evan’s marathon sex sessions, the force of their mutual attraction takes control. But just as Josh dares to hope, he senses a change. Leaving him to wonder if the winds of love are about to blow his way at last…or if history is about to repeat itself.
Warning: Contains one well-endowed stud with a sexy accent, one improbably toppy bottom boy with an unfortunate owl obsession, and one blushing naïf who can’t believe his luck. Also, the occasional indulgence in mathematical spanking and some shameless armpit sex.
Evelise’s Review:
Josephine Myles delivers a wonderfully, sensual tale in her novel The Hot Floor. Rai and Evan are long-time lovers who have been known to take a third to their bed; with ground rules. Enter Josh, another tenant at Walcot Terrace and secretly in love with Rai and Evan from afar. Josh admires the two men from a distance and even though the two men flirt with him, he is determined not to come between them. Rai and Evan take a shine to Josh and invite him into their bed and lives and end up breaking all “the rules”.
 The Hot Floor lives up to the words in the title leaving the reader panting breathlessly and wanting more. The story line itself is sweet yet not sappy, making all the characters believable and likable. What I love most about Ms. Myle’s style of writing is her charismatic, colorful characters with a language all unto themselves. The men of her stories are not the typical, everyday Joe and each character brings something unique to the table. In The Hot Floor, there is a bossy bottom, the burly plumber and the shy glass blower; all adding a unique perspective to a brilliant ménage.
She delves into very real relationship issues; jealousy, neurosis, insecurities; all the trappings that occur as you are building a meaningful bond. Each man also gives as much as he takes. Rai, Evan and Josh all strive to make the relationship work in a world where a homosexual couple may not be mainstream, yet alone a ménage. The secondary characters add pizazz to the story as well. Denise and Dylan are wonderful friends, who generate laughs and family, as is Stella, the elderly neighbor.
Ms. Myles truly has a grasp on writing a ménage story where all the partners are equals and the HEA is truly believable. She had me laughing at the antics, wanting to hug anyone of the men at any given time, and sweating at the sex scenes. A definite winner in this reviewer’s opinion.

 Plenty to Come by Lara Valentine
Series: Plenty, Fl. Book 1
Publisher: Siren-Bookstrand Publishing
Genre: Erotic Contemporary, Menage
Length: 186 pages
Summary:
[Ménage Amour: Erotic Ménage a Trois Romance, M/F/M, spanking, sex toys, HEA]
Giving up on the big city, Cassie moves to the tiny town of Plenty, Florida. Falling in love with Zachary and Chase Harper was easy. They ignite a fire inside her hotter and brighter than the Florida sun.
Intense and dominating Zachary Harper and his brother, charming and playful Chase, are tired of casual relationships and one-night stands. They’re looking for a woman they can share their life with, together. When they meet Cassie, they immediately feel that this woman just might be the one. Cassie is just as drawn to them, feeling safe and loved in their strong arms.
But not everyone is glad about Cassie’s newfound safety and happiness. Can Zachary and Chase keep Cassie safe when her past shows up and wants her dead?
Note: There is no sexual relationship or touching for titillation between or among siblings.
A Siren Erotic Romance
Dakota’s Review:
 Now I want to visit Plenty. I think I fell in love with the town just as much as I lusted after Zachary and Chase. Ms Valentine did an excellent job of creating the small town atmosphere with a definite twist to allow polymonogomous relationships to thrive. In a way the set up of this town reminds me a lot of another author’s town, but set in Florida opposed to Texas. Either way, I couldn’t help but fall in love with the way people around Plenty came together to protect a woman they barely knew because she was now a resident.
Now what to say about our sexy heroes other than the fact they are HAWT, know how to please a woman in bed and happen to be loved by everyone in Plenty? Well, I guess what struck me most about Chase and Zachary was the courtliness they showed Cassie. It’s very rare to see a man open a car door for a lady, pull out her chair or even go on something as innocent as a picnic with a bit of smooching. So I found Plenty to Come to be quite refreshing in that aspect. Add to this sizzling romance, a villain who is obsessed with the heroine and you have a first class read and one which I’ll definitely read again.

 Checking It Twice by Jodi Redford
Publisher: Samhain publishing
Genre: Contemporary, Erotic Romance, Menage a Trois
Length: 188 pages
Summary:
The only item on Jana Colton’s Christmas list this year is Kevin Monahan. Preferably naked in her bed. The delicious, hunky chef has been resisting her forever, but she’s pulling out all the sexy stops this holiday. Especially since his acceptance of an out-of-state job threatens to nix her quest to rock his boxers off.
Jana has always been Kevin’s personal Kryptonite, but giving in to her isn’t an option. Relationships are a four-letter word in his book. He cares far too much for Jana to let his emotional baggage ultimately break her heart.
With the arrival of his best friend, Nick Pappas, the balance of temptation shifts. From their past history of sharing women, Nick knows every dirty trick it takes to lead Kevin astray, and he’s not afraid to use them. Particularly since Nick’s convinced that Jana is exactly what Kevin needs to be happy and whole.
Their game of seduction quickly snowballs into something that feels an awful lot like love—in triplicate. But with Kevin dead set on leaving Michigan, there’s a real possibility it could be a blue Christmas for them all.
Warning: This book contains an extremely tormented voyeur, a very naughty and not so saintly Nick, a liberal application of candy cane-flavored body paint, a buzzing butterfly, and enough raunchy fun on a sex swing to melt a snowman…or two.
Shelly’s Review:
 Jana has tried for years to seduce her best friend, Kevin, but he won’t give in and give her the satisfaction she’s craving. Then Kevin’s estranged friend, Nick, shows up to try and make amends. Nick knows Kevin’s sexual past and he tries to help Jana break through Kevin’s insecurities and commit to a relationship. They’ve previously shared women, but can they share this one woman, Jana, that they’ve both come to love?
Oh, wow! I don’t think I’ve read a hotter, more intensely erotic book in my life. Checking It Twice is full of explosive menage sex from start to finish, written with amazing ingenuity. This is not a raunchy book, but it’s jam-packed with emotional, sensual, explicitly erotic sex that will keep you hot-and-bothered from page one. I wanted to read it slowly to soak up the full impact, but I just couldn’t do it. The pages flew by at an alarming rate and I was already wanting to read it again, before I actually even finished it.
In my opinion, this is an excellent erotic romance and Ms. Redford writes with experience, practice and creativity. Checking It Twice is awesome and I highly recommend it!

 Talson’s Net by Marie Harte
Series: Talson Temptations
Publisher: Ellora’s Cave Publishing
Genre: Erotic Romance, Sci-Fi, Menage
Length: 95 pages
Summary:
Book three in the Talson Temptation series.
Kidnapping Rowe Trainer, co-heir to Chartrell Shipping, might not have been the smartest thing Val Talson’s ever done, but he wants answers, fast. He couldn’t have expected the beautiful little bully to be half-human, nor could he have anticipated that she could turn the tables on him so easily. She’s powerful, and he’s learned to be wary.
His violent arousal in her presence makes little sense. Lust he appreciates, but the deeper draw to his rival baffles him. Soon he can’t think of anything but Rowe. When he finds her again, he gets more than he bargained for—attraction not only to Rowe, but to her bodyguard as well. Then add the shock of her Selection—a female Otra’s readiness to mate.
Val doesn’t intend to give in easily. He’ll handle rogue saboteurs, Rowe’s larger-than-life bodyguard, and the idea that he’s entered the Testing, the time in a male Otra’s life when he’s ready to bond to his destined mate. As for Rowe…Val’s more than willing to give her what she deserves. And then some.
Publisher Note: This story was previously published elsewhere and has been revised for Ellora’s Cave.
Dakota’s Review:
What can I say about this series? I absolutely love the Talson Temptations Series. Talson’s Net has built up on the second and third books as we see Val get his own woman. Of course the path of love isn’t always easy and Val’s surely isn’t. From being tied up by his future mate to the unexpected attraction to her bodyguard, the poor man has his hands full. Not that the arrogant pup doesn’t deserve all he has coming, because he does.
Ms. Harte has once more captured this reviewer’s attention with her creativity and wonderful background/subplots that she’s woven into this steamy triad of lust. As usual, I read this book very quickly as the story just whisked me away. I loved the chemistry between all three of the characters and even the confusion and angst that Val goes through to find his happily ever after in Rowe’s arms. Personally I can’t wait to read the last book in this series,Talson’s Match Kudos to Ms. Harte

 Shane’s Need by Kiera West
Series: Great Wolves of Passion, Alaska 4
Publisher: Siren-Bookstrand Publishing
Genre: Erotic, Paranormal Romance, Menage
Length: 86 pages
Summary:
[Siren LoveXtreme Forever: Erotic Paranormal Ménage Romance, M/F/M/M/M/M/M, werewolves, light bondage, spanking]
Shane has always been the joker of the Dillon clan, but he does it to hide the scars from his childhood. He has never shared what the years away from the pack with his mentally unstable mother were like. As he starts to fall in love with Eve, he finds himself unable to ignore the nightmares that haunt his nights.
Eve has always sensed there is more to Shane than he shows the world. As she tries to find out what lies beneath the surface, she sees the dimensions of his personality and attempts to help him deal with the wounds that resurface. But an argument leaves them at odds, and Eve in the path of danger.
NOTE! You are purchasing Siren’s newest serialized imprint, the LoveXtreme Forever Series. This is the fourth book in the Great Wolves of Passion, Alaska collection. These books are not stand alone and must be read in the numbered order. Each book may end on a cliffhanger but usually with a happy-for-now for the heroine and one or more men. The final book contains a happily forever after for the heroine and all her men.
A Siren Erotic Romance
Susan’s Review:
Fourth in the Great Wolves of Passion: Alaska series, Shane’s Need really lets us get a better insight into Shane, the normal joking one of the clan. As we learn why Shane is the way he is, we come to meet other members of his family. Eve loves Shane for who he is but after many wolves are found dead on the clan’s land, she seems to snuggle more into him and on him. We have always had a small glimpse into each man Eve has fallen for in the series, and this time we get to delve into the deliciously sexy Shane. Not to be outdone by his brother and cousins, Shane is one complicated wolf that just yearns for his woman’s love and safety.
Ms. West pens a wonderful mix of focusing on Shane while reminding the reader what is so special about each of the other men in this pack. Eve is one lucky woman who really has yet to blossom into who she is destined to be. Ms. West does another fantastic job of bringing Eve to life more and more. With each book, we learn more about her strength and desire to make the pack her future.
The only area I would love to see strengthened is the dialogue between the characters giving Eve some realistic comments and allowing her to be the strong woman that she is inside. Often times, I find her dialogue to be for the purpose of setting up the sex scene without any definition of the true character she is inside. Allowing Eve to grow a bit more is probably in the author’s plans, but I am just impatient and want her to blossom into the feminine mistress of the pack she is destined to love.

 Unexpected Taydelaan by Rachel Clark
Publisher: Siren-Bookstrand Publishing
Genre: Erotic, Sci-Fi, Menage, M/M/F
Length: 78 pages
Summary:
[Ménage Amour: Erotic Sci-Fi Ménage a Trois Romance, M/M/F, with M/M]
Declan loves Luke.
Born on Earth, Declan spent most of his life believing he was human—and gay. Luke is Sesturian and happy to explain the mating practices of their people. But learning they have another mate out there—a woman who might one day come between them—has always overshadowed Declan’s happiness.
Until they meet Keira.
Keira thinks she’s falling in love with a gay couple. She knows it’s silly but can’t seem to pull back the emotional attachment to the two men. Obviously it’s her fevered imagination playing tricks on her. She cannot possibly be developing a mental link with Luke’s thoughts and emotions—no matter how many times Luke explains his alien status. But even if that were true, what about Declan?
What happens if he learns of the intimate mating link he doesn’t share?
A Siren Erotic Romance
Dakota’s Review:
I was immediately intrigued by Unexpected Taydelaan by Ms. Rachel Clark. It appealed to both my naughty side and the little girl in me who loves science fiction. While this book is set on good old Earth, there is just enough differences in Luke and Declan to be very tempting. But what really struck me about this book is the emotional upheaval that all three characters go through – including Luke who seems to be the most torn. Ms. Clark has crafted a well played emotional triangle in Unexpected Taydelaan and I, the softy that I am, cried several times during this compelling story.
With that being said, I will also not discount the steamy love scenes that Ms. Clark has penned. As a reviewer who happens to love triads where the men love on each other as much as they do on the heroine, Unexpected Taydelaan definitely fulfilled my need. I will have to say the only thing that brought my score down a bit was the fact that this reviewer thought that the way the author overcame the characters’ struggles was a bit too neat and tidy. I honestly think it was a bit too easy. However, I will say that Unexpected Taydelaan is well worth the read and I look forward to reading more from Ms. Clark

Length: 262 pages
Summary:

Bliss, Colorado, gave Hope McLean a second chance at life, but she’s hiding a dark secret.
Raised as brothers, James Glen and Noah Bennett always dreamed of finding a woman to share their lives on the Circle G ranch. James would run the ranch, while Noah served the town of Bliss as the resident vet. But when a woman came between the brothers, Noah fled for New York City and James was left to struggle for the ranch’s survival alone.
Now that Noah has returned, he will do anything to repay his debt to James. When he sees Hope, he knows she is the woman they both have been waiting for. But just as their love begins to bloom, a nightmare from Hope’s past returns to claim her.
To save Hope, and themselves, they will have to reclaim the brotherhood that was shattered and fight for their future.
Susan’s Review:
The months patiently waiting for another Bliss book really does pay off! I have to remind myself of that whenever I am impatiently waiting for the next story about people in this eclectic Colorado town. Sophie Oak might as well be the mayor for this delightful town that welcomes honest, decent people with open arms into their equally open and honest lifestyle.
Hope has kind of been in the background for a few stories, there lending support, being herself, but never really having her own storyline. Pure Bliss is her story of what makes her tick, who she is and why she has chosen to stay in Bliss and make it her home. It won’t be her home unless she can get resident sexy rancher Jamie and his equally studly veterinarian brother Noah to love her as much as she loves them.
An amazing storyline awaits you as you delve into the lives of these men who were raised as brothers but share no blood. Their story will tug at your heart strings and make you want to reach through the screen of your reading device and tug their hair to make them get a grip before they blow it. Have no fear, Hope’s story is just as gut wrenching. I love how the stories of the characters played more together this time. With each passing book, the intertwining of Bliss residents really make these stories come to life and have you cheering for them all. Once again, Ms. Oak hits one out of the park with Pure Bliss!

Holly is a strong sexy character that I enjoyed tremendously. I feel that she grew more with time. I am glad that she came later. Now what’s a gal to do when two hot males go gunning for her?
