RELEASE BLITZ, REVIEW & GIVEAWAY: Permanent Bliss (Bliss #3.5) - BJ Harvey




Title: Permanent Bliss
Series: Bliss #3.5
Author: BJ Harvey
Release Date: August 25, 2014


Synopsis

Makenna Lewis never thought she would be the one walking down the aisle to marry her superhero. But then again, she hadn't expected Daniel Winters to crash into her life and tilt her world off its axis two years earlier. As they celebrate their last days of singledom, they find themselves battling over the guest list, managing the in-laws, and dealing with last minute disasters that threaten to disrupt their special day.

In true Bliss fashion, we’ll see freak-outs, awkward situations, hilarity, drama, and cringe-worthy moments as Mac and Daniel prepare for one of the most important days of their lives. Join the Bliss gang as they watch two of their own walk down the aisle and conclude their happily ever after.

This companion novella follows on from the end of True Bliss and will lead into Finding Bliss – Noah ‘Walking Dildo’ Taylor’s story.

***Disclaimer – Hot sex, drunken texts, horny phone calls, and a wedding anticipated by all but one. And, of course, a few freak outs along the way (but NOT the kind you’re used to) because that’s how Mac rolls ***

Review

★★★★★
Blissful Stars!
ARC kindly received for an honest review

"Always and forever, Superman."
"Never doubted it, gorgeous."

Daniel and Mac are back! See that, it even rhymed! The hilariously adorable couple is gracing everyone again with their funny banters, steamy sexy sex scenes, and sugar sweet lovin'.

BJ Harvey did not disappoint in giving us the story of these two after Temporary Bliss and the glimpses we saw of them from the other stories in this fun romantic series. 

I was excited when the author announced that there will be a novella for Daniel and Mac, after those bonus chapters at the end of True Bliss. Babies, wedding preparation, marriage… family life, I am a sucker for these kinds of HEA no matter how cliché it may be, it just all depends on how it's written. BJ Harvey made sure that this installment, Permanent Bliss, is as enjoyable and sexy as it was in the beginning of their relationship. 

"Then there is my deep-seated fear that Mac is going to bolt. I know it's irrational, especially when nothing she's done in the past eighteen months has given me any indication that she is unhappy or not committed to our future together…"

Fourteen days before the wedding and with two almost 2-year olds, how much craziness can the Superman and Gorgeous and well, the entire  gang, get into? There's the very amusing bachelor and bachelorette parties, the best man and his plus one issue, and there's Daniel's teeny tiny bit uncertainty that Mac might change her mind and realize her previous "lifestyle" works better for her than being a mom and a soon-to-be-wife. 

"He treats me with respect, he listens to what I say and everything in our lives is discussed and agreed upon. We're in a true partnership, not just two people in a relationship."

But Mac proved Daniel (and me) wrong. I love seeing the love between them grow deeper and that Mac is sensitive to Daniel's feelings and makes sure that he knows she's committed, she tells him her feelings without any qualms. I believe their relationship is more stable and not just because they now have kids but because they communicate and in some way, more secure about each other.

I like how BJ Harvey writes this series, with spunk and romance very well blended!

I look forward to more novellas on the gang!

Stars: 5 stars!
Recommended to: Fans of the Bliss series, Daniel and Mac's story. This is a sweet HEA for them!
POV: First person. Dual POV.
Series: Yes. Standalone. 
Cliffhanger: No.
EXTRA COMMENT: I recommend you get on this now! This is a quick read and will keep you smiling for a an hour or two. ;) 







Excerpt


I’m riveted and distracted as he walks around to the driver’s window and hands him the money to pay my fare before he walks back around and opens my door. Clutching my bag of dirty fun in one hand and my purse in the other, I look up at him in awe as he stands there with his hand out and a perceptive grin.

“C’mon, gorgeous. Time to come inside.”

“Thought that was your job,” I say, forgetting that I’m sitting inside the cab and within earshot of the driver.

Daniel laughs before grabbing my hand and helping me to my very shaky feet, causing me to reach out and grab his biceps. “Shit,” I mutter under my breath as I’m gently moved sideways so that he can shut the car door behind me.

With a double tap on the roof of the cab, he bends slightly before scooping me up into his arms, one wrapped around my shoulders and the other underneath my knees. “Whoa, Superman. Pulling out all the stops?” I lean forward so that my mouth is right by his ear. “You do know I’m a sure thing tonight, right?”





 Also Available

#1 Temporary Bliss



Makenna Lewis cringes at any mention of the word commitment. She doesn’t want or need a relationship, but she does like sex (who doesn't).



That explains Noah, Sean, and Zander, her three 'friends with benefits'.


They know the score, they know they're not the only one, and each of them provide her with a different physical need that she craves and enjoys.

Until a late night encounter with the delicious Daniel Winters turns her preconceived notion of no-commitment completely on its head.

Soon she finds herself feeling things she vowed never to feel again, and when Daniel pushes for more than she’s willing to give, she falters.

What do you do when something that you’ve known to be so wrong in the past feels so damn right?

If you’re Mac, you run and hide.

But is Daniel the type of man who takes no for an answer?

*Disclaimer - There is absolutely no cheating in this book. However, this book does contain descriptive and super hot sex scenes that will make you blush and leave you hot and bothered. Make sure you have you husband, partner, boyfriend or significant other nearby when reading, or else batteries. Lots and lots of batteries*






#2 True Bliss

  
She watched her best friend find her superhero.

Now she wants her turn.

Despite a run of bad dates with Mr. Wrong, Mr. Boring, Mr. Bad Breath, Mr. Grabby Hands, and even Mr. Say I Love You After One Date To Get Into Your Pants, Kate McGuinness is more determined than ever to find the one.

Having tried everything else, she turns to the internet in a last ditch attempt to find her elusive prince.

But Kate doesn't want an everyday, run of the mill love.

She wants the kind of love that makes your heart skip a beat. The kind of love that makes you dance in the rain and bottle up the sunset. The once in a lifetime kind of love that authors write about, musicians sing about, and lovers dream about.

Could a certain police officer in training, who has come to her rescue in the past, be the one to swoop in and save her heart?

What if the love Kate desperately seeks has been in front of her the whole time?

She just needs to open her eyes to see it...

*Disclaimer: This book contains a hot as hell stripper with a penchant for public sex and exhibitionism who may or may not succeed in bringing out the inner firecracker in all of us. Oh, and don't forget the batteries.*




#3 Blissful Surrender


This is a story of Sean Miller, a dom that will have your panties diving for cover with an eyebrow quirk. That will have even the strongest woman dropping to their knees in submission with a piercing stare, and Samantha Richards, a female cop who’s tough, seemingly impenetrable shell is strong enough to resist everyone except the one man it was build up to protect her against.

**Disclaimer – If you thought the first two Bliss books were hot, you ain’t seen nothing yet. Creative use of handcuffs, batons, a club scene you have to read to believe, and a tough as nails dominant who is blindsided when the one woman strong enough to disarm him threatens his resolve not to let his past dictate his future.**



Coming Soon
#4 Finding Bliss
They call me the walking dildo.

Gratifying? Yes.

Something to be proud of? Certainly.

What I wish to be known for? Absolutely not!

Watching my best friend and my old fuck buddy walk down the aisle blissfully happy has just reiterated the fact that I’m thirty and perpetually single.

I thought I’d found someone I wanted to spend my life with but sometimes you have to face facts and realize it’s never gonna happen.

Funny how it just takes one person to make you finally see sense.

My name is Dr Noah Taylor and this is the year my life changed for the better.

*Disclaimer – This book features hot sex, filthy language, misuse of on-call rooms and the overdue redemption of the fake orgasm*
