About this eBook

Elisa Leal is looking for some joy in her life. Years of tragedy and struggle took their toll, and now she is searching for new connections to raise her spirits. When she discovers proof that her biological father is alive, she decides to find him and make contact. Her quest leads her to the small town of Bliss, Colorado, and the strangest man she’s ever met—Mel Hughes. He believes in aliens and sasquatch conspiracies, but he’s also kind of awesome. And there might be even more in Bliss to make her smile.

Sylvan Dean and Hale Galloway have enjoyed wandering their way through life, always in motion. Always searching for the woman who could make their life complete. Living in Bliss made them realize it’s time to settle down. Van’s finally going to college and has a job lined up with his brother when he finishes. That job is in Dallas, and while Hale is happy for Van, he can’t imagine leaving Bliss behind. It feels like everything is coming apart until they meet Elisa. She’s the one they have been searching for, and she is worth the wait.

The future looks bright until the guys’ past comes back to haunt them. Danger lurks in every corner, but it may not be the biggest threat to their happily ever after. The citizens of Bliss know how to handle a killer, but handling Elisa, Van, and Hale might require some cosmic intervention.

Ratings and reviews

I love the town of Bliss! It truly is my happy place, but it also holds so many emotion, because you can’t help but love the people who live there. It’s a town where you feel so much about Mel, that three simple words “that’s your dad” had me bawling like a baby. It’s a town where, when the bad guy is being bad, you cheer and pump your fist in the air when Maurice the Moose strolls into the action. It’s a town where families are made, bonds are forged, and love is love.

I would say, this is the best Bliss story? They are all pretty amazing! Elisa comes to Bliss seeking her biological father after living through some major life changes. There she meets up with Van and Hale who have been looking for the person who will anchor them and find that they both have a connection with Elisa. Their life will forever be changed along with her father Mel. Quirky, entertaining, sweet easy read story that is a must read!

As danger rears its head, Elisa will be in its sight and Van and Hale will need all their skills to protect the woman who has brought happiness into their lives. Coming back to Bliss is like coming home and I love that the towns folk are all in one another’s business This was another well written story that will reel you in and keep you on the edge of your seat whilst reading.
