Review / Release Blitz: Wild Bliss (Nights in Bliss, Colorado #14) by Lexi Blake writing as Sophie Oak

Wild Bliss by Lexi Blake is now live!

Sabrina Leal moved to Bliss looking for a new start. She’s in charge of building a school system from scratch and is excited about the challenge. What she didn’t count on was the surliest bar owner she’s ever met. Sawyer Hathaway gets under her skin in the most annoying way. He’s arrogant and sometimes rude, and she can’t stop thinking about him. It’s easier to ignore him when it’s only Sawyer. But when she meets his best friend, Wyatt, he’s light to Sawyer’s darkness, and the combination calls to Sabrina in a way she might not be able to deny.

Sawyer likes things the way they are. Alone. No serious connections. Just him simmering in his own unresolved trauma. Like a real man should. But the new schoolteacher is making it hard. And the reappearance of Wyatt in his life isn’t helping. Years before, Sawyer had joined an outlaw MC when his brother had gotten in trouble. Wyatt had been a true friend, and when he needs a short-term place to stay, Sawyer can’t turn him out. Short term turns way longer, and the baddest man in Bliss has to admit it’s not terrible to have a friend. But there’s no way he’s getting involved with the sweetest thing he’s ever met.

Wyatt wants Sabrina the minute he sees her. He’s spent his whole life in the equivalent of a criminal, violent cult, and he wants some softness. He wants the white picket fence dream of Bliss. His best friend. Their wife. Throw in a super-cute rescue dog and a couple of kids and Wyatt would be in heaven. When his scheming gets all of them snowed in together, he knows he’s got his shot at making this work.

But the MC isn’t done with Wyatt or Sawyer, and Sabrina is exactly the bargaining chip they need…

MY REVIEW

Change is afoot in Bliss. Oh nothing too crazy, they're just building a school and they need someone to head it. Enter Sabrina, teacher of choice. She's here to be near her sister Elisa, and just may stay now that the town's billionaire is offering her a dream job. Too bad the only man to pique her interest, the town grump, Sawyer, has soundly rejected her. But he's got a friend who's his opposite, and he is fine!

Wyatt came to Bliss because Sawyer's here. They bonded when they were both in the MC, and now that he's out, Sawyer's his only option. He hopes their friendship is strong enough that Sawyer will let him stay with him until he gets back on his feet. But when Sabrina comes to their cabin in need of some help, she'll test their friendship. Not only is Sawyer just as into Sabrina as he is, he's not admitting it for well, Sawyer reasons. Wyatt's got his work cut out for him if he wants Sabrina to be theirs.

Sawyer is a broken man. He lives in Bliss, but he doesn't really belong. Or so he thinks. He's so set on this idea that he's not a good man, and that the town of Bliss doesn't want him, that it takes his friend Wyatt, and the woman they both have feelings for (Sawyer doesn't say the word love) to get inside his mind and make him realize that he's a vital part of not just their trio, but of their town too. And when the MC comes for Wyatt, it will take Sawyer, Sabrina, and their town to come to his rescue and help put them back together.

It's so good to be back in Bliss, where throuples are in, and love is in the air. We're finally getting to grumpy, mysterious Sawyer's story, and damn is it good. Sawyer's grumpy for sure, but that grump is hiding a lot of pain. It's only when Wyatt comes back into his life, and they decide to claim Sabrina, that he's able to shed some of that pain. Their relationship is a bit angsty, as Sawyer's scars cause a lot of tension among the 3, but there are laughs when some of Bliss's quirkier residents meddle and give "advice." Of course there's some action, some of it intense, when the MC comes to cause havoc, but in the end, this trio makes it to the other side, decidedly happy and in love, even if Sawyer still has a hard time saying it. I love this menage - it's balanced perfectly between the emotional and the physical, each of the 3 is layered, lovable, and definitely individually nuanced. I can't wait for the next trio to fall in love in Bliss next, now.
