[Paige Rook · Rating 5 out of 5]

Finally after almost a month of work and trying to read at the same time I have finished this book and it was AMAZING, it was hot, sweet, funny and nail biting all at the same time. I can't wait to see what else B J Harvey brings out. But I am going to miss these guys, especially Mac and Superman

A Harem of Blissful Beauty

The first book of the Bliss series is where I found and fell in love with BJ Harvey’s incredible writing and to have finally read the whole Harem is something I’m so proud to have done. I love reading a fabulous series and to binge read this one over a few weeks - absolute perfection!!

I’ve reviewed each book individually and you’ll find the reviews for them at the respective links. But here’s a one liner from each review and my individual ratings...

Wishing for my own Superman

My review of Temporary Bliss: https://nicandbooks.com/2018/03/28/wi...
"This romance is an easy read and yet - in true BJ fashion - doesn’t shy away from dealing with some major issues."

Wishing for a fairytale ending

My review of True Bliss: https://nicandbooks.com/2018/03/28/wi...
"Having got hints at their connection in the first book, I was glad to see the built upon and what we get is a beautiful story about finding love when you least expect it.â€

Wishing for surrender

My review of Blissful Surrender: https://nicandbooks.com/2018/03/28/wi...
"There were laughs - when Zander and Sean finally meet and make their past connection, I seriously lol’d - there were tears in my eyes as I relived Sean and Sam’s past and there was definite arousal because OMG, Dom Sean is seriously hot!â€

Wishing for a Wedding

My review of Permanent Bliss: https://nicandbooks.com/2018/03/28/wi...
"I especially enjoyed this story being in dual perspectives, as it’s the first time we’ve got to get inside Superman’s head and I really liked the time spent looking at things from his POV."

Wishing for Bliss

My review of Finding Bliss: https://nicandbooks.com/2018/03/28/wi...
"Noah’s story rounds off Mac’s crew of HEAs, and it was so refreshing to see the “Walking Dildo†- as he was affectionately (and appropriately) nicknamed - find a woman who finally brought him to his knees."

Overall this is a series definitely worth buying and reading ASAP because I assure you that you won’t be disappointed.

“I pull back and look up at him, struck by the sincerity in his eyes. In that moment, I don’t care what’s happened in the past; I just care about the here and now. Too much can happen in an instant.”


Heat Rating:





5 Blissful stars! BJ Harvey knows how to write stories that tug at your heart!





Okay seriously, this has got to be one of my favorite boxed sets! It’s every book in the bliss series and each one is amazing! There’s not one I could pick as my favorite, honestly. They all stand up on their own, in their own ways! BJ definitely knows how to write sexy books with deep characters and tons of heat!

Star Rating - ****.5

Wow there are not enough words to describe this hot read chronicling the lives of Mac, Daniel and their motley crew of friends including Mac's Ex's her friends with benefits. Having been initiated into the world of the Bliss/Game series' late on when I stumbled on to a copy of Game Player (the first book in the game series which follows on from Bliss) I did wonder how the group dynamics had been formed. You had 4 men having slept with the same woman best friends and their partners 4 strong women the best of friends one of whom had slept with the others partners. I wondered how it had worked out and quickly put the Bliss series on to my TBR to read and I was not disappointed.

With flashbacks, and the stories told from joint POVs this book had it all, actually this series had it all. I loved Mac and Kate's relationship the best friends calling each other out and challenging the other to do things outside their comfort zone. In fact that is what happens when Mac meets dreamy Daniel on the L and Kate her best friend challenges her to wait 3 dates before giving him an all access pass a change for Mac who had a stable of Friends with benefits that had all access passes. I wondered what humorous comment would next come from the pair especially when Mac realised that Kate had eyes for none other than Zander a member of her 'FWB'. With Mac plotting and planning helping Zander in his quest to get with Kate.

My favourite couple of the Bliss series has to be Noah and Zoe when the pair meet it's just explosive but with an over protective brother like Zander knowing Noah's past tricks he has to pull out all the stops to storm the gate. My least favourite couple of the series was Sean and Sam I struggled to connect with police officer Sam and a Dom is not my favourite kind of Hero but as a whole this series was a 4.5 star read full of hot sex and humour, there are a few typos along the way that I wish had been picked up in editing but hopefully they will be updated soon.

I am going to breakdown each book in the series for you. I hope that helps...

Temporary Bliss
This is the first book in what I am sure will be an awesome series. There is a lot of laughter in this book… Just what the doctor ordered. It was awesome to read about a woman who had commitment issues for a change. Supermen is just too much for her to resist or is he??? You must read to find out.

True Bliss
She is looking for her prince charming. Will she find him in the ex-stripper turned policeman? He has got moves and then some. Is it too much for her to resist? This is a great story about love and life. Friendship and lovers. A must read for any hopeless romantic who likes a bit of sexy with their stories.

Blissful Surrender
Charming, Dominant, Sexy, Alpha male…Check, he is all that and more. She is Smart, Sexy, Strong, and oh so confused. Will the mistake she made years ago prevent her from having it all? Will he be able to overlook the past in order to have the future he wants? All these question will be answered and more. Read how he teaches her that love and surrender do not make you weak. How the love and trust in a relationship can make you stronger. I hope you enjoy this book as much as I did.

Permanent Bliss
This was a great continuance of Mac and Superman. It was awesome to see what was going on with them and getting the next storyline set up. Mac and Superman are such a great couple, they deserve a HEA!

Finding Bliss
Oh man, this story is so good. Poor Dr. Taylor, he has fallen hard and she is not sure if she should believe him. A drunken kiss, a punch in the face, and an ex from he!! and he is fighting an uphill battle. Can the good doctor win the girl? You will have to read and find out for yourself. I will be having pancakes for dinner while you read about it…LOL!

[Jennifer Pierson · Rating 5 out of 5]

WOW WOW WOW! I'm sitting here kicking myself for not reading these books before now, as I absolutely LOVED LOVED LOVED every one of them, and I couldn't get enough. Temporary Bliss is Mac and Daniel's story. True Bliss is Kate and Zander's story. Blissful Surrender is Sam and Sean's story. Permanent Bliss is a wedding thrown in, (and no not going to reveal who, you'll just have to read it)! And Finding Bliss is about the WD Dr. Noah and Zoe's story. There's simply too much amazing goodness in this complete Box Set, so I'm not going to even try. But I will say, that everyone of these stories the character development is fantastic, and as the secondaries interchange, they are a very colorfully hilarious cast! The hotness factor is simply off the charts, full on FIERY FLAMES of sexy scene goodness that will not only melt panties, but actually set panty drawers on fire as well! There was so much well placed humor, that I spent 48 hours between hot flashing, and laughing my behind off! Seriously, my stomach hurts badly now from laughing, not to mention spitting my drink out more than once. B.J. Harvey's talented writing style is absolutely BRILLIANT! I was captivated from the very first page of first book, and I never looked back. Like seriously, I only put my kindle down to get food, and use the bathroom, (and it's football weekend)! I lived in her world for almost two days, as I devoured every word. A couple of twists made for the f-bomb parade going through the house, and the emotional feels were powerful as I physically felt everyone of them! I'm so glad I finally read this brilliant series, and I cannot WAIT to devour every other book she has out as well. The moral of this review is that I HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY and HIGHLY RECOMMEND my new best friends to EVERYONE, and 5 Stars aren't enough!

[Phoenix · Rating 4 out of 5]

While each book is a standalone HEA, I've always enjoyed reading series like this because it feels like an extended epilogue for the characters that have come before. Such was the case with Mac and Superman Daniel in Temporary Bliss, followed by Zander and Kate in True Bliss, Sean and Sammy in Blissful Surrender and finally Nick and Zoe in Finding Bliss. Note that between Sean and Sammy and Nick and Zoe's stories there's a novella called Permanent Bliss which tells the story of Mac and Daniel's wedding.
Mac is the heroine who connects all the heroes together since she's friends with benefits with Zander, Sean and Nick (at the same time!) before finally settling down with Daniel. I loved how their relationship unfolded but felt like each book that followed, while still great and certainly don't disappoint in the dirty-talking sex scenes, was weaker in the sense that some of the plot points weren't as fully-developed as I would've liked (e.g. Zoe's stalker-ex) and the endings seemed a little rushed (e.g. Sean and Sammy).
In hindsight, I can't help wondering whether I would have noticed these failings if I hadn't read them in quick succession like this and was able to compare with each book relatively fresh in my mind.
Overall, if you love strong, modern and sexy heroines who meet their matches in sensitive yet loving alpha heroes (oxymoron, I know) you'll enjoy this series. The dialogue is engaging and the alternative first person POV generally makes for some pretty hilarious inner-monologues.

[Rhiannon · Rating 5 out of 5]

McKenna, better known as Mac captured my heart from the beginning. After a devastating relationship, Mac swears off love. Mac is left having to make a decision between herself & letting love back in. I loved this story. It was full off sexy men, angst, & best friendliness. Everything I look forward to in a book.

But it doesn't stop there. This series is the gift that keeps on giving. I kid you not, every story has something & someone new. Of course, Mac is the one person that connects them all. I love that they're all intertwined together as it gives you a view into the future & an opportunity to see which couple is doing what.

I fell hard for this series, I'm not going to lie. I laughed, seriously spit out my drink a couple of times. The girls are fierce & not afraid to speak their minds, dirty or not. I felt like I was chillin with my own group of friends. And the guys, could they be any hotter?

If there's a series to recommend, this would be it! It's whitty, hilarious, charming, sexy, did I mention full of hot men? Um yeah, go get it. You won't be disappointed.

[Kristy · Rating 5 out of 5]

What an incredible boxset, each story from BJ Harvey's "Bliss" series. I hadn't read any of these books prior too starting this, but once I started reading book 1... well I was HOOKED! I loved how I was able to see the journey to true love for each of the characters. I'm not going to ruin all the juicy details in between, I'll leave that to when your able to read them (plus I don't do spoilers). I loved being told the different POV's from the leading female & male characters, especially when the next book gave you another view of the previous couples journey & then their own. The high's, lows, history... the steamy scenes.... were freaking HOT... & definitely not repetative kept me riveted from start to finish.

[Krista Ricchi · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is such am amazing boxset. I don't know which book I loved more. BJ definitely has an incredible talent for writing steamy romances. The connection between the characters made each book flow into the other so it felt more like one large book then several put together. The character dimension and plot twists were right on par. Each book had it's own clear plot and the romantic connections drew you into each story making this very hard to put down. I never wanted this series to end and I loved the super hero connection. What girl doesn't want a superhero with her happy ending. BJ writes the kind of books that make your smile. This is romance at it's best.

[Heather Weston-Confer · Rating 4 out of 5]

This box set was a great read from the first book to the last and left me wanting more with the other characters that have yet to get their own story. These are a great group of friends that as I read the stories, I fell in love with the group and wanted to be friends with them too. The men are hot; the women are feisty and independent with a bit of sass and the couples are swoon-worthy. I laughed and enjoyed each of their journeys to find their happiness. Every time I thought I had a favorite couple I would read the next story. This box set is a well written and fun read that I would definitely recommend.

[M.K. · Rating 5 out of 5]

1. TEMPORARY BLISS: Mac and Daniel have a super sweet meet cute and she is sunk! Only problem is her freak-outs about monogamy and her FWB situation with 3 other people (no cheating though). Must read! Daniel is everything she needs in one delicious superman package!
2. TRUE BLISS: Katie and Zander are adorable together as well as steamy. A small internet dating fiasco almost ends the relationship. Katie is looking for her prince who would have known a former stripper rookie cop would be that prince? Must read!

This series was great. I really couldn't put it down. ESPECIALLY when Mac is involved! If I could read more characters like her, wether male or female, I'd be in heaven! I'm ecstatic that she pops up in the every book! I also like the fact that she was able to stay friends with her ex lovers. Daniel with his security in her & his love made it ALL possible! This series is about the female & her friends not the other way around. I just found that EXTREMELY intriguing!

[Nancy Huddleston · Rating 4 out of 5]

Awesome! Brilliant! Fun! Thes are just a few words to express my feelings about The Bliss series: the Whole Damn Harem by BJ Harvey. Each story can be read alone, but man you will want to read them all. The characters are fun and unique. I loved how each book is complete by itself. Yet each touches the other. I adored that quality. The interaction between everyone will have you smiling, laughing , and hoping for the best. Great job BJ Harvey!

Wow what an awesome boxed set! This series circles around a group of friends. That have more then one thing in common. That being Mac. Well written and able to keep my attention. Every character is well written and easy to connect with throughout the story. I highly recommend this series and its happy ever afters x 4.

Love love love! BJ Harvey has become a favorite author of mine so having 5 of her books in one is AWESOME! This series has something for everyone. Sexy, sweet, and lots of laugh out loud moments. Really enjoyed this series! Grab a comfy spot and lose yourself in a world full of superheroes and swoon worthy men.

[Soni]

I thoroughly enjoyed this series, one of my favorites. So nice to see characters with a sense of humor as so many books don't have that. The chemistry was hot and a lot of the situations were things that some of us have gone through (not all...believe me). I can't decide which book is my favorite but I will definitely be re-reading this series

[D.L. Gallie · Rating 4 out of 5]

BJ Harvey sure knows how to write hot panty wetting scenes and alphas males who are everyday peeps and kick ass female leads whom I would happily be friends with
This series was amazing, I loved that the characters flow through and you get more insight into each of them.
I DO NOT recommend reading this in public

[Marina Skinner · Rating 5 out of 5]

 I absolutely loved this series to bits. Humour, so much sexual tension and heat galore it will melt you....
I thoroughly enjoyed the banter between the friends and family. So much so, makes me wish they were real!!!
The whole bundle of stories I didn't want to put down.
Incredibly entertaining, I was hooked, by the ladies, the hot as Hell men and the witty conversations!!
Brilliant work!!!

Loved all the character's in 1-5 . So refreshing to see hot alpha males be brought to their knees by that special woman. Fabulous at bringing all characters together as friends. 4.5**** Sean was my favorite. But Damn the others were smoking.

This boxed set rocked my socks off! I realized I'd read books 1 & 2 over a year ago, but was thrilled to reread them and continue on through the rest of the series. Full of amusing and hot moments and true love <3
