Bikinis Forever: An Unconventional Romance
Because forever isn’t a promise you make just once.
Three years ago, I was a lonely single dad who’d forgotten what it meant to be loved. Now four beautiful, extraordinary women share my life and my home, and Meredith and I have a pair of twins in the nursery.
But a growing family has a way of stretching the man at its center thin. My daughter Maddie’s destination wedding at Lake Tahoe is days away, Gabe and Sera are barely five months old, and Lexie and Olivia, the two women who started all of this, are quietly wondering whether there’s still room for them.
Then there’s my son Jacob’s girlfriend, who has never hidden her disapproval of the life I’ve chosen. As the wedding approaches, it becomes clear she has no intention of simply keeping her distance – and she’s willing to tear my family apart to get what she wants.
To hold onto everyone I love, I’m going to have to learn that being Papa Bear doesn’t mean carrying it all myself.
And I’ll have to decide what forever really looks like – for all of us.
Bikinis Forever is a multi-POV, age-gap, harem romance with emotional drama, no cheating/NTR, and a HEA.
This penultimate book in the series will close out the mundane threads of Ethan's story. The final installment to come will complete the connections to the magical Daltonverse.

Book 6 in the Bikini Days series is as fresh, lively and interesting as the first in the series.
The summary says: “Bikinis Forever is a multi-POV, age-gap, harem romance”. It’s that and much more. Yes, there are some very fun “scenes”, but it’s also a story about an “unusual” family coming together and a family being torn apart. On top of all that, there’s an over-the-top wedding at Lake Tahoe that’s described in delicious detail - in this case delicious does relate to food which has been a common theme in this series.
One aspect of this series/story is the important part each “family” member plays in maintaining the family dynamic. Each member has different skills and capabilities and it’s the interweaving of these attributes that makes the family(s) succeed. This is arguably one family with Ethan (Poppa-bear) at the centre. Equally it’s four families: Ethan with his 5 member polycule and his three mature children in their own family units. There are lots of parts to this story.
The intimate scenes are only among the five polycule members. To say they are hot would be an understatement. 🥵
One aspect of this series I have most appreciated is the casual nature of the sexual relations. There are no constraints: if one person initiates and another is open, it happens easily. And of course, in this complex situation, communication is key. But, as in most relationships, communication is never as smooth as everyone wants: ongoing fixes are required. Plus there’s a recognition that some relationships can’t be fixed, so how does the “family” come together to support the remaining member.
What I like about this series is the lengths each character goes to keep the relationships on track.
5 Insightful Stars. I’m keen to read the promised final book.

Brilliant as Ever
This penultimate episode focuses on Maddie's wedding, and it is as completely over-the-top as one might expect.
Family issues feature heavily, both those from blood and those acquired. Mr. Dalton tells a great story and brings it to a satisfactory ending.
Looking forward to the last in the series! Hope we won't be waiting too long!

Good ending to the series
It was a good ending for the series. There are a few openings for other books, and of course the promise for those of us who wanted Eathen to be introduced to the wider (and wilder) world of the Daltonverse there is the promise of an upcoming novella. I will be waiting eagerly for that one.

Another wonderful saga in Bikini Days Life
If this closes out the life of this story it ends pretty well. It will be extremely sad to see the characters fade but if they continue in the Daltonverse that is ok also. A great series that kept me smiling from the beginning!

A great end to the mundane
This is a great conclusion to the mundane part of the series. As a avid reader of Michael's other works I will absolutely be reading the next one for that supernatural pay off thats been simmering in the background. This series sound be the minimum bar many others should meet in a lot of things. The POV changes were neatly labeled and gave a great alternative perspective. The spice was legendary throughout the series. All of the romance and intimacy felt very real. All the characters were individuals and did not blend together, even with all of the love interests being blonde bombshells haha. I will be looking forward to the next one!
