Micha, King of the Vampires and Devin, Leader of the Wolves, are two alphas who must learn to share one mate.

Bliss has lived most of her life thinking she was half human and half vampire. She soon finds out that she's also part wolf and the mate of the Lead Alpha of the Wolves. News not so well received. While she's dealing with all these new changes in her life, a rogue pack of wolves is also out to capture her and kill her for unknown reasons. Will she accept her mates in time for them to help her through her vampire/wolf transition? Will her mates be able to keep her safe from the threat of the wolves?

The Alphas’ Bliss is my first book by G.J. Cox. In this book you will meet Micha, King of the Vampires, Devin, Alpha of the entire wolf population, and Bliss, a woman destined to be the mate of both of these leaders.
Bliss was rescued from a horrible wolf attack when she was just a girl and brought to live with a family of vampires. She is believed to be half human and half vampire. When she was twenty years old, a mark appeared on her wrist proclaiming that she would be the mate to Micha, the vampire King. It is customary that she not be claimed until she has transitioned, which us usually around the age of thirty. So Micha waited. Bliss has been showing signs of transition and is now thirty years old. But her transition is more difficult than normal. It is then that Micha discovers a second mark on his mate to be, a mark her adoptive family kept hidden, that was the mating mark for Devin, the leader of the wolves.
This news is not well received, by both Bliss, who is afraid of the wolves due to her past experiences, and of course, by Micha. Wolves, though, are only given one mate for life, and Bliss is it for Devin. So Micha and Devin must find a way to share Bliss.
It is soon discovered that the reason for her difficult transition is because she is also part wolf. She is the only known hybrid, part wolf, vampire, and human. This news is not received well by some of the wolves and she is referred to as an abomination. As her relationship is progressing with both Micha and Devin, while also struggling with the difficult transition, Bliss finds herself in danger from a pack of rogue wolves. But the wolves couldn’t just be acting on their own. Someone is directing them. But who would hate her so much that her life would be in danger?
I really enjoyed this book. Bliss started out extremely naïve and I have to admit at times I thought it was a bit too much. But I had to understand that part of the problem was that her adoptive family kept her so protected. As things develop with Micha and Devin, Bliss certainly came out of her shell quickly. The transition helped things along which amped up her libido like crazy. These three definitely had no problem with chemistry. At the same time, she showed signs that she was a strong woman, and would be quite well suited to be the mate of not one but two species leaders.
This was a sexy, steamy book with just enough suspense to keep things moving quickly. I look forward to what this author has in store next for these three and also to explore some of her other books.

Trying to read some books from my TBR pile sometimes just makes me wonder why I added them in the first place. This is one of those times.
Bliss is the girl's name and she has the mating mark to be mated to the king of the vampires. Our story starts with her moving into his house. And, oh brother, he has a red room.
Let the eye-rolling begin!!
But, wait, it turns out that she also has the mating mark for the alpha of the werewolf pack too! What are these extremely alpha men going to do? Both of them growl when any other male gets near her. Vampires and werewolves are not exactly known for their great relationship.
Should they fight to the death for the girl?
Flip a coin?
Rock, paper, scissors?
No, they decide to share her. That makes total sense.
Now, Bliss is poorly named because she doesn't experience much of said emotion. She is basically a walking target or crash-test dummy. This girl gets hurt more often than a test subject at the discount bullet-proof vest factory. She is shot, stabbed, beat-up, kidnapped, and tortured - more than once for each. And, for the few pages where she isn't injured she has two guys trying to mate her 24/7. Poor Bliss. She is not named well at all.
This book is set-up for a follow-up book. I can't even think of what the author has in store for this sad, bedraggled woman next. I'm almost tempted to read it just to see what tortures are in store for Bliss. She hasn't been set on fire yet. That's the only thing I can think of that would be new, so I'd be interested to see what other creative and painful things that the author comes up with.

Bliss was destined to be the King of the Vampire’s mate. As a half human/half vampire, she was trained to be his submissive, but is that what he really wanted? Micha was a reluctant mate, but duty and fate guided his path. How could he convince the shy and timid woman he was not the monster she had been told? Her vampire transition was coming and she would need him in more ways than she knew.
Then it happened, a night out, and a stranger came up to Bliss as if he owned her and he smelled good, too good. Devin was no ordinary man, he was the Alpha Leader of ALL wolves, every bit as powerful as Micha. Have the Fates been bored? Did they need to kick up a little supernatural excitement? Is it possible that this innocent woman could be the fated mate of both rulers of their kind? Bliss will need them both when her blood displays another anomaly, she also is part wolf and two transitions could kill her, unless another threat to her gets her first.
Two powerful forces, two strong rulers, are they a match for Bliss or will she bring them to their knees with her sensual desires? Hottest Love Triangle ever.
Well, G.J. Cox has certainly steamed up my glasses with her supernaturally charged erotic tale, The Alphas’ Bliss>! Ms. Cox combines the sweet and tenderness of caring, the vicious protective instincts of two alphas and one timid young woman who emerges from her shell like a dragonfly in flight. A quick read that entertains and engages its readers, with enough spice to bring dry ice to a boil.
I received this copy from the author in exchange for my honest review.

What a great story this was. It had action, adventure, deception, redemption, menage, and what I consider a HFN ending. Yea they all ended up together as they should but it looks like there may be a book 2 where things could get rough again for our trio.
Micha, Devin, and Bliss are our main characters. Micha, is King of the Vampires. Devin, is Alpha of his pack and of all the Werewolves, and Bliss is their Mate who is a Human, Vampire, Werewolf Hybrid. She bears the mark of both her mates.
Bliss has had a difficult life, at the age of 12 she was taken and severely abused and left for dead by some rogue wolves only to be rescued by a vampire. The vampire family ended up raising her as their own. The story continues on from here, but I sure don't want to spoil it so you'll just have to read it for yourself to find out how everything comes to be. I will tell you that Bliss seems to have the worst luck when it comes to staying safe.
Great story line, awesome characters, good descriptions to details and engaging dialogue. The sexy bits could have been a little hotter, but they were pretty steamy.
Written as a multi pov (all three main characters).
Would I recommend this book? Yes
Would I read more from this author? Yes

The Alphas' Bliss by G.J. Cox is a sensational masterpiece that instantly hit home with me. I was immediately blown away by the strong male and female characters. G.J. Cox's writing is superb. Anyone that opens up any one of her novels knows this...no matter what genre she experiments with...this talented writer can succeed at such levels that readers will feel a tug to her writing and characters. The scenes pop off the pages and once again the characters are definitely three-dimensional. Inside this particular novel, G.J. Cox wrote her first paranormal contemporary romance packed with several surprises. One such surprise is having two alpha males from different sides that are also best friends find their mate...the issue is that both claim she's their mate. What happens next sent me on a thrilling journey and wild choose chase as the victim and alphas searched for the suspects. Suspects because the danger is so close to home that it's frightening. The strength of the males is intoxicating...and the heat packed inside is scorching hot. So hot I felt myself blushing as I race to turn the pages in haste to finish reading it all. Overall, I loved this new title and was amazed by the raw beauty of the story at hand. Sure many will say it's just a romance novel packed with lots of sex, but those who really read this will find that it's so much more than just that. I felt the characters' emotions as though I were te only one experiencing the fear, the tears, and the heightened pleasure...a crazy but fun-filled world that overtook my senses from page one.

Bliss was attacked by wolves and left for dead when she was 12 years old. Taken in and raised by the vampires, she has felt safe and at home. Now reaching the age of thirty, it is time for her to mate. The mate mark that appeared ten years ago clearly ties her to Micha, King of the vampires. As she and Micha begin their life together, her secret soon comes to light...she is also mate marked to Devin, the King of the wolves. As the three begin to fully explore their new relationship, Bliss' life is once more threatened. Can they keep Bliss safe and be together? Great paranormal read.

I loved the world of vampires and werewolves as seen through the eyes of Ms. Cox. To see a young woman with two very strong men fighting over here and that she could have them wrapped around her finger was amazing. I am curious though about their future and their children. This is going to be an addictive series to read.

*4.5* I loved this one. Micha was the true alpha... Devin was a bit disappointing. lol He seemed to always be screwing up.

I won a copy of this book in an author giveaway and I was so lucky. This is a great story and I loved every page and was sad to see it end. It had great sexy characters, a fast moving plot with lots of twists and turns and enough of a teaser for a second book that I am hoping will be out soon. Sit back and enjoy a fun filled afternoon, that is smoking hot .
