4 stars. I am so glad that Leigh and Jodie have a full length book because I loved this! The emotions were definitely there and the spice! Hot damn some of the best that I’ve read from Bliss so far. This was only 40 pages and it was a nice teaser and I’m so excited to jump into their full story because I need more of these characters.

Imagine looking up at your son’s college graduation stage waiting for him to cross, feeling the excitement, squeezing your ex-husband’s hand because you both made it, and looking across the aisle and their is your ex-girlfriend looking back at you. Ugh!
Harper Bliss can pack a lifetime in a novella and she does in As Years Go By (2014) as Jodie looks up into the one who did not want a family and walked a way’s eyes, Leigh. The feelings that course through Jodie in that moment: loneliness, longing, anger, tiredness, melancholy, and emptiness. What Jodie does not know is that her son has set up this moment and Leigh has hoped for a conversation for a long time. Bliss takes these simple yet complex ideas and weaves a years of pain and joy into a short novella of romance and life. Sometimes we think we want one road and then we get on that road and realize we were on the right road all along. Bliss makes that realization and the journey one worth reading.
