One to Keep

Nights in Bliss, Colorado, Book 3

By: Lexi Blake, Sophie Oak

Narrated by: Kitty Bang, Lee Samuels

Re-released in a second edition with new content.

Stefan Talbot likes order and control. He approaches his life with the same meticulous precision that he uses to put paint on his canvas. Nothing good comes from chaos, and that is why he has refused to allow himself to get close to Jennifer Waters. They are like fire and ice. Though she is younger, her talent as an artist is unquestionable. But she lives her life like she paints - with wild, passionate abandon. It is intoxicating and terrifying, and he can’t get her out of his head.

Jennifer ran from Bliss to put Stef behind her. She had come to the mountain town seeking a mentor, but found much more than she bargained for. Cool and distant, Stef was like a marble statue, and no matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t break through his shell. She moved to Dallas to start over, but nothing is going as planned.

When the art gallery where she works is robbed and a precious painting is stolen, Jen is accused of the theft. Jen is thrilled when her bail is met, until she realizes her savior is Stef, and he has a few conditions. First and foremost, she has to return to Bliss.

Against the backdrop of the Winter Festival, Stef and Jen’s attraction catches fire. But the dark forces behind the robbery in Dallas have followed Jen home. A criminal syndicate believes she still has the stolen painting, and they’ll kill to get their hands on it.

Doesn't disappoint

Big fan of this author love her stories. little cheesy on the romance but as always she comes through. Love her secondary characters.

Jen and Steph

I absolutely love this book. Lexi did a wonderful job with the king of bliss and his HEA. I like the add on to the story that gives a little more background into our favorite Russians and the good Dr of bless.

The King of Bliss

Even though my favorite element of the series is missing, this is my favorite book so far. I couldn't put down Stefan (Stef, King Stefan) Talbot and Jennifer (Jen) Waters' story. The heartache, heartbreak, love, danger, friendships, and series crossover were terrific!

Stef is a champion at putting his foot in his mouth when it comes to Jen. He always thinks he knows best, but I love when she shows him that he knows nothing. 😏

Things definitely get dicey, literally and figuratively speaking, bringing danger to Bliss. It does get dark. I'm uncertain that Teeny and Marie will let their son out of their sight again after this latest shake up.

As the story unfolds, I love that we get to see some future couplings start to take root or reignite. I also love that everyone calls out Stef on his foolishness.

There are many cameos, including the Harper twins who seem to liven things up with their over-the-top behavior when it comes to their pregnant wife, Rachel. As much as I love all the Bliss shenanigans, I equally love the crossover with the Masters and Mercenaries series, as Ian Taggart and Liam O’Donnell join in for a bit.

I received an author's copy of the audio book. The narrators, Kitty Bang and Lee Samuels, are great. I do wish for duet, but I'm not complaining about the narrators.

Another Sweet Romance In Bliss

Steph and Jenn’s story was great - like the rest of them! I love the suspense in each story and the hea of course! Enjoyed the build up for the next books too!

Good Narration; Secondary Characters Were More Ent

This book had several funny moments. This is the first book I listened to in the series.

Stefan and Jen were not my favorite characters. They were ok, but the secondary characters were much more entertaining. Alexi, Rachel, Max, Rye, the doctor, Holly, Stella, etc., almost everyone else was interesting and enjoyable.

Stefan was overbearing, and Jen was blah. Although she had left Stefan, she seemed kind of desperate to me.

The narration was good. Having read the Masters and Mercenaries series, I recognized Ian Taggart's character. I have Ryan West's voice in my head as Ian, so it threw me off a little, lol.

There was humor, romance, action, suspense, and steamy scenes. I would give this book 3.5 stars.
