Resumen del Editor

Best-selling sapphic romance author Harper Bliss brings you a heartfelt romance about overcoming differences, found family, and learning to see yourself through the eyes of the person you love.

Nora Levine has everything she dreams of: a leading role on a successful tv show and a quiet life with her best friends, away from the spotlight.

When the new production company CEO takes an unusually hands-on approach to her job, Nora’s hackles go all the way up.

Mimi St James just wants the best for everyone: her large family, her colleagues, and employees; even the aloof star of her company’s hit show. And she’ll go the extra mile to make all of them happy.

Nora can’t help but warm to Mimi’s kind nature—and what she first saw as meddling.

Mimi soon discovers there's so much more to Nora—good and bad—than meets the eye.

Can these two complex, strong-willed women find their way to each other?

Get your copy now, and join Nora and Mimi on their deeply emotional journey to love!

Outstanding book

I just love Harper Bliss and the combination of Abbey Craden is an amazing read. Thank you.

Harper Bliss’s Character creation skills are 10/10

I’m going to be totally honest I don’t always love Harper Bliss story telling but even if the story isn’t as interesting as I’d like them to be. There’s something to be said about her character creation skills. She’s such a master at it that even if she writes about a damn rock. That rock would be the most interesting thing on this planet. I always look forward to the characters and who they are when I read her books.

Another good one!

A beautiful story that reminds us that it's never too late to fall in love. Fun, light-hearted, emotional, and sexy! Another wonderful addition to the Bliss Universe.

Another winner from Bliss!

4.5 stars

I love Harper Bliss's writing! I'm constantly amazed how she can keep things fresh after publishing so many books. And yet she manages it time and time again. And when you add Abby Craden's magical narration to the mix, her audiobooks are must-buys for me.

While Bliss doesn't consider these books featuring entertainers a series, they are interconnected because minor characters from these books get stories of their own. And they make appearances in subsequent novels. Main character Nora Levigne was introduced in A Family Affair as the co-star of Stella's new TV series gig.

Bliss is one of the few authors who writes fully-fleshed out, interesting and sexually expressive women over 50. And she loves an age gap. In this book, A-list television star Nora is 51 and her TV executive love interest Mimi St. James is in her mid-60s. And she's hot as hell. Both women are, but while Nora still works out like a madwoman to keep her incredible physique camera ready, Mimi is a mother of four children who is comfortable with the changes in her body since giving birth. It's very refreshing to see.

Nora is a fascinating character. While she's a hugely popular celebrity, she is socially isolated - only preferring the company of a pair of very close friends she considers family. She hasn't dated in a good while and has pretty much accepted that she'll be perpetually single. She is emotionally closed off and while we learn deeper into the story why that is, she can come off as abrupt and abrasive. Some may be turned off by her character (I very nearly was after a particular outburst) but if readers hang in there, Bliss eventually pulls back the curtain, shedding light on what makes Nora who she is, humanizing her.

Mimi is the mother and partner everyone wishes they had. Caring, nurturing, understanding, patient and yes - sexy. Yet as great as she is, even she stumbles a bit when it comes to Nora. I appreciated that because sometimes with the best of intentions we have an idea what a partner or loved one might need or be best for them, but if we take the time to gather more information, it might not be that at all. Sometimes people need a safe space to develop new tools to help them grow into a new phase of their lives. Lots of food for thought between these pages.

While The Love We Make isn't a "heavy" read, it's also not fluff. Celeb romances with some depth are my favorite and this one hit my sweet spot.

I'm at the point with the books in this universe where I play a guessing game as to which minor character will get her own book next. And I have a good idea on this one! Stay tuned.

Love it

Love Harper Bliss and Abby Craden !! Harper never disappoints and Abby is amazing as always

Finally mature ladies in love!

It’s beautiful to see a story about two beautiful and sexy women over 50 finding love with each other! The two MCs have wonderful chemistry and the voices Abby Craden chose for them are absolutely fitting with their personalities. This is low angst, hot romance of opposites attract. Harper Bliss once again does not disappoint.

Finding Family

Nora Levine is known to everyone as a star with a wonderful career and tv show. She’s content to spend time with her two best friends and never venture into a relationship. Mini St James is a hands on tv executive who wants everyone to have their best life. The path to the future for two mature women is not easy but an opportunity for love. Sexy and romantic. The great Abby Craden is magnificent.

Love We Make

A very hard starting romance between 2 older women. It was back and forth a lot
Which became a little tiresome. The narration was great the story just ‘ok’.
I wasn’t hesitant to stop the audio occasionally.

Must listen!
