Publisher's summary

No one blends humor and sensuality like New York Times best-selling author Lynsay Sands in this captivating story of feuding nobles forced to marry - and destined to fall in love.

Love thy neighbor, 'tis said. A fine idea, except when the neighbor in question is Lord Holden. Lady Helen Tiernay has complained frequently about his treatment of his people. Too frequently perhaps, for the king intends to curb their constant bickering by ordering them to wed. Helen can't refuse a royal decree, but she'll do everything possible to drive away her devilishly attractive husband-to-be.

Holden has faced all manner of horrors on the battlefield. But marriage to "the tyrant of Tiernay" is still a worrying prospect - until he glimpses Helen in the flesh. What flesh it is - soft, lush, made for his touch. If she weren't so intent on thinking up devious ways to prevent consummating their bond, Helen would see how perfect they are together and that a marriage begun as enemies can turn to absolute pleasure.

Bliss - LOL

This book had me laughing so hard that I had to rewind to make my husband hear parts and he cracked up too. I wish it could have been dual narration for the sake of the female voices. This will be a re-listen for the laughs it gives.

Once again Ms. Lynsey Sands. . .

is in my top 15 favorite Authors! This was an very engaging book wth many mysteries & plot twists, however, though I adore an (extensive/ extension) epilogue, this one did not include an heir/heiress of Holden/Tierrany!

Prank Battle Overload

Lord Heath and Lady Helen are engaged in a comedy of errors which results in a prank battle for the ages, which resulted in quite a few laugh out loud moments that even included tears rolling down my eyes.

However, though I am a a huge fan of the prank battle trope, I think towards the last few pranks I was cringing with discomfort. It was just one or two too many.

I also think I may have reacted oddly to the narrator—I had a hard time with his too-deep hero’s voice.

Best of the Best

This is one of the best books I've read in awhile. Got to love any book that makes me laugh out loud. This one takes the cake for sure. The antics these two characters get up to is priceless. It's one that will be read and read by this fan. Lynsay Sands out did herself and Justin Hill was the perfect narrator. Have read Always as well but didn't care for it as much. Please do not miss understand it is still a good book. Just saying this one is a favorite.

This is a wonderful story. I really enjoyed what the H/H did to each other, I laughed through the first half of this story. This story kept you on your toes trying to figure out who the villain was. I would highly recommend this story.

The humor

After listening to a much heavier story, it was refreshing to listen to something a bit lighter.

HILARIOUS LOVABLE H/H

Bliss is an Outstanding story. When Lady Helen Tiernay is order by King Henry to marry her neighbor "The Hammer" Lord Heathe Holden she is determine to make him cry off. She hates him and believes he has done some horrible things to the tenants that live on his land.

This story is Hilarious, the characters are just loveable. Its fast paced excellent writing and dialog between the H/H. There is also someone trying to kill Lord Holden. I love Lady Helen, her aunt and there maids Hijinks. They come up with some of the funnies ways to make Heathe cry off. Soon Heathe finds out what they are up too. So does the Kings man Lord Templeton who has come to see the marriage takes place. He is also very funny. He has had enough of the delays of the marriage and consummation. So he sees to it LOL!!

Once the couple comes together they have a hot sensual marriage and grow in love with each other.
Truly a enjoyable story I couldn't put it down. The story leaves you with a smile on your face.
Narrator was very good.
