An “Awwww” Story

I loved everything about this story! The characters, the narration, even the easy, uncomplicated plot. Loved it all!

I swear listening to this was almost like listening to a story about myself. Joy is such a kindred! I am also free-spirited. I, too, have an affinity for older women. It also took me a variety of life experiences and travels to find my niche. I’m in my 30s, but if I brought home a 51 year old partner now, I’m pretty sure my mother would have a similar reaction. Maybe not the best friend/colleague part, but she would probably discount it and chalk it up to a “phase” she would wait to pass.

I also enjoyed Alice’s character. She was so very stuffy and quintessentially British. That is until Joy unraveled her!

Their relationship was the epitome of opposites attract, and Carmen Rose did a beautiful job of portraying them both. I’m a sucker for an English accent! 🥰 She was a bit more proper than what I typically like but it fit the characters perfectly and was still very sexy combined with HB’s hot scenes.

Definitely Recommended!!!

Good listening!

Excellent

Love the story
Love the relationships
Great narration
Will definitely listen to another by the author

Hot hot hot!

Book is meant to be raw and does it well. Loved it. Definitely a must.

May, December romance

This is one of the best “age difference romances” I have listened to on Audible.
It examines, without flinching, the ramifications these romances have on family and friends and how many walls must be climbed and choices to be made to have a successful relation.
I wish there were more “real stories” like this one out there.
My compliments to Ms. Bliss and to Ms. Rose for conveying all these emotions.

Fantastic low-angst age-gap!

What a breath of fresh air to read! The younger MC, Joy, is wonderful at communicating her needs and wants to her partner. No misunderstandings, no thoughts left unsaid. No unnecessary BS for the sake of angst mid-story! Joy is a pleasure to have as a character! She’s also free-spirited and oh so supportive. Bravo! The romance does puts stress between the older MC and her longtime best friend/work partner. But it all makes sense and adds to the lovely story. Love how the author included normal physiological changes, that an older woman experiences, in the mix of the relationship, and how understanding and no-big-deal it is to Joy. This is now my new favorite book by Harper Bliss (and there are sooo many good ones). The narrator was also fantastic at conveying the feelings and emotions throughout the story. Oh, and there are lotta of 🔥 moments to boot!

Alice + Joy

Spicy: 3.5/5

This is my first novel by Harper, and I enjoyed it. My favorite novels typically have spice, ice queens, and an age gap. This novel had all three! Plus, the drama! I mean, how would you feel if your straight female best friend fell in love with your only daughter?
I also really enjoyed the narrator; she helped the characters come to life.

Great book

Another great one by Harper bliss! Just listen to these books they are fantastic! Have enjoyed them all so far

Lovely!

As very nice well written age gap story! Alice’s character (MC pov) went through so much change and growth! She was and is so prim and proper and it was exciting to see her come alive!

Beautiful

This hit me in my soul! I really felt connected to these characters and I am not sure they will leave my heart any time soon, if ever.

Delightful story! Great narration.

Tasteful age-gap storyline. Loved the leaning toward ice queen dynamic and perfect mix of steamy and storytelling. Narration was fantastic, had a few lines in which I wasn’t positive who was supposed to be speaking, but didn’t detract from how much I enjoyed this audiobook.
