“Harper Bliss took me on a very dark, emotional, romantic, hopeful and deep ride!” – GoodReads Reviewer
Here’s the blurb:
The date is set. Six months from now, former music icon Isabel ‘Izzy’ Adler will die.
Since she lost her voice ten years ago, Izzy’s been to hell—and hasn’t found her way back. She would rather die than live without the instrument that used to define her.
When journalist Leila Zadeh is brought in to finish her biography, Izzy’s desire to end her life is profoundly challenged. But is the attraction between the two women enough to upend Izzy’s plan?
Best-selling lesbian romance author Harper Bliss brings you a moving story about a woman’s journey from wanting death to choosing life.
Content warning: this book discusses the topic of suicide and may trigger certain readers.
★★★★★ “I couldn’t put it down from the first page to the last. My emotions were all over the place. A must read for all.” – Amazon Reviewer
As you might have guessed from the blurb, A Breathless Place has a darkness to it. It’s much more in the vein of At the Water’s Edge and In the Distance There Is Light, than, let’s say, If You Kiss Me Like That or Seasons of Love.
It’s more a book for the die-hard Harper Bliss fan (if such a person exists) than it is one that will attract new readers.
But A Breathless Place is a book I had to write. And sometimes, I write darker books. (I will ALWAYS give you a happy ending, though. You can count on that.) Books that are more of a challenge to read. It’s my nature. A Breathless Place is also a book I haven’t been able to shake yet. Some of the scenes have stuck with me all this time.
This book is VERY HIGH in angst and it may grab you by the throat rather forcefully, but I also think that, despite its darkness, it all comes together beautifully in the end. I’ve been working hard on my endings this year and this is my favourite one to have written so far.
Ultimately, for me, this book is an unflinchingly raw but highly emotional ode to life.
This is how my editor said it:
“This is a stunner of a book, it’s superbly written, it has two very likeable characters and, most importantly, it grabs you right from that breath-stealing opening line and makes you hang in there desperate to know what Izzy does.”
A Breathless Place is also my 30th published Harper Bliss novel and I really wanted it to be something special.
I also realise it’s a good thing I’m so fiercely indie because not many publishers would take a chance on a book like this. I hope you will!

Enjoy! ❤️
P.S. Earlier this week I sent the book to Abby Craden for audio narration (quite possible one of the most exciting emails I’ve ever sent.) 😉
