NEW RELEASE: More Than Words (Pink Bean 9)

by Leave a Comment

More Than Words (Pink Bean 9)More Than Words (Pink Bean 9) is OUT NOW!

When Pink Bean 8 came out, I assumed Pink Bean 9 would be the last book in the series.

I can now assure you that it’s not!

I’ve planned up to 12 books and, who knows, maybe the series will just keep on going forever? 😉

This book is all about Katherine, who we first met in Pink Bean 7.

But as always with Pink Bean books, it’s standalone and you don’t need to have read the other books to enjoy this one.

Here’s the blurb:

Building walls around your heart is easier than breaking them down

Katherine Jones has said goodbye to her job as a luxury lesbian escort to embark on a new adventure. She’s opening a new Pink Bean coffee shop with her best friend Rocco.

To renovate the space for their new venture they’ve hired Rocco’s aunt, Hera Walker. It’s Hera’s first job since the sudden death of her long-term partner and she’s finding it hard to reconnect with her old life. The fact that her first new client is a former call girl doesn’t help.

Can Hera overcome her prejudices and see Katherine for the person she truly is? And will Katherine be able to break down the wall Hera has built around herself?

Find out in this long-awaited new instalment of Harper Bliss’s thought-provoking Pink Bean series!

I dare say this book has all the usual Pink Bean ingredients: friendship, angst, coffee, processing + hotness (and a very entertaining gay best friend!)

NEW RELEASE: Crazy for You (Pink Bean 8)

by 2 Comments

Crazy for You (Pink Bean 8) is OUT NOW!

This is the penultimate book in the series (there will be a book 9!) and I had so much fun writing it.

If you’re wondering what happened to Jessica after Book 7 (and after that, admittedly, cruel teaser I posted last week), you can now find out!

Here’s the blurb:

Only love can heal a scarred soul

Jessica Porter is recovering from a medical procedure that has left her scarred, both physically and mentally. Before she goes back to work as a TV executive, she decides to call upon the services of her trusted escort, Laurel.

When a mix-up at the agency brings Liz to her door instead, it doesn’t take long for her to charm Jessica. As Liz’s disarming ways help Jessica slowly open up to the new reality of her body and her life, Jessica finds herself falling for Liz a little more each time.

But can Jessica accept Liz into her life completely, career and all? Or will the pressure of keeping up appearances doom their relationship before it even has a chance to flourish?

Find out in this emotional new instalment of best-selling lesbian romance author Harper Bliss’ Pink Bean Series.

While not as hot as Pink Bean 7 (not sure I can do hotter, to be honest ;-p), this book contains one of the most emotional, intimate scenes I’ve ever written. (If you read the acknowledgments in the back of the book, you’ll understand why I shed a few tears while doing so.)

NEW RELEASE: Love Without Limits (Pink Bean 7)

by Leave a Comment

Love Without LimitsLove Without Limits (Pink Bean 7) is OUT NOW!

Finally, after a 5-month wait since the last book in the series came out. After so many Pink Bean-less months, I wanted to return with a bang, and Love without Limits does not hold back on any front. I can, at the very least, promise you that, BUT:

Love Without Limits is NOT a traditional lesbian romance.

I’m not saying this to psychologically trick you into reading it, but it’s a simple fact that some of you will not want to read this book, or if you do, that you will not enjoy it. Please take this into consideration.

That being said, if you like a visit to the very outer frontier of lesbian (erotic!) romance, hop on board and read along!

Book 7 in the series is NOT standalone like the other Pink Bean books. It’s the sequel to Everything Between Us (Pink Bean Book 3) (Currently on sale!) and it’s all about Caitlin James and how her relationship with Jo is progressing.

The subject (exploring a non-monogamous relationship) is not something you come across every day in lesfic, the sexy scenes are the most daring ones I’ve ever written, but the big theme, like always, is L.O.V.E.

In the end, it’s still a Pink Bean book with plenty of heart and laughs and coffee.

Love Without Limits does come with a tiny cliffhanger warning (nothing to do with Caitlin or Jo!), but I promise you won’t have to wait long to find out what happens next. I’m a third into the first draft of Pink Bean 8 and it should be out in the spring.

Here’s the blurb:

Changing the rules can open your mind

Caitlin James and Josephine Greenwood have been happily in love and committed to each other for over a year. Josephine has shed her insecurities and her musical star is on the rise, while Caitlin hosts her own television show under the supervision of a new intriguing boss.

When Josephine starts the conversation about opening up their relationship, Caitlin is faced with a shift in the power balance between them. Together, they embark on a sometimes scary but always thrilling journey to discover who they both truly are.

Can Caitlin still practice what she has always preached? And will Jo be able to find her own way in their unconventional relationship?

Find out in this genre-defying new instalment of best-selling lesbian romance author Harper Bliss’ Pink Bean series. This book is the sequel to Everything Between Us (Pink Bean Series – Book 3).

Meanwhile Love Without Limits has had some great early reviews. Here’s my favourite one from the fab lesfic review website Les Reveur: This unconventional romance is nothing short of exceptional. 5 stars. >>

Several people who’ve read the book already have also advised to not read it in a public space… 😉

Enjoy!

NEW RELEASE: No Other Love (Pink Bean 6)

by Leave a Comment

No Other Love (Pink Bean 6)Despite it only being September, it’s already time for my last release of 2017. I explain why in a note at the end of No Other Love, not only for your information, but mainly because, in hindsight (always the biggest teacher, is it not?) I put a lot of those reasons into this book. I set myself up for it, of course, by making one of the main characters a lesbian romance author. (Duh!) 😉 But now that the book is actually coming out, it’s also bringing a disproportionate amount of fear to the surface.

Did I cross the line and put in too much of myself? Will readers not misinterpret what I’m trying to say? And, mainly, have I not made myself too vulnerable? (And also: what’s up with that tagline?) 😉

The truth is that I did, probably, cross some lines and that I most certainly have put more of my inner world in this book than I’ve done in others—and all of that brought to life in a character that, at first glance, may not even seem that sympathetic.

But the truth is also that I needed to write this book to process all of the emotions I’ve had to deal with this past year (and I’ve had many.) However, that is also where the similarities end. Jane and I are both hyper-sensitive, introverted, lesbian romance writers, but the story is entirely fictional. And the story, in the end, is what it’s all about. So let me tell you some more about that… (At last! But perhaps you know me well enough by now to know that long-windedness is my middle name.) 😉

The story of No Other Love is the opposite of what many would like us to believe is hot in lesbian fiction (namely, tight-bodied-20-something-girl-meets-other-tight-bodied-20-something-girl.) This book is about two middle-aged women in a long-term relationship and the obstacles they sometimes face. And a bunch of Pink Bean characters, of course!

Here’s the blurb:

The story of your life is the hardest one to write

Annie McLean’s struggling book shop has been saved by joining forces with the Pink Bean. Her wife, lesbian romance author Jane Quinn, finds her quiet life and steady routine challenged by the introduction of the Pink Bean and its many colourful characters. Both her mind and body seem to be struggling with the new situation.

While Jane figures out how to navigate and adjust to the many changes affecting her, Annie has developed more than a keen interest in Pink Bean owner Kristin.

What happens when a long and enduring relationship is put to the test? Can Annie and Jane rescue their marriage and in the process find themselves, and each other, again?

Find out in this new installment of best-selling lesbian romance author Harper Bliss’ Pink Bean series. Every book in this series can be read as a stand-alone without having read the others.

NEW RELEASE: Water Under Bridges (Pink Bean 5)

by Leave a Comment

Water Under Bridges (Pink Bean 5)Can you believe we’ve reached Book 5 in the Pink Bean series already? (Time flies when you’re writing about lesbians and coffee…) 😉 In this latest installment, I introduce two brand new characters who share a troubled past. Luckily they can count on the rest of the Pink Bean gang to help things along… but I really can’t say any more without spoiling the story.

Even though it has plenty of typical ‘Pink Bean banter’, Water Under Bridges is not as light-hearted as This Foreign Affair. It may actually be the slowest-burning book I’ve ever written (and of course things catch fire at some point!) If you need a bit of comic relief before you start the book, here’s a video of me failing at yoga to celebrate the launch: facebook.com/HarperBliss/videos/1599909293374790/ 😉

But don’t let my yoga shenanigans keep you any further. Here’s all the information on the book:

Can you build a future if you don’t let go of the past?

Louise Hamilton has returned to Sydney after her long term relationship broke down in Brisbane and she’s loving her new job at Glow, Darlinghurst’s freshly opened yoga studio. She’s found new friends in her boss Amber and the gang at the Pink Bean and feels like her life is finally back on track. Until a figure from her past unexpectedly comes back to haunt her.

Mia Miller has just been hired as the Pink Bean’s new manager. She’s delighted to leave behind the corporate life and become part of a small business whose owners and patrons give her the sense of community and family she’s been missing. When a Pink Bean customer catches her eye and she tries to establish a connection, her advances are met with nothing but indifference and disdain.

What happens when a dark past comes back to slap you in the face? And can people ever truly move on from a deeply traumatizing experience?

NEW RELEASE: This Foreign Affair (Pink Bean 4)

by Leave a Comment

This Foreign AffairHello from Chiang Mai, where the weather is almost as hot as the new Pink Bean book. I guess you could say I’ve kind of gone back to my roots, because the ‘orgasm density’ (it’s a thing now) is more French Kissing-esque than Pink Bean-ish. 😉 Maybe that’s because a couple of familiar French Kissing characters actually turn up in this fourth instalment of the Pink Bean series (setting the scene for French Kissing: Season Four.)

Now that we’ve established that This Foreign Affair is (by far) the hottest Pink Bean book yet, perhaps I should also mention that my wife made this video about it >> 😉

But don’t let me keep you any further. Here is all the information on the book:

Can passion bridge ten thousand miles?

Television presenter Zoya Das is reeling from a painful breakup. When she’s called to solve a problem at a rental flat she owns, sparks fly between her and her French guest Camille Rousseau. A short holiday fling before Camille flies back to Paris could be just the thing to help Zoya’s recovery.

But what happens when Zoya and Camille develop deeper feelings for each other and are faced with the prospect of being in love on opposite sides of the world?

Don’t miss this new world-spanning instalment of best-selling lesbian romance author Harper Bliss’ Pink Bean series. Every book in this series can be read as a stand-alone without having read the other instalments.

P.S. Pink Bean 5 is about to go to the editor. The first draft of Pink Bean 6 is coming along nicely and Pink Bean 7 is starting to come together in my head. (My life basically revolves around the Pink Bean right now…) 😉
