A Taste of Bliss

She can fix anyone’s look—but not her own life.

Bliss Kaufman has a plan: break free from her credit-stealing boss, launch her own beauty business, and finally call the shots. No distractions. No detours. Definitely no men.

Enter Talan McGregor—cocky bartender, devastating smile, and the kind of temptation that makes “just one night” sound like a great idea. Bliss swears it’s a one-time thing… until Talan keeps showing up, chipping away at her walls, and making her wonder if her perfect plan is missing the best part.

But when a life-changing diagnosis shatters her carefully mapped future, Bliss is forced to face a truth she can’t contour, conceal, or gloss over: some things can’t be fixed with a steady hand and a makeup brush.

Now, if she wants a shot at love—and the messy, beautiful life that comes with it—she’ll have to risk everything, including her heart.

For readers who believe the most beautiful love stories are the messy, complicated ones, A Taste Of Bliss offers a heartfelt journey of courage, connection, and second chances. With a heroine learning that the bravest makeovers start from the inside out, a hero who shows up when it matters most, and a romance that burns hot while healing deep, this is a story that will stay with you long after the last page.

Adrian R. Hale loves sugar and spice and everything nice--so of course she loves a good happy ending, in fiction and otherwise. When she’s not writing, she is making people beautiful as a hair and makeup artist, or trying to run off her overconsumption of sugar. A born and raised California girl, she now resides in Austin, TX with her husband and fur babies. Playing with her imaginary friends is as common to her now as it was when she was a child; the only difference is now she lets other people know about them through her writing.
