Maddie is an investment banker working in Hong Kong and despondent over the way her personal life has become a shambles.  After leaving her longtime lover in Australia for business in Hong Kong, she has been "the other woman" to a woman cheating on her husband.  Maddie finally breaks it off and it is made worse by the fact that June is a coworker.  To release of this negativity, Maddie takes exercise classes.The instructor of these classes, Alex, is going through similar issues.  Her long time girlfriend left her for another woman.  She believes in love, not one night stands like her roommate Nat.  Alex notices Maddie and feels some attraction.  They agree to a date and after a rough first one,a romance blossoms.There are many reasons I really enjoyed this story.  The first is that at its core...it is a romantic love story between two people who are both feeling very blue about love at the moment they met.  While the story is fairly short the budding romance didn't feel rushed...more like something that was meant to be.Second reason to love this story...the reader will connect easily with all the characters even though there are major differences.  Not only did I feel connected to Maddie and Alex, but also with Nat and Isabella, who is a friend of Maddie.  I felt the most connection with Alex as I know what it's like to have a significant other do that,only to find someone else with whom you want to share everything.Third reason is Harper Bliss and her wonderful portrayal of the physical pleasure Alex and Maddie share.  As has been the case with all stories I have read by this author,I enjoy the sex scenes for not only the heat and arousal, but also for the emotions that the women feel.  It's not just the orgasms, it's the total bliss and emotions that keep me glued to my readers. A great romance between two women that was a pleasure to read.  Looking forward to the next story in the series.
