#137: Harper Is Sorry for This Podcast
September 15, 2022 15:22 - 34 minutes - 63.5 MBWe were absent last week because the arrival of a dog in our home has caused quite the commotion. We had the deluxe edition of At the Water’s Edge recorded by Abby Craden and it’s available everywhere now. And Harper’s other scandalous romance, In the Distance There Is Light, has been out for six years! We really loved season two of The Capture on the BBC. We’re also watching both House of the Dragons and The Rings of Power. Caroline’s book of the week is Counterfeit by Kirstin Chen. ...
#136: Harper and Her Mrs Reveal a Massive Plot Twist
September 01, 2022 14:53 - 35 minutes - 64.4 MBThe writing of Harper’s current work-in-progress is going very slowly. There will be a lot of drama before it’s done. Harper has revealed her fantasy casting for A Family Affair on her blog. And we’ve received the audio recordings from Abby Craden, so it’ll be available to listen to very soon. We binged The Dropout on Hulu. Amanda Seyfried should get an Emmy for her performance. Caroline’s book is The Other Mother by Rachel M. Harper. Harper would like to read it, but is still stuck i...
#135: Harper Guarantees a Happy Ending for the Women
August 25, 2022 12:00 - 42 minutes - 77 MBA Family Affair has had a great launch, so thank you to everybody who bought it or read it in Kindle Unlimited. We’re doing a lucky draw, and you can win a signed paperback book, or naming rights for a future book. All details can be found HERE >> Harper started on her next book after a two month break, which is her longest hiatus so far. It’s a new age-gap romance in the ever expanding BlissVerse. We’ve been watching too much Premier League football. In between matches, we binged A Le...
#134: Harper Was Robin Wrong
August 18, 2022 14:27 - 33 minutes - 62.1 MBHarper’s newest book, A Family Affair is out on Amazon and Kindle Unlimited. Thanks to everyone who pre-ordered, bought or borrowed it! And the German translation of This Foreign Affair, Eine Französin zum Küssen is out today as well! Harper is preparing to start writing her next book, but she hasn’t even told Caroline anything about it yet. We finished Better Things and we already miss it so much. We binged Belgian show Pandore, but really hope that the upcoming second season will deliver ...
#133: Harper Can Only Achieve Shortness in Her Stature
August 11, 2022 14:02 - 33 minutes - 61.8 MBWe’re back after a long hiatus, hurray! And Harper wrote a book while we were off the air: A Family Affair. It’s available to buy direct now, or will be available on Amazon only (and in Kindle Unlimited) as of 17 August 2022 (for at least three months). This book was supposed to be more “women’s fiction” but ended up “scandalous lesbian romance”. We’re seriously thinking of getting a dog and are looking for any tips for introducing a dog into a diva-cat household. In television news, we...
#132: Harper Thinks the Neighbouring Roosters Suffer from Toxic Masculinity
May 19, 2022 15:16 - 34 minutes - 62.8 MBHarper is enjoying once-a-year flow in the writing of her new book and all she wants to do is write. The audio of The Duet is back from Abby Craden, so it will be out soon! Caroline is working on our first foreign language publication, oui oui! We haven’t watched as much television as usual because we’ve been enjoying the nice weather in our garden. And Amazon was late putting on the latest Bosch episodes, which pissed Harper off. Tune in again next time for a new episode of Harper ...
#131: Harper Is Quite Cranky
May 11, 2022 15:31 - 37 minutes - 67.9 MBThe Duet launched without a glitch and even made it to number one in the Amazon lesbian fiction chart, so thanks to everyone who bought it! Harper has gone back to writing what she calls her most scandalous book yet. But she feels taking a longer break between books is beneficial to her writing. Once in a Lifetime was mentioned in a Masterclass blog post, which means Harper is mainstream. We’re really enjoying Bosch Legacy, even though it’s on a weekly release schedule. We’re also wat...
#130: Harper Feels Like Her Soul Has Come Home
May 04, 2022 10:05 - 41 minutes - 76.9 MBWe’re back after our moving-to-the-country hiatus. Turns out, we love living outside the city. Except maybe for the lack of food delivery services. Harper has a new book out! The Duet, a rock-star age-gap romance, is available now HERE. And the audiobook of And The She Kissed Me is out as well. Lots of television was watched during our break. We even had to resubscribe to AppleTv+. Harper was blown away by Detransition, Baby by Torrey Peters, while Caroline’s book recommendation this ...
#129: Harper Was Inspired by Dr. Drake Ramoray
February 10, 2022 13:53 - 36 minutes - 49.7 MBContrary to last week, this episode is rant-free! Thanks to everyone who bought And Then She Kissed Me and helped spread the word about it. For a chance at winning some fun prizes, check out this page. Harper is writing away at her upcoming rockstar romance. She has also started reading French Kissing as it was the first episode’s 8th anniversary this week. We started watching Suspicion on AppleTV+, but are not used to having to wait for a weekly release. We also started Reacher on Amaz...
#128: Harper’s Characters Don’t Want to Kiss
February 03, 2022 13:37 - 30 minutes - 42.1 MBThis week’s episode is kind of ranty again. Harper is back in writing mode, but she’s not sure she’s on the right track. We’re grateful to everyone who bought And Then She Kissed Me and made it go up the Amazon ranks in spite of the ranking snafu. We’re watching Friends, again, and still can’t believe they paired Rachel with Ross. We also enjoyed BBC show The Tourist a lot. Tune in again next time for a new episode of Harper Bliss & Her Mrs. Get in touch with us with your questions, ...
#127: Harper Has Been Punching Her Bag All Day
January 27, 2022 15:39 - 25 minutes - 35.5 MBToday is launch day for And Then She Kissed Me! Not the joyous occasion we were hoping for because of an Amazon sales rank issue, so Harper is on a bit of a rant, but she’s been able to work out her anger on her punching bag. In any case, it’s a feel-good celebrity romance, which you can get HERE. We binged the hilarious Starstruck in one evening. We’re also enjoying The Responder on the BBC, despite our dislike for Martin Freeman. Caroline’s book of the week is, of course, And Then She K...
#126: Harper Needs to Be Buttered Up
January 20, 2022 14:03 - 34 minutes - 47.1 MBHarper is stressing out this week because of the upcoming launch of And Then She Kissed Me, which is available for pre-order from the Harper Bliss web shop. To get in the mood, you can read Harper’s novella I Still Remember for free for a limited time. Because of the launch stress, she’s had to take a break in the writing of her next book. She has also reunited with her favourite fitness instructor, Robin. Harper greatly enjoyed Land, the movie directed by and starring Robin Wright. We al...
#125: Harper Is Completely Smitten (with a puppy)
January 13, 2022 15:16 - 34 minutes - 47.3 MBWe’re back for a new year of neither professional nor profound podcasting. Harper is working on a new book, but she’s finding it hard to get into flow because of moving and launch stress. And Then She Kissed Me will be out in two weeks! Over the break we watched some stuff on Netflix: Stay Close (bingeworthy, with impressive houseporn); The Hand of God (beautiful and enjoyable); and Don’t Look Up (entertaining and with a great Meryl Streep). We also watched Love/Life on HBO Max, which w...

#122: A Once in a Lifetime Holiday Special
December 23, 2021 07:11 - 20 minutes - 28 MBThis week's episode is a little different, as we're taking some time off recording for the holidays. But we don't want to leave you Bliss-less for that long, so we're giving you a different audio taste of Harper Bliss in the form of some audiobook teasers. This week's offering is the first chapter of Once in a Lifetime, a definite fan favourite, beautifully narrated by Laura Jennings. The ebook happens to be discounted on all platforms at the time this episode goes out (until 5 January 202...
#121: Harper Has a Bliss-mas Surprise!
December 16, 2021 13:19 - 24 minutes - 33.3 MBIn this (probably) last episode of 2021, Harper has a surprise announcement: she wrote a sequel to In the Distance There Is Light, a novella called The Light Between Us, available here. Its working title was In the Distance There Is Drama. There is also a Deluxe version of In the Distance There Is Light which includes both the original novel and the sequel. Harper’s writing retreat is on hold because our lives are as dramatic as a Harper Bliss novel at the moment. In entertainment news,...
#120: Harper’s Bandwidth Is Like Dial-up
December 09, 2021 11:39 - 34 minutes - 47.9 MBOn this episode Harper’s Mrs is a bit loopy because of a painful back. Harper finished writing a short story and is ready to go on her next writing retreat. She watched a LGBTQ romance panel online and was appalled by how they talked about lesbian romance. We saw a great show on BritBox: The Tower, a three-part thriller starring Gemma Whelan. We also enjoyed Netflix’s gay Christmas rom-com Single All the Way. Caroline’s book this week is 56 Days by Catherine Ryan Howard, a psychological ...
#119: Harper Is 10 Months Pregnant With Idea
December 02, 2021 13:24 - 32 minutes - 45.1 MBWe record this on the first day of snow of the year! The big news of the day is that That Woman Next Door is now available on Audible! And Then She Kissed Me is at the editor’s and with some beta-readers, one of whom already finished it. Harper is ready to start writing her next book, but she has to write a short story first. We have some translation news, both in Portuguese and French. If you’re looking for a Christmas themed read, why not try Life in Bits, which Harper co-wrote with T.B. ...
#118: Harper Cracked the Flow Code
November 25, 2021 14:53 - 33 minutes - 45.7 MBHappy Thanksgiving to our American listeners! Harper is about to send her editor the manuscript of her next book, And Then She Kissed Me, which will be out at the end of January. Not a lot of publishing news this week, because we’ve been very preoccupied with maybe buying a house. We watched all six episodes of Annika, a Scottish scandi noir with a humorous touch. We enjoyed it very much, especially Nicola Walker. Caroline’s book this week is The Thing About Clare by Imogen Clark, about...
#117: Harper Has Many Thoughts
November 18, 2021 11:47 - 42 minutes - 57.8 MBWe’re back after an extended break! But we’ve been busy during the break: Harper wrote a book which will be called And Then She Kissed Me; we published the audio of That Woman Next Door; and we published an age-gap boxset, The Power of Love. Of course, we’ve watched a lot of television since our last podcast episode. We enjoyed The L Word Gen Q, but it is not without its issues. We loved Work in Progress. Harper has been rewatching Californication, which she’s enjoying, but in this day and ...
#116: Harper Fancies Herself a Comedian
September 23, 2021 06:07 - 37 minutes - 51.4 MBThis week’s big news is that That Woman Next Door is out now in ebook and print! The book is a slow-burn opposites attract with lots of lesbian processing. Harper is still not writing so she’s been occupying herself on Instagram. We enjoyed the new season of Sex Education a lot, even though it was a bit more serious than previous seasons. It’s definitely more educational than the Sex Ed we got in school. We also watched the first episode of Alma's Not Normal on the BBC. Caroline’s boo...
#115: Harper Had to Choose Between Angelina and Padma
September 16, 2021 14:13 - 40 minutes - 55.2 MBThere is lots of audio news this week! About That Kiss (narrated by Abby Craden) is now available everywhere, and At Your Most Beautiful (narrated by Angela Dawe) is now out as well. That Woman Next Door is going through the very last proofread before going to the retailers and Harper is enjoying it so much. She’s still not writing so she’s been on Instagram much more, which is not necessarily working out. We rewatched season one of The L Word: Generation Q in preparation for when seaso...
#114: Harper Is Pregnant With Idea
September 10, 2021 08:31 - 36 minutes - 50 MBIn this week’s episode, Caroline has tooth ailments. Harper is still on a writing break, but working on the final edits on That Woman Next Door, which will be out in ebook, audio, paperback AND a swanky hardcover. She’s also trying to be social-media-savvy. Harper is with book idea, but she has to wait a few weeks before she can begin writing it. Meanwhile, the Two Hearts Trilogy read along is still happening in the Facebook Group. We’re enjoying Vigil on the BBC, which stars queer lady fa...
#113: Harper Dies of Embarrassment During the Episode
September 02, 2021 14:34 - 37 minutes - 51.5 MBApologies for skipping last week. Visiting friends and cat sitting duties made it impossible to record an episode. That Woman Next Door is available for pre-order here! Harper reveals the story behind the unfortunate naming choice of one of its characters. Harper's two attempts at writing Pink Bean 11 didn’t work out so she’s taking an extended break from writing. She’s decided to organise another read along in her Facebook group, this time of Two Hearts Trilogy. Join the group to parti...
#112: Harper Was Followed by One of Her Characters
August 19, 2021 14:22 - 45 minutes - 62.3 MBWe’re back after a relaxing holiday in Brittany. We’ll be going back soon! About That Kiss, narrated by the great Abby Craden, is out in audio in most places (not Audible or Amazon.) And Harper posted her fantasy casting on her blog. Harper’s next book finally has a title and it’s not Difficult Women. The editor suggested Two Lesbians Processing. It will be available for pre-order here. However, her next next book is proving to be a bit of a struggle. Harper doesn’t like tv shows whe...
#111: Harper Has Stuck Her Head Even Farther Up Her Own Behind
July 29, 2021 09:03 - 43 minutes - 59.1 MBAbout That Kiss is out now everywhere! It could be your feel-good read of the summer :-) Harper is feeling the launch stress. Another new release is the German translation of A Lesson in Love, Die Erfahrung von Liebe. Harper finally typed THE END on Difficult Women, which is set in Brittany, which is where we’re going on holiday. We watched season four of Unforgotten, and loved it, but the end left Caroline reeling. We also started rewatching Homeland, starting at season four, which has L...
#110: Harper Will Be an Easier Woman Tomorrow
July 22, 2021 13:16 - 31 minutes - 43.3 MBWe record this episode on our National Holiday and also the 21st anniversary of our first meeting. Harper is feeling the stress of finishing her current first draft and preparing for a launch next week. Thank goodness for her punching bag. The first two chapters of About That Kiss are available to read on the blog. We had a movie night in which we watched two very different films: Gunpowder Milkshake and Let Them All Talk. We enjoyed both in different ways. We’ve also been on a streak of te...
#109: Harper Likes It When Things Are About Her
July 15, 2021 15:17 - 34 minutes - 47.5 MBCaroline’s birthday was celebrated profusely which led us to not be able to record a podcast last week, for which we apologise. The Village Romance Series is on sale for a few days, get it now! Harper’s editor loved About That Kiss and gave it the perfect review. It will be out in two weeks! Harper is rereading her Pink Bean books and really loved No Other Love (Book 6). She’s now on Love Without Limits, and thinks she must have been crazy writing that book. We absolutely loved the ne...
#108: Harper Is Toppling the Patriarchy One Punch At a Time
July 01, 2021 15:00 - 37 minutes - 51 MBIn this week’s episode, Harper talks about her Difficult Women (working title), but she doesn’t know yet how they’ll get together. This book may also have brought her to take on a new (violent) hobby. About That Kiss is getting its final touches and will be out on 27 July. The editor loved it! And Harper reveals which book she’ll work on when she’s done with the difficult women. Our shout-out of the week is to the Flemish Government for their PSA with two middle-aged lesbians. In betwee...
#107: Harper and Her Mrs Are Annoying Middle-Aged Lesbians
June 24, 2021 13:41 - 41 minutes - 57.3 MBWe’re back after a short getaway in the countryside, which was so nice. We even went for an outdoor run early in the morning! In other fun news: we booked tickets to go see Celine Dion in 2022! Harper’s next two audiobooks have been cast and lesfic audiobook fans will be happy. This week’s shoutout is an attempted hommage to sexy Scottish accents. We enjoyed the last season of Master of None, which has great houseporn. Harper has started watching Death in Paradise as her go-to-sleep sho...
#106: Harper Felt Like Such a Cat Lady
June 10, 2021 13:55 - 30 minutes - 41.5 MBHarper celebrated her birthday over lunch with the ladies from Ylva Publishing, which was lots of fun. And thanks to Carrie for the unexpected prezzie! Her next book, About That Kiss, is about to be sent to the editor, before we take a few days off next week. And she’s decided to take up her previously discarded book and try to finish it. Our favourite podcasters Fi and Jane made a hilarious video to announce their upcoming book. We watched season two of Feel Good, which we highly recomme...
#105: Harper Is Her Own Favourite Author
June 03, 2021 13:18 - 37 minutes - 51.8 MBWe were absent for two weeks for the best possible reason: Harper wrote a new book! And she had so much fun doing it. She has also discovered the joy of reading her own books, which she’s never done before. This has led to her doing a group readalong of If You Kiss Me Like That in her Facebook Group. During our two weeks absence we watched a lot of TV. We loved It’s a Sin but tears were shed. We also enjoyed the third and final season of Shrill. And our highlight was Mare of Easttown with a...
#104: Harper Is Smitten With Her New Niece
May 12, 2021 13:38 - 38 minutes - 52.8 MBWe’re back after our absence last week, brought on by Harper’s current at-home writing retreat. She’s going all-out on writing a Hollywood romance and is making amazing progress, because of not doing anything else or reading any news. After the season finale of Line of Duty, we rewatched the first three seasons of Unforgotten and a desperate to watch the fourth one. We also started on Dexter again, which is very bloody. Caroline's book of the week is Good Company by Cynthia D’Aprix Sweene...
#103: Harper Has Been Overly Sex-Educated
April 29, 2021 13:30 - 33 minutes - 46.2 MBThis week we talk about our little glamping break in the woods. Before the break, Harper made a difficult choice about her work-in-progress. We’ve been obsessed with Line of Duty and rewatched the previous seasons. We started Mare of Easttown and we wish we hadn’t because there’s only one episode a week! Caroline managed to finish a very long book in the woods: Shuggie Bain by Douglas Stuart. It’s a difficult read at times, but a beautiful book that deserves many stars. Tune in agai...
#102: Harper Was Discovered Thanks to Drag Queen Fanfic
April 15, 2021 12:48 - 36 minutes - 50.2 MBHarper is over the launch stress of At Your Most Beautiful and is very grateful to everyone who bought it.

#101: Harper Had an Easter Bunny That She Used to Know
April 08, 2021 14:37 - 34 minutes - 46.8 MBAt Your Most Beautiful is out and some reviews have been quite amusing! Launches are still stressful, even after so many books. We had a sedate Easter weekend which involved yummy oysters with Harper’s mother-in-law and beer brewed by Harper’s sister. Our entertainment has been very Flemish this past week, with tv shows Déjà Vu and Beau Séjour. We’re also enjoying Line of Duty very much. Caroline’s book of the week is A Dark Matter by Doug Johnstone, part of the Skelfs series. A pleasan...
#100: Harper Forgot All Her Jokes
April 01, 2021 14:13 - 35 minutes - 49.2 MBThis is our 100th episode, hurray! You’d think we would have got better at it by now. Harper has found her groove again in her work-in-progress. Caroline finished her work on our shady lady garden. At Your Most Beautiful is with the Launch Team and the first two chapters are available to read HERE. Launch stress is starting already! We are watching Mrs. America, but Harper is not that hooked. We also started a Flemish show called Déjà Vu. And we rewatched Dead Poets Society, which brou...
#99: Harper Is All Loungewear and Long Hair
March 25, 2021 10:56 - 36 minutes - 50.6 MBThis episode comes with some unplanned ASMR courtesy of the cat. The big news of the week is that Caroline got a haircut!

Harper’s been working on her French by listening to some s...
#97: Harper Is Having the Period From Hell
March 11, 2021 15:55 - 39 minutes - 54.5 MBWe’re back after a short break. Harper has started writing her new book, which features an unexpected but not unknown main character. In audio news: A Breathless Place is finally available on Audible! And At the Water’s Edge is on sale on Chirp (only available in the US and Canada.) We watched a lot of television during our time off, from the PSA for lockdown that is Contagion to the very of-the-times Ginny and Georgia. And watching The Mindy Project has led us to conclude that Harper is ...

February 18, 2021 15:12 - 32 minutes - 44.6 MBHarper is trying to finish the first draft of At Your Most Beautiful, because the notes for her next book are starting to pile up. She’s changed her morning routine to achieve her goal. She’s also planning on running every day. No Strings Attached is still free, get it if you haven’t yet.

February 11, 2021 11:43 - 33 minutes - 45.5 MBHarper is having an excellent writing week. At First Sight is out in audio. We also have an early Valentine’s Day treat: No Strings Attached (ebook) is free everywhere for a limited time. In television news, Celebrity Best Home Cook on the BBC is still such fun. Harper even picked up on some lesbian subtext, but it might just be wishful thinking. We’re trying out a new weekly segment: Caroline’s Book Club. This week’s book is Detransition, Baby by Torrey Peters and gets five stars from...
#93: Harper Hopes She Gets Another Email from Her Spirit
February 04, 2021 13:41 - 28 minutes - 39.8 MBThis week’s podcast is a bit cryptic because of projects we can’t talk about yet. Harper does have a Bliss-dom of the week brought on by the nine-year anniversary of the release of her very first novel (which shall never be mentioned again) and the seven-year anniversary of the first episode of French Kissing (available for free on all platforms.) Harper recommends the Bosch books if you have trouble sleeping. She also watched the movie Love, Simon on a sleepless night and had a good sob. W...
#92: Harper Wants Good Contemporary Lesbian Movies

We watched so much television the past week, especially French television with Call My Agent (the episode with Sigourney Weaver is hilarious) and Lupin, both on Netflix. We also started watching Six Fe...

January 21, 2021 11:40 - 32 minutes - 45.3 MBIn this week’s episode, Harper talks about her new Bliss-dom and her slower pace for life. Work on At Your Most Beautiful is progressing, both the book and the cover. Caroline is thinking of translating one of Harper’s books into French so she’s reading Nos chemins détournés, the French version of The Road to You, and she’s loving it. We binged Bridgerton over the weekend and loved it. So much so that we’ll be attending the online talk with the author of the novels, Julia Quinn. And to ...
