Re-released in a second edition with new content.

Three lost souls

Growing up in the eclectic, small town of Bliss was wonderful for Callie Sheppard. She loved everything about it, except for the lack of potential romantic partners. She only went wild once in her life, sharing a perfect weekend in Dallas with two incredible men she never thought she would see again. When they parted, she was left with a hole in her heart she feared would never be filled.

One romantic weekend

DEA agents Nathan Wright and Zane Hollister were thrilled when Callie agreed to spend the weekend with them. Just days away from a long, undercover assignment, they considered this passionate affair to be an ideal way to spend their last days of freedom. They never expected to fall in love. Leaving her behind was the hardest decision of their lives.

An unexpected reunion

Six years later, Callie is preparing to break in a new sheriff after Rye Harper walked out on the job. Her heart skips a few beats when the man walking through the door is none other than Nate Wright. Nate and Zane have come to Bliss, but their time undercover has left them broken and scarred. The boys are determined to win back Callie’s heart. But when the criminals they took down come seeking revenge, Nate and Zane may have to save the strange little town of Bliss before they can reclaim the woman they love.

Two to Love by Sophie Oak

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

It's no surprise that i'm a huge fan of Lexi Blake's and especially her pen name Sophie Oak. While both are one and the same, i still maintain that they have differences that make the experience vary from one to the other. While Lexi Blake gets your blood pumping through her romantic suspense and the world of the Masters & Mercenaries, Sophie Oak's books will tug at your heart strings and make you see alternate lifestyles with a different eye.

Two To Love is the second book in the Nights In Bliss, Colorado - now i've had the chance to read the previous instalment, which was a story of different characters, so this was a bit of a surprise in a sense. Considering i had previously read the Texas Sirens, in a way i believed we'd continue with Rachel's story, so it came to a surprise when we got Callie's story. While it came as a surprise, i was captivated by this story.

It was heartfelt, emotional and it was unexpected. i'm used to seeing men be dominant, strong, ready to tackle any situation, and rarely do i see them really need someone to centre them, and yet, this is exactly what we get with Callie, Nate and Zane. Two ex DEAs who are trying to find something to keep them from doing something they might regret, and at the same time wanting to reconnect with their one regret - Callie. What touched me the most was that even through his pain and his own problems, Zane still thought about having Nate settled with the love of his life before wanting to disappear. For his part, Nate would do just about anything for Zane, to have his friend back, to get the woman that slipped through their fingers and find that one thing that has been eluding him since the moment he laid eyes on her.

For her part, Callie isn't the kind of woman that you can dismiss easily - she's incredibly strong physically and mentally, and for certain, able to handle just about anything anyone can throw her way. I loved how these characters came together. I'm just a bit disappointed that my own surprise in not seeing Rachel and her men come back again in another instalment get in my way - so for sure i'll be reading this story again in the future to truly appreciate the type of story that Sophie Oak created for her readers.

Callie Sheppard was startled by the sound of the door opening. She sat straight up in bed and wondered what the hell she was doing. It had seemed like a great idea at the time, but now a tremor of trepidation ran through her system. She was naked in a notorious BDSM club, waiting for two men to walk in and take her virginity.
