One phone call was all it took. A voice on the answering machine, a man oblivious to what calling me would do, uprooted my entire existence. He revived old hurts, dug up past nightmares. He destroyed everything I’d built for myself.
But I found bliss through Grey, in Grey.
Grey
I had no idea that making a simple phone call, one that devastated me because of the reasons behind it, would make me question my truths, my friendships, everything I held dear in my little town. Calling her was the best and worst decision I’d ever made, but it brought her to me, to Bliss.
And I could never take that back.
Finding Bliss is a story about redemption, of love, of finding true, irrevocable bliss. It’s about new beginnings and the heights you can attain during them.
Not intended for readers under the age of eighteen due to language and sexual situations.

I
replayed it, transfixed. The voice on the machine was deep,
masculine…striking. He had the most soothing tone I’d ever heard
– and I’d spoken to a lot of people over the phone because of my
job. His was something different, something that called to me in a
way that was profound.
A
shiver tripped down my spine as I played it a third time.
“Grey
Raiden,” I murmured.
It
was a great name.
A
really
great name.
And
the voice!
I
was about to push the button for the fourth time when I stopped
myself.
What
am I doing?
This
is crazy!
A
voice shouldn’t do this to me.
I
took a step back and stared at the answering machine, wondering what
in the world was going on with me. It had to have been the
conversation with Paige. She must have flipped on something inside me
or planted a seed in my mind, forcing me to focus on something
outside of my norm.
That
had to be it.
I
turned and headed for the bathroom, telling myself to forget the
voice on the machine. I didn’t need to hear it again, nor was it
important to call him back.
