Karina Bliss

Karina Bliss is a well-known author who hails from New Zealand. She is best recognized for her romance novels, which often feature second chance stories of protagonists who get another chance at love after missing it the first time. Her heroes and heroines are also commonly disrupted by unexpected elements that lead them to their lovers.\n \n Bliss has always been a professional writer, starting her career as a travel journalist before transitioning to writing romance novels. She has a vivid imagination and has created characters who have lived lives full of adventure. These characters have experienced a range of unique situations, including swapping identities with twins, raising orphaned children with ex-spouses, wearing cow costumes to Bachelor and Spinster balls, considering marriage for the sake of a baby, and even becoming mayor of a small town.\n \n Despite the exciting lives of her characters, Bliss herself leads a more low-key life. She is committed to the belief that love conquers all, and that a woman wants a man who knows how to clean. Unfortunately, she does not currently live with or has raised such a man. Bliss has achieved several career highlights, including being the first Australasian to win a Golden Heart from the Romance Writers of America. Her debut novel, Mr Imperfect, won a Romantic Book of the Year Award in Australia, and her first self-published title, RISE, also finaled. She has written several books in the Rock Solid series, including Mr Imperfect, RISE, FALL, PLAY, and RESURRECTION.
