Turns out that old saying is true, that money can’t buy happiness. But it sure can ruin it.

“Wow! I ended up reading this book in one sitting—I could not put it down. … Danika Bloom books have now hit "don't need to know about the book, just need to get it" status in my TBR lists.” ~Kate A, Amazon

PAIGE

Josh Rhodes was the love of my life. We were all set to do the “til death do us part” thing. But when the video game he’d been working on for years sold for millions, I realized I wasn't prepared for the “for richer or poorer” part.

All Josh wanted to do was support me—because he finally could. But I’d seen what happens when a woman is financially dependent on a man. She gets stuck. Stays when she should leave. I just needed to prove that I could still support myself—if I had to. And now? Looks like I’ve made my fears come true.

JOSH

After years of surviving on ramen noodles, an investor threw me a bone and bought my family-friendly dog game for millions of dollars. With the promise of money in the bank, I was finally ready to make things official with Paige and put a ring on her finger.

But all the money scared her away. I supported her decision to take a job in London for four months, so she could prove something to herself. When months stretched into a year, I got mad. I told her not to bother coming back. So she didn’t.

Now she’s home to see her mom for Christmas and I’ll do anything to keep her from leaving again.

"I'm in love with this beautiful, lyrical, emotionally honest second-chance romance! ... I sighed a few times, I laughed a lot, and I teared up once or twice, too. This is my favorite book from this author, and I highly recommend it." ~Viper Spaulding, ARC reviewer

so heartwarming!

There are just so many good things to love about this book. Paige's mixed up/combined words. Appreciations - what a great idea, to end the day with one thing that you're grateful for in the other person, an affirmation for grounding before a hard conversation. The fact that Paige and Josh don't dwell so much on what happened between them in the past, but instead go right to that hard conversation, trying to figure out how to move forward together. Nana - this wonderful woman is filled with love, and strong enough to keep her six grandsons and their father in line (most of the time), and refuses to let go of Paige and Josh as a couple. The book is just a wonderful read, a story of forgiveness and second chances, in both romance and family.

Josh and Paige's second chance

Reviewed in the United States on December 11, 2020

Verified Purchase

“Third Party” by Danika Bloom is part of ‘The Mixed Six-Pack’ series, and features Josh, the video game developer, who has fought for the past two years to get over his first and only love, Paige. Her temporary return for the holidays evokes feelings he’d thought long-dead, as well as rekindles the conflict that forced them apart in the first place.

This adult contemporary romance is a lovely second-chance tale, and it does a great job of connecting to the series while standing alone with no problem. I love to get glimpses of characters from previous stories, so it was wonderful that the previous two couples made cameo appearances. The secondary characters give depth to the story and Nana provides some lighthearted moments as she meddles to bring these two stubborn people to their senses.

I love the idea of the video game and appreciated the multi-level conflicts that are addressed throughout the story. One of the things I like most about the books in this series is the realism that acknowledges that life can be messy and complicated and sometimes awkward. I look forward to reading about the other brothers in this series

Love Paige and Josh so Much!

Wow! I ended up reading this book in one sitting - I could not put it down!
I loved the story of Paige and Josh and was so happy to go along on their second-chance journey.
Honestly, Danika Bloom books have now hit 'don't need to know about the book, just need to get it!" status in my TBR lists.
The friendships, families, hopes, dreams, concerns, fears, are all so real.
Danika has a unique gift of making all of her scenes and characters' thoughts and traits so real. I feel their pain. I feel their sadness. I feel their struggles.
Most of all, I cheer along with them when things go right and I always love and appreciate a happily ever after - especially one that is so well-deserved!
I always learn something new - whether it is a Hero/Heroine's hobby or career - I always feel like I've learned true details and insights after reading Danika's books - I can tell she puts in the research and work to get the details right.
I already books 1 and 2 a few months ago, and was looking forward to this book - I really like how Danika weaves the other brothers into the stories - these books can be read as stand-alones or in order - just read them!

This is the 3rd book I've read written by Danika Bloom; she has done a great job at writing a good book; I can’t wait to read more of her books.

The story line caught my attention at the very beginning and kept me interested throughout the entire book.

I loved the characters.

Second Chance Romance

Reviewed in the United States on December 7, 2020

Danika has done it again! Her third book in the Mixed Six-Pack Series is as lovely as the first two. Her writing style brings you right in and you can't help but fall in love with her characters.

Josh and Paige grew up very differently, but that didn't stop them from becoming friends, then lovers, and then engaged. However, those differences caused a major misunderstanding and everything fell apart. It's been a year since the engagement was called off and both still loves the other. Can they find their common ground and work through their differences to find their happy ever after? They sure can, if his Nana has anything to say about it!

Paige is so sweet and lovable, yet just a little broken due to her relationship with her dad. I really like her. It was a struggle at times to love Josh. He was being so stubborn until he wasn't. This is a sweet loving story about a big family and one couple that deserves every happiness and I am so glad they get through that journey together, finally.

This third book in the Mixed Six Pack series is another winner.

Reviewed in Canada on December 6, 2020

With each book in this series, I'm falling more in love with this family of brothers. Josh and Paige's second chance romance is fabulous, fraught with just enough conflict to make me turn the page, but not so much that I felt the intrusion of the author. Plus, dogs. What's not to love? Hurry and pick up your copy, you won't be disappointed.

Never misses.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on May 5, 2021

Verified Purchase

Danika Bloom never misses with her romance. I love these books and she has a real way with dialogue. It's witty, sparky, playful and fun. It always makes me giggle with delight. As with the rest of the series no matter how at odds the leads may be it is always a pleasure to see how they work through it all and come back together. I fly through these books but not because I want them to end, because I get so swept up in their story I can't wait to see what's going to happen next. I love this book and what it adds to the overall story of these brothers. Portmanteau words, sexy cleaning (watch where you spray the multipurpose cleaner!) and surprising speeches, this books is a joy start to finish.

Third Party: A second chance romance for the holidays

Reviewed in Canada on December 10, 2020

Verified Purchase

Danika Bloom teases us with the play on words throughout Third Party.

The story opens with Paige. To spend Christmas with her mother, she has returned to Vancouver from London, after a two-year absence. The rain in Vancouver, so different from London, fills our senses.

Paige is ambivalent about an invitation from Nana to visit. Nana is her ex’s grandmother whose home of sixty years, stands proud and grand, as it has for a hundred years, in an area of stately old homes close to the University Endowment Lands. Paige used to walk Nana’s dog, Ranger, there. He was the first of hundreds of dogs she trained. Ranger’s fur, fresh from the groomers, and Nana’s signature perfume bring back happy memories of the eight years she had been basically a part of Josh’s family.

The point of view is carried throughout by Paige and Josh, but third parties have their own agendas – especially Nana. She is the Obi-Wan Kenobi of the Rhodes family dynamic, but she cannot control the negative influences others have on Paige and Josh.

Having been raised by her mother alone from a young age, Paige’s fear of abandonment had unexpectedly been resurrected by Josh’s newfound wealth. Paige left for Europe to seek independent financial security amid gold-digger accusations.

Josh, on the other hand, is less complex. If he isn’t working 24/7 on his virtual game development, he is missing Paige and measuring every relationship by her standard. His ego was wounded by her sudden flight, just when he was finally able to support her the way she had supported him. When she decided to stay abroad for a second year, he broke off their engagement in a huff.

During Paige’s visit, they are thrown together at every turn. She and Josh play this emotionally taxing cat and mouse game, falling into familiar habits and irresistible sexual encounters, but unable to express their inner fears and conflicts.

Danika frustrates us with their fragile psyches but takes us sensually from the kitchen to the bedroom and the two-person shower. She weaves a web of unspoken words and hidden deeds that keep Paige striving toward an elusive dream for financial security and Josh wallowing in limbo with his secrets.

You know Danika Bloom promises an HEA ending, but the getting there? That will keep you reading. I cannot tell you more about the Third Party, but to say: it’s a frustrating, exciting, maddening, and exhilarating journey to get there.

Very sweet second-chance romance

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 6, 2020

Verified Purchase

Third Party is a sweet second-chance romance. This is the third book in the series, each can be read as a standalone as each one following a different Rhodes brother. This one follows Josh and Paige.

Josh and Paige were engaged until it all went to hell and Josh has decided to call it quits. Fast forward a year and, with the help of Josh's Nana, they found their way back into each other's lives. They are still very much in love, but past insecurities are difficult to over come.

Third Party is at times very emotional read. I was just rooting for Josh and Paige to sort through their issues so they get back together, because it was obvious that they were perfect for each other. I love how neither of them moved on or even have a fling the entire time they were broken up. It really shows how deeply they loved each other.

I adored Josh. He was just so easy to like. I love how he always tried to put Paige first, and how patient he was with her once they reunited. He was always there to support her to follow her dream, like she has supported him to follow his. I liked Paige, even though she sometimes acted before she thought things through. Thankfully, once she cooled down and had time to think, she realised that she overreacted and then tried to fix it.

Paige and Josh resumed their relationship pretty fast and things were almost too perfect, to the point where I expected the second shoe to drop. But besides few minor hiccups, the couple remained strong until the very end. It was beautiful to witness them giving their relationship another shot, each making an effort to make the relationship work this time round.
