Spiral of Bliss is Nina Lane’s signature series and the one that put her on the USA Today bestseller list. Beginning with Arouse in 2012, the series follows Dean West, a college professor, and his wife Liv as their seemingly solid marriage is tested by secrets, professional pressures, and the weight of the past.

What sets Spiral of Bliss apart is its starting point — the couple is already married when the series begins. Instead of the typical will-they-won’t-they structure, Lane writes about the harder, less glamorous work of staying together when everything conspires to pull you apart. The series runs eight books across the main storyline and related novellas.

What makes Spiral of Bliss different from other romance series?
