It's been a couple years since I picked up one of Bella Andre's Sullivan series books and I wonder why I've waited so long. I was able to dive right back in to this extensive family and I barely missed a beat. I will say that with the crazy big family, so many of them do make appearances (or at least mentions) and it is hard to keep track of everyone. But really, it made me want to go back and re-read their stories.
I loved the romance between Kerry and Adam. The sparks leapt off the page and it kept me glued to the book. I just had to know how they were going to move from friends with benefits to their happily ever after... and it was quite well done. Highly recommend to contemporary romance fans!

Wow! I really loved this story, the sparks fly when Kerry and Adam first meet, and from that point on they practically combust. This is definitely the hottest of the Sullivan Series. It was also great to catch up with the whole Sullivan family, and be introduced to some new ones too. I will definitely be checking out Drake's story when it's released later this year.

Another adorable story from Bella Andre. Page one opens and Adam is immediately a douche, and you know exactly what is going to happen here....
Then he gets conned into meeting Kerry ... and ... you know ....
Then shit starts to get real. It's not all flirtatious looks and hot sex, reality sets in. These people have real world problems. And Adam and Kerry prove to the readers that they can focus on more than just each other. A messed up sister drives the plot forward and shows Adam just how much he really cares, though he doesn't necessarily realize it.
Then! Shocker! Messed up sister seems to actually know best and gives some great advice. Hell yeah - didn't see that coming.
After all of this we get back into the adorableness of their relationship.
But .... wait ... some unnecessary drama. Fake reasons they can't be together.... gah, how annoying.
In the end though, the story was cute and I was really rooting for Adam and Kerry.
Another excellent Sullivan story. Can hardly wait for the next one. ((though I sadly think I am caught up now))
Bella Andre, that was damn good, you damn well nailed it.

Man, I am just addicted to this series on audio. I only have one left that I haven't read! I hope the next book is coming soon.

Another great Sullivan story! Adam and Kerry are a great pair - and I enjoyed watching them stumble through their emotions! A good read

Adam Sullivan isn’t like his siblings. Or his cousins (which are mentioned often enough for us to realize there are previous books in this series and that there will be more in the series). But he isn’t going to fall in love; he’s not even interested in the state. So that’s why he’s so arrested by the heroine in the first ten pages of the book.
Kelly Dromoland is a wedding planner who definitely believes in love. She knows that all of the Sullivans are handsome but, when looking at pictures, she’s always been drawn to Adam the most. So when he walks in as the substitute for his brother Rafe and Rafe’s fiancé, she is immediately attracted even more. But she knows that he’s a player so she rejects his advances. So he chases her by sending her sweets that she can’t resist. So she says she’ll be in a physical relationship with him even though she really wants love; she’s willing to give up on her dream for a chance at just getting to sleep with him.
I didn’t really like either the heroine or the hero. Adam was a jerk who just kept overriding all of Kelly’s feelings and then getting upset because she was acting the way he told her he wanted her to act. And Kelly was set up as this amazing business person but she can’t stand up to either Adam or her mother.

Bella Andre at her best. I love Adam! He is among my favorite Sullivans. Beautiful love story conquering all doubts and fears, proving that love and forever are just words until you found The One.

I absolutely adored seeing Adam and Kerry find each other. I think I love their build up to their romance because neither of them were actually looking for a relationship. Adam is such a strong character and he needed someone every bit as strong as him, and Kerry is his perfect match. I loved they had major stumbling as they moved from a just sex relationship to friends with benefits. I think because Adam was the first to realize he was in love, it made it all the sweeter to me. I really have loved each of the Sullivan stories to date and loved Kerry and Adam's story just as much as all the other. Bella Andre once again pulled me in from page one and made me want the story to last long after it was over.
