If You Were Mine: The Sullivans, Book 5 (Contemporary Romance) [NOOK Book]

Holy crap

## Holy crap! This book was magnificent! Fabulous, outstanding, tremendous and any other positive adjective you can dream up. Zach was so amazingly hot; confident yet unbelievably sweet and thoughtful. And did i mention he was hot? I love the way the author did not play up his playboy status by reminding the reader over and over and over like so many others do. And I absolutely adored the heroine Heather. What a beautiful, strong and fun loving surprise she was. This Sullivan series is one of the best I've ever read. I can't wait for Ryan's story. In addition to this series i would also recommend the 'Bad boys of football' series and the 'Hot shots' series by Ms. Andre. Note to author: You Rock!

Big yawn! this series is getting boring. I don't know what the deal is with this author. Her writing used to be so hot. The writing was compelling and her stories were page turners. This is just so flat. I expected zach to be a more interesting guy and from previous descriptions, not quite so easily swayed by any woman. And heather is as boring as a cup of watery insipid herbal tea.

Maybe Bela's current publisher doesn't allow the explicit language and super-hot sex that Bela used to write with such style. Heck, even in the first couple books in this series she was allowed to use the names of body parts. Oh well. Bela, I hope you can turn it around. Until then I'll stick with your great books from 4 or 5 years ago! I do not recommend spending money on this one.

OMG! I loved this book series. This is almost my favorite book

OMG! I loved this book series. This is almost my favorite book out of all of them. Zack is so sexy and sweet. I read this book all night and half a day. My eyes were burning. And red cause I couldn't put this down. I can't wait for book number 6. I also love the McCarthy series. It is similar to this one.
Way to go Bella Andre!

This was one of the best Sullivan Brothers stories! I love how Heather was able to resist (or so she thought) Zach. And WOW, did he turn out to be such a sweet guy. Can't wait to read Ryan's story next!

A Great Read

This book was almost my favorite one of the series but I like the others so well, it is hard to label a favorite one. The entire plot of how Zach and Heather got together and first met was so romantic. Throw in a couple absolutely adorable doggies and you just can' t go wrong! This story did not keep stressing the wealth and fame of the Sullivan family. The two Sullivan twins always throw in their two cents of laughter!

Awesome

I almost cried toward the end. I had to gulp down the tears several times over Zach and his revelation. I admired Heather for her determination to get through her ordeal as well. So, this one is my second favorite of the Sullivan series.

If anyone asks me what my favorite romance novel is I never have

If anyone asks me what my favorite romance novel is I never have an answer because I love so many. I now have an answer, this book is over 600 pages and I could not stop reading until my eyes hurt so bad. This book is wonderful. All the Sullivan books are fabulos.

Love Sneaks Up on a Sullivan

Another great Sullivan story. Sweet, passionate, amusing. Zack and Heather both have decided not to fall in love, each for their own reasons. It happens when neither is looking and what fun it is to watch it unfold. Can't wait for the next installment.

I am a huge fan of Bella Andre! I have enjoyed every one of these Sullivan books to date and this one was no different.


Heather has never given love a chance. Having grown up in a family where love was just an illusion, she had her view of love shattered at a young age.


Zach is a lady's man. Rich and Good looking, he never has problems finding willing women to share his bed with no strings attached.


Upon his first meeting with Heather, Zach knows there is something different about her. No woman has ever got to him the way she does. Problem... Heather's view on relationships is even more skewed than his own. Zach must prove to him they are nothing like his parents.


I loved the subtle changes in Zach. I felt like his fall into love was a smooth and steady one. He was not afraid to let his feelings be known once he had them. The chemistry between him and Heather was great. This is one of those book couples you route for the whole time. I had tears in my eyes at points. I loved that Zach's story gave us more insight into Jack Sullivan.


The added bonus of reading about the dogs, Cuddles and Atlas, was great. I loved their relationship with each other it sounded like one of those email strings of pictures with odd "best friends" in the animal world. Too cute!


Can not wait for #6!

Great

This was the best so far. Zach has always been intense and pairing him up with a cuddly puppy and strong female rocks the solid foundation he built for himself. Definately read these books in order. You wont be disappointed.

Sexy, hotter then his movie star brother, filthy rich and with a

Sexy, hotter then his movie star brother, filthy rich and with a puppy in tow – what women could resist the middle son, Zack, of the Sullivan’s Family? Well that is what he is wondering when he meets the equally sexy Heather Linsey and she promptly tells him she isn’t interested.

Zach will do anything for his family. So when Zack’s brother asks him to keep his puppy while his family is on vacation he can’t bring himself to say no - even though a puppy does not fit into his hectic life as the owner of multiple car repair shops and busy bachelor. After just a few hours with “Cuddles”, the mischievous puppy, he is ready to pull his hair out. However, his life get’s even more complicated when a little old lady customer takes pity on him and sends Heather, a dog trainer, to him hoping she will take him on as a client and help train the little crazed puppy.

From the moment Heather arrives at Zack’s service station the sparks begin to fly between them. And although Zack is charming and full of one-liners packed with sexual innuendo and comic relief Heather doesn’t want anything to do with him. She agrees to help him get started with puppy training but insists that he will work with another trainer long term and firmly draws a line. Little does she know that she is doing the one thing no one has ever done before – not falling for his charm or money and turning their attraction into a challenge. Zack is immediately hooked and the harder she tries to push him away – the harder he fights to get her.

Heather has sworn off love – believing that it isn’t really real and just an act that her parents put on for her to cover the fact that her father has always been sleeping around. Zack’s charm sets her nerves on edge and it takes her really getting to know him before she see’s the man deep within. Luckily he is up for the challenge.

Zack has no problem with love, in fact, he knows it’s wonderful which is why he has avoided it. Ever since Zack’s father died when he was just seven his biggest fear is that he will one day leave behind a widow to morn him. So he has kept women at a distance. And that was fine until he met Heather and subsequently now can’t imagine living a moment without her. But is enjoying whatever time he can have with her and possibly falling in love worth the risk of leaving her to a life without him if their time is cut short? It is a question he struggles with constantly. And can Heather learn that all men are not like her father?

Zack is a joy for both Heather and the reader to learn more about. They start off their relationship agreeing to keep things casual with no strings attached since that is all they both are comfortable with. But regardless of their concerns about developing things too emotionally, Zack is such a sweet guy that things can’t help but progress. He is funny and has a knack for making each simple moment they share into something memorable. If you have not read this series before this could be read as a stand-alone. However, most of the family (a total of eight siblings and his mom) makes appearances throughout and you will enjoy it more if you go back and read the previous books in the series. Although both characters have their own concerns about getting into something they both are mentally healthy and mature in their current lives. Their relationship progresses naturally and yet still at a relatively quick pace given their concerns. All in all though it is a believable story and masterfully written as all of Bella Andre’s books are. This one and the rest of this series should have their own space on the “to keep and read again and again” shelf!

RATING: Five chocolate dipped strawberries enjoyed with a puppy in your lap!

I actually found myself getting teary-eyed reading this story. How I love the Sullivan family! I have decided that Bella Andre can do no wrong when writing her wonderful romance novels. I hate finishing a book of hers and knowing I have to wait to read the next one in the series! But, its all well worth the wait. Zach and Heather's story is just as amazing as any of the other Sullivan stories, but for some reason, this story held a soft spot in my heart....maybe it was the dog connection, maybe it was just darn good writing. Either way, this book is worth every minute and penny! Thanks again Bella!
