Publisher's summary

Can two people who have both sworn off love find forever in each other's arms? Find out in If You Were Mine, the fifth book in Bella Andre's best-selling Sullivan family contemporary romance series.

The last thing Zach Sullivan wants is to take care of his brother's new puppy for two weeks. Until he meets the dog trainer, that is. Heather is bright, beautiful, and he can't stop thinking about her. Unfortunately, she just might be the only woman on earth who wants nothing to do with him.

Heather Linsey can't believe she's stuck working with one of the city's top dogs, auto-shop tycoon Zach Sullivan. Especially when his focus is clear from the start-not only to learn how to deal with his temporary puppy...but also to make her his. Having sworn off love at seventeen when she realized it was nothing more than a pack of lies, Heather has stuck to her vow never to fall for a charming man.

But as Heather's determination to push Zach away only fuels his determination to get closer-and the sensual and emotional connection between them grows more and more undeniable-will the biggest Sullivan bad boy of all tempt her into believing in love again?

The first 4 books in the Sullivan series are also available! Book 1: THE LOOK OF LOVE (Chase)

Book 2: FROM THIS MOMENT ON (Marcus)

Book 3: CAN'T HELP FALLING IN LOVE (Gabe)

Book 4: I ONLY HAVE EYES FOR YOU (Sophie)

Another hit for the Sullivan family series

Zach is a mechanic. Okay he owns 30+ mechanic shops and is independently wealthy. When Summer foists a puppy on Zach to take care of, well the story opens up from there. As usual the plot is great and the twists that go around it make it interesting. Heather, the dog trainer, is a handful and is quitre endearing in this novel. Yup, its a bit formulaic in parts, but who doesn't like a puppy! Especially a puppy as great as Cuddles. I also liked they way she used a metaphor of Atlas and Cuddles. You'll have to read this one to know what I mean here.

Kaminsky does a great job. People who are hooked on the series won't be disappointed. Go back and read them all. I want to see how all the family members pan out. A Big thumbs up.

Love the Sullivans!!

Where does If You Were Mine: The Sullivans, Book 5 rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

What does Eva Kaminsky bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

She is wonderful for this series, I couldn't think of anyone else reading it.

Sizzling, sexy & totally hot! Love those Sullivans

I totally loved Zack Sullivan. I was thinking that this book would be good but I did not think it could get any better with this series. I am so glad to report...I was wrong. Zack Sullivan is strong, sweet and so charming. Zack is so very sweet to Heather and helps her regain her faith in the male species. Their story is very touching and I simply can’t wait to read book #6. Please keep these books coming. They are terrific!!!! This book and the series gets 5 stars from me. I wish I could give it a 10.

50 Shades?

This book is so much like "50 Shades of Grey" one would wonder which book came out first.

Gave up!

Would you try another book from Bella Andre and/or Eva Kaminsky?

No. I tried this book because it was on sale and because it had high reviews. I was not able to finish this book. The characters were flat and boring. Granted, I have not read the entire series so maybe if i had read the series, I would have found the Sullivan family interesting.

What was most disappointing about Bella Andre’s story?

I knew I hit cheese-Overload when Zach finds Heather in his kitchen making eggs and he basically feels a pang in his heart. He's had a lot of women offer to make him breakfast in the past but he's never let a woman do it because he's never wanted to get that close or some mumbo-jumbo like that. Come on, we are talking about a grown man turning down countless meals! I grew up with a lot of men and if there is one thing I know, they never turn down food!

core romance with the Love of dogs

What did you like best about If You Were Mine: The Sullivans, Book 5? What did you like least?

our hero is just plain sexy. Our heroine is just too unsure for me! Weak women who get strong at the end of a story are not for me. the author is too busy making sure you want to buy the rest of the series. I caution you to finish one first before buying more.

If you’ve listened to books by Bella Andre before, how does this one compare?

You can choose which ever story you like. I picked this one #5, it started out with a puppy.this is a new author for me, she writes all the stories very wordy, almost like a diary. These are not for me. Listen to the full story before buying more.

What three words best describe Eva Kaminsky’s voice?

She is not for me. I have only a few I really love. anna fields, natalie ross, gabra zackman.I buy most of these 3 readers work.

Was If You Were Mine: The Sullivans, Book 5 worth the listening time?

2/3 of the way, great. then it faded. I am not looking for Hemmingway. I do like a book that makes you want to return for another listen. this was not it

Another passionate addition 2 the Sullivans Series

Any additional comments?

If You Were Mine is another incredibly romantic sexy addition to the Sullivans series. It seems like every time I read about the next Sullivan, I fall in love with them, and then with the whole family, all over again.Zach and Heather’s story really kept me entertained. From their first meeting where Heather gets the wrong impression of Zach, to his attempts to win her over with the cuteness that is Cuddles the Yorkie puppy, I couldn’t get enough of their evolving relationship. Not that either one of them wanted to admit that they were in a relationship. I was blown away with how sweet and loving Zach turned out to be and how hard he tried to keep Heather from getting hurt later on. His caring nature showed through in his every action (and interaction) with his family, Heather, and of course Cuddles and Atlas. I can understand how Heather’s past was something that would define how she viewed men and why she would shield her heart at all costs. But, boy, once she lets herself love someone…she loves them with everything she has. Talk about two people who are meant for each other! Also I must say that Eva Kaminsky has delivered another perfect narration.... :)

A Yorkie and a Dane, what a match!

Where does If You Were Mine: The Sullivans, Book 5 rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

It would be in my, what a lovely, romantic, lift me up story pile.

What was one of the most memorable moments of If You Were Mine: The Sullivans, Book 5?

When Cuddles misses Zach and vice versa. I can just imagine the big man missing the tiny little Yorkie especially when his heart feels so fragile at that moment.

What does Eva Kaminsky bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

I think she brings it ALL!!! She's a wonderful narrator. So creative, so believable so talented. She makes the story and the characters come alive!

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Well it made me laugh and cry. I think the characters were meant to be and it was just a very enjoyable book, through and through!

Any additional comments?

Ready for the next one!!!

Entertaining and Fun

This series is light and entertaining. If you are expecting great literature, you will be disappointed, but if you are looking for a well-written romance that follows the traditional formula, these stories are fun. The narration is easy to listen to, the Sullivan family are too good to be true, but likeable, and Bella Andre writes a steamy love scene as well as any I've read. Good for bedtime listening of if you want to switch your brain off and enjoy yourself.
