About this ebook

"This is Bella Andre at her finest! I love Elderflower Island, the bookshop, and Mari and Owen!" ~ 5 stars

All Mari Everett’s life, she’s had two secret dreams: To own a bookstore, and to reunite with her long lost father. But when he passes away unexpectedly and she inherits his home and business, the only way she can learn about his life—especially why he abandoned her when she was three and never came back—is by leaving California to take over his bookstore in London.

Owen Sullivan lives and works on Elderflower Island, a close knit community in London where it’s impossible to keep a secret. It turns out, however, that Charlie Forsythe kept his daughter a secret from everyone for nearly thirty years. When Mari comes to London, Owen immediately falls for her. He’s never met a woman so intelligent, determined and honest. Not to mention so beautiful that she takes his breath away.

Soon, everyone on the island—including Owen’s four siblings, parents and grandmother—is pitching in to help give the bookstore a fresh start. But as insatiable passion develops into love, will Mari and Owen be able to grab hold of their fresh start? Or will their pasts continue to cast a dark shadow over their chance at a brilliant future together in London?

"I loved Elderflower Island and couldn't put this book down! Mari and Owen's story is exactly what you hope for in a Sullivan romance." ~ 5 stars

"I loved how Bella Andre wrote about London! She brought everything to life so I could visit there without leaving home. Such a heartwarming story!" ~ 5 stars

"I adore the Sullivans! They love hard, laugh uproariously and live in the moment." 5 stars

Bella Andre knows how to write romance. A reader can't go wrong with As Long As I Have You. It might be love at first sight but the author has a way of taking the now and making it WOW. I am so stoked that I get to fall for another Sullivan family, even better I get to go home to England without leaving the comfort of my chair. Mari has been a little lost since her day left her at age 3. She dreams of one day going to England and seeing her dad, discovering the why's. One phone call closes that door but opens another door. Without a solid plan, Mari flies to the Elderflower Island, London, England to a bookshop she now owns. The only way to get to know her dad is to take over the shop and flat. Mari is staring at a disaster left by an ill man. A man she didn't know. A man that never told the villagers of his daughter in America. Owen Sullivan walking into the shop begins a journey to become whole. It takes a village to raise a child, even a full grown lady that has never been whole. The characters are a joy. The author has painted a wonderful picture of the village and its quaint shops. My mouth drooled over their afternoon teas and dinners. My heart beat loudly for the growing attraction between Mari and Owen. Their relationship was a fantastic way to learn more about both of the characters and to see how well they fit. I can't wait to add more of the London Sullivans to my library.

The Sullivans are back!! This is such a sweet and wonderful story about love, family and really going for what makes you happy! I am so excited to get a whole new batch of Sullivans to fall in love with and lucky for us this time they live across the pond. Bella Andre blends her amazing words with a treat of fantastic descriptions of places in London I would love to go some day. These characters are so incredible and real. I adore Owen and Mari! And all the other Sullivan’s we meet in this book too. Owen is a fantastic hero to start with! I could just hear his sexy British accent as I was reading. This is one seriously swoonworthy man! He is so giving, caring and special it’s impossible not to fall in love him. Mari is a delight! She is so brave to go on this adventure from her comfort zone in California to Elderflower Island in London to settle up her recently deceased father’s estate. It all ends up being such an eye opening and life changing experience for her and Owen. She lights up his life! Learning about her father through all of the people he interacted with daily sure changed her frame of reference for him. And the kindness Owen and his family show her allows her to realize her dreams and finally be content and happy with her life. I loved everything about this story from start to finish. I can’t wait to read about more of this branch of the Sullivan family!

The Sullivans have always been my favorite family along with all of their adventures of finding love and their happily Ever After. Your stories are wonderful and I love reading each of their adventures and they all make me smile, laugh, cry and fall in love with them. Owners and Mari are no exception to loving their story and seeing what comes next. Their story based around a bookstore made the story more heartwarming and loveable. Get your copy today and read how wonderful the London Sullivans will be.
