Just one night-Marcus Sullivan has always been the responsible older brother, stepping in to take care of his seven siblings when their father died. But when the perfectly ordered future he's planned turns out to be a lie, Marcus needs one reckless night to shake free from it all. Known throughout the world by only one name—Nico—pop songstress Nicola Harding is seen as the ultimate sex kitten. But it's all a lie. After a terrible betrayal she refuses to let anyone else close enough to find out who she really is or to hurt her again. Especially the gorgeous stranger at the bar. One night is all Nicola and Marcus agree to share with each other. But instead, a deeper connection than either of them could have anticipated begins.
I absolutely loved The
Look of Love by Belle Andre and almost immediately began reading From this Moment On. The tale features Marcus
Sullivan who impressed me in book one and made me fall in love with him in book
two. Andre has created such a wonderful and interesting family with the
Sullivans’ and her writing style allowed me to slip into the pages and escape.
Three word review: romantic, touching, hot.
Marcus is the oldest Sullivan and has always felt
responsible for his seven siblings since his father’s passing. For the past two years he has dated a woman
whom he thought he would marry and create a family with. In one afternoon he discovers he had it all
wrong. Wounded and needed to let loose a
little he sets out to have a wild one night stand. Nicola Harding is tired of
life in the spotlight and the demands of her career. She wants a little escape
and sets out to have an anonymous night of fun. When these two meet the sparks
fly, and they agree to share one night but sometimes one night is never enough!
Marcus is totally swoon worthy and 99% good guy with just a
hint of naught in the bedroom. *swoons* He is a successful family man and a
natural at making some of the best wine. Marcus is loyal, caring, intelligent
and grounded but he can also be uptight while appearing to be all cool and
collected. Seeing him cut loose was wonderful and I loved that he had no idea
who Nicola was or any of the movers and shakers. Nicola is sweet and hides
behind her public image. She appears so confident and assured on the outside
but Marcus sees below the persona. I loved the banter and heat between them.
Andre allows both characters to grow and I loved watching it unfold. Of course
we see the other siblings and I cannot wait to read all of their stories.
I literally consumed this in a single evening as the rest of
the world slipped away. I laughed, burst out giggling, blushed and fell
completely for the characters. Andre
gave us some twists and turns on the way to our happily ever after, and I
enjoyed watching it all unfold and fall into place. Marcus took me by surprise
in the bedroom, adding a little more heat with his dominating side. Ooh-la-la
peeps! Even though the relationship
developed rather quickly, Andre made it feel genuine. While the romance was
hot, one of the things that appealed to me the most was the growth and healing
we see in both characters as they lean on and learn from the other. I closed
the book with a smile and cannot wait to crack open the next book.
Fans of close-knit siblings and hot little romances will
enjoy From this Moment On and the
entire Sullivans’ series. Can’t Help
Falling in Love is the next book in the series. Look for my review in
August. Bella Andre is quickly becoming
one of my favorite new series authors. Fans of Robyn Carr who wouldn’t mind a
little more heat will adore this series.
