This first book in the spin-off series focuses on small town confectionary creator/artisan Cassie Sullivan and big wig Hollywood screen writer Flynn Stewart. Flynn has adopted his deceased sister’s daughter – Ruby. Flynn trying to keep Ruby and himself out of the media limelight and the grasping hands of those who want 5 minutes of fame and/or a big wad of cash, travels to Bar Harbor and rents a cottage from Cassie. <br /><br />Cassie is exuberant, super cheery and open-hearted – with no false pretences – for Flynn she is almost like a rare unicorn, he is used to an altogether different sort of woman, and even Cassie’s family are a delightful surprise for Flynn and Ruby.<br /><br />Cassie and Flynn are entertaining characters and together sweet, but I did want more layers to them both and their relationship, things were a tad superficial, although not so much that I disliked the read. I did enjoy the inclusion of Cassie’s family, and her siblings ensured some amusing moments. <br /><br />A sweet light romance, that is very gentle on the reader’s mind and heart, a slight issue that I had was that the read did start to feel a little formulaic, something I’m usually happy with, but after the 50% or so mark I really felt it.<br /><br /><b> 99p on Amazon 3rd June 2019. </b>

Your Love is Mine by Bella Andre was the first book in the Maine Sullivan series and the nineteenth book in the overall Sullivan series.<br /><br />Flynn Stewart was now a single father. He was an Award Winning Screenwriter who just adopted his late (and estranged) sister’s six month old daughter, Ruby. As an elite in Hollywood, he was fodder for the tabloids so he needed to privately get away. His friend, and famous Hollywood actor, Smith Sullivan had a cousin who rented out a cabin in a Maine remote town that was perfect for Flynn and Ruby.<br /><br />Cassie Sullivan was sunshine. She brought goodness, happiness and light into everything she touched. She was also an artist who turned her passion for candy making into delicious art.<br /><br />Andre created a sweet and sexy story with heartfelt moments. It was goodness mixed in with reflection, acceptance and new directions. It was a quintessential “good feels” story.<br /><br />Andre also set the stage for the series by introducing each family member within the Maine Sullivan series, seven siblings in all. They each had distinct personalities which promised for another great series. The renowned artisan woodworker, Rory, is up next in There Goes My Heart.

How she can keep each and every story fresh and exciting is beyond me. Yes, this is the the beginning of the Maine Sullivans but this is the 19th Sullivan story and, believe me when I tell you, you won't be able to put this one down. <br><br>Flynn's story is heartbreaking and wonderful. Ruby just added that little something to his story that will steal your heart. A sexy man, a baby and a past that left a lot to be desired … what a recipe for a beautiful story. My heart simultaneously broke and rejoiced for Flynn. <br><br>Cassie is a Sullivan so you know that she is going to be fierce and a force to be reckoned with. She's funny, fun and one of the most loving and understanding woman that I have read in a long time. Of course, she comes from a long line of wonderful Sullivan woman that all have the same traits.<br><br>But, what really touched me was how Flynn and Cassie meshed and how Ruby was the glue that held them together. He's admitting his secrets, she is letting someone into her kitchen. Ruby is just stealing everyone's heart and not giving it back. But, if you want to win her heart, you'll have to have Ellie The Elephant to keep her happy. And what can you say about Beth and Ethan and the rest of the Sullivan clan. They will always be there to support and love you, no matter the circumstances.<br><br>I loved it. There is no other way to put it. I loved Your Love is Mine. Bella Andre knows how to write a love story. She knows how to write characters that bring out every emotion that you have. She makes you smile, she makes you cry but she always leaves you satisfied and wishing that you were a Sullivan.<br>

Book 19 in <i>The Sullivans</i> series, you guys! <i>BOOK 19!</i> I can't believe the series I started reading back when it was just about The San Francisco branch, which hadn't even finished, would become this huge; and I especially can't believe how excited and in love I am with this family when I'm usually happy to read series of 3 books and then move on. However, Bella Andre has created a magical, loving and fascinating family in the romance genre that I can't get enough of.<br /><br /><i>Your Love is Mine</i> is where we get to know more about the Sullivans living in Maine and just like its predecessors, it doesn't disappoint. <br /><br />Cassie Sullivan's love story with Flynn Stewart is absolutely adorable. Here's a heroine filled with hope, courage and happiness; a heroine who's honest with herself and others; a heroine who's oh, so willing to help and love. She's definitely the woman Flynn Stewart needed in his life, the woman who arrived just in time to show him and precious baby Ruby that life is worth living; and how if we take one step a time (or one candy block at a time, haha), anything is possible. <br /><br />And then there's Flynn. Oh, Flynn. I wanted to get in the book and hug him and tell him everything would be okay. It was hard reading how much his childhood had affected him, the story he writes about Ellie the Elephant... <i>god,</i> so beautiful and heartbreaking as he gives life to his sister once again and realizes how brave he is, and how much love he has to give. A hero, who just like the characters he created for movies, manages to believe there will be a better future for him, not just because of the people who love him, but because <i>he</i> is willing to fight for it. <br /><br /><i>Your Love is Mine</i> is fantastic beginning in the Maine Sullivans branch. I can't wait to know more about Cassie's siblings; hopefully, more of Cassie, Flynn &amp; Ruby (<i>pretty, pretty please</i>) and perhaps some extra information related to The San Francisco, Seattle &amp; New York Sullivans? After all, ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE, right?

This time we are in Maine and I have to say that I really enjoy how all the books blend in together but still manage to be enjoyed on their own as well.<br><br>YOUR LOVE IS MINE is all about Cassie Sullivan and Flynn Stewart. Cassie is one of seven siblings in Bar Harbor, Maine so I’m sure as the series goes on that we will see much more of the others in the series. But let’s get back to Cassie… I really enjoyed her character. She was refreshingly sweet and I loved how chatty she got whenever she was nervous. It was very endearing and I feel like one of the big reasons why I keep returning to these books is because the heroines are often very sweet and charming. Cassie definitely fits that mold.<br><br>Then there’s Flynn who is an award-winning screenwriter. He’s the big shot of the book and gets lots of media attention because of his work and dating life. However, once in Bar Harbor, we see a much more down-to-earth side to him that I much preferred. I thought that his backstory and how Ruby came into his life was a little too much at some points, but I’m glad that the author didn’t make it such a huge part of this book. Otherwise, I think it would have taken away from the small-town romance feel that a series set in Bar Harbor should have.<br><br>That being said, I thoroughly enjoyed YOUR LOVE IS MINE and I’m already looking forward to the next book in the series!

Your Love Is Mine (Maine Sullivans #1) by Bella Andre  <br /> <br />I've read many books. Adored a great deal of characters. Discovered a number of new authors and enjoyed a great many tales, but no matter how far I roam, Bella Andre and her Sullivan series is never far from my heart. The Sullivans are the epitome of what a family should be. They live their best life because they know, they have love guiding the way. Your Love is Mine is the latest in a long line of captivating, heartbreaking and always inspirational reads. So happy to see that Cassie finally gets her story and what a beautifully, enchanting journey it is. Flynn should be enjoying the good life, but old heartaches continue to dog his present. When past and present collide with a broken heart, his precious Ruby paves his way home. From that first hello to the last goodbye, Andre makes every second count. I LOVE THAT!

I still enjoy the Sullivan series by Bella Andre (even though we are on the 4th? group of siblings in the extended family), but I do have to admit that some of the excitement of the series is starting to fade for me. <br />Cassie and Flynn are entertaining characters, but what we see of them is fairly superficial. They have a strong connection from the very beginning, and it was sweet to see them get to know each other. I also enjoyed getting to meet some of Cassie's extended family. <br />My complaint - if you can call it that - is that this series seems to be getting a bit formulaic. There is no true conflict around Flynn and Cassie's relationship, even though there are plenty of options to choose from - and options that would not have changed the ending, but I think would have been more authentic to the human experience.<br />My other issue was the character of Ruby, Flynn's 6 month old niece/adopted daughter. As I went through the story, I struggled with Ruby being given abilities and personality traits most 6 month olds just don't have. In the grand scheme, it's probably a small thing, but it pull me from the story. I am curious about Cassie's siblings and what might be in store for them, but I would love it if Ms Andre would return to the more dynamic style of book represented by the early Sullivan stories.

<strong>Disappointing</strong><br /><br /><br />I have read, and mostly enjoyed, all the other Sullivan books. This one, however, fell flat for me. The heroine was over the top chipper and cheerful, the baby ate and did things way too advanced for her story age, and the dude's back story just left me saying "meh". I<br /><br />Just skimmed it from about the 40% point. Bored stiff

This story is a great intro to the Maine Sullivans.<br /><br />I love the interaction between Flynn and Cassie. Such a great story between them of getting over a troubled past.<br /><br />Loved it and can't wait to see the rest of the Sullivans!
