FROM THIS MOMENT ON from the Sullivans Series by Bella Andre
One night is all winery owner, Marcus Sullivan, and pop star, Nicola Harding, agree to share with each other. But growing emotions - and sizzling attraction - keep drawing them closer together. Close enough for them to wonder if stealing one more secret moment together can ever be enough?
LAWFUL LOVER from the Eternal Bachelors Club by Tina Folsom
After their tumultuous barely-two-week relationship, Sabrina leaves her life in San Francisco and moves in with Daniel in New York. The adjustment is difficult and made worse when an old nemesis from San Francisco causes trouble for Daniel. To further complicate their lives, Daniel's ex-girlfriend Audrey resorts to deception to make Sabrina doubt Daniel's love for her.
FOOL FOR LOVE from the McCarthys of Gansett Island Series by Marie Force
Joe Cantrell, owner of the Gansett Island Ferry Company, has been in love with Janey McCarthy for as long as he can remember. It was bad enough for Joe loving Janey from afar, but having her nurse a broken heart at his house is pure torture. Will he take advantage of this opportunity to show her what they could have together? And what will Joe's best friend and Janey's protective older brother Mac have to say about it?
SO THIS IS LOVE from the Callaway Series by Barbara Freethy
For Max Harrison, a homicide detective, love seduces and then destroys. His brother went to prison for love. His father left his family for love. Max is determined not to follow in their footsteps. Then he meets Emma Callaway, a sexy, courageous fire investigator, who turns his life upside down. As fires rage around the city, the heat between them ignites in a blaze of passion. Will it destroy them or will they finally get everything they ever wanted?
FIGHT WITH ME from the With Me in Seattle Series by Kristen Proby
Jules Montgomery won't risk her career for mind-blowing sex, no matter how much her body and heart keep arguing with her. Reformed bad-boy Nate McKenna won't be brushed aside. She can fight all she wants, but he'll have her in his bed in the end.

THANK YOU!
As I was writing KISS ME LIKE THIS, it was very exciting--and, to be perfectly honest, more than a little nail biting!--to dive into a new family with the Morrisons and the New Adult genre, as well. I want to say a huge and heartfelt thank you to everyone who has already read it over the past couple of days and sent me a note on FB/Goodreads/twitter/email to let me know how much you've loved it. I can't tell you how much it means to me to have your support as I spread my writing wings. :)
I have also been very lucky to have found the support of lovely bloggers and romance reviewers who took the time to squeeze the book into their busy reviewing schedules and I'd like to highlight those reviews over the next few days.
Lisa at A Tasty Read (Delicious Book Reviews) pretty much made my week by saying, "Bella Andre is taking the New Adult World by storm with KISS ME LIKE THIS, the first book in a new series that follows six siblings, The Morrisons. If you are a fan of the Sullivan Family, you are going to LOVE the Morrison's, especially baseball bad-boy, Sean of the dreamy green eyes. I have to say, Sean and Serena are one of my favorite NA couples to date."
