About this ebook

Ashley Sullivan’s whole world changed when she got pregnant at seventeen. After the father of her child ditched her and their son, she bypassed college, shelved her plans to see the world, and went straight to managing the family café in Bar Harbor, Maine. For the next eleven years, she poured her entire heart into raising her amazing son, Kevin. But when her brother invites her to the grand opening of his new hotel in Vienna, she decides it's finally time to experience a little of the adventure she still secretly longs for. She isn’t planning on doing anything crazy, of course. Especially not something as wild and reckless as ending up in bed with one of the sexiest music superstars in the world...

Nash Hardwin has been on the road full time since leaving his rough childhood behind when he was sixteen. Beloved by millions of fans around the world, he’s never had a real home and never trusted anyone enough to fall in love. Not until he meets Ashley Sullivan. After she unexpectedly steps in to help him out of a very tricky situation, he ends up having the best day of his life with her in Vienna. Ashley is sweet, beautiful and intelligent...with the biggest heart of anyone he’s ever met.

When their perfect day together inevitably turns into an even more perfect night, there’s no denying that they make incredibly beautiful music together. But is there even the slightest chance that the small-town single mom and the road warrior rock star can make things work? Or will the realities of lives that are polar opposites make it impossible to hold on to each other’s hearts?

HOLD ON TO MY HEART is part of Bella Andre's USA Today and New York Times #1 bestselling series about The Sullivans. While it can easily be read as a stand-alone story, you'll likely enjoy reading the other books too.

Ratings and reviews

The real world finds it's fairytale wrapped inside of deep disappointment and inspiring perseverance. With her Sullivan series Andre has forever changed the canvas of the way the heart reacts to romance. Hold On To My Heart feels like a picture perfect postcard looking to find it's way. Ashley and Nash surround readers with the lessons of life and the reward that love brings. Through the strength of one family and the emotional impact of their choices a new kind of story is born. One that is beautiful, bruised and full of charm.

Sullivan’s Cafe managed by Ashley and having a 11 year old son Brandon, her brother is launching a new hotel in Vienna Offers her to go to have an adventure for 48 hours Meeting a rock star, his music and him brought another world for her. Nash someone to love him, and cared about him, was unknown till Ashley Both lives have centered around giving to others, in food and music Time for them, will it go beyond the 48 hours. Beautiful story of meeting that special one. Given ARC for my voluntary review and my honest opinion

Finally I can feed my Sullivan addiction!! I feared I would have to go back and read the past Maine Sullivan books, but once I started reading it all came back. I was back in Maine with an amazing family. Bella Andre is such a talented author that it was easy to recall her characters. I might go back and read the others books because I am not ready to leave everyone behind and move on to another book. Ashley Sullivan got pregnant in high school changing her future. For the past eleven years her son has always comes first. All of her hopes and dreams have been put on hold. Her first weekend away takes her to Vienna for the opening of Brandon's newest hotel. Her weekend away will change everything. Nash Hardwin is a rockstar. He fled his home at sixteen struggling for years, making many mistakes along the way. Now he is on the straight and narrow in Vienna to preform at Brandon's latest hotel opening. He has been found out. The fans are screaming for him, disturbing those around and in the hotel. Brandon enlists his sister to help Nash escape. In heavy disguise they walk out of the hotel to explore Vienna. The disguises work. They work to well. It only takes a day to change everything. Then they say goodbye. How can a rockstar and a small town girl make it work? It won't be easy. It might be impossible. This reader enjoyed every joyful moment. This reader cried when I thought it was over. Sometimes it is the journey that makes a story. The journey was wonderful.
