Bella Andre surprises readers with a novella in the Sullivans series that features a couple that we have already seen before. If you’re a fan of the series, then you may be familiar with Lori and Grayson who already had their happily ever after. However, in this novella, we get more of their story told in this update of sorts as they deal with babies and a chance to relax and enjoy each other’s company.

It’s really been so long since I read the original book, so I felt like I was returning to a world that I missed dearly. Seeing those familiar personalities come forward again was a nice treat, but I do think that it would have been nice to have the story a little bit longer. I’m not sure if Andre plans on continuing this trend with her other past couples, but having them placed together in an anthology might be something nice to try. That way, readers will feel more satisfied and we can get more updates on the characters we love.

Nevertheless, I loved this little throwback and hope that more stories like this are on the way.

Falling in Love All Over Again was a sweet, sexy, and charming story. That had me completely hooked from start to finish and made me change my opinion of Lori. Who I wasn't really a fan of when I read her and Grayson's story originally. But I honestly really enjoyed revisiting them as they prepare to become parents. As well as catching up with the Sullivan's and being introduced to some new ones whose own stories will be told next year.

And anyone who is a fan of the series and the author is sure to enjoy this story too.

Heartwarming, sweet, amusing … just a few words that describe Falling In Love All Over Again. The Sullivans are all back together gathering around Lori and Grayson for a baby shower that has so much love, that you couldn't help but smile.

I am going to assume that you've read Always On My Mind (if you haven't, you don't know what you are missing) to understand Lori and Grayson. But, if you didn't (soooo your loss) you can read this as a standalone but I don't know why you would want to … it's the incomparable Bella Andre – the Queen of romance. Naughty and Nice back together again … a husband that can't help but worry about his wife even if she says everything is ok … a babymoon … you really can't help yourself from falling in love all over again with Lori and Grayson.

But, this is nothing new from Bella Andre. She has a way of making you fall in love, whether it be again or for the first time, with the characters that she develops. She has a way of bringing their emotions to the forefront and making you laugh one minute only to be crying the next. She fills your heart with love and laughter and then melts it with the romance and love that oozes off the pages of her books. But, the ending to Falling In Love All Over Again was definitely a “get your box of tissues” moment and I couldn't have be happier or smiling bigger through all the sloppy happy tears that I shed.

Do yourself a favor or give yourself the best Christmas present ever and pick up Falling In Love All Over Again or, for that matter, just pick up a book by Bella Andre and you'll see exactly what I am talking about.

It was so great to catch up with Lori and Grayson again! The fears he had just ran off the pages into my soul! Having a baby is always a scary and exciting time! But for Grayson he had just a little extra anxiety! The Sullivan's are always an awesome read! If you loved Lori and Grayson you need to catch up with them again!

This one was short but sweet. I liked how Lori was able to embrace her time being pregnant and help Grayson come to terms with the fear he had been living with. The trip away helped, as did the activities that Lori came up with. I wasn’t surprised when the baby came early, nor with Grayson’s initial reaction, but he stepped up quickly and took control when Lori needed him to be strong. The baby’s name was perfect, a great way to honor a special person.

I loved watching Lori and Grayson fall in love the first time, and have to say getting to spend time with them in Falling in Love All Over Again only made me love them even more as a couple.

I love how Lori and Grayson are pretty much opposites in almost every way possible, yet are absolutely perfect together as a couple. I honestly think their differences is what really makes them work so well as a couple. You can feel how much they love each other as you read each word of this story. I loved so much about this story, but have to say one of the sweetest things was Grayson, his mom and Lori's mom Mary arranging a babymoon for Lori and Grayson before their baby was born. It was so sweet to give them a getaway just the two of them before they became a family of three.

Falling in Love All Over Again pulled all the emotions from me. I found myself laughing, smiling, and even crying a few happy tears along the way. I love each installment in the Sullivan series of books, but have to say the San Francisco Sullivans have an extra special place in my heart. I absolutely love getting to spend more time with them. Falling in Love All Over Again was such a wonderful novella and I loved it so much, and have to say I had all the happy tears flowing at the end of the story. Ms. Andre once again delivers an amazing and emotional story for her readers and I highly recommend this book to anyone who loves contemporary romances.

I voluntarily offered to review this book with no obligations and my opinions are honest!
It was a great book!
Lori is still loving her HEA.
Now, it is time for the next big step of her life.
How will Lori + Grayson prepare for this big step?
It super nice to reconnect with the Sullivan clan.
You will have to read the book to find out what is the surprise at the end of the book.
It has all the ingredients that you need for a great book!
I hope that there are more Sullivan novellas coming out way.
There are so many other couples that I would like to get a glimpse of how are they living their lives now.

Falling in Love All Over Again (The Sullivans Novella) by Bella Andre  
 
I adore the Sullivans. They love hard, laugh uproariously and live in the moment. So when I found out that Bella Andre was revisiting two of my favorite characters, I couldn't wait. Lori and Grayson are a mismatch made in heaven. He's cautious, she's adventurous, yet they work. Heartache brought them together to bring out the best in each other. Falling in Love All Over Again is a reminder of how perfect they are for each other. Life is not about the challenges we face, but the memories we make.  With love and laughter this duo faces life at full steam.

Lori and Grayson is one of my favorite Sullivan’s. This short novella continues their story as Lori is now 8 months pregnant. Welcome a new baby girl to the Sullivan (Tyler) clan. We get short updates from the others as they attend the baby shower.

Wow! I totally loved this novella and devoured it in hours. Loved getting updates on most of the Sullivans. Loved feeling the love between Lori and her husband Grayson. What a great idea, to have a baby-moon ( similar to honeymoon). But plans don’t always go as planned. Lori loves being pregnant, but is Grayson over his past? I had some happy tears when they finally decide on their daughter’s name. I voluntarily read an advanced readers copy and I highly recommend this book.

Let me be upfront with you my fellow readers. The Sullivans of San Francisco series was my first and to date only exposure to best selling romance author Bella Andre. While I liked the series well enough to read all the books on the San Francisco Sullivans, and pre-order this novella, Falling in Love All Over Again, I wasn’t so enchanted by it that I was tempted to follow-up by reading all her connected Sullivan series, The Sullivans of Seattle, the Sullivans of N.Y. etc. etc. etc. Truth be told by the time this book was released into my Kindle library I hadn’t given the series a whole lot of second thoughts as I wandered through the wide world of modern romance authors reading at a voracious clip. Also, being a full blooded hetero-sexual male who seems to have developed an addiction to this genre over the past few years now, which I know makes me an anomaly, I’m always far more taken with the heroines than the heroes in these stories. So twin sisters Sophie and Lori were my favorite members of the Sullivan clan. This story focuses on Lori the professional dancer/choreographer and her stockbroker turned farmer husband Grayson. Maybe it was because the Sullivans were such a bunch of overachievers, an academy award winning actor, a Cy Young award winning baseball pitcher, millionaire auto repair shop chain owner, world famous photogropher etc., that as much as I liked the characters they just weren’t everyday blue collar enough for me to relate to?
As a fan of romance series over just stand-alone books and also a reader who often gets so wrapped up in the characters that he often has to remind himself that they are just fictional characters in a book, not real people, it’s always brings me a special pleasure when the author gives me a peak into the future lives of said characters and the H.E.A. they are living. So I found the first few chapters of this story equal parts enjoyable and slightly grating. On one hand it was good to learn about Lori and her siblings, whether they got married or were still just shacking up and who had kids, how many, what sex etc. On the other these chapters sort of felt like a promo to entice readers to buy the books in the series as much as a gift to existing fans of the series, as it seems just about every character in the very large Sullivan family tree from every branch was mentioned (even those who couldn't attend the shower) along with a brief backstory on them.
In this book we have 8 ½ months pregnant with her first child Lori and her husband Grayson attending her baby shower at her mom Mary’s home. Of course all her siblings are there as well as many cousins found in the aforementioned series. Lori’s pregnancy hormones are apparently in overdrive as she can’t seem to get enough sex. She and Grayson do the deed four times just in that day (including a quickie in her childhood bedroom just before her guests arrive)which would be impressive even for a woman who didn’t feel like she was carrying a large watermelon in her abdomen. Ms. Andrew sort of rushed through the whole baby shower after her brief bios on all the guests, from Lori and Grayson quickie to a chat with her female cousins about pregnancy hormones and sex drive to the showers wrapping up, so quickly it nearly gave me whiplash. And I have to say big overprotective brother Smith being slightly peeved with Grayson for what he's done to his baby sister IMHO seemed ridiculous. I mean she's a married 28 year old woman. Come on Bella we all come to accept at some point our sisters, our parents and even our are are sexual beings. We spend much of the novella with the author reintroducing us to or regaling us with the wonder that is Lori, that wonderfully high spirited, headstrong force of nature that she is. The angst in the story comes from the fact that Grayson, although he’s tried to keep it from Lori is consumed with worry over hers and their expectant child’s health and future which seems to be multiplying the closer she gets to her due date, and Lori’s attempts to assuage his concerns. Somehow it's all died into his pain and guilt over his first wife's death although to me that felt like a stretch too. The story is very low on the drama level and full of feel goods so if you’re looking to catch up with the Sullivans of San Francisco and want a quick mostly joyful read, I think you’ll enjoy this novella.

It's time to go back where everything started with The Sullivans, well... kind of, because this is not about Chase & Chloe (the Sullivans first couple ever! The couple who started the series), but it's about one of Chase's youngest sisters, Lori Naughty Sullivan-Tyler.

If you have followed this series from the beginning, you already know Lori. If not, her story and journey to getting her HEA with Grayson takes place in Always On My Mind, and you should definitely check it out.

Anyway, we found out Lori and Grayson were expecting a baby in Every Beat of My Heart, the novella where her brothers Zach & Ryan get married to Heather & Vicki. (Oh yes, I've read every book in this series, haha.)

Falling in Love All Over Again gives us a glimpse into the final days of Lori's pregnancy and it is beautiful to see how happy she and Grayson still are. The novella also gives a glimpse into other Sullivans. Seriously, I couldn't stop squealing when I saw every San Francisco & Seattle Sullivan woman make an appearance. I've missed them so much!

My only complaint is that I wish there could've been glimpses of Lori's brothers, other than Smith's. I love Smith but he has been mentioned (and has appeared) in many other Sullivans books (outside of the SF ones), whereas we haven't gotten much information about Chase, Marcus, GABE! Zach, Ryan, Rafe or Adam, and honestly, I miss them! And I wish I could've seen more of them, especially since Lori is their sister/cousin.

Nevertheless, I did enjoy the novella. If Lori & Grayson are your favorite Sullivan couple, you won't find anything to complain about while reading their story. You will definitely fall in love with them all over again.

It was so FREAKING AWESOME catching up with the Lori and Grayson, and to top it off…. a baby book too!!! My favorite type of catch up book. I really LOVE when an author gives us a look into the lives of past storylines.
Oh, but where to start this review. Do I start it off with Grayson and his insecurities about… No, I know, I will start with the love Lori and Grayson share, and the fact that Lori knows that Grayson is going to be such a great dad… Or should I start with what Lori’s mother….? Sorry ladies, yes, I could go into all those things and many, many more, but sorry/not sorry, I refuse to give those kinds of spoilers away. What fun would it be to know what is going to happen before you read this phenomenal book?
So, I am going to tell you why I loved this book, and every other book I have read by the spectacular Bella Andre. She writes emotions into her stories, and always the full spectrum of emotions. There were so many times in this story, I laughed, and I cried (I just wanted to give Grayson a big, huge hug when he started….) Dang!! I said no spoilers. Ms. Andre’s characters, ALWAYS well developed, to the point you can reach out and practically touch them as you are reading her stories. Like when Lori was holding the puppy during the pet adoption and…. NO SPOILERS!!! I will say this…. Lori Sullivan-Tyler is one smart cookie.
Thank you, Ms. Andre, for sharing your phenomenal talents with your readers.
Thank you for reading my review and being able to give you some of insights on why I loved this book so much. I know you will not be disappointed when you buy this book.

I was really excited to receive an ARC of this book because that means I get to go back to my beloved OG Sullivans!

Grayson and Lori (Sullivan) Tyler are awaiting the birth of their baby and during the baby shower where everyone in the Sullivan world shows up, Grayson, Grayson’s mom, and Lori’s mom Mary surprise her with a babymoon.

Everything seems to be going so well but underneath all the excitement and happiness, Grayson is still plagued by his past and is trying very hard to keep it from Lori who is just glowing with her joy and eagerness to meet their baby. Will Grayson be able to get past his fears and open up to Lori? Will Lori be able to once again help Grayson move forward?

Reading Falling In Love All Over Again is like a homecoming. The story is back in San Francisco and Mary Sullivan and her brood are once again front and center. This family was what made me a Bella Andre fan and I am so glad she gave us this novella.

Lori is as feisty as ever and Grayson is still hot, brooding, loving, and sexy, and with a baby on the way, they are more lovable together more than ever. The story is funny, sexy, and very sweet. An easy read and very entertaining. No wasted words. And that bit at the end? Brought me to tears. Such a loving gesture!

Fans of the Sullivan series will definitely love this book and I am looking forward to the next one! Keep ‘em coming Bella!

Lori and Grayson are spending time together before the birth of their first child. Grayson has been super protective of Lori the whole pregnancy, given his past no one is surprised by this but could it be more than that?

Lori is still trouble, living up to her childhood nickname. She is cruising through this pregnancy with ease. She knows Grayson is being extra cautious with her but lately she thinks there is more going on with him. Will he open up to her?

Lori and Grayson head out on a babymoon before the baby comes. They try to get back in touch with the pre-pregnancy selves and just relax and enjoy. Talking through things Lori realizes that Grayson is having more of a problem just relaxing and enjoying the pregnancy. Together on the beach they give each other a long pep talk just as Lori realizes she is in active labor.

Lori and Grayson head to the hospital in just enough time to welcome either baby girl. Never agreeing on a name until the moment of birth, they honor her with the most special name they can think of.

I always love catching up with the Sullivans and there are plenty of cameos from the baby shower but also mentioning cousins all over the country. 4 stars for this Sullivan novella. I received an advance copy without expectation for review, any and all opinions expressed are my own.

I am voluntarily reviewing an advanced reader copy of this book, Falling In Love All Over Again by Bella Andre.

I fell in love with Lori and Grayson in Always On My Mind (Sullivan’s book 8) and as the title says, I fell in love all over again.
Lori’s nickname is “Naughty” for a reason. She earned that name as a child and it’s been perfect for her well in to adulthood. She keeps Grayson on his toes, but he has no problem keeping up with her.
Now they have a new adventure to look forward to. Lori is pregnant! But even though they are thrilled with the impending birth of their child, Grayson has some past demons that are plaguing his present and overshadowing his joy of becoming a parent with Lori. Good thing he has a loving wife and family that love and support him no matter what.
I love getting to spend time with “my” beloved Sullivans! They are an ideal example of a close knit, loving, loyal family. They are always there for each other!
Bella Andre is one of my all time favorite authors for a very good reason! Her stories are breathtakingly beautiful! Perfectly written to draw you in and keep you entertained and begging for more all the way up to THE END. And her books are like potato chips and cats, you can’t have just one. You read one, get hooked and gotta read them all!

I read romances because my authors guarantee me a HEA. And, although I miss the characters after I turn the final page, I don’t often think about what’s next for them.

That’s why I loved Bella Andre’s FALLING IN LOVE ALL OVER AGAIN, which checks back in with Lori Sullivan and Grayson Tyler, who fell in love in ALWAYS ON MY MIND (The Sullivans, Book 8). Unlike a long epilogue to bring us up to date, however, author Andre gives us a novella with a bit of drama — as well as her trademark wit and deep feels.

With the birth of their daughter imminent, Grayson can’t shake his tragic past that causes him to worry that something will go horribly wrong. Lori, just as she did when they were falling in love, wants to help Grayson through the darkness to the light on the other side.

Along the way, Andre treats us to updates on our other favorite Sullivans (who travel to San Francisco from across the U.S. to attend a baby shower) and shares with us what a “babymoon” is. Who knew? Certainly not my generation!

FALLING IN LOVE ALL OVER AGAIN is a delightful quick read that will delight longtime Sullivan fans as well as those new to the series. If you are new, you’ll finish this book and start ordering the backlist!

You know how on CW there’s Arrow-Verse and then there’s Marvel’s Universe??? Well, as I was reading Falling In Love All Over Again: The Sullivans Babymoon Novella, I couldn’t help but wonder why Hallmark Channel hasn’t created the Sullivan Universe because this whole family is amazing. It was like reading about a family reunion that you actually wanted to be at and would absolutely enjoy!

Falling In Love All Over Again is a quick read about Lori ‘Naughty’ Sullivan and her hunky and slightly overprotective cowboy hubby, Grayson. This novella gave us a wonderful and a little bit steamy look into their lives now as Lori is preganant with her first child. And as a happy bonus, of course, we get to spend time with a lot of the Sullivan family and get to catch up with them too.

I’ve been reading the Sullivans for years now and I never tire of seeing them and spending time with them. I feel completely invested in this family and just keep getting excited to read more. Bella Andre never fails to make me smile and just leave me feeling happy.

Falling In Love Again is another wonderful read by Bella Andre!

I received an Advanced Reader Copy of this novel. I am voluntarily and freely providing an honest review.

Lori and Grayson's love story is so beautiful and warm with a "babymoon" full of hot sizzling love. It starts with a baby shower and gets bigger and happier from there.
I absolutely adore it when all the Sullivan siblings and cousins can get together and I adore their mom, Mary Sullivan. As always, there is humor, adventure and memory making abounds. I had never heard of a babymoon before reading this story but I am now going to make sure all my expecting friends know to take advantage if at all possible.
Grayson's past and worries about the pregnancy and the future begin to plague him as the pregnancy grows. Lori becomes aware of the possibility when she visits with her mother at the baby shower. In the end, both Lori and the new addition to the family help him to move forward again and realize his HEA is happening. The ending was so heartwarming. I love these novellas of "where are they now" and I want one for each member of the family. I received an advance reader copy of this book and I am giving an honest review. I love ending a book with tears in my eyes and a big smile on my face!

I loved revisiting Grayson and Lori. It brought me back to the days when Grayson was doing everything in his power to stay in that dark place after his first wife passed away but Lori would not let him. She is always the shining star. I love how they went on a Babymoon and little Mary decided to make her entrance a wee bit early. The love that the Sullivan family shows for one another makes you all warm and gooey inside. Lori's mom always seems to be able to read those around her. She knew Grayson was a nervous wreck but she seemed to be a calming factor in his life. Lori who was just a ball of energy (with a high libido to boot) realized that Grayson was trying to prevent him from entering that dark time of his life and learn how to live life to the fullest and be resilient. Once again Bella had me laughing, crying and sighing all within a page of reading. Can't wait to read more of the extended Sullivan family.

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE... You'll love Falling in Love All Over Again. And like me, you will say love a bunch of times.

I absolutely loved this novella about Lori & Grayson. They are such a perfect couple. I love how she has helped him heal and he just goes with her crazy self. I love that Bella was able to give us the rest of the story of how their life has been after their surprised wedding. I love that Lori celebrates everything in life. I also loved how their daughter came into the world on her own terms. She is definitely going to be like her mother; strong, resilient, and beautiful. I love how Grayson just dotes on his wife and daughter. I can't wait to see what their life will be after this chapter of their lives. I absolutely love their daughter's name and of course, their families love and support. What a great read. Another homerun for Bella Andrea. This book was all about getting over fears and still loving each other. About support and love.

What a beautiful way to catch up with Lori and Grayson. I had not read their love story receiving my ARC of Falling In Love All Over Again so I just had to read it first. Their love story is just as beautiful as this novella. I love big family series like the Sullivans. Wow, this is a big family who love coming together for any and all kinds of celebrations. This story focuses on Lori and Grayson within weeks of the arrival of their first child, a daughter. The demons of Grayson losing his wife in a car accident and subsequent guilt are returning. Will Grayson find a way to settle those demons before the birth of his daughter? Will Lori’s unconditional and resilient love for Grayson help him find peace? No spoilers here, you will have to read Falling Love All Over Again by Bella Andre. I have not met a Sullivan I did not love. A sweet addition and great way to catch up with the whole family. I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review. 5 stars*****

I loved this novella and it is always so much fun to catch up with this wonderful family of eight that just keeps expanding as husband and wives add grandchildren to the mix. We also go a taste of the Maine Sullivans.

This novella focused on Lori and Grayson as they are about to have a baby. Grayson's traumatic past comes to haunt him more and more as the due date gets closer and Lori doesn't realize how far the dark has bubbled up to take hold of Grayson.

This was a fun and quick read and nothing Lori does is on a small scale. The ending is sweet and very touching.

I can't wait to read more about the Sullivans and hope that more novellas about them are forthcoming. It really is like catching up with old friends. Wanting to know who is having babies and what is next on the horizon for a family full of talented people. It has been so much fun getting to know this huge family that it never gets old!

Falling In Love All Over Again
Bella Andre
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I cannot for the life of me remember reading Lori and Grayson’s love story, but within a few short sentences I fell in love with them, all over again, as their story came back to me.

I knew that Lori was always the naughty twin, and I loved her humour, love, and quick wit, so this story was perfect for her. After their crazy love story, with plenty of drama, Grayson and Lori are happier than ever, and about to welcome a precious little girl to the Sullivan Family craziness.

At their loud and proud baby shower, they are gifted a babymoon, their last holiday before crazy days begin, but hot headed, Lori is prepared and more than ready, but a couple of sexy days with her husband is just want the doctor ordered. Plenty of steam, heated the pages of this super quick read, leaving me very loved up with the Sullivans again. ♥️

On the cusp of becoming parents, Lori and Grayson have a chance for a Babymoon getaway to enjoy some time to themselves before their little one is born. There are sexy times, there are sweet times and there are unexpected surprises for our happy couple. Andre brings back many of our favorite Sullivans in this short story which is sure to please.

Grayson and Lori are a loving couple. Lori is pregnant and very excited to expand her family. Grayson also excited but has some past issues that are haunting him. He tries to be supportive and hide his troubling thoughts. Lori is so exciting about the baby and the changes she is experiencing that she missed Grayson's troubling issues. Can Grayson overcome these issues before the baby arrives? They are enjoying their babymoon before the baby comes. Lori falls in love with a puppy and wants to adopt one. Grayson feels overwhelmed with the baby coming, can he handle a puppy too? This book is a wonderful Sullivan novella! I received an advanced copy of this book with no requirements. This is my honest review!

When you love a fictional family as much as the Sullivan clan, of course you cannot wait to catch up on their lives. Lori “Naughty” Sullivan and her husband Grayson are a perfect example of opposites attract. They are so perfect for one another that you almost forget the struggles Grayson has had. When Lori’s dream to start her family starts to come true, she almost forgets that herself. The fear Grayson has of his past repeating itself almost steals the hit he should be feeling. But in typical “Naughty” fashion, she reminds Grayson that their steadfastness will conquer all. I shed a few tears of worry as well as joy with this one! Another amazing story Bella! Thank you for sharing them with us.
