Release Day Review: Here With Me (The Adair Family Series Book #1) by Samantha Young

 

 

Here With Me by Samantha Young is now live!

 Settled in the tranquil remoteness of the Scottish Highlands, Ardnoch Estate caters to the rich and famous. It is as unattainable and as mysterious as its owner --ex-Hollywood leading man Lachlan Adair--and it's poised on the edge of a dark scandal.

After narrowly escaping death, police officer Robyn Penhaligon leaves behind her life in Boston in search of some answers. Starting with Mac Galbraith, the Scottish father who abandoned her to pursue his career in private security. To re-connect with Mac, Robyn will finally meet a man she's long resented. Lachlan Adair. 

Hostility instantly brews between Robyn and Lachlan. She thinks the head of the Adair family is high-handed and self-important. And finding closure with Mac is proving more difficult than she ever imagined. Robyn would sooner leave Ardnoch, but when she discovers Mac is embroiled in a threat against the Adairs and the exclusive members of the estate, she finds she's not yet ready to give up on her father.

Determined to ensure Mac's safety, Robyn investigates the disturbing crimes at Ardnoch, forcing her and Lachlan to spend time together. Soon it becomes clear a searing attraction exists beneath their animosity, and temptation leads them down a perilous path.

While they discover they are connected by something far more addictive than passion, Lachlan cannot let go of his grip on a painful past: a past that will destroy his future ... if the insidious presence of an enemy lurking in the shadows of Ardnoch doesn't do the job first.

What I thought about Here With Me

The minute I started this book I knew I was done for -- I was immediately pulled into the story and didn't want to let it go until I found out all the secrets held within it's pages.  I love books like this, where getting involved in the story happens right from the start and I find myself staying up late (or sometimes all night) to find out what's going to happen.

Here with Me starts out with a bang, with police officer Robyn Penhaligon (omg, that name just slips off the tongue in such a nice way!) involved in a terrible life-changing situation.  A year later, she's no longer a cop, and she's in Scotland looking up her long lost father Mac Galbraith.

Mac is the head of security for an estate that caters to the rich and famous, and is owned by Lachlan Adair.  Lachlan is a bit secretive and is suspicious of Robyn at first. There's a problem at the estate that requires some investigation and circumstances necessitate Robyn's involvement, bringing Lachlan and Robyn in close contact. 

As the investigation progresses, Robyn and Lachlan's relationship grows and changes into something else, something romantic, and I loved how things progressed for them. There's no insta-love here, and the writing is terrific.  I really enjoyed everything about this book and would definitely recommend it to romance and suspense readers who are looking for an engaging story taking place in Scotland.  Of course the location is just another "character" if you will in this story, and that was also another selling point in its favor.  I just loved everything about this and I'm looking forward to the second book in this two book series now.
