    About this audiobook

    The New York Times bestselling author of the On Dublin Street series and Hero returns to Scotland in this passionate and evocative romance about love, loss, and surviving both.

    Nora O’Brien chased a dream from Indiana to Scotland, so sure it was the right thing to do. Three years later she was left in her adopted country with nothing to her name but guilt and regret.

    Until Aidan Lennox entered her life.

    Older, worldlier, a music producer and composer, the sexy Scot should never have made sense for Nora. But somehow in each other they found the light they were looking for, the laughter and the passion—the strength to play on despite their past losses.

    But when life dealt Aidan another unlucky hand, instead of reaching for her he disappeared. The agonizing loss of him inspired something within Nora. It fired her spirit—the anger and hurt pushing her forward to take control and reach for her dreams.

    Finally pursuing a career on stage while she put herself through college, everything is how Nora wants it. She’s avoiding heartbreak and concentrating on her goals.

    Sounds easy, but it’s not. Because Aidan is back. And for some reason he hates Nora.

    He’s determined to be at war with her.

    And she has absolutely no idea why.

      Second chance, age gap, billionaire romance

      There was a lot going on with Nora. She has a very difficult life for such a young character. I initially struggled to get captivated by her story when she goes to start her new life in Scotland but after the first 25% I was hooked. I wanted to know how her story was carried out and where her love life ended up. I did struggle with the timing in the book because we seemed to jump from one bit to another instead of letting it flow nicely and there was a lot of going back and forth. There were some scenes that I think didn't need to be included for her character's closure as that chapter seemed to have gone into her life.

      I adored the angst and build-up between Aiden and Nora. They have an intense, slow-burn romance with lots of teasing scenes for the reader. Samantha has a beautiful way of writing a story and setting the scene in Scotland. It's whimsical and romantic. Even though this isn't my favourite book I did find it enjoyable.
