A second chance, friends to lovers romantic suspense set in the Scottish Highlands.
Only You by Samantha Young is now live!
Once upon a time, Monroe Sinclair was Brodan Adair's best friend, but now he's a stranger
and one of Hollywood's leading men...
It took Monroe Sinclair eighteen years to return home to Ardnoch after a fateful night that devastated her friendship with Brodan Adair. She fled her unrequited love for him, as well as her difficult family life, and tried not to look behind her. Only a daughter's guilt could lure her back to the Highlands and the assumption that Brodan Adair rarely ever sets foot in their hometown. She can handle seeing the rest of the Adairs so long as she can avoid her ex-best friend and the only man she's ever loved.
Nothing is more important to Brodan than family, and only his demons have the power to keep him from them. For years, acting was something he was lucky enough to be good at, yet it wasn't his priority—Ardnoch and his siblings were. But when a ghost from his past returned out of the blue, Brodan tried to outrun its haunting, taking him further and further from home. When exhaustion finally forces him back to the family fold, the last thing he wants is to encounter another ghost. But that's exactly what Monroe Sinclair has been to him. When a promise to his nephew obliges Brodan to work with Monroe, it forces them to face their past. The explosive connection that has always existed between them resurrects truths long buried. Yet, just when they might be on the brink of a second chance, the ghost from Brodan's past finally catches up to him and threatens not just their happiness, but their very
lives.

Review:
Boy oh boy, did this book take me for a ride or what?! I had so many different emotions reading this story. From the very beginning, the first emotion was sadness only because this is the last book of the Adair Family series and I am going to miss it terribly. With each installment, I looked forward to what new couple I would fall in love with; what horrible event may occur that will hopefully ultimately lead the two leading characters closer together; and what the latest update is for all the others from earlier books I’ve already fallen head over heels for! After getting over that initial sadness and just diving deep into this story, I was excited. I loved the premise of Monroe and Brodan’s relationship, starting from childhood on. I love who Brodan was for Monroe as a young boy himself. I understood Monroe’s love and infatuation for the boy who cared for her in the best way she’d ever known. I loved it. Then, they started to grow up and both made choices that I didn’t love so much. After Brodan decided to come home to Ardnoch, he really ticked me off there for a while. While the other men in the Adair family series have done things that bothered me, I don’t think any of them have made me as angry as Brodan did a few times in this series. As the story continued to unfold and we learned more and more, I was able to extend a little more grace and forgiveness than I initially thought I’d be able to. Brodan definitely grew on me in this story, and by the end, he has become as beloved a character as all the other men in this series. That’s enough about Brodan for now, though. My girl crush is totally on Monroe in this story! She is such a survivor. She has gone through blow after blow and continues to fight, continues to look for the positive, continues to forgive (herself and others), continues to know her worth despite those who are supposed to love her treating her the opposite of what she deserves. Monroe’s heart seems so pure and genuine and she easily seems like the type of friend you’d be lucky to have in your life. I found myself wanting all the things, all the best for Monroe, and I love that a book and fictional characters can make me react so strongly. This truly speaks to the incredible talent of Samantha Young and her intrinsic ability to create a fictional world so easy to fall in love with. This book is just another example of that. I’m not going to go into too many more details because I want you to read it and experience it all on your own, but it’s so good. I enjoyed this book and this series so much. The setting of this series is magical. I want to tour the castle and walk on the beach with a view of the North Sea, feeling the wind blowing through my hair, sipping on a nice glass of Scotch with a picnic basket in hand. This book, this series I think, is a love letter to Scotland, to its beautiful people, to the love that is possible for us all. Thank you Ms. Young for such an incredible story, in such a magical setting. You’ve made my wanderlust heart boost Scotland to the top of my bucket list after reading this incredible series. If you haven’t taken the time to read this series yet, please do. You won’t be disappointed!
