Release Blitz and Tour: Here With Me by Samantha Young

by - Tuesday, May 11, 2021

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.

I'm not going to lie, Here With Me was a really, really hard start. I found myself skimming, distracted, and turning to the last couple of chapters before I even hit 20%. I seriously contemplated a DNF. Thank god for insomnia and perseverance. It's the only reason I stuck with it. I'm so glad I did. I would have missed a town and characters I grew quite fond of. 

Here I was just slowly plugging along, thinking it's just time to put this misery to an end, then bam! Out of nowhere, I was in tears over something that happened between Mac (father) and Robyn (daughter), making me realize I was more invested in this set of characters than I realized. Mac, Robyn, Lachlan, Arro, Lucy, etc. snuck up on me. 

The chemistry I felt was lacking between the characters was finally present for me. Lachlan and Robyn had captured my attention. Granted it happened around 35% or so, but hey-- better late then never! Once I got past the issues I had with the first quarter or so of the book, it didn't take me long to adore the hell out of each individual. 

I truly can't wait for you to meet this crew, especially Robyn. Normally I would be waxing poetic about our hero, but not today. I'm totally girl crushing on our heroine. Our girl is so damn badass. She's EPIC. *wink* A breath of fresh air. No doormat here. Robyn stands toe to toe with Lachlan and gives as good as she gets. It's no wonder our hero falls head over heels for her.  

You'll love Lachlan. He could be a complete douche-canoe, at times. You'll  definitely want to smack him around some, but it won't take long for you to forgive him for his stupidity. 

I really loved our couple. It was so much fun watching these two antagonize each other. To deny, deny, deny only to find they couldn't keep their hands, lips, tongues and other body parts to themselves! Once that chemistry kicked in they were unputdownable. 

By the time I reached the end and reread those couple of chapters I'd skipped to, I appreciated them even more. I didn't want Lachlan and Robyn to end. And when I turned that last page, all I could think was I need the next book stat, just so I can get another glimpse of them.

Until then, I'll have to indulge in a reread to get my fix.

P.s. Speaking of the next books in the series--Mac and Arro. I am SOOOOO there for that! Damn, they had me as intrigued as our leading couple. I really hope they are next, but if the epilogue is anything to go by I don't think they will be.
