Among the Heather by Samantha Young is now live!

He’s a disgraced actor. She’s the daughter of Hollywood royalty. Both are hiding in the Scottish Highlands, but despite their antagonistic attraction, they can’t seem to hide from each other…

North Hunter has worked hard to step out of the shadows of his orphaned upbringing into the limelight of Hollywood. He never imagined a dark moment from his childhood returning to destroy everything he’d built. Devastated, he finds comfort in the isolation of an exclusive members-only club in the Scottish Highlands, even if the club comes with a prickly estate manager who sets his blood on fire.

As the eldest daughter of a Hollywood legend, Aria Howard has learned the hard way that people will use her to get to her father. When her last relationship ended badly, Aria fled to Scotland. Running Ardnoch Estate provides distance from a life that has never fit comfortably. But when defamed Scottish actor North Hunter disrupts her sanctuary, Aria is on the defense. The cocky actor is the last thing she needs, and despite their searing attraction, Aria is determined to dislike him.

But one night of drunken forced proximity with North leads Aria to share insecurities seeded by her horrible ex. When North offers to prove her ex wrong by taking Aria to his bed for a no-strings distraction, they begin an affair neither expected. However, their fiery liaison leads to a deep emotional connection that unsettles them both, and North will have to break down more than Aria’s trust issues if they’re ever to have a future together. He’ll need to protect her from a past that just doesn’t want to stay buried… or lose something far more essential to his existence than his career.

Tracey’s Review

I absolutely fell in love with The Highlands series when Samantha Young released BEYOND THE THISTLES earlier this year, so I was highly anticipating seeing more of this beautiful place and the people that live there. AMONG THE HEATHER, the second book in the series, is just as beautiful, and the story just as magnetic, as the first, and I could not have enjoyed it more.

Let me just say that I LOVE the fact that North Hunter is a man that knows what he wants and isn’t afraid to go after it, even when what, or rather who, he wants is Aria Howard, and she’s having none of it. I also love the fact that this is not an insta-love kind of story, but that Samantha actually allows the relationship between these two to develop over time, for them to make their way from enemies to lovers in a way that makes sense.

Samantha has given us the perfect blend of romance, steam, and suspense, as well as showing the emotional growth and evolution of both Aria and North in a way that had me rooting for them from early on, and celebrating with them as they overcame those things in their pasts that had kept them from being truly free for so many years. I sped through this book, for no other reason than that I could not put it down, both because of needing to know what was around the next curve and because I needed them to get to their happy. Suffice to say that I was not disappointed, and that I cannot wait to get the next book, although I kind of want to kick a certain son of a viscount in the head. 4.5 well deserved stars for AMONG THE HEATHER. Grab your copy and enjoy! ❤️

NOTE: I’m not quite sure whose picture Sam had on her vision board when writing North, but I had no problem at all putting a face to him, and if she was thinking Jamie Dornan, too, well, it totally worked for me. 😉
