About this book
Taran vows never to return to her childhood home in the Scottish Isles, desperate to avoid the man who shattered her heart eighteen years ago. But when family obligations force her back, she finds herself face-to-face with Quinn McQuarrie—the local contractor, a devoted single dad, and the very man she once loved. While the town is eager to see Quinn find his happily ever after, Taran is determined to keep her distance and move on, despite the undeniable, lingering spark between them. The tension reaches a breaking point when Taran takes on a project to save the local lifeboat service and realizes she must work alongside Quinn to succeed. As they navigate their shared professional goals, the chemistry that once defined their youth grows more intense, forcing Taran to confront the deep-seated pain and distrust that still clouds their history. Just as their connection begins to thaw, a series of disturbing threats and harassment turn their lives upside down. Quinn steps up as a steadfast protector, determined to shield Taran from danger. In this emotionally charged second-chance romance, the two must decide if they can overcome their past wounds before an external threat destroys their final opportunity for a future together.

Image 88: A 1x1 image, likely be a tacker probe Amazon Customer](javascript:void(0)) 5 out of 5 stars A perfect second-chance romance. I felt it all! Drifting Dawn was an exciting, all-consuming read, and by the end, my heart was exploding! I love it when I immediately feel lost in a story, a part of the world, caught up in the characters’ lives and feelings. That is exactly what happened with this, I felt it all! I loved the rich details and development as everything unfolded for Quinn and Taran, it had me in a chokehold. There was tension and drama, the perfect amount of suspense, plus an incredible slow burn with an edge of angst. This made for a perfect second-chance romance! I felt so much for Quinn and Taran as their history was learned. I liked how it was set up with flashbacks to their past. I was filled with anticipation to hear all the details that caused their time apart. It was emotional, painful, raw, and real. I understood their hurt and why Taran had such high walls up. I loved her defenses coming down one by one, and how she opened her heart, and how Quinn worked to get in there. I loved the healing, vulnerability, forgiveness, and growth as they came together. I adored their simmering chemistry. The slow burn between them was worth the wait because holy goodness, it hit at just the right time. It was passionate and hot and sweet and beautiful all rolled into one. The suspense element was fantastic. I loved the drama it created, and I was excited for it all to play out. By the end, I was on the edge of my seat. There was a wonderful cast of characters. I adored Quinn’s kids and how they were woven into everything. I loved seeing Tierney and Ramsay again, along with their friends, and I can’t wait for what’s ahead with London and Murray and Cammie and Forde. I loved the different friendships, especially between Quinn and Ramsay. There were so many fun, sweet moments, and it all came together perfectly. I swear every book I read by Samantha Young is a new favorite, and this one was no different. This was an exceptional story and a great addition to the Scottish Isles series that’s not to be missed. It made for a truly amazing happily ever after! Complimentary copy received.

Quinn is now a single dad, the local contractor, and the person the entire town is rooting for to get his happily ever after. The problem is, he wants me to be his HEA, and I just want to move on.
