4.4

Seeking answers after a brush with death, Boston police officer Robyn Penhaligon travels to the rugged Scottish Highlands to confront the father who abandoned her. Her arrival at the exclusive Ardnoch estate brings her face-to-face with the man she has long resented: the formidable and self-important Lachlan Adair. Their initial meeting is defined by immediate, crackling hostility, as Robyn finds herself clashing with the head of the Adair family at every turn. However, the friction between them shifts when Robyn discovers her father is caught in the middle of a sinister threat looming over the estate. Forced into an uneasy alliance to investigate the disturbing crimes plaguing Ardnoch, Robyn and Lachlan find their mutual animosity giving way to an undeniable, searing attraction. Featuring an intense enemies-to-lovers dynamic, this romantic suspense novel weaves a complex tale of family secrets and dangerous shadows. As they navigate a perilous investigation, they are drawn into a connection far more addictive than mere passion. Yet, Lachlan remains haunted by a painful past that threatens to destroy his future—provided they can survive the unseen enemy lurking in the dark corners of the Highlands.

Romance suspense perfection!

Image 100: A 1x1 image, likely be a tacker probe Amazon Customer](javascript:void(0)) 5 out of 5 stars Romance suspense perfection! This book was the perfect blend of romance and suspense. I swooned, I sat on the edge of my seat, and I even played detective. Absolutely fabulous from start to finish. The Story: Robyn, a Boston cop, decides it’s time to hang up her badge after nearly losing her life for her partner and best friend. Ready to confront her past, she heads to Scotland to reconnect with her estranged father. But her dad, Mac, hasn’t been living a quiet life he’s spent years working security for actor Lachlan Adair, who now runs an exclusive celebrity retreat in the Highlands. To Robyn, Lachlan is the man who stole her father away. But when Mac is brutally attacked, Robyn steps in to uncover the truth. All the while, sparks ignite between her and Lachlan. Their connection is undeniable… but forbidden. He’s her father’s best friend, and risking that bond could ruin everything. Still, when they finally give in? 🔥🫠 Why I Loved It: The banter was chef’s kiss—especially with the Scottish dialogue woven in. Robyn’s emotional journey as she rebuilt her relationship with her dad was heartfelt and touching. 🥹 Despite being a little longer than a standard romance, I never felt bored. The pacing, the world-building, and the introduction of the entire Adair family had me hooked and excited for more books in the series. Tropes You’ll Find: ✨ Age Gap (10 years) ✨ Forbidden Romance ✨ Enemies to Lovers ✨ Romantic Suspense ✨ Dad’s Best Friend 🤭 This book delivered everything: the swoon, the angst, the tension, and the suspense. If you love romance with heart, heat, and a dash of danger, this one is a must-read!

Starting with Mac Galbraith, the Scottish father who abandoned her to pursue his career in private security. To reconnect 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.
