The Whispering Pages Book Blog: Release Blitz & Review Only You {Adair Family #5} by Samantha Young

Release Date: February 21, 2023
A second chance, friends to lovers romantic suspense set in the Scottish Highlands.

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 verylives.

Review

This is the 5th and final installment in the Adair Family series. Although this is part of a series I believe you can enjoy this book as a standalone as I did.

Monroe aka Roe and Broden are childhood best friends that drifted apart after university and have a lot of unresolved feelings towards one another.

18 years apart is a long time hold on to feelings especially when throughout that time you have been trying to lose yourself in multiple women to ease the loss of one…. the one.

Monroe has had a rough childhood that followed her through to adulthood. Losing Broden being at the center of her turmoil.

When they both return to their home town to refresh and reset neither one of them are ready for the feelings that seeing each other again will stir up.

Forced to deal with their past and everything that was left unsaid Broden and Monroe discover that they have wasted a lot of time. Getting back what they have lost won’t be easy but Broden is determined to right the wrongs and prove to Roe that its only ever been her.

The family dynamic of thr Adair family is warm and welcoming. Although at times I was less than pleased with Broden’s behavior towards Monroe. He redeems himself.

I will definitely be picking up a the books in this series to familiarize myself more wirh the Adair brothers. Looking forward to the release of Max & Sloane’s story coming soon.
