Second chance, age gap, billionaire romance

There was a lot going on with Nora. She has a very difficult life for such a young character. I initially struggled to get captivated by her story when she goes to start her new life in Scotland but after the first 25% I was hooked. I wanted to know how her story was carried out and where her love life ended up. I did struggle with the timing in the book because we seemed to jump from one bit to another instead of letting it flow nicely and there was a lot of going back and forth. There were some scenes that I think didn't need to be included for her character's closure as that chapter seemed to have gone into her life.

I adored the angst and build-up between Aiden and Nora. They have an intense, slow-burn romance with lots of teasing scenes for the reader. Samantha has a beautiful way of writing a story and setting the scene in Scotland. It's whimsical and romantic. Even though this isn't my favourite book I did find it enjoyable.
