Summary
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.

Escape to Ardnoch with the aid of great narrators
It’s a welcome return to the fictional highland estate of Ardnoch for Among the Heather where film star North Hunter is hiding out from the press, watching his burgeoning career implode after a traumatic event from his youth was revealed to the world. Even though he wasn’t responsible he still felt guilt over what had happened and so had no intention of defending himself against the backlash from the public. He’s always had a bit of a thing for estate manager Aria Howard, something Aria doesn’t share. As the daughter of a famous Hollywood producer, she’s been stung by actors in the past using her to get close to her father and has vowed no more but the longer North spends at the estate the more they open up to one another. II loved this enemies to friends with benefits story especially with the hero falling first. After being orphaned at a young age and ending up in foster care, North had got in with a bad crowd before he managed to find his path but he all he really wanted was a family again. Aria’s upbringing had left her with zero confidence in her body shape and major trust issues especially when it came to actors and while North delighted in showing her just how much he loved her body, winning her trust was not so easy. Their romance played out against a plot involving stalkers both his and hers as the action took us from the beautiful highlands of Scotland to the Hollywood Hills before culminating in a touching epilogue.
As with the previous book in this series dual narration was again provided by the fabulous Shane East, one of my favourite male narrators, as the broody North Hunter with Stella Hunter voicing the part of Aria. Both performers have fantastic chemistry together making for a fantastic performance that brought these characters to life and transported this listener, in my imagination at least, to the picturesque Highlands on my daily work commute and away from the usual grim motorways and traffic jams.
