I don’t know how she does it every single time. Just when I think that I’ve read my favourite book by Samantha Young and met my favourite couple, she turns up with Callie and Lewis.

Firstly, talk about an amazing start to the second generation of highland magic. We met our old favourites and got to know Lewis, Eilidh, Callie as adults, and the rest of the brood as not so little kids. The time skip was quite big and still it felt like I’ve never left Ardnoch - just the way I like it.

Lewis grew up to be an incredible man, just like his dad, and yowza, if devotion had a name, it would be his.
Callie is a fantastic example of someone who needed to find themselves, and I adored that she wasn’t perfect, and even more so that she put in the work to be better.

Now, this is a couple that had been in the making for decades, and I’ll fight anyone that says they weren’t made for each other. I cried so much while I read this book; in parts expected while some scenes took me by surprise.

It was incredible (and heartbreaking) that they grew into themselves alone and still ended up being the perfect counter pieces for one another.
Northern Twilight is by far my favourite book by Samantha Young and I can confidently say that it was my favourite book of the summer. I’m not lying, I’ve read it 3 times already. In the bus, on night shifts, in various locations at home and on a special date at the National Museum of Scotland - you’ll get it soon.


I can’t wait to get to know Eilidh and Fyfe.
And we all know Eilidh will charm the heck out of him and us!
