Slow start...wasn’t sure I would like it. It picked up and I loved it!

This was a really fast paced sweet story and I was here for it. The conflict mostly rested on miscommunication which is a pain but it didn’t ruin it for me. The mystery towards the end took me off guard but gave me Selection vibes which I was again here for.

This book takes place 20 years after An English Bride In Scotland (An English Bride In Scotland #1)and can be read as a stand-alone. And while I enjoyed this book it did lack some of Ms. Sands trademark humor. I recommend her historical novels to my friends as hysterical. This one doesn’t quite qualify as that. That being said… this is a rather sweet tale of a young woman left in dire circumstances meeting her slightly tarnished Scotts savior in a kilt. If you enjoy the occasional historical novel, as I do, then you may want to give this a quick read.

i was a little worried the "girl in pants" trope would be ick but overall i felt fine with it, as she's only masquerading as a lad for safety, and he's not weird about it when he figures it out (she got beat really badly on the road by bandits so her face is all out of sorts and he's stabbed and wounded in that fight so he really only doesn't know until he's got his brain back and see's her bathing in a waterfall hubba hubba).

That said I truly could have missed things so YMMV, but I again had a super great fun time reading this one. I love healers too!

UGH it was fine I'm reviewing this so late I barely remember it. Best part was when she was pretending to be a man and it was lightly homoerotic but alas it didn't last long.

I am really enjoying reading Lynsay Sands’s historical romance books. They’re really entertaining and fairly quick reads.

I've read a lot of bad things, and this just happens to be one of the bad things! I can't even explain how much I dislike this book.
