A Scottish Lord For Christmas was an enjoyable quick read but it was too contradictory which took away from my overall enjoyment of the book.

*I received a copy from the author in exchange for my honest review
This is my favorite in this series! I could not put it down and flew through it. It's one of those magical Christmas love stories that has everything you want. I loved how it started with his daughter and that instant connection for her and the little girl. I was not expecting what happened in the mountains but loved it so much. The journey of him opening his heart fully will touch your heart.
Rowena is an amazing girl that loves everyone and people are drawn to her. I loved her because she didn't hide her feelings and they were clear to everyone. She never wanted to replace his first wife, she continued on feeling a space in their hearts.
Quinn clearly loved his wife with all his heart and didn't want to ever fall in love again. I loved that he didn't try to hide his emotions or feelings like many would. He fought with his heart and needed a sign that he could love fully again.

This isn’t a bad book, it just wasn’t for me. I wanted to try something different and it just wasn’t my favorite.

I think my expectations were a little too high for this book, so I was let down and wasn't that into this read. First, I love Scotland and always enjoy a good Scottish romance, but there wasn't much atmosphere in this book and it felt like it could have been taking place anywhere. Second, I don't usually gravitate towards romance where one of the couple has a child, so I knew as I started getting into this that it wasn't really for me.
Basically, the hero is a widower with a small child and is looking for a wife to help raise his child, but doesn't think he could ever love again. The heroine is only 18, which also made it difficult to relate. I know with historicals this may be okay, but the idea of an 18-year-old who just longs to be a mother isn't usually the type of romance that I enjoy. I felt like the attraction between them came out of nowhere, and once the relationship heated up a bit there were just too many tropes and I couldn't get into their story. Also, with that title and the dress on the cover, this book needed a bit more Christmas to give it a real holiday feel, in my opinion. Overall, not a bad book but just not the type of relationship I like to read about, and featured a few too many cliches for my taste.

Has every single trope I can’t stand; instalove, helpless heroine, the main story happens within not even a week, the characters are not developed at all. I tend to think Christmas novels are the worst of an author’s work but apparently I’m in the minority. Also the setting was a bit confusing, it seemed like a regency but with cars?

So much promise, so much let down. The hero had a totally unrealistic and feminine narrative voice. Instalove was on the menu from all directions. I’m sorry to say I cannot recommend.

"4 out of 5 stars! For the past year, Quinn has suffered the loss of his wife who died unexpectedly, but now for his young daughter's sake he plans to find a suitable woman to marry. Rowena is an idealistic young lady who is a romantic at heart and loves children. These two meet at a house party and soon their lives quickly change for the better .... or so Rowena believes, Quinn may come around once she helps him "see the light."
This is the first historical novel that I've read that is based in the Edwardian era, and I can definitely say that I liked it! Sassy and heartwarming, with ..."
