Ruby Spencer's Whisky Year by Rochelle Bilow
4.0

Such a sweet and swoony romance set in Scotland. Ruby packs up her life in Manhattan and moves to a cozy cottage in a charming small town in Scotland. The town is welcoming and quaint. Ruby is immediately charmed by the town and its quirky residence. Brochan the local handyman is grumpy, Scottish, and hot. Ruby and Brochan have an instant spark that they do not act on immediately. I would not classify this as friends to lovers or enemies to lovers, but as two People meeting one another and having a romantic connection. Not certain if that's a trope or not? I found the setting of the story absolutely delightful, made me want to pack my bags and head to Scotland. Ruby and Brochan were both likable characters and I really loved them together. there were a few things these characters kept from one another that drove me crazy and I never completely understood why? Nikki Massoud did an amazing job with the audiobook narration. Her male Scottish accent voice was perfection. I truly think her narration added another layer to this sweet story. If you're in the mood for an adorable romance with a charming setting, this is the book! And just a heads up there is steam. Not a lot, but it is open door.
