A review by nothingforpomegranted
A Scot in the Dark by Sarah MacLean

3.0

This has not been my favorite of Sarah’s books, and I think part of it is that I started reading it immediately after finishing the first one. Too much, too fast. in addition, I just don’t feel that connected to the characters in this one. I think that the plot was really clever. Lily was a different kind of heroin, and the fact that she had posed for a nude and had a former lover, was really unique, entertaining to unexpected, especially the revelation that he worked as an informal sex worker, in addition to his disdain for the aristocracy throughout the novel. what I was less impressed via was their chemistry. Don’t think that it seem that into each other and I’m always skeptical of the super brief timelines and romance novels, but this just seemed bizarre. They didn’t have any interactions seem to indicate falling in love and all of a sudden, they just loved each other and refused to let each other. I’m actually a bit surprised that one was because a protective and neck and that persona but it’s just wasn’t so much for me. I finished it. I’m excited to read the book, but I’m going to take a little break before I jump right into it.
