When you're Scottish, you always give Scottish set romances a weary eye.  Sometimes you wonder if the author has ever read anything about Scotland, never mind researched it or even visited it.  However this has been added to my "acceptable list" lol

I loved the enthusiasm for the history and scenery of Scotland. Sadly not all my countrymen look like Logan or even know how to tune a kilt.  But the story more than makes up for any wee blips.  The story also called to me as I once was a travel agent so all that work dealing with passengers, providers, etc brought back some memories!

Addie has major case of wanderlust brought on by the death of her mum. Logan loves showing off the less well travelled areas of Scotland but the family company is still struggling.

Addie and Logan may be opposites in personality but they have a lot of commonalities, loneliness, family resentments and both are very determined to live life their way. They also hide a soft centre that they don't often let others see.

There are smexy scenes but they are not graphic or particularly spicy.  The banter is great and the dialogue almost sounds right in my head (but Scotland has a lot of accents so that can be forgiven) but very few men, especially younger ones will ever call you lass.
