A Scot to the Heart by Caroline Linden

emotional funny lighthearted medium-paced

3.75

Caroline Linden's "A Scot to the Heart" takes readers on jaunt through Georgian historical romance, landing at a respectable 3.75 stars in my book. The tale of Captain Andrew St. James, a Scottish military man thrust into English nobility, brings a delightful mix of challenging emotions and familial dynamics. Linden paints a lively picture of Edinburgh and the clash between Scottish spirit and English decorum. While the storyline has its captivating moments, the pacing felt uneven, and some character development left me wanting more. The romantic interplay between Andrew and Ilsa Ramsay, though emotional and engaging, seemed a touch predictable. Yet, Linden's narrative shines with its exploration of duty, family ties, and the inevitable clash between tradition and individual desires. Fans of Scottish heroes and historical romance will find this a worthwhile read, but it falls just shy of a higher rating.
