About this audiobook
The plan is simple:
1. Descend from the Highlands to face the aggravation of a London Season;
2. Foist his wild sister off on some gullible English lord;
3. Retreat before the ladies of the scandalized ton can get any ideas.
Determined to see his hellion of a sister wed, Highlander Alexander Waters is willing to face anything-even the English. He just didn't expect his own rough manners to cause such a riot . . . or for a blooming English rose to catch his eye.
Gently bred Catherine Middlebrook must find a respectable man to marry, or her family will be ruined. She won't allow herself to be distracted by Highland barbarians, no matter how her body may thrill whenever Alex is near.
Catherine wasn't part of the plan, but as their battle of wills escalates, Alex comes to realize this "proper" English girl is as wild as the Highlands themselves . . . and nothing will stop him from having her.
Contains mature themes.

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5I liked these characters, but not necessarily the hurdles to their relationship. Their reasoning was kind of weak and it ended up making them seem a bit daft. I liked that the the heroine dared to express her interest and didn't just wait around hoping he would read her mind and know what to do. So she started off smart (though maybe keep an eye on her drinking in the future, sheesh...). But the hero kept thinking 'forever' thoughts and then continuing to think they couldn't possibly marry (though there was no real barrier). That lasted about the entire first half, (which was too long for my preference), but then just when he got on board she went over the side, lol. She didn't even try to repay the money (or determine the amount) she just went headlong toward ruining both their future happinesses. And from the novella following, two more would have been ruined besides, all because she couldn't problem solve worth a damn. I liked the sweet things the hero said throughout. They endeared him to me.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5A simple plan foiled!Alexander Waters has been sent by his mother to escort his wild, free spirited sister through a season in London, and to make sure she is married off to a 'decent' Englishman. There are strong hints that Mary Elizabeth has tried her mother's patience mightily and this is the result. There are definite references throughout that make it obvious that none of the siblings want to be on the short end of their mother's ire. Mary Elizabeth is a fun-filled young lady who is nothing like the English misses Alex so decries. Climbing hemp ropes and sword fights are the least of her past times.On the other hand, Catherine Middlebrook is one of those gently bred English misses (at least on the outside) so decried. We know that the real Catherine is a strong young woman, supportive and willing to sacrifice everything for one season to secure her family's fortune. Her plan is to marry respectably, if not we'll, thereby ensuring that her family is lifted out of their straightened circumstances. Unfortunately, all Catherine's efforts are plagued at every turn by the behaviour of her mother. Her mother's inability to face the reality of their circumstances has far reaching consequences. Alex and Catherine meet when Catherine befriends Mary Elizabeth. Alex is drawn to her, although he has no plans to marry. Indeed his mother instructed him and his brother Robert that they were not to come back from London married. (It's obvious that their English mother has taken up her adopted country with a vengeance. It seem she rules her children with an iron hand.)Catherine and Alex are drawn to each other, but their paths lie in different directions. However the heart sometimes has other ideas, and circumstances can muddle a person's thinking. I enjoyed the antics of all involved and look forward to the next in the series.A NetGalley ARC
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5I started this book because of the beautiful cover and the mention of scot, unfortunately for me i couldn't get into it at all. I was bored even at Page 100, absolutely nothing of interest has happened in those pages, they are still listing their physical attributes, if or not to be interested in each other and if he's going sailing. It seems really drawn out with all the descriptions. I like my books with some little twist or mystery. THANKS TO SOURCEBOOKS CASABLANCA AND NETGALLERY FOR THIS ADVANCED READER'S COPY
