Isabel is serious and hard-working, but trapped by familial obligations, even though she wants more out of life. Alasdair’s life has been full of work and more work,. Isabel’s mother returns from a trip to Scotland with a big, sexy Scot in tow, who turns out to be Alasdair’s uncle. Isabel and Alasdair, while trying to protect each of their loved ones, discover how to have fun and live in the moment, while ultimately falling in love. This was a fast-paced, fun read. Although it had the typical elements of a romance novel, the preservation of Scottish history and traditions in America brought a unique perspective to the story. This is the first novel in the Highland, Georgia series and I look forward to the next book.
