About this ebook

A family of seven seductive Scottish brothers have come to America to find love in this historical romance by the New York Times–bestselling author.
 
Arkansas Ozarks, 1860. A brutal attack on Emily Stanton’s family has left her for dead—until she is found in the woods by a handsome stranger with a thick brogue who vows to protect her. There’s only one problem: As a woman with a noble English background, she has no business keeping company with a Scotsman of low birth.  
 
For Iain MacEnroy, Emily’s high-tone accent is a bitter reminder of the oppressive regime he left behind. The last thing he needs is to be burdened by the needs of a beautiful, blue-eyed Englishwoman. But taking care of elegant, educated Emily begins to transform Iain in ways he never imagined. Could it be that the deep divisions from the old world no longer apply in the new? And that Iain and Emily can share a passion as lush and wild as the Scottish highlands themselves?

Ratings and reviews

This is the first in new series about seven brides for seven Scotsmen. The author spins the tale of Iain who finds Emily and her nephew after her family is murdered and brings them back to family compound with his brothers for protection and safety. This is good tale of western blended in with the Scotsmen who came to this country . Ebook from Net Galley and publishers with thanks Opinions are entirely my own.

The author prattles on a lot, and has a very redundant style of writing. The romance was lukewarm at best. The plot was interesting, but I often found myself thinking, "get to the point already, Hannah. "

Really good book. I liked that Ms. Howell brought Scotland to the states, though I wasn't sure I would. I can't wait to see how she marries off six brother and extended family in this series.
