About this ebook

From New York Times bestselling author of The Husband Hunt, The Heiress, and other beloved historical romances, comes Lynsay Sands’s An English Bride in Scotland, the first book in a new series set in the wilds of the Highlands.
 
Annabel had planned to become a nun. But when her mother arrives at the Abbey to bring her home to marry a Scottish laird—her runaway sister’s intended husband—her life takes a decidedly different turn.
 
And though Annabel isn’t the wife he’d planned for, strong, sexy Ross McKay is taken with his shy, sweet bride.
 
Annabel knows nothing about being a wife, running a castle—or the marriage bed. But her handsome new husband makes her want to learn. When Annabel’s life is threatened, Ross vows to move the highlands itself to save her and preserve the passion that’s only beginning to bloom.

Ratings and reviews

God...she is stuborn up to being senceless..injury all the time..i've lost interest after not even half of the book. Not even going to finish reading it. Pity such a waste

As a stand alone it is good enough. But it is too much like Always. And while I can see why the ending was written the way it was, it felt forced and the wrong person got the worst punishment.

While always a great read from Sands, the book claimed to be 384 pages, but was only 191 pages. The book is a delight, but I would have preferred to read a longer story as promised.
