A Celebrated Smuggler and Whisky Distiller Must Choose Between Love and Freedom in Laird of Rogues, a Scottish Historical Romance from Susan King
—Scotland, 1822—
When King George IV visits Edinburgh, he expects to meet the distiller of Glenbrae, his favorite whisky. So the city’s deputy lord provost, Sir Hector Graham, acts quickly to release Ronan MacGregor, Laird of Glenbrae—one of the falsely accused Whisky Lairds—from the castle dungeon to tidy him up for the royal occasion. The provost expects his daughter, who speaks Gaelic, to teach the Highlander some English and manners. What the provost doesn’t know: the notorious smuggler is, in fact, a polished lawyer from Perth.
Ellison Graham, Sir Hector’s widowed daughter, sets out to transform the rough and rugged Highlander into a gentleman, only to discover he is indeed bred to the peerage, has no intention of meeting the king—and has begun to steal her heart.
Sequestered at a Highland estate with Ellison, Ronan continues the ruse while doing his utmost to help his kinsmen and save his whisky business. He never expects to fall in love with the captivating widow—a secret writer of sensational adventure fiction who longs for some passion and adventure of her own.
Ronan’s most guarded secret could bring him a viscountcy but ignites a bitter rivalry that threatens his whisky enterprise and soon endangers the woman he loves. Now Ellison must find the courage to face her fears—and Ronan must choose between coveted freedom and protecting the love that could change his life forever...if only he can stay out of the dungeon.

A wonderful new book by this well-known author had me enthralled from the opening chapter and it just kept getting better as the plot unfolded. The Whisky Lairds, incarcerated for smuggling, have become a spectacle in the City of Edinburgh. Hiding behind a facade of ignorance, Ellison Graham is tasked with translating from Gaelic for the prisoners and educating Ronan MacGregor in the ways of society, ensuring that he will be in a fit state to be presented to the King upon his visit to the city.

Loved this edition of The Whiskey Lairds. Also, a better job editing: only a few misses rather than what I saw in the previous two. It was a long wait, but it was worth it. Well written historical romance with intrigue, romance, and movement to keep your interest.
