With danger closing in from all sides, Abigail Jenson works tirelessly to protect her small Missouri farm.

With nowhere else to turn, Abigail allows the soldier with the seductive Highlander’s gaze to escort her to shelter in a nearby town.

Bravely doing battle has its price when a proud, independent beauty comes under his watch—no military man can risk the powerful emotions their attraction has unleashed.

Ratings and reviews

When I see Hannah Howell beneath a book title, I immediately know it will be a well written, page turning story. Such was the case with When you Love a Scotsman. With a different twist of the Scotsman being in America, during the Civil War, Matthew MacEnroy and his six brothers had landed in a time of turmoil. FIghting in Missouri, Matt and his men come upon a cabin and he finds Abigail Jenson trying to save her parents. When there is no hope for them she goes with Matt to town, where she stays to help with a house of orphans and aid in the care of the wounded. Matt and Abbie's relationship begins to develop but with many twist and turns which include an adorable orphan and a baby that Abbie is left to care for after her friend dies. Matt is released to go home and he takes her with him. The interaction of his family and all the characters that come into play bring the story along. With a few surprises and descriptions that make you feel you are part of the story, this will leave you waiting for the next installment in this series. This can be read as a standalone book although as the brothers are introduced. you will be glad you read the book before!! Well done!

It wasn't a bad story but nothing that great either. This series so far hasn't been that great. Really love all of her other books though.

Loved it! Didn't want it to end. Stay ed up til 5:30 am reading it! Need another one Hannah Howell, there are 5 unwed brothers left!
