review 1: This should have been an outright 5-star review if not for the rather short length of the story. I really love how the author made me care for the characters, but my only gripe is that the story was too short for me to care about them more. I've already read the previous 2 books, but I wish there was more depth to Riley. I felt like the appearance of her ex-husband was just thrown in as a convenient conflict factor, but I needed MORE. Because of that, I felt like there wasn't really any conflict to begin with. Jamie's character seemed superficial as well, even if he was a POV. The story's downfall is it's length. The author could have done more exposition that would have made the story more gripping and believable.
review 2: Kam McKellar's Mad about Plaid, A Sc... moreot for You, and The Trouble with Kilts are light romance novellas. Mad About Plaid Each are quick easy reads--just the right thing for the holidays. Each centers around a cousin from a set of three, who visit a castle and an estate turned into a resort. New A Scot Like YouEach falls in love with one of the MacLaren brothers. All are sexy, young, and beautiful and handsome. The countryside is breathtaking and the innkeepers are a set of friendly down-to-earth matchmakers.Yes, the novels The Trouble with Kiltsare formulaic but that is not necessarily a bad thing. It is not the stuff of serious literary romance novels, but again that is not a bad thing. As in Escaping Innocence: A Story of Awakening by Joe Perrone, McKellar's writing is fun and interesting to read. It is a way to go back for those of us over forty without having to self analyze everything in our past. McKellar's words at the end about love happening fast or when you least it expect it rings true. That is the premise of the novels. They also made me thankful for the love in my life...and now more than ever, make me want to visit Scotland.If you listen closely, you can hear a bagpipe... less
