review 1: To Scotland With Love was my first novel by this author. I must admit to not being as huge a fan of contemporary romance as I am of historicals, but now and then I find one I really like. This book was very sweet and very sad at the same time. I really enjoyed it and can’t wait to read the next one in the series.Caitriona Macleod had gave up her career as an investigative reporter for what she thought was the perfect marriage. Then her husband ends up dead in his mistress bed and it turns her world upside down. So she decides to go back to her birthplace and visit her grandmother in hopes of restarting her life.She had bought a piece of property in Scotland without actually seeing it and when she gets there she finds the cottage burned to the ground. Her new start is off... more to a rough start and then she finds out her neighbor is non other than the Scottish actor Graham Buchanan and the sexiest man alive. She knows that people are looking for him as he has been out of the public eye and here he is in this little Scottish town called Gandiegow. She thinks this could be her big break because this could get her back into reporting.She is also trying to get back into the good graces of her gram, but that seems to be a lot harder than she thought it would be. Cait soon falls for everyone in the town, including Graham. I could tell right away that this is going to be a very heartwarming series as all of the characters are just great. Cait is tired of all the things that has happened in her life, she goes to Gadiegow to find herself again, not fall in love. She is done with marriage and men, but the Buchanan men get under skin real fast. She use to babysit Graham’s son when she was younger and now Duncan has a little boy of his own. Maddy quickly warms Cait’s heart as he doesn’t speak because of a trauma he witnessed. He is such a sweet little boy. In the small town of Gandigow everyone knows everyone and they are all very protective of their native son, Graham. Her gram makes her very much aware of that fact. Graham is a very secretive man and though being an actor has been a way to help his town it has also put a rift between him and his son. He is not looking for love, but a causal relationship. At first he is a little leary of Cait because he knows she is a reporter and he is waiting for the article to come out about where he lives. That aside he can’t help wanting to get closer to Cait. Cait’s gram has a quilting club and they always meet at her house so Cait gets to be involved with them as she is also a quilter. They are of all ages and are all a lot of fun. They are what help make the book so good. If you’re into contemporary romances set in a Scottish setting then you will love this one. But be warned you will end up needing a tissue or two because it turned out to have a very sad part towards the end.
review 2: What a fantastic read! Aside from the excellent writing, the best part of this fictional work is the use of real life situations. This book is rooted on the concept of second chances. A second chance after death, divorce, career failure, etc- and through overcoming life struggles, individuals can still find hope, love, and acceptance. I love books that provide a common element, and then take the reader on an escapist adventure, with witty humor, true humanity, and a great ending. If you are looking for a fun, entertaining read (with a hot Scotsman), this book is the book for you! less
