Five Reasons You Should Read All Scot and Bothered:

1. Kerrigan Bryne’s clever and beautiful writing.
Ms. Bryne expertly brings her characters to life, I felt every raw emotion: longing, passion, anger, and vulnerability along with Cecelia and Ramsey. Her writing is beautiful without being overly flowery and distracting.
2. The romance!
Lovely, delicious buildup, and oh, the wicked thoughts Mr. Ramsey does have running through his creative mind! He’s tried to control his indulgences and desires, but every time he’s around Cecilia he turns into a somewhat primal beast, and I loved it! Cecilia is not experienced, but she’s an adventurous woman with goals, determination, and a positive self-possessed spirit I admired. Their varied qualities spiced and enhanced the romance!
3. Never a dull moment!
There was danger, mystery, and passion and the mix kept me on the edge of my seat. I was so captivated, I read the story in a twenty-four-hour period.
4. The female friendship and camaraderie!
Alexandra, Francesca and Cecelia are not blood, but they are sisters of the heart, there for each other through thick and thin. These ladies are the kind that don’t ask questions, just help bury the body! My kind of girlfriends for sure!
5. The ending will make you happy!
Who doesn’t want a happy ending, especially now?! This is a romance so this is hardly a spoil, but All Scot and Bothered will leave you with a dreamy smile on your face!

All Scot and Bothered is the second book in The Devil You Know series, but it isn't necessary to read the prior book. You will miss Alexandra's story, though, and that would be a tragedy!

  1. I see nothing but raves for Kerrigan Byrne but have yet to read anything by her. It's been years since I read historical romance but seeing so much love for her, and this latest release, has me thinking it's time to change that!

    1. She's a pretty new-to-me-author, but so far she's been a standout for me in the genre.

  2. I have been seeing this book popping up on my feed a lot this week. I don't really read historical romance, but this book has all the elements I absolutely adore in my romances. Glad it was a hit!

  4. I meant to keep going with this series and got side-tracked. It sounds even better than book one. :)
