My Thoughts:
I’m a sucker for a Scottish Highlander romance, but this was a little different since it took place in London instead of Scotland. Three brothers are tasked with marrying English women or lose their English mother’s funding of their home, Aldriss Park. Coll’s two younger brothers have fulfilled their part of the bargain and fortunately for them fell in love (books one and two of the series) in the process. But Coll can’t find a woman and doesn’t want to. Bending to his mother’s will after she left them seventeen years back doesn’t sit well with him. I wasn’t a big fan of his mother at first, but reading on I came to like her more, and we all make mistakes, right?

Persephone Jones does what she loves best, acting, but her success brings unwanted attention and scrutiny especially since she’s trying to hide her true identity. When Coll steps up to protect Persephone from and unwanted suitor attraction sparks and ignites!

I do love me a sexy Scottish Highlander and Coll MacTaggart fit the bill nicely! Big, protective, and devilishly handsome he ticked all the boxes for me. The romance between Persephone and Coll, playful and hot, was rounded out by the search for the one trying to harm Persephone. The details of theater life were fun and interesting as well.

Hit Me With Your Best Scot was not only an eye catching title, but an engaging, fun romance. I’d love to read more by Suzanne Enoch!

Goodreads Description:
The MacTaggert brothers have one task:
Find English brides or lose their land!

Coll MacTaggert, Viscount Glendarril, is a big, brawny Highlander who doesn’t like being told what to do—not even by his exasperated English mother who is determined to see her eldest son wedded and bedded. However, when he comes to the rescue of an irresistibly beautiful woman, Coll discovers that he may have found his perfect match…

The challenge isn’t that Persephone Jones is famous, wealthy, independent, and smarter than anyone he knows. The problem is that she is not interested in marrying any man---especially not a hot-headed Scot—even if he is the only man who seems to understand who she really is even when she’s not sure herself. When Coll learns that Persephone is actually a lady-in-hiding and someone is willing to kill her for what she stands to inherit…Well, Coll has never been one to turn down a fight. When hearts are involved, nothing comes between a Highlander and his lady.

  2. Robin enjoys there and reviews them. I just don't read historical romance very much. They have really cute titles.

  3. I used to read highlander novels, but that was years ago. I like that this one is set in England for a change. It's the kilt and the accent that matter is what I say. :) Great review, Rachel!

  4. That would be tough to be the oldest and remember more about the mom who left and then have her dictating terms, but sounds like he found a fun heroine. Neat that the theater played a part in this one.

  5. This is another romance sub-genre I have yet to dip my toe in, but I love all the punny names the books have. Mystery, a great romance, and a hot hero. Sounds perfect to me.

  7. I went through a Scottish Highlander phase years ago (fictionally speaking LOL) but it's been years. This sounds like a fun series. I like the basic for their meeting... with him stepping in to protect/defend her.
