Veena’s review of A Devil In Scotland (No Ordinary Hero) by Suzanne Enoch
Historical Romance published by St. Martin’s Paperbacks 30 Jan 18
I absolutely love this romance full of delicious characters and sweet, steamy moments.Callum was young and foolish when the love of his life, Becca, settled for safety and security and married his older brother, the earl. Banished, he eventually manages to find himself and create a successful whisky-making empire in America. When news of his brother’s death reaches him, he immediately sets sail for Scotland, determined to seek vengeance. As he lands in Scotland and confronts his brother’s widow and business partners, it’s clear he hasn’t lost any of his vinegar as he uses words and fisticuffs to make his point.
Mags, his brother’s daughter, charms and disarms him forthwith, and the scenes between the two of them add a very nice touch to the overall story. Also for his bluster, it’s soon apparent that he hasn’t lost any of his love and lust for his brother’s widow, his childhood sweetheart Becca. The story is alive and fast moving as Callum confronts his powerful adversaries and gathers evidence against them to bring them to justice.
The story has enough action adventure and steamy romance to tempt any romance reader. An absolutely delicious read that will keep you warm this winter.
Grade: A
