  We are back in Regency England for Ella Matthews' historical romance, The Earl's Unlikely Bride.    One summer to make her his…   After four failed seasons, Emily Hawkins is tired of following the rules. Aside from crossing swords with her lifelong enemy, Freddie Dashworth, she is an exemplary member of Society. But after all this time, she’s yet to find a husband and life with her over-bearing mother is becoming intolerable. Freddie returns to his childhood home to help look after his orphaned niece. His neighbour, Emily, has been his nemesis for years. The infuriating miss is the only woman immune to his charms and there’s nothing he enjoys more than her disapproving glares. It’s a shame he can’t stop thinking about her, because she clearly despises him. One minor indiscretion later and everything in Emily’s ordered world changes. The one person on her side appears to be Freddie but can she trust her former antagonist? And what will happen to her when ...

Highland Games by Evie Alexander #Review #Giveaway #Kinloch series

 

Today I have a hilarious romcom, Highland Games by Evie Alexander which is part of the The Kinloch Series and which was published on 15th October. I also have a great giveaway with the chance to win a signed copy of the book. Details on how to enter are at the foot of this post.


A fiery heroine, a Scottish god, a cabin, a castle, and enough heat to warm the coldest Scottish winter…

Highland Games is an unputdownable, enemies-to-lovers, romantic comedy, with sparkle and sizzle and a guaranteed happy ending. This sexy, witty, debut from Evie Alexander will have you laughing, swooning, and staying up way past your bedtime...

Perfect for fans of Sally Thorne, Talia Hibbert, Sophie Kinsella, and Helen Hoang. If you’re looking for a riotous romantic comedy with plenty of heat, then Highland Games is for you!

♥♥♥ Welcome to Kinloch, and the hottest winter Scotlands ever seen. ♥♥♥

Zoe’s always played it safe, just as her parents wanted. But when her great-uncle dies and leaves her a ramshackle cabin in the Scottish Highlands, she decides it’s time to change her life.

Upping sticks seems like a good idea in her cosy flat in London, but the reality is very different. There’s no electricity or running water, the roof leaks and there’s no front door. If that wasn’t bad enough, she’s moved up in the depths of winter and her scorching hot neighbour wants her out.

Rory’s got a fifty thousand tonne problem. If he can’t make Kinloch castle profitable, he’s out of a job. He needs a clear head, but there’s someone living in the cabin he saw as his own and she’s turned his world upside down.

Rory needs Zoe out of Scotland, and out of his life. The trouble is, she has no intention of leaving.

Let the games begin…

My Thoughts

 This is a lively and amusing romcom which is just right for escapist reading. There are some pretty hot scenes of course, so be warned! In Zoe you have a bright and vivacious character who feels drawn back to the Highlands where she stayed as a child. What she finds there is warm friendship and a second family who are delighted to welcome her back. Rory has quite a few secrets which gradually come to light.

    The setting is gorgeous and despite the fact that the cabin Zoe inherits is something of a hovel, you can imagine it taking shape. Zoe and Rory both share a love of the countryside and love the wildness and open spaces. There are some genuinely amusing moments in the story and the repartee between Zoe and Rory keeps fizzing along. An enemies to lovers story, this is an enjoyable, fun read. 

In short: a fun romcom
