Ian MacGregor, the new and reluctant Earl of Balfour, has grudgingly accepted that he must wed an English heiress to repair the family fortunes. He even picked out a likely candidate to woo.
But So Is His Heart...
When Ian befriends penniless spinster August Merrick, they both know it's only meant to get to the wealthy girl she's chaperoning on a tour of the Highlands. But their attraction grows despite their better judgment, and it becomes increasingly impossible to see how Ian can betray either his family or his own heart.
I am a lover of books that take place in the Scottish Highlands. This is the first book in a Victorian series and was so enjoyable I can't wait for the next book. Right away I fell for the MacGregor brothers and couldn't wait to see how the situation worked itself out. Sparks fly where they shouldn't and the pages turned quickly. Grace has become one of my go to authors.Author: Grace Burrows

This complimentary review copy was received thankfully from Danielle and Sourcebooks Casablanca and in no way influenced my review of this book. These are my personal thoughts and reactions to the reading of the book.

I love books set in the Highlands too.
I will read it next week :)
If that is the bridegroom on the cover, he shouldn't wear plaid … or anything at all!
There's just something about Highlanders. :)
It would be hard to open that book - I'd be busy staring at the cover!
I've been in the mood for romance lately so I'm definitely adding this one to my TBR list. It sounds great and I love the cover!!
I need to add more historical romances this year so I'm adding this to the wish list.
