ABOUT THE BOOK
A Buzzfeed “19 Anticipated Books That Have Finally Been Released For You To Read”
The final book in the wickedly seductive new Scottish historical romance trilogy from New York Times bestselling author Suzanne Enoch, Hit Me With Your Best Scot!
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 isn't 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.
REVIEW
In Hit Me with Your Best Scot Coll McTaggart is the last of the McTaggert’s who needs to find a bride, or his mother will pull all financial resources from his father and their Scottish land. Persephone Jones has everything she wants, independence and a job she loves. She begins to suspect her life is in danger and finds the idea of male protection necessary. When the path of these two crosses, they find they can help each other. Coll in finding a bride, and Persephone protection.
Although this story did not find its way to even a top ten for me and it is not my favorite of the series that I have read, it did not make me cringe while reading it. Admittedly, historical romances are not my favorite backdrop, but I do not mind them from time to time and I like a Scottish highlander. Persephone can stick up for herself and she is not a push over. Coll respects her and does not treat her like an unintelligent woman. There is not much of a slow burn here, lust plays a big part in their coming together and they do not deny that for long. The rigid society that surrounds them hinders their relationship, but they overcome it. Coll and Persephone make a good pair and there is a sweetness to them. I would recommend this to anyone who enjoys historical romance.
