Early Audio review: When you love a Scotsman - Hannah Howell

With danger closing in from all sides, Abigail Jenson works tirelessly to protect her small Missouri farm. She doesn't require saving-but a handsome officer appears on horseback just as ruthless marauders set her cabin ablaze. With nowhere else to turn, Abigail allows the soldier with the seductive Highlander's gaze to escort her to shelter in a nearby town. Matthew MacEnroy was reluctant to join his adopted nation's conflict-until an enemy attack wounded two of his brothers. Bravely doing battle has its price when a proud, independent beauty comes under his watch-no military man can risk the powerful emotions their attraction has unleashed. But when Matthew himself is caught in the crossfire, Abigail leads their long journey home to MacEnroy valley . . . and her caring touch sparks the promise of a bold future together.

My thoughts:
Another damsel in distress and one that is saved by Union soldiers (but she can shoot better than them but if the odds are against you then they just are.)

Abigail was kind, a good shot, had learned medicine from her dad, and well I can not say anything bad about her,

Matthew, oh these brothers, is that how you court a woman? Ask...talk...I really hope the next brother gets a woman who says, nope! We shall talk a bit first. But I mean he is a sweet guy, the best, just, ask man, ask.

The war is raging on, though they do have it somewhat better where they are. Mostly marauders in these hills. But there is fighting, death, mayhem, but also a blossoming romance. Sometimes you just have to go for it among all the rest.

And the epilogue, aye, I liked that.

Narrator: Justine Eyre
I do like her voice, and her Scottish accent, lol, aye it makes me lol. Her range is perhaps not the best but she is so pleasant listening too.

  8. I struggle horribly with historical romances featuring Scotsmen / based in Scotland... Is it weird to say that I think the disconnect is because I'm Scottish and the way our dialect(s) and history is typically portrayed makes me die a little inside? lol
