Emma Castle, a marriage therapist, has just made the greatest faux pas of her career, and no less than on a video that has gone viral. For a therapist to actually admit happily ever after is a fantasy, her reputation is now in shambles, especially since her parents are famous therapists and authors of books they have written on the subject.

Leaving Los Angeles after being fired she is first stopping in Gandigow, Scotland to visit her friend Claire Russo, then plans to spend time with her parents in London to ride out the media persecution. Instead of Claire meeting her at the airport, the dreaded Scot, Gabriel MacGregor, appears.

With heads butting and bantering a given constant since Claire and Dominique's wedding ten years ago, he's definitely the very last person she needs. Avoiding him at all costs, even when visiting her close friend before, this has always been Emma's uppermost concern. She is surprised to find that he apparently is a doctor and not the incorrigible rogue she expects.

Gabe's father fostered Dominique after the loss of his parents, giving him a loving family and instilling uppermost devotion to Gabe. What Emma finds in the small remote village isn't what she expects. Claire has her mind set to have a baby and will do whatever she has to in getting her way, thus placing Emma in the middle. Emma is also thrust upon the women of the village and the Quilting Central. Staying at the Quilting Dorm, she is coerced by Deydie and the other women into making the Gandigow Dr. Quilt, given to each new doctor for his first Christmas there.

Between reluctantly providing therapy to Mattie, a small boy suffering from mutism after losing his father, and counseling incidental drop-ins while at Quilting Central, Emma is beginning to change her mind about the devilish and sexy Scottish warrior. Claire discovers her best friend has lied to her about her sexual conquests when it's revealed she has only slept with 3 men and never had an orgasm. Emma faces losing the friendship of the woman she loves the most right along with the man that makes the sparks fly and her body hum.

This book is A Kilts and Quilts novel and the first I have had the pleasure of reading. Full of deceit from a woman professed to be completely forthright and honest, everything gets turned topsy-turvy when she realizes just what she wants most in her life. Nothing is as she thought when related to love and marriage. The rude awakening comes at a high cost. I loved the village residents' involvement throughout the story and the emotion shown by all the characters. MEET ME IN SCOTLAND is a warmhearted and charming tale of two friends, each attempting to deal with love in their own way. Definitely a "must read" for any woman with romance in her heart. An excellent and recommended read.

SUMMARY

You can run from your problems, but you can’t hide from love in the Scottish seaside town of Gandiegow....

When a video of her calling happily ever after “a foolish fantasy” goes viral, marriage therapist Emma Castle is out of a job—and off to Scotland. The tiny town of Gandiegow is the perfect place to ride out the media storm and to catch up with her childhood friend Claire. But also in Gandiegow is the one man she hoped never to see again.

She’s successfully avoided Gabriel MacGregor since Claire and Dominic’s wedding, only to find he’s now the village doctor—and just as tall, dark, and devilish as ever. Claire and Dominic’s blissful marriage, however, is not what it used to be. Soon Emma and Gabriel find themselves taking sides even as the sparks begin to fly between them. Can Emma help her friends—or regain her career—as she struggles with her own happily ever after?
