HOW TO SEDUCE A SCOT is the first book in Broadswords and Ballrooms series by Christy English. The author creates a cute and easy reading historical romance with a Scottish hero and English heroine.
Alexander Waters and his brother, Robert, have come to London to see their hellion sister find an English husband. Alexander can't wait to leave London and be done with his sister's marriage business; he didn't expect to get attracted to the proper English miss, Catherine Middlebrook, the only English young lady who befriends his sister, Mary Elizabeth.
Catherine's family can only afford one season for her to find a husband. She is looking for an Englishman who can support her family and save them before they lose everything. She doesn't have time for distraction and a handsome highlander so why can't she stop dreaming about Alexander and his kisses.
Mrs. Christy' first book in the Broadswords and Ballrooms is a delightful and fast read romance. The whole story takes place in London with the Waters family residing in Duchess Northumberland's house. The author didn't mention exactly why Alexander's mother wants her only daughter marry an Englishman, while her sons aren't allowed to marry English ladies. Even though Mary Elizabeth is a hellion I love her and can't wait to read her story.
