CAUGHT BY THE SCOT

Romance Historical

CAUGHT BY THE SCOT is a fabulously witty and irresistibly sexy Scottish historical romance from New York Times bestseller Karen Hawkins. Fans of Julia Quinn, Monica McCarty, and Julie Garwood will be won over by the spellbinding Made to Marry series.

I really enjoyed reading CAUGHT BY THE SCOT and feel it is the perfect book to enjoy with a hot cup of tea while snuggled in a warm blanket. Hawkins has written another witty and charming romantic story that will melt your heart leaving you with a warm fuzzy feeling.

The story begins when Connor and his brothers go visit their sister who is expecting a baby. When they arrive, they discover that their sister has passed away while giving birth leaving her husband and infant son behind. They are all upset and heartbroken. This is when their brother-in-law tells them of their sister's wishes. She wants all of them to find a bride within three months or they will lose their inheritance. If they do not find a bride then their inheritance will go to their enemies, a fellow clan. This makes all of them furious.

Connor soon thinks of one woman he could marry, a girl he grew up with that is the sister of his closest friend. He knows she is a spinster and knows she will be grateful for his offer. However, when he arrives at her home, he quickly learns that she has eloped with a farmer. That is when he chases after them. Thea is in love with Connor but she never gets to see him so when Lance shows up telling her he loves her she agrees to marry him. Soon she realizes that Lance does not see her has a woman but as a spinster. This is where all the drama begins.

Karen Hawkins really writes with lots of emotion. There is a mesh of truly deep feelings with enough lightheartedness and characters buildup that will leave you wanting more.

SUMMARY

Dashing Scottish privateer Conner Douglas must marry a
respectable, well-born womanβ€”
and soon, if he wants to secure his rightful inheritance.
Determined to still
explore the high seas as well as his mistresses’ beds, he
aims to find a pliable
wife who’ll turn a blind eye to his antics. And he knows
just the womanβ€”childhood
friend and mousy spinster Miss Theodora Cumberbatch-
Snowe.

Unbeknownst to Conner, meek and plain Theodora has been
hopelessly in love with him
for years. But unwilling to wait forever for what will
never happen, Theodora plans
to wed a kindβ€”if unexcitingβ€”local landowner, leaving
behind the wild Highlander of
her dreams.

Yet Conner refuses to let his perfect wife get away. He
chases her to Gretna Green
and is shocked to discover the real Theodora is an ardent
and wildly sensual woman.
Soon he realizes his passion to win her has nothing to do
with securing his
inheritance and everything to do with earning the love of
the unforgettable woman
who has vowed to leave him in her past forever. But have
his wandering ways chased
the woman he loves away for good? Or can Conner convince
Theodora to give him one
last chance before she marries the wrong man?
