When You Love a Scotsman

Seven Brides/Seven Scotsman, Book 2

De: Hannah Howell

Narrado por: Justine Eyre

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.

I liked this story

Very nice book. I like the big family aspect of the story. Just the closeness and support they give to one another.

Second in the series

This is the story of the second MacEnroy brother, Matthew. It is set admist the American Civil War. I have read every piece of work that Ms. Howell has written, and found her biased view of this war disappointing. It it especially confusing when all her other series' always seemed to be protrayed in a even handed way. Other than that irritant, the book was very well written, fun to read, and had joy as well as sadness to stir things up a bit. Would recommend reading if you do not mind a one sided view.

When You Love A Scotsman

I read this one first. Now reading the first one now. Here is Matthew MacEnroy story. Even though his family of brothers are still new to the new country he reluctantly enlists in the Union Army. His enlistment is nearly up. and four of his unit are ambushed and headed toward a cabin they spot in the woods. Abigail Jenson is there with her dying father and mother who after the last ambush is not all there. Matthew and Abigail start their courtship amidst the war ending. Can they let the other know that what they feel is more than lust? And is he willing to take on a single woman who now has two small children to care for? The narration had me listening to it till the very end.

Entertaining

Well I went ahead and listened to this second book. It was a little hard because JE was narrating. But the story line is good. The setting is during the Civil War era so it starts off with action.

I want a Scotsman…

I have enjoyed both books so far! I wish she would have taken a sentence or two to mention the war was hard yes, but as Scotsmen they understood the fight for freedom. HELLLOOOOO…They had battles and a war for freedom too!
