3 posts | 2 read | 4 to read
When a thirty-something American food writer moves to a Scottish village for one year to fulfill her dream of writing a cookbook she finds more than inspirationshe meets a handsome Scotsman she cant resist in this charming debut romance. Ruby Spencer is spending one year living in a small cottage in a tiny town in the Scottish Highlands for three reasons: to write a bestselling cookbook, to drink a barrelful of whisky, and to figure out what comes next. Its hard to know what to expect after an impulse decision based on a map of Scotland in her Manhattan apartmentbut she knows its high time she had an adventure. The moment she sets foot in Thistlecross, the verdant scenery, cozy cottages, and struggling local pub steal her heart. Between designing pop-up suppers and conversing with the colorful locals, Ruby starts to see a future that stretches beyond her year of adventure. It doesnt hurt that Brochan, the ruggedly handsome local handyman, keeps coming around to repair things at her cottage. Though Ruby swore off men, she cant help fantasizing what a roll in the barley might be like with the bearded Scot. As Ruby grows closer to Brochan and the tightly held traditions of the charming village, she discovers secret plans to turn her beloved pub into an American chain restaurant. Faced with an impossible choice, Ruby must decide between love, loyalty, and the Highlands way of life.

Meh, this was okay. I didn‘t feel a strong connection between Brochan and Ruby, but really liked Grace. It‘s a cute romance, with some unnecessary sex scenes, but overall it was just okay for me.

My rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Very cute. I think I would have preferred it with less descriptive sex scenes but it seems that's what sells.
