What Happens in Scotland

Lover of Romance 

When Georgette awakens in the arms of a naked stranger, she is stunned to discover that she has no memory of the previous evening. She has no idea how she got into a strange bed but apparently she has done some pretty scandalous things...and then she finds a ring on her finger....and in a fit of panic she hits her new apparent husband over the head with a chamber pot and abandons him and flees. When Georgette returns home, she finds that her memory is starting to slowly return....like she has to put the pieces together....so she starts investigating trying to find out the identity of her "new" husband. But when she finally does find him....she finds out he has been trying to find her because he believes her to be a thief, and doubts that they are truly really married....as they together search to find out the truth....there is something powerful building between them....and they start to wonder if and when they find out if they are truly married....will they both want to stay married?What Happens In Scotland was a fun and adventurous romance novel....and I am so grateful and Avon and Edelweiss gave me the opportunity to read this and be able to review it. When I first saw the cover....I was thinking "This Is A Must Read", it just drew me in and the moment I was the Synopsis, I was hooked, I started reading it, and I was amazed by how much I loved it. Jennifer McQuistion is a new author...and I just loved her style of writing. It was witty, and crazy, and a breath of fresh air. Most historical aren't very comical without ruining the whole plot...however I loved how McQuiston just put everything together, and how smoothly the story flowed and synced together to make a truly magical love story that will put at the readers heartstrings. There were quite a few things I loved about this story. One of the first was how Georgette just bangs her new husband over the head with a chamber pot (now that was pure genius) and I definitely laughed my head off at that one, and I just loved the creative way Georgette goes about to find her Husband....there were so many things that made me laugh and just got me more into the story. I also loved how Georgette and James interact with each other. At first they are enemies...and then friends...who turn into lovers....and there is definitely some twists and turns...and as always...a Villian who really makes things happen....Overall A Delightful Read that will make you eager for more from this debut author!

           Interesting, but not entirely unforgettable. The whole book takes place in a day and sometimes read like insta-love. Full review to come.

I had a right craving (is craving the right word? Well now I'm thinking of books like food let's embrace it) for some historical romance before I picked this up. I'd originally planned to reread a tried and true favourite like Tessa Dare but thought I'd better look at the 100+ unread books lurking on my Kindle for instead and stumbled across this Jennifer McQuiston book I'd bought months (if not years) ago. I'm so glad I did because it was such an easy and enjoyable read.

Georgette awakes to a strange man in an unfamiliar bed and no memory of her previous evening but with a definite hangover threatening. Immediately I liked the woman and when she was flinging a chamber pot at his head... well... that just made me like her more. She was far too focused upon what was right so seeing her slowly unwind and let herself enjoy life as the book progressed and also learn to stand up for herself was just so satisfying.

And the strange man who she brained with a chamber pot? James was alright too although it frustrated me how quick he was to assume the worst of Georgette with very little information. He did grow on me though. His Scottish brogue and stubborn streak helped. Do love me a stubborn man. And he was such a good guy when he was actually thinking things through and he charmed me over time. It helped that I could tell he was head over heels for Georgette long before he did.

This was quick to read and so great. I didn't want to put it down because I wanted to figure out what on earth happened to James and Georgette and the evening they both forgot. It was an exciting ride to say the least and now I want to read more from the author.
