Publisher Description
From the bestselling author of Fix You, comes the story of an unexpected inheritance, a Scottish castle and the family secrets that surround it.
A successful lawyer, and the eldest of four sisters, Lucy Shakespeare is used to being in control of everything and everyone around her, most particularly herself - until she meets the gorgeous businessman Lachlan MacLeish.
Lachlan's used to getting the best, so when he needs a lawyer, Lucy is the one he hires. His inheritance is suddenly in doubt, thanks to his furious half-brother and there's no way he's going down without a fight. The very last thing he wants is a distraction, but as soon as he sees Lucy, he knows he's in trouble.
Despite their efforts to resist, it isn't long before Lachlan has Lucy longing to break all her careful rules. As they travel from Scotland, to Paris and on to New York, Lucy can't help but wonder: is it sometimes worth risking it all?

Customer Reviews
Lucy and Lachlan’s story!
This is the third book in the Shakespeare Sisters series. This is Lucy and Lachlan's story. I did not read the previous books, but I did not feel I had missed too much by jumping in at book 3.
Lachlan hires Lucy as his overseas lawyer to help him save his Scottish estate from his half brother. A long distance relationship with both having secrets from their pasts make it a tough road, but it was a journey worth taking.
This was my first book by Carrie Elks. I enjoyed the writing style, pace of the book and the twists. This was a fun read.
I am providing my honest review after reading an ARC of this novel.
