A new story in the smart, sexy Scottish historical romance Wild Wicked Highlanders series from New York Times bestselling author Suzanne Enoch!
In Scot Under the Covers, a clever English lady and a resourceful Highlander join forces to trick a scoundrel, and every rule will be broken!
Miranda Harris is known for her charm, beauty, and is known for her ability to solve even the most difficult with ease.

"It's time to fall in love with Suzanne Enoch." ― Lisa Kleypas
And this particular devil is an untamed Scotsman with his own agenda. Handsome Highlander Aden MacTaggert knows next to nothing about Britain's aristocrats, but he knows his way around gamblers and women. Still, Aden is not sure how he'll manage to find a Sassenach bride in time to save his family's inheritance. But his almost sister-in-law's dilemma offers him a chance: She will help him navigate London society and he'll teach her everything about wagering…and winning back her freedom. Their partnership strikes sparks from the start. But will they be able to recognize the winning hand they hold together?
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
The flawless second Regency era romance in Enoch's Wild Wicked Highlanders series (after It's Getting Scot in Here) hinges on a pair of enemies turned lovers who gamble with both their money and their hearts. Miranda Harris has always loathed games of chance, and her hatred only grows when her brother trades her hand in marriage to clear his gambling debt. Miranda would rather go to debtor's prison than marry the odious Capt. Robert Vale, but before she resigns herself to a cell, she tries her hand at winning her freedom back, reluctantly seeking the help of handsome master gambler Aden MacTaggert. In order to keep parental funds flowing into his Highland estate, Aden must marry a London-bred woman. He agrees to teach Miranda about gambling ostensibly in exchange for lessons on London manners that will help him meet a match, but really because he's charmed by witty, outspoken Miranda and hopes to turn her disdain for him into affection. High stakes, spirited characters, and off-the-charts chemistry keep the pages turning as Enoch balances humor, heat, and tension. This is Highland romance done right.
