Publisher Description
"Deeply romantic and breathtaking...readers will be swooning and flocking to Scotland long after they’ve turned the last page." —Livy Hart, author of Planes, Trains, and All the Feels
Ready or Scot...
Globetrotter Addie Macrae always follows her wanderlust. As a travel consultant, she jet sets around the world—anywhere but Scotland. But when she’s sent on assignment to help a struggling family-run tour company in the Highlands—and save her own job—Addie packs away her emotional baggage and turns on the professional charm.
Rugged as the land he loves, Logan Sutherland’s greatest joy is sharing the beauty of Scotland’s hidden gems…even if it means a wee bit of red ink on the company’s bottom line. The last thing Logan wants is some American “expert” pushing tourist traps and perpetuating myths about the Loch Ness Monster—especially when Addie never leaves her desk to experience the country for herself.
As they wage an office war, Logan discovers Addie’s secret connection to Scotland: a handful of faded Polaroids of her late mother. Hoping for a truce, he creates a private tour to the places in the pictures to help Addie find closure and appreciate the enchantment in less-traveled destinations, never expecting the off-limits attraction sparking between them. But Addie’s contract is almost up, and magic won’t pay the bills. They can’t afford distractions, but how can Addie do her job if she hasn’t explored all Scotland—and Logan—have to offer?
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Kiley debuts with a charming romance that doubles as a vivid travelogue through Scotland. Logan Sutherland is satisfied with the way things are at his family-run Heart of the Highlands tour company. Therefore, he's very reluctant when his father hires American travel consultant Addie Macrae to refresh their tours and broaden their appeal. Since the death of her mom 10 years earlier, Addie has committed herself to globe-trotting, never staying in one place long enough to form lasting friendships or relationships. Still, Scotland calls to her because of her family heritage and because she has old photos of her mom visiting unlabeled parts of the Scottish countryside and wants to track down the locations. Logan's accent and kilt appeal to Addie, though he makes it difficult, at first, to make progress on modernizing the business. Only after Logan insists that Addie experience the personal, off-the-beaten-track tours he specializes in do they both realize that perhaps a compromise of their styles is possible. Their ensuing romance strikes a nice balance between romantic interludes and heartfelt banter. Armchair travelers will especially enjoy this flirty jaunt through the highlands.
