Summary
She lives her life on the fly. His heart is double-knotted to home. Can two different souls create a life together? Some Like It Scot is 'a charming, comedic romance ideal for armchair travelers' (Publishers Weekly) set in Scotland, perfect for fans of Sarah Adams and Emma St. Clair.

Popular travel writer and podcaster Katie Campbell roams the world collecting other people's stories. She's built a career as 'Miss Adventure,' known for saying yes to anything new--country, food, or experience--and predictably finding those adventures taking a downward turn into misadventures.

Offered the chance to explore her ancestral roots through a three-week Edwardian experience, Katie finds herself immersed in the beauty and eccentricity of Scotland. In her period attire, with traditional foods and activities, the opportunities for misadventures are endless, especially with the presence of a maniacal macaw, a jealous co-worker, and an all-too-surly Scotsman.

Reclusive and protective Graeme MacKerrow doesn't venture far from his island home. A stoic Scotsman, Graeme's comfort zone has always been family, and after his sister's death, he's even more determined to save the MacKerrow ancestral home and keep those he loves close. The sudden intrusion of a six-foot-one American lass, famous for her traveling misfortunes, was far from his plan.

As this world of folklore, community, and woodworkers-in-kilts tempts Katie to discover her own story, could this one grand series of misadventures lead her directly to where she belongs? And would a settled-in-Scot ever risk loosening his grip on what's familiar to allow a wanderlust writer a home in his heart? How could their very different worlds share the same page of life's story when 'home' is in two very different places? But maybe home--and the future--isn't quite what either one imagined it would be. Maybe home is less about a place . . . and more about a person.

Grab your wellies and step into Some Like It Scot--a heartfelt, hilarious, and clean grumpy/sunshine rom-com with a soft Scottish brogue, a mischievous macaw, Edwardian antics, and more than a few misadventures courtesy of one larger-than-life travel writer and one very guarded Highlander. This isn't just another 'hot Scot' romance--though yes, Graeme MacKerrow does play the brooding hero perfectly--it's also a slow-building journey of healing, faith, and found family.

The author is clearly a Christian because the characters discuss their faith a lot. If that's for you then you will love the book a lot more because it is well-written with likeable characters and humour. The religious element not for me, but I let it play on because of the good storyline and characters. I did buy a print copy as a gift for a much more religious loved one.

What a sweet story. I wasn't even half way through when I recommended it to my mom. it made me giggle and laugh out loud at times. The character growth of the two main characters and their blossoming relationship was captivating. The Scottish accent is quite nice on the ears too.

I have already read and loved this book and am now enjoying the audio version. I am loving these two narrators. Ms. Nielsen presents a relaxing voice that carries Katie through all of her cute quips, opinions, shenanigans and inner thoughts. While Joshua Manning brings Graeme to life with his soft Scottish accent (oh, my) and his oh-so-perfect portrayal of mister matter-of-fact meets grumpy. They each read all of the voices for their particular chapters but that really didn’t bother me since these two narrators are so well paired. Other things I love about the book itself? The heroine, a ginger-headed travel writer, Katie Campbell, is larger than life (no pun intended) who can’t live up to her mom’s expectations, is beyond accident prone and in need of a hero to save her in more ways than one. Enter Graeme MacKerrow, a “handsome but grumpy, barrel-chested, blue-eyed Scot” who is closed off, owing to grief and hurt, when Katie “falls” into his life. This book is suitable for teens and older with no inappropriate intimate scenes and no bad language. I received this audiobook from the author/publisher free of charge, with no expectation of a positive review.
