Deep sigh, this is how I feel when I finish one of Anna Campbell’s stories, she never fails to makes me feel so good, I could melt in a puddle of happiness, Hamish, you have to get to know Hamish what a hero he is everything a beautiful smart English woman would want even if they have fought like cat and dog for years and it takes her a bit to see this, scandal has bought them together now let’s see their journey to love and happiness.

Emily Baylor is the daughter of a Scottish astronomer, she is smart and often helps her father and other people in the field with their work, her father often mentors young men and one in particular the laird of Glen Lyon is way too arrogant in Emily’s opinion and they clash often, but when one night scandal erupts Emily can do nothing else but except Hamish’s proposal to save her reputation, but Emily is determined to add a stipulation to the proposal that Emily soon realizes may have not been the best condition.

Hamish, Laird of Glen Lyon is Scottish through and through but has lived a lot of his life in England a keen astronomer he is taken in and mentored in the house of Sir Baylor, here he learns a lot but also clashes with his mentor’s daughter Emily, when at a presentation Emily is about to push his buttons, this causes a scandal in the gardens, innocent as it is there is nothing Hamish can do except marry Emily.

I loved this story from page one Emily and Hamish are really meant to be together, their fiery clashes have a very sensual pull, Emily is determined to stay chaste it might take her a bit to see the error of her ways but a trip to the Scottish highlands sees all barriers fold spectacularly with a very sensual and loving reunion, Hamish what can I say I loved him he is just so close to perfect in looks and personality. Another awesome story from MS Campbell catching up with some of the other likely lords and their wives was fabulous and this is one that I highly recommend MS Campbell has a way with words that is magical. This one is witty, sensual and left me feeling so happy, a must read.
