Suffering the Scot
(Brotherhood of the Black Tartan #1)
by
Lady Jane Everard
cannot abide the new Earl of Hadley. The unmannered Scot is a menace to
genteel ladies everywhere, what with his booming laugh and swishing kilt
and endless supply of ‘ochs’ and ‘ayes.’ Jane wishes Lord Hadley would
behave as an earl should and adhere to English rules of polite conduct.
Andrew Langston, the new Earl of Hadley, knows that the English aristocracy think poorly of his lowly Scottish upbringing. This is hardly new. History is littered with the English assuming the worst about Scotland. By living up to their lowest expectations, he is simply fulfilling his civic duty as a Scotsman.
Jane sees Andrew as an unmannered eejit. Andrew considers Jane to be a haughty English lady. But, as the saying goes, . . . opposites attract.
And what if beneath his boisterous behavior and her chilly reserve, Andrew and Jane are not nearly as different as they suppose? Can Scotland and England reach a harmonious union at last?

My Review: 9/10
There is so much to love
about this book: unique and interesting characters, full of humanity and
potential. Things progress in a natural way. Relatable complicated
relationships. So much humor. Highly recommend. Can't wait to get my
hands on another!
