My Thoughts:
This is a collection of two novellas which are related. They tell the stories of two American women, Kate and Evie, who are business partners and friends, who find love in Scotland with two hunky kilt-wearing Scots, Alec and Cameron. Their paths to love aren’t smooth, but they are definitely passionate.
Heart Tamer
Kate Hayes has kept in touch with her ex-husband’s sister, since their divorce nine years ago. They have maintained their friendship, and Kate, a designer, has even gifted Eileen with an original wedding dress. Kate has come to Scotland for the wedding, though Alec, her ex-husband isn’t aware of it. Their divorce and parting was bitter, and they haven’t spoken since. However, Kate, now has a special request to make of Alec.
Ten years ago, Kate and Alec fell madly in love and married quickly. Both are headstrong, aggressive personalities, which lead to many fights, but their love and passion kept them together. Then Alec’s younger brother died, and his whole focus became finding the people responsible and getting revenge. This quest consumed him, and even Kate was unable to deter him. When Kate couldn’t face his continual leaving and putting himself in danger, she gave him an ultimatum. Unfortunately, her gamble didn’t pay off and their marriage ended.
Now they are both older and wiser. They also instantly feel that electric attraction they’ve always had. Fate seems to be offering a second chance for them, but can they make it work? I felt this couple belonged together, and I really liked the way they didn’t hesitate to confess their feelings for each other right away. I hated to see their starting to fall in the same routine that was their downfall before, but ultimately, they were able to hold it together, and build a future together, this time forever.
Heart Hunter
Evie Parker has only been living half a life since her beloved husband died seven years ago. Now, perhaps she’s ready to live again. Her friend Kate is getting married, and is sending a mystery man to pick Evie up. Excited at the prospect, Evie opens the door to see Cameron Hunter, a notorious celebrity who is always in the tabloids. Without even giving him a chance, Evie writes him off, deciding immediately that he’s not the man she needs.
Cameron is taken aback at being dismissed, and even more determined to capture Evie’s interest. Before long, he succeeds, and has convinced Evie to spend two weeks in his company, just to have fun and enjoy Scotland. Cameron is much more than the shallow playboy the scandal sheets make him out to be. Soon he and Evie, begin a passionate affair, but can they overcome his family’s objections and maintain a love when they live an ocean apart?
Evie realizes that she’s falling in love, and with someone who only agreed to two weeks of fun. I was happy to see her finally letting go of the past. I like that she told Cameron her feelings, and I like that he didn’t panic, but stopped to consider his own life and feelings.
While both of these stories are short, light reads, they also deal with love that happens quickly and hits hard. They show the importance of talking, as opposed to running away. They also show that no matter how great the love, it won’t work unless you work at it. Reviewed by Blue
