See You In Scotland

 

About the Book

When Eve Fenley’s dream research trip to Scotland is almost ruined by her brother’s dirt bike accident, she makes the terrifying choice to travel solo for the sake of her budding writing career. She has to prove to herself that she is brave enough, not only to be a traveler but also to be an author. On the plane she comes face-to-face with Jordan MacLeod—her brother’s best friend who she’s sworn to hate since his teasing made her stop writing in high school. The upended trip goes from bad to worse as she realizes her brother insisted that Jordan take his place on their trek through the Highlands. Her lifelong dream of Scotland has suddenly turned into a nightmare.

Fired, dumped, and forced to move home, Jordan is scrounging for any scrap of good in his seemingly worthless life. His guilt over the dirt bike accident pushes him to accept his friend’s offer of a free trip to the UK to chaperone the little sister who hates Jordan’s guts for some unknown reason. Anyone could see this would be an epic disaster, but he’s survived worse. As Jordan tries to tease his way through Eve’s unyielding defenses, the magic of Scotland turns everything upside down. Somewhere along the winding Highland roads and craggy peaks they discover that maybe that missing piece of their lives has been sitting right beside them, if only they can be brave enough to reach for it.

My Thoughts

This is a fun read set in a place I so dearly want to visit. This story is based on a lot of the author's personal adventures so it was really fun to read the silly scenes and it was all realistic and hilarious. The romance is sweet and I enjoyed it for the most part, I think it added to the plot. Near the end of the story I struggled a bit because I really don't like the non communication trope and it just was a bit absurd how a lot of it played out. I don't need a third act breakup in a love story. It is just often so unrealistic or over the top. So I did struggle with that. BUT I still enjoyed this book and I have thought of the funny scenes a few times since I finished reading it! I recommend if you want to go on a road trip to Scotland from your couch! 

Four Stars.
