How the Scot Was Won: A Desperately Seeking Duke novella

*** A high energy romping good story ***' What a great story running alone the same timeline as "A Scot to the Heart". This is about Drew's sister Agnes and his childhood friend Felix. A wild romantic ride in the lives of Agnes and Felix. Many emotions, feelings and misunderstood words and actions lead Agnes and Felix in an up, down and all around each other romance. As this intersects certain points of "A Scot to the Heart" I highly recommend you read that first. Do not skip this high energy, romping good story. You will not be disappointed. I received an Advanced Readers Copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review. Reasons I enjoyed this book: Action-packed Entertaining Page-turner Romantic Steamy Unpredictable Wonderful characters

An entertaining romance that runs concurrently with A Scot to the Heart, Agnes St. James has been attracted to Felix Duncan ever since she was a young girl. He is her brother's best friend and when their world imploded, Felix was there to give her brother Andrew his support. Years later, the paths in their lives keep crossing and Felix is totally smitten by Agnes. After an unfortunate incident, where they both made mistakes, they found it difficult to even look at each other. However, with her brother's impending inheritance, Felix and Agnes are once again thrown together and it takes a maze to force them to talk to one another again. As events unfold in her brother's life, Agnes depends more and more on Felix, bringing them to a place where they recognize they cannot live without each other. I found this novel sweet with just the right amount of tension and anxiety to make the plot interesting and I was glad that the couple resolved their differences. Although part of a series this romance is a standalone and comes to a good conclusion. I received a copy of this book as a gift and this is my honest and voluntary review.

This is the story of Felix Duncan and Agnes St. James. We met Felix and Agnes in A Scot to the Heart. Felix is Drew’s (hero of A Scot to the Heart) best friend and Agnes is Drew’s sister. He renews his acquaintance with the St. James Family when Drew returns to town with unexpected news. Before long it was obvious that Felix and Agnes were attracted to each other. Then, after a night of fun at the Assembly Rooms (a bit of whiskey and time alone), everything changed. They didn’t speak; they wouldn’t even look at each other. Now everyone is trying to discover what happened. Well, it seems Felix isn’t as good at romance as he is at law. It wasn’t what he said to Agnes that broke her heart, but the way he said it. How is he supposed to fix the mess he’s made? This is a fun story. It puts most of the stress and drama of A Scot to the Heart in the background and lets the reader get to know Felix and Agnes better. He is a successful lawyer. She is independent and wishes to become a successful businesswoman. They have wonderful chemistry and are a fantastic pair. Even when they don’t think things and make mistakes, they still want to be together. A cute story with likeable characters. HEA? You bet. I enjoyed and recommend How the Scot Was Won. I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book.
