Heartthrob Series Boxed Set Volumes 3 and 4

Romantic Scottish weddings... Heartthrob’s Scottish Weddings is a great pairing of second chance romances for two best friends. Kate and Evie are fashion designers that partner in an exclusive bridal boutique in NYC. Both are looking for love and a future, their goals are vastly different however. Both have known the joys of love and marriage as well as the heartbreak when it doesn’t last, one because of a divorce, the other because of death. There must be something magical in a Scottish wedding because these two are about to find more than they bargained for. In Heart Tamer, (Heartthrob series, book 3) Kate Hayes travels to Scotland to attend her ex-sister-in-law’s wedding. She has an ulterior motive though. She has a proposition for her ex-husband, Alec MacLeod, one that has Alec shocked but totally on board. While their marriage may have ended, their love for each other never has. There might be a decade of separation between these two, but the heat is as sizzling as ever. Their tempers are fiery and the two butt heads regularly, but thankfully the years have given them both a chance to grow up and learn to deal. For such a short piece, you got a real good sense of who Katie and Alec are. Katie is going to have to come to terms with Alec’s alpha male bullheadedness. Alec definitely has to learn to deal with an independent, feisty and stubborn cuss of a woman. These two are perfect for each other. In Heart Hunter (Heartthrob series, book 4) Evangeline Parker travels to Scotland to attend Kate and Alec’s wedding where she has been promised a date for the festivities. Cameron “Heartbreak” Hunter, whisky tycoon bad boy shows up to escort Evie to the wedding and the sparks start to fly. Evie, a widow of seven years is looking for marriage and kids, not a playboy tycoon. What could her best friend have been thinking to pair her with him? When Cameron proposes two weeks of erotic pleasure… nothing more, nothing less… Evie is shocked. She is also intrigued. When Evie discovers Cameron isn’t her intended date, she’s relieved… or is she? Things get a bit wild and out of hand. Evie learns first hand just how the paparazzi can paint a situation to their own liking. Perhaps her opinion of Cameron has been a little skewed by how he’s been portrayed. Cameron has his own set of challenges in a matrimonial pushing mother, a manipulative gold digger ex and a stern grandfather that’s had enough of the tabloids. But, when the Laird says marry or else, what’s a man to do? Both novellas were fun and well written. The pacing was tight and quick. I really enjoyed watching these couples interact. Ms. Knightly definitely brought the heat. If you’re looking for feisty independent heroines and the men that can most assuredly keep them then look no further. This collection is a great read.

Heartthrob Series Scottish Weddings Box Set by Sophia Knightly Reviewed for Candid Book Reviews Sophia Knightly is a writer that I have read consistently throughout the years. When I think of her books I see alpha male characters with tough exteriors that are tender and loving when they need to be. Falling in love with any story she writes is not that hard to do. Each story is a whirlwind of fun, emotion, and sex appeal. Her Heartthrob Series does not disappoint in that regard. Alec and Cameron are overpowering personalities but are tamed by the right women. Kate and Evangeline are strong minded women who know what they want and have no problems seeking it out. Entertaining stories with strong characters are Ms. Knightly's specialty.
