Some Like it Scot was always going to be epic. Just from the title alone. And it was. An accident prone travel writer is inserted into an Edwardian experience on a Scottish estate, and you just know all sorts is set to go awry. But with Scottish heritage, Katie Campell is delighted with everything all she sees.

Katie soon runs into Graham whose family owns the estate but can’t afford to renovate it. And as apart of the agreement to rent the property to the Edwardian business, Graham has to step in and partner Katie because he’s the only one tall enough to still dwarf her six foot frame. But Graham and Katie live on opposite continents. How could this ever work?

As with many of Basham’s contemporary romance novels, thee’s a deft mix of misadventure but the story doesn’t lack depth. There’s still soul searching that inspires, and fantastic chemistry. Plus now seasoned at setting books outside of the US, Basham’s Scottish research is spot on.

For those who live contemporary romance with humor and depth, I highly recommend Some Like it Scot.

I received a copy of the audiobook (very well done) from the publisher via NetGalley. The views are my own.
