Suzanne Enoch: The devil wears kilts

Suzanne Enochin historiallisessa viihderomaanissa on skotti-eksotiikkaa mausteena, mutta muuten kirja ei sisällöltään poikkea lajityypistään: The devil wears kilts (St. Martin's Paperbacks, 2014; ISBN 978-1-250-04160-9).



Teos aloittaa Scandalous Highlanders -kirjasarjan johon kuuluu neljä romaania.



On a mission to rescue his runaway sister from the lure of flowery compliments and a useless lot of satin-clad scalawags disguised by their snooty titles, Ranulf MacLawry, Marquis of Glengask, has roared into British society like a storm across the Highlands. But he's about to find out that satin has its appeal, especially when it covers the curves of Miss Lady Charlotte Hanover - whose tongue is as sharp as her skin is soft.

Lady Charlotte Hanover has had her fill of hot-headed men, having lost her fiance in an utterly unnecessary duel. When did brawn ever triumph over brains? And yet there is something solid and appealing about the brash Highlander who's as dangerous in the ballroom as in battle. Sometimes bigger really is better.
