No clue why I let ye carry on.” Until I tilted her to remove her pink padded outfit, and I saw her ma in her wee consternated expression. Old-me would’ve enjoyed telling him how Fitzroy wasn’t a surname, and I wasn’t ‘Mr’. I was Viscount Ashlaine, and Fitzroy was the name of the earldom my father held, the one I was heir to. But I had another objective.

Perhaps it was finishing university and almost being free that explained why my body had gone haywire. I was pent-up with energy. Hungry. Itching for…something. Initially published on the Kindle platform, this would first arrive in 2020 on the 15th of October to much acclaim. Setting up the fifth book in the ongoing ‘Wild Scots’ series of novels, it would feature its own steamy romances and stand-alone story. Following on thematically, the books featuring powerful Scottish men in passionate romances, and this book is no different. By the time my shift ended, I was climbing the walls with boredom. I took my laptop to a table and watched the skies darken as a storm rolled in. Pretty good? I’d beaten my personal best and was favourite in the final. He’d come fourth in his event, barely qualifying. I leaned around him. “Sorry, I have plans. Leo. Good to go now?” Omaha. Middle-of-nowhere Nebraska.” Her eyes widened, and she froze. “I’m drinking your coffee. Oh sh*t!”Something like that.” JJ had asked me out and had a habit of standing too close. I kind of liked him but I hated his over-competitive edge and how rude he could be about people. My mouth dried up. She was gorgeous. American, too, by her accent. I managed a nod, despite the fact her assumption wasn’t true at all, but no words came. Nothing to explain how my brother owned the place, or how I’d helped with the build and worked here on and off in my breaks from university. Over his shoulder, I caught sight of a group entering the bar—JJ, who was on my team, plus a few others from the snowboarding circuit. If they dragged me into their posse, I’d spend the night listening to bragging and one-upmanship. I didn’t hide my sigh. It had nothing to do with work and everything to do with my best friend coming to visit. We hadn’t seen each other in forever, and I missed him like crazy. I shouldn't be flirting with a strong willed lass. But Effie is good for my stubborn, unhappy sister, and spending time with her is no hardship when she sets my pulse racing. I can handle being tormented. I've survived worse.

Hand it over.” Bursting from my seat, I grabbed the paper and pen then scrawled my signature near the box by the man’s finger. Then practice some more on me. Grind, even. I don’t mind.” With one finger, he lifted my chin. “Don’t overthink it. Your kiss sends me wild. Try it again. That’s all we’re going to do, so take your time and make it good.”

The snowboarding party moved on, and I passed the cups to Leo before reaching for my bag and board. There’s a few strands from the previous books, as it builds upon the overall world, creating plenty of arcs for long-term readers. Featuring the McRae Clan as well, there’s plenty of recurring characters and cameos from a number of familiar faces. That being said, while it does cater to fans, it’s also accessible to newcomers, with its central story being stand-alone and self-contained. All I was sure about was that I had to walk into a market in a remote dusty village, undercover, and on reconnaissance. For what, I’d be told on the fly. I wasn’t clear what country we were heading for, and I couldn’t find out what the target soldier’s mission had been or why the army cared so much.
