#AD Book Review: His Convenient Highland Wedding by Janice Preston

His Convenient Highland Wedding is published by M&B Historical and written by Janice Preston.   Set mostly in Victorian Scottish highlands and West Country, ,the poverty of Glasgow and Edinburgh are also touched upon. The Scottish Earl’s daughter, Flora McCrieff brought her family name into disrepute by turning down a suitor who is a Duke. A year later she is forced to marry Lachlan McNeil who is rich but no title. He wants to marry her for the status it will bring. She has to marry him as her family need his money. Their’s is a marriage of convenience.  His emotions remain locked away despite their growing attraction.

Although this novel is part of a series it it also a stand alone novel which didn’t appear finished as the sub plot surrounding the brooch was never really tied up. Apart from that it is a great read. The characters are vibrant and realistic. The imagery as the Scottish highlands are where the novel is set sound fantastic and the reader can almost see them. There is a sense of chemistry and friendship developing between the pair and her dog has a cameo role.

I received this novel from Mills & Boon via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review
