surprise! the scotsman who save me isn't a highland romance. it doesn't even take place in england. instead it's set on the american frontier. where a group of scottish brothers have set up a virtual fortress that allows them to protect the young woman and child they just saved from a brutally violent attack on their home.
when emily stanton first meets iain macenroy she's so relieved to see a friendly face that she is finally able to pass out from blood loss. holding her in his arms, iain isn't sure how he feels about this english woman who represents everything that forced them to leave scotland behind. he knows she's their social better. he hates that she's one of the gentry but can't keep away either.
all emily feels is guilt that she's wrapped the macenroy family in her troubles. once she realizes that she can trust them with her entire truth she lets them help her. even though she frets the entire time about the added danger they are accepting into their lives by welcoming her into their home. iain wouldn't have it any other way. even as iain struggles with his own prejudices, his heart knows that emily is the one for him. and she is equally smitten.
there were a couple of scenes that were repetitive, but i think i had access to a way early version of the manuscript that still needed some polishing. errors and all, i think this one was a solid story worth reading.
