The last book in A No Ordinary Hero novel entitled A Devil in Scotland, penned by Suzanne Enoch, and published under the St. Martin’s Press imprint. Bring us the story of Callum MacCreath who in 1806 tries to stop the marriage of his childhood Rebecca to his older brother. With one misstep, Ian banishes him, by then Callum was happy to leave Scotland forever. But before he left he left a warning to his brother that to keep his enemy close.
Now in 1816, Callum learns that his brother regarded his warning a little too late. Now Callum finds himself back in Scotland to keep his promise to his brother and the leader of the Maxwell clan who Callum knows murdered his brother.
Sparks again fly when Callum reunites with Rebecca. And with his return, he must keep not only Rebecca safe but his brother daughter as well.

I read one other title in this series, besides this one, and didn’t enjoy it the novel as much as I did A Devil in Scotland. A Devil in Scotland lied more heavenly on the drama which I really enjoy when it comes to Historical Romance. With a well-developed plot and enjoyable characters. A Devil in Scotland is one novel you should add to your reading shelf.

True to all the Scottish romance suspense novels out there this measures up! What an amazing story of highlands romance, corruption and greed. Second chance romance kinda. Adorable 6 year old, waya a wolf and a mop of a dog named reginald. Mags stole every scene she was in! This is a very good Scottish romance novel, right down to the talk and it's traditions. Throw in a unique story and a near perfect read! A little slow in the very beginning but things pick up quickly and soon your submerged in the highlands and these characters! Great read and a new author to follow!

This is the third and final book in the “No Ordinary Hero” series after “Hero in the Highlands” and “My One True Highlander” which I read and enjoyed thoroughly earlier this year.

When he learns that Ian, laird MacCreath, and his father-in-law George Sanderson had died mysteriously within a fortnight of each other almost a year ago, Callum MacCreath knows it is time to return to his native Scotland to find the chief of the clan, the duke of Dunncraigh and kill him.

Ten years earlier, when Callum was a rake of only 20, he tried to warn Ian of the unfaithful motivations of the chief of clan Maxwell, a cruel man hungry for wealth and power. Instead, Ian not only ignored his little brother’s warnings but he also got himself betrothed to George Sanderson’s daughter Rebecca, the girl Callum grew up with, his one and only love. Rebecca at 18 agrees to marry Ian, for he offers comfort and safety while Callum means uncertainty and adventure. When Callum tries to make her change her mind but she rejects him and Ian bans him from his lands and denies him as a brother. Before sailing to America Callum’s final words to Ian are of warning about the dangers afoot, and he promises that should he die for his dealings with Dunncraigh, he will return and avenge him.

Twenty years later and after a year of mourning, Rebecca and her little daughter Margaret, meet Callum, the new man, wealthy and hardworking. The Callum she once knew is no more, and this new man, now laird MacCreath, is willing to risk everything including his own life, to protect them, grant them safety and, in the meantime, kill his nemesis.

I love Suzanne Enoch’s books. Having read several of them I find that the “No Ordinary Hero” trilogy is my favorite of her series and the final book didn’t disappoint at all, although honestly I have to say that it is my least favorite of the trilogy. The problem, in my personal opinion, is that the story focuses so clearly on the mystery/detective story side rather than on Becca’s and Callum’s romance. The antagonism turned romance is well developed and it is beautiful indeed, but we don’t get to read as much of that as of the clan’s politics, the revenge and the motivations, the dealings with the past, the anger and the regret. This is not necessarily a bad thing, those feelings and dealings needed to be there, but I would have liked that both aspects of the novel (the whodunit and why, and the romance) had been more balance, more of a 50/50 so to speak.

Having said that, I loved the way Callum and Becca learn to build a new trust between them. This is what they needed in the end. But I loved even more the natural way they become a family themselves and little Mags. And Mags was my favorite character, her and her acceptance of Callum right from the start. They become a pack of wolves the minute they meet, and pack is a metaphor for family, love and protection.

Although I said that "A Devil in Scotland" is my least favorite of the trilogy, to be fair and completely honest, I must say that the expectations were very high, so high that it was not easy at all that the book would meet them. But in the end I liked the book very much; I liked it more than most of Enoch’s earlier books, still not as much as the first two books of “No Ordinary Hero”, but that is ok.

💋💋💋
I’ve not read any of Suzanne’s work before , but after this I fully intend to carry on .
The Devil In Scotland is a brilliant piece of writing that from the first keeps you turning those pages .
I finished it in about 6 hours and barely left it , except for the school run and that was under duress lol 😆.
I recommend this to all Fans of romance, throughly enjoyable.

I received a copy of this book from Netgalley, and I chose to submit a review.

The Duke of Dunncraigh has been the villain in each of the books in this series, No Ordinary Hero, but in "A Devil" in Scotland the Duke outdoes himself in his wickedness. When Callum learns of his brother Ian's death, he returns to Scotland to avenge what he is positive was not an accident but rather murder. Suddenly, however, he finds himself facing his brother's widow, Rebecca, who was Callum's childhood friend. While sparks fly between Callum and Rebecca, the Duke of Dunncraigh and his son are plotting ways to ensure that nothing gets in the way of their plans to become shipping magnates, especially not Callum and Rebecca.

There is plenty of tension, action, danger, and romance in "A Devil in Scotland" which makes for a thrilling and exciting read. Suzanne Enoch writes great romance novels and I look forward to her next series.

Suzanne Enoch doesn't fail to please and I really enjoyed her latest romance set in Scotland. Very sexy, very romantic and I just love brawny Highlanders.

I received this book from NetGalley in exchange for a fair review. This is the third in the No Ordinary Hero series but can be read as a stand alone. I will say however, characters from the previous two books are mentioned enough times to peak your curiosity.
I requested this book for: 1) THE GORGEOUS COVER and 2) THE AUTHOR. I never did read the description until I started to read the book. The book is about Callum MacCreath who returns after the death of his older brother Ian, and begins to woes Rebecca; Ian's widow. I ALMOST ALWAYS have a problem with the "woe the brother's widow" trope and yet Suzanne Enoch did a wonderful job. It never felt weird to me as I was reading the book. I enjoyed how Enoch explained an old Scottish law that allowed for brothers to marry the widow in order to keep power and money in the family.
I loved the couple of Rebecca and Callum and the banter between the two was wonderful. The two of them work together to find out who killed Ian. As the two work towards the end, the relationship intensifies and they become equals.
This was a wonderful book about romance with steamy sex scenes. I loved it!!!!

another fantastic historical romance by Ms. Enoch. Good solid plot with a good romance.

2/5
*Recieved a review copy in exchange for an honest review.

I dnf'd a little over halfway through. I just lost interest becuase it felt rather drawn out. I simply didn't connect to the characters. I was really intrigues by the setting and the plot was interesting but the execution was lacking for me.

I always love a Suzanne Enoch book. A Devil in Scotland is the best of her No Ordinary Hero series with a great heroine and hero.

Unusual and different romance about two brothers and the woman they love also about love and betrayal!

This story set in the Highlands of Scotland is both a story of second chances at love as well as one of personal redemption. I enjoyed the tale and found it to be an easy read. I received an arc for my honest opinion.

3.5*
In general, I really liked this book. It's a likeable read with a refreshing plot. Callum makes a great alpha hero, a man not afraid to throw another out the window over disrespect. I liked Rebecca well enough, though I didn't find her to be a stellar character. My reason for the lower score is largely due to the indecisiveness between the main characters. They constantly dwelt on who the bad guy was and how to handle him. This became tiresome and I felt inclined to start skimming the pages.

My thanks to St. Martin's Press for the pleasure of reading and reviewing A Devil in Scotland by Susan Enoch.

Hero was really obnoxious until far too late, and the whole came back from America with a wolf bit was ridiculous.

This book was amazing. I read the whole thing in about two hours because I literally could not put it down.

The characters were a delight and I loved the way their relationship built. The trust they were able to reconstruct after years apart was so strong. Their relationship was believable and realistic in depth.

Seriously, I loved it...I love it so much.

Outlanders fans will like this lightened romance between a sassanach and a hot scot. Callum MacCreath was the ultimate Scot roaming the wilds of his homeland, getting drunk, bagging the lassies. His childhood companion, Rebecca, was always at his side even when it was quite unladylike. Iam MacCreath was not so lucky in his destiny. He was the serious, responsible brother who had a clan and estate to oversee. Things turn upside down for Callum when everyone tires of his antics, and his brother takes Rebecca as his bride. Callum is shocked serious and fights for his companion who he realized at that moment that it was more than friendship. Ian has to take matters into his own hands and excommunicates Callum from their lands and clan. Callum must venture away from all that he knows and decide if he wants to be the joke that everyone thinks him, or if he wants to grow into a man that could be respected.

This reviewer is just not into romantic reads where the heroine is intimate with her husband's brother, even after his death, especially when she has had a child with one of them. Nor do I find a blatant manho hero appealing. For that reason, I'll leave lengthy reviews for others who this does not bother.

I have read the previous two books in this series. Book 2, My One True Highlander, was my favorite. Book 1, Hero in the Highlands, was only a 3 star read for me.

(I received a free advanced reader copy provided via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. No type of compensation was given to this reviewer. There is no relationship or affiliation between the reviewer and the author/publisher.)

A Devil in Scotland: A No Ordinary Hero Novel ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
by Susan Enoch

The dawning of desire
1806, Scotland. Wild, reckless Callum MacCreath is in no hurry to become someone’s husband. But when his responsible, steady older brother Ian announces his engagement to their childhood friend Rebecca, Callum makes a startling discovery: he wants the lovely young lass for himself. But it’s too late, and when Ian banishes him for his duplicity, Callum is only too happy to leave Scotland forever.
…is delicious and dangerous 
1816: Marrying Ian was the practical, logical thing for Becca to do. But once Callum sailed away to America, she missed his rakish charm and lust for life. Now Becca is a widow when a much-changed Callum returns to his Scottish homeland. Will he remember their spirited, fiery connection or does he blame her for his brother’s unexpected death? This time neither of them can deny their scorching attraction. But will their hearts be burned in the blazing heat of scandal?

Book 3 in the ‘No Ordinary Hero’ was my introduction to the series however, it can be read separately as a standalone story. I enjoyed this book so much I immediately purchased the other 2 in the series.

I received this book for free in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review. Thank you NetGalley!

A Devil in Scotland by Suzanne Enoch

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I always try to be upfront about my dislike of a certain trope (in this case second chance romance) and while this is technically not a second chance romance, the H/h still had a history. That being said, I thoroughly enjoyed this title anyway.

Callum MacCreath is immature and irresponsible. He has no plans beyond getting his next drink and it stunned to find it his brother is planning to marry his childhood friend, Rebecca. In a case of not realizing what he's got until its gone, Callum leaves Scotland for ten years.

Rebecca knows she made the right choice when she married Callum's brother, Ian, instead of Callum but she still misses Callum terribly while he's away. She is surprised but secretly glad when Callum returns after being away for so long. They begin working together to unravel the mystery surrounding Ian's death.

I highly enjoyed this title and had trouble putting it down. I couldn't wait to find the next clue about what really happened to Ian and that kept me reading probably more than anything. A lot happened in the novel, and I enjoyed almost every minute of it. I liked both Callum and Rebecca, though I thought Callum could be overbearing at times. Rebecca was an intelligent heroine throughout without having any TSTL moments.

I did feel like the romance itself was a bit tepid even with a few love scenes. Perhaps it was because of their history but there just wasn't much heat between Callum and Rebecca. I still found the love story believable (perhaps more so because of the lack of heat). I really enjoyed the fact that there wasn't a lot of "if only" from either character.

The major issue I had with this title was the use of "I reckon" over and over again. It was enough to drive me crazy but the story still managed to overshadow even that.

Callum and Rebecca learn to forgive,trust and uncover evidence of her husband and fathers murderer. And while they are doing all this they manage to keep a sense of humor and fall in love. Good book
