Anytime Highlanders in kilts with their Scottish brogues are the heroes in a Suzanne Enoch book, you are in for a delightful weekend read. The unusual arrangement between an English mother and Scottish father for the marriage of their three sons starts the Wild Wicked Highlanders series. With their father claiming to be on his ‘death’ bed and telling said three sons about a signed agreement with the estranged English mother for them to marry English women, you know you are in for a treat. Mom holds the purse string to the family funds.

Coll, the oldest son is suppose to marry Amelia-Rose but he balks at every turn trying to disgust and frighten her equally into breaking off the engagement. He even disappears for a few days. Niall, as the family peacemaker and youngest son, falls for Amelia-Rose from the beginning. He begins by filling in for his brother while Aiden, the middle brother, searches for Coll. He realizes he cannot live without her.

Amelia-Rose’s mother insists she marry a title. Thus, the arrangement to marry Coll, a viscount and heir. Amelia has had several marriage offers previously but none are titled gentlemen. And, she has been found to be a bit too outspoken. While Coll is missing Niall MacTaggert, the youngest son, makes sure to escort Amelia about town filling in for his brother. These two had an immediate connection that begins to grow quickly.

You will find witty conversation, multiple unplanned betrothals, a kidnapping, a possible groom held against his will. All of this leads to a sweet HEA through Gretna Green. Under all of this confusion is the separation of Coll, Aiden and Niall’s parents. Their mother was lonely in the highlands, their father disliked London. Although you get glimpses of what caused their separation all those years ago, you cannot help but feel there is more to their story. Their mother truly missed her sons. She disliked that their little sister did not get to be raised with them.

This is going to be another great Enoch series. I am looking forward to the next book.

Always the peacemaker, Niall, the Scottish hero here, plays a cat and mouse game trying to keep his stubborn, English hating, hard headed brother in line and a deal on the table that will secure his clan’s future and keep them all from starving. No one is more surprised than Niall, he’s fallen for the very English Rose who has been hand picked for his oldest sibling, Coll, the future Laird.

Niall might know his way around the local lasses back home, which I admittedly winced very time that fact was mentioned, but he also knows when to fight and not back down, especially when he’s fighting for love. Once he got over his reservations, he was in it to win it and wouldn’t be swayed. His always trying to see both sides, willing to compromise mindset paid off here. Along with his backup plan: use your fists and do what you got to do.

Coll and Aden will likely eventually get their own HEAs. The author will have her work cut out for her with those two knuckleheads. Coll is super stubborn and Aden is good at cutting and running to avoid fallout. Both also have to find an English bride in the very near future and have past womanizing reputations.

Amelia-Rose had a often hidden streak of sassiness that was usually quickly suppressed by her family. I don’t blame her for questioning Niall’s intentions considering what his family put her through. It didn’t help Coll was an unbelievable jerk most of the time. She does have spirit and great back and forth banter with Niall that made them a perfect pair.

I’ll definitely be keeping my eye out for future sequels in this series. Though I’m not usually a fan of love stories that take most of the book for the couple to be together, her writing and unfolding plot kept me thoroughly engaged. I am nervous about delving into the two brother's history of loving and leaving too many willing lasses in the haystacks, barns, etc.

Title: It’s Getting Scot in Here, Series: Wild Wicked Highlanders (Book 1), Author: Suzanne Enoch, Pages: 352, stand-alone but part of a series, a couple of smexy scenes late in the book, peacemaker/good guy Scot hero, loves London society heroine, relationship angst, fights to get the girl hero.

Amelia-Rose Baxter must secure a husband during her second London season in order to please her overbearing, social climbing mother. The ladies of her time period have little choice but to marry well or face the dreaded spinsterhood. Amelia-Rose knows how she is supposed to behave, but her sharp mind and even sharper tongue cause much consternation for high society young women are not allowed such liberties. Entered in to a possible engagement with a wild, rough, barbarian Highlander who has been forced by his English mother to wed or lose the family’s ancestral home, Amelia-Rose is not sure what is worse: marry a dull, insipid or even elderly titled man or a Scot who has little use for her other than securing his heritage.

Three Scottish brothers descend on their mother’s London house under duress intending to be as belligerent and resistant as possible. After all, Lady Aldriss has not seen her sons in seventeen years so why should they care about her desires. The youngest, Niall MacTaggert, is the peacemaker of the family and spends much time with Amelia-Rose after a disastrous first meeting with the eldest brother, Coll, whom she is supposed to marry. As they become acquainted, it is clear that Niall has more than a brother-in-law to be feelings for Amy, as she likes to be called, and she begins to feel much for him. The brothers all plan to high tail it back to Scotland and leave their hapless brides behind, but much changes for Niall once he decides this beautiful English rose is for him. They have a lot of obstacles to overcome in order to be together, but the Scots are known for their canniness so Niall accepts the challenge.

Women had few choices about their own happiness especially for those under twenty-one like Amelia-Rose so they had to be smarter than their oppressors. For the MacTaggert brothers, losing their family home and lands was to be avoided at all costs. So both sides have much to gain or lose depending on the outcome.

I thoroughly enjoyed this historical romance. Ms. Enoch’s cleverly crafted tale is witty, well-paced, engaging, and I think, a good representation of the marriage game in that time period. This story is first in a series called The Wild Wicked Highlanders. I look forward to seeing how the next brother and the woman who catches his interest will fair in book two.

I absolutely loved, It's Getting Scot In Here. It perfectly set up this series and left me wanting so much more.

If you have never fallen in love with a highlander, you will once you've finished this book!  I blushed, I sighed, I swooned...it was a roller coaster of mushy emotions in my head as I plowed through this book in only a few hours.  I couldn't help but laugh at the banter between characters, and I adored the family introduced in this series.  It's the first book, which is always a happy time for me!  It means I have a lot of great reading to look forward to.

The last thing Niall MacTaggert and his two elder brothers want to do is leave their home in the highlands and come to a city full of dandies and cold-blooded women - London.  But when their long-estranged mother calls them home so they can fulfill a marriage bargain made when they were still children, Niall and his brothers have no choice but to oblige her.  Although Niall's eldest brother, Coll, agrees to be the one to marry whomever their mother chose, Niall has a difficult time accepting it when he meets Coll's intended, Amelia-Rose Baxter.  She is everything he never knew he wanted, and now he must watch her marry his brother.  Unless things turn in his favor..and with Scotsmen, you never know what will happen next.  

I loved, loved, loved Niall!  Everything about his personality made me excited to read more and root for him to the very end.  He was quick to make people laugh, kind to his sister, and stood up for Amelia-Rose against even his own family.  Instead of making her feel rejected by his brother, he  took action to make her feel wanted and welcome, and that spoke volumes about his character.  Although he claimed his actions were partly due to the marriage bargain, it was clear that his feelings for her drove him to treat with her with such respect and affection.  Amelia-Rose was a delight to read, especially when her true personality shone through.  At times she was apologetic and tried to mask her inner self, but with Niall, she was able to be herself without worry of judgment or ridicule. 

The secondary characters were equally engaging, as Suzanne Enoch gave insight into each other their personalities.  Even Amelia-Rose's companion, Jane, had a large role, and I was able to get a good understanding of who she was.   Niall's sister, Eloise, and her fiance, Matthew, were portrayed very well, for the little amount of page time they received, and I kept thinking to myself - they deserve their own book.  They're adorable together!

I am eager to see where this series goes next!  Any of the options sound amazing.

Great book. A bit slow paced at times but I really enjoyed it. These brothers are such a handful. I can't wait to see what happens next.

When Amelia-Rose Baxter and Niall MacTaggert met I was sure I knew where this story was going and how it would get there. Well it seemed to get there half way through the book and then it took a sharp left turn. After that it took another turn and then another before Amelia and Niall finally get their HEA. An interesting and convoluted plot with two likable characters that kept me reading. A great start to a new series.

Niall and Amelia-Rose were a perfect match. I loved their banter and watching Amelia-Rose come out of her shell. She blossomed under Niall’s protectively nurturing personality. He was a fixer and it was rather cute how much he tried to help her, and his family, while ignoring his own needs and wants, but where there’s a will...there’s always a way!

This is the first book to a new series and I think it’s off to a good start! Of course, a sexy Scot is always a good thing and we are introduced to three brawny ones, so there’s plenty of potential stories! ;p Niall and Amelia’s romance was quick, cute, and had some heat, and I liked how they connected. Overall, the plot had a few predictable moments and I thought the characters were great! The story was funny enough to keep me entertained and had just enough drama to keep the momentum rolling.

I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced reader copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

On to the important stuff! This is my favorite Suzanne Enoch book yet. I love everything about it. (To be fair, I haven't read every single book from her back-cannon) Hands down, favorite that I've read so far. The story is completely swoon worthy. The sweet parts were just the right amount of tender to make me sigh, but not so much that I rolled my eyes. The characters' antics kept me chuckling throughout the story.

Niall is an amazing hero. He is all gallant and self sacrifice, humor and charm, protection and support. I adored him. And Amy! Ah! I love her so much! She strives so hard to please her over-bearing mother, but this girl has her limits.

The side characters in this story are just as cool as the main ones. I loved Amy's companion, Niall's siblings, and even the MacTaggart Momma. I am very excited about this series. I fell hard for the whole MacTaggart family.

This is the first of a new historical series by Suzanne Enoch. I loved the plot line of this series and there was a lot of humor. 3 Scots who have to find English brides and they are brothers. I did have a problem with the mother leaving them when they were just young kids and staying away for 17 years. Do not see how the sons can forgive that.

It's Betting Scot in Here is probably one of my favorite books from Suzanne Enoch. I love watching the love interest grown between Niall and Amelia-Rose. I liked Amelia-Rose, but Niall was a bit too nice--but not so much that I disliked his character. I am curious to see where the next book leads. I did not like Coll AT ALL! I am hoping he is not the main character in the next book. If you are looking for a true romance with just a little bit of steamy love, then this is the book for you!

I had been looking forward to this book for quite some time, and for the most part, it did not disappoint.

Niall MacTaggert and his brothers must wed women of their mother’s choosing if they hope to retain their estate. Niall’s eldest brother refuses to woo the first lady chosen, Miss Amelia-Rose Baxter, so Niall steps in to take his place. Amelia-Rose is horrified to be almost betrothed to a Highlander, but then she begins to spend time with Niall. Each soon realizes they have found something they weren’t expecting.

I gave this 4 stars because the first 60 or so percent of the book was a 5 star read, and the remaining 40 percent was more of a 3 star read. I loved everything that happened in the beginning and found myself having trouble putting the book down. The second part of the book was less engaging, but I still found it hard to put down. If the first part of the book hadn’t been so good, the second part would’ve been higher.

Even from the beginning, it’s almost impossible not to like Niall because he was always putting everyone before himself, even if only to keep the peace. I didn’t feel like that took away from Niall being a badass Highlander, however, and enjoyed that side of him too. Minus her name, which is godawful, I really liked Amelia-Rose too. I found her struggle to remain a dutiful daughter despite it going against everything she was as a person to be fascinating.

I honestly liked Aden the best of the three brothers and thought Coll was almost too much of a jerk but I look forward to his redemption. I cannot wait to read Aden’s story, however!

One of the MacTaggert brothers must marry according to an agreement made between their parents when the boys were young...when their mother took their sister and left.
Coll lost the toss and the three reluctantly set off for London, raising havoc on their arrival.
Amelia-Rose Baxter was any happier as the bride to be...after she met him. Trying hard to be meek and obedient is not her nature, but under her mother's threats..what choice did she have.
While Coll insults her and tries hard to get her to break the agreement, (she hasn't any choice in the matter) his brother Niall fumes at her mistreatment.
When she finally tells Coll, she isn't about to have the type of marriage he's interested in, he walks off, and her mother contracts marriage with another and Niall is determined she will be HIS.
There is humor, subterfuge, sultry scenes and family interference...and a happy ever after for the couple.
I enjoyed reading this ARC from NetGalley very much and look forward to seeing the other brothers find their loves. If you like historical romances, this is a must grab.

I'm happy that there is a new series from Suzanne Enoch. The premise is interesting with three sons being coerced into a reunion with their mother, who abandoned them, taking only their sister with her, for a life back in London.
I know more will be unveiled, but I am having a hard time seeing how the boys will be forgiving of their mother's leaving. Seventeen years is a long time to stay away from your sons just to give your daughter a civilized life.
Onto the romance between Amelia-Rose Baxter, whose parents dream is for her to marry for a title, and the youngest MacTaggert son, rugged Highlander Niall.
This was a romance that blossomed quickly and you knew Naill was going to see things through to win a life with the willful, Amelia-Rose. I loved these two together and I enjoyed that they were determined to be together no matter what it who stood between them. I look forward to the next book in the series.

“Wickedly seductive” is one way to describe this novel, it is also witty, entertaining and exciting. “It’s Getting Scot in Here” is an amazing start to an addictive new series and if there is one writer who knows how to write witty and sexy highland heroes, it is Suzanne Enoch.

In order to honour the promise that their Scottish father gave their English mother many many years ago, the MacTaggert brothers find themselves going to London to each find a English bride. Considering that these three brothers have never set foot south of the border and spend their days farming and living the rough life of a highlander, you can just imagine the fun that awaits you on the pages of this hilarious and yet highly seductive book.

It was the eldest brother Coll who had drawn the straw and was to be wedded to the bride of their mother’s choice, but Amelia-Rose Baxter is not the timid, biddable English rose that the brothers had imagined and hoped to find. Instead they find an independent and smart young lady who isn’t afraid to speak her mind. Niall, the youngest MacTaggert finds himself as the peacemaker who is trying desperately to show Coll in the best light possible. With the fear of loosing their father’s estate if they don’t keep their promise to their mother, the stakes are high and they need to get on with marrying as soon as possible.

While Amelia-Rose May be the exact opposite of what Coll is looking for in a bride, it seems that Niall has found his match. But with no title to offer can he really find his happily ever after?

Absolutely loved this book! Suzanne Enoch continues to mesmerize!!!

I guess I need to read more Suzanne Enoch!

Amelia-Rose (Amy) and Niall are an extremely sweet couple, and their relationship is built on understanding, compromise, and active consent. Enoch brilliantly navigates a rather difficult trope (woman set to marry one man falls in love with his brother) and avoids the common pitfalls associated with it (there isn’t even a hint of disloyalty). And despite the fact that this was set almost entirely in London, it never lost its Highlander side. I also really appreciated this beginning of what is sure to be a series-long arc of familial bonding. I do wonder if Eloise will get her own book—if so, I understand her sparing appearances in this one. If not, that’s regrettable, because she is a delight.

All in all, a sweet, fun historical romance and the beginning of a series I will look forward to in the coming years.

I have read some of Ms. Enoch's novels and I enjoyed this one as well. Lady Amelia-Rose Baxter puts on a facade to society, when she really is outspoken and enjoys reading. Her parents agree to a betrothal to Coll MacTaggert, a Highlander. Amelia-Rose enjoys London and has no plans on leaving. However, she feels she must obey her parents. Things change when she meets Niall MacTaggert, her supposed betrothed's brother. Niall and his brothers are forced to return to London based a document signed by both their parents. I did like the backstory and how it is incorporated into this story. It gives another perspective to it. Niall is stubborn, tall, shears sheep, gets into fights....in other words a Highlander that does not want to be in London. He is immediately interested in Amelia-Rose. As they spend time together, feelings between them grow, but with her being betrothed to his brother as well saving the Scottish estate, and her parents wanting her to have a title, their relationship seems hopeless. Amelia-Rose needs to decide what she wants, to which Niall gives her a choice...the only one who asks her what she wants. A great read for a new series! I cannot wait to read the next novel!

4-4.5 stars

This is the first book I’ve read by this author, and I am now a fan! I really enjoyed this book. I loved the main characters, I loved the relationship among the brothers, and I loved their sister and mother. Whatvreally set this book apart for me was the vividness of the supporting cast (so to speak). The characters were well-developed and memorable, and I wanted to learn more about almost all of them (okay, not Amelia-Rose’s mother, who is awful). I’m excited to read Coll’s and Aden’s books, and dare I hope Jane gets her happy ending?

Thanks to Netgalley for the eARC. All opinions are my own.

Another great Enoch read! Thoroughly enjoyed the characters and setting. Looking forward to the other two brothers' stories, maybe more on the sister and I'd love to have a bit of a happy ending for the parents to! This will be ordered for the store for sure.

Oh, you're going to love this! It's Getting Scot In Here by Suzanne Enoch is a fantastic historical romance. Ms. Enoch has presented us with a book that is well-written and populated with characters that are outstanding. Lady Aldriss has summoned her three sons to London from their home in the Highlands. Or maybe you'd say blackmailed them. They must find English brides before their younger sister marries. Amelia-Rose has been tasked with marrying the eldest McTaggart brother. He disappears for days within minutes of their first meeting leaving his brother Niall to fill in and make excuses for him. Amelia and Niall's story is loaded with drama, humor, action and steamy sexy bits. This story captured me on the first page and didn't set me free until the end. I loved reading It's Getting Scot In Here and can't wait for the next book. It's Getting Scot In Here is book 1 of the Wild Wicked Highlanders but can be read as a standalone. This is a complete book, not a cliff-hanger.
