If you liked Outlander, this is a fairly good one until the next Diana Gabaldon comes out. Funny and sweet.

Many thanks to NetGalley, the publisher, and the author for my ARC. All opinions are my own.

Connall and his people live during ancient times. The Romans have come through and taken all their women and children. Connall has got to find a wife to keep the clan bloodlines going. His Druid as a solution. Connall must go into the future and pluck a wife from 2019 and bring her back. Ashley has a bit of a problem. Her ex-husband, who everyone loves, has divorced her and left her to pay his debts. No one is on her side. She has got to get a job and get out of site. So, what better thing to do than answer an ad on Craig's list to travel to the Highlands in Scotland to work for a native Scot. What she didn't realize she was signing up to do was travel back to 156AD to become his wife! This was an enjoyable read with a good job of depicting the ancient past. I could have done with a little more freaking out from Ashley because I am not sure I would fair very well travelling back to ancient Roman times.

This was a cute time travel romance with elements of Outlander. I liked this one a lot more than Outlander though.

What is a Highlander to do when he needs a wife? Well, the obvious answer is to use magic to travel to another time and find one. That’s the premise for this sweet, fun read. Connall’s clan needs him and he’s willing to do whatever it takes to give them a better future. Ashley is having a terrible time in her life. She’s been left with a lot of debt thanks to her ex-husband and she’s wishing she could get away from it all. And so begins the misunderstanding that has her going back in time for what she though was a job and turned out to be a marriage.

Angela Quarles is a new author for me. I was looking for a light-hearted read and, when I came across this book on Net Galley, I though I’d found just that. And I did. But, I also found a sweet love story, a bit of adventure, and characters who I fell in love with immediately. Ashley was smart and fierce. She adapted to her new world quickly but she also saw opportunities for change and she wasn’t willing to back down. Connall lives in a difficult time, a time where he needs to be brave and strong – and he is. But, lucky for us, he’s also sweet and caring. He’s so much more than just a hot Highlander! Once he discovers his feeling for Ashley, he’s willing to play by her rules in order to get her to fall in love with him as well. These two had great chemistry and wonderful banter. I loved how overcame their huge differences to ultimately understand each other’s priorities and ways of life.

I really enjoyed the level of detail the author included about the time period and, unlike some books I’ve read, it wasn’t overwhelming. She seems to know exactly how much the reader needs to feel like they’re experiencing the situation without overdoing the descriptions. Although this was my first book by Ms. Quarles it definitely won’t be my last. I look forward to seeing what other worlds she can take me to and what other characters I can fall in love with! If you haven’t read a book by this author, give this one a go…I’m sure you’ll be enchanted by it just as I was.

A funny and engrossing book that made me laugh and root for the characters.
I liked the storytelling, the well thought cast of characters and the world building.
A fun and fast read, highly recommended.
Many thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for this ARC, all opinions are mine.

This was a quick and enjoyable read for me. I read it all in one day because I very much enjoyed the story. I think this is one I will be reading again in the near future.

From the cover to the intriguing synopsis, Some Like it Plaid had me hooked from the very beginning and it didn’t disappoint at all. It’s my first time reading anything from Angela Quarles and it won’t be the last. She manages to transport the reader to a whole new time and it worked.

In the story we get to meet Ashley Miller, she has recently divorced and has struggled ever since to pay the debt that her ex-husband left her with. Her life has become chaotic and she doesn’t know what to do as she struggles to pay all that money. But that soon changes the minute she sees a Craigslist ad for an all-expense paid trip to Scotland in exchange for doing house work. Ashley quickly jumps at the change of getting out of her stressful life in San Francisco for the beautiful land of Scotland. It’s especially hard to say no to the mystery guy interviewing her for the job. They click right away and the way he expresses himself intrigues her. With that said, she sets off to Scotland, only to find herself back in time to 156 AD. She wanted a new start and she is about to get one full of potential dangers and one incredible romance that will have her questioning going back home.

After a tragedy struck his tribe, Connall as the chief’s oldest son, he is given the task of finding a wife in order to help grow the tribe. With very few marriageable women left in his tribe, his druid priest suggests for him to travel in time. With no idea where he is heading, Connell accepts and he is quickly transported to modern day San Francisco. He is amazed at how people live in the 21st century and is quickly told that in order to find what he is looking for is to post an ad on Craigslist and that’s exactly what he does. But it’s when he conducting interviews that he sets his eyes on Ashley and everything changes after that. He can see that she is outspoken and smart. This attracts him to her that most and thinks of it as an asset for the tribe. Little did he know that his future outspoken wife would end up changing his tribe forever.

I very much enjoyed reading this book! It was engaging and funny. The characters compliment each other very well and they are truly meant for one another. Connall is the overprotective alpha male that will do anything to protect Ashley yet she finds it a little hard to understand his ways when it comes to her and the tribe. His sole purpose is to get a wife and she is perfect for the job. On the other hand, Ashley wants to get away from her old life and will do anything in order to start a new life. As the characters struggle to navigate their new life together, there are things that they need to work on if they want a future. As I mentioned at the beginning, Angela Quarles did a great job describing the setting and the overall story. The ending will have you swooning for the characters and I would highly recommend checking it out. I cannot wait to read more from the author in the future. :)

**I voluntarily read an early copy of this title in exchange for an honest review**

Some Like it Plaid by Angela Quarles is the story of Connall and Ashley.
Ashley is stressed to no end with two jobs and trying to make things right after a awful husband. So when she happens to see a Craig List add for a paid trip to Scotland she is all in. But what ends up happening is that she is transported to the age old century highlands where she finds out she is being married to Connall a highlander. Ashley tries to fight the attraction between them and starts an up roar with her modern day attitude.
This was a funny read of course with Connall learning the modern day way and Ashley doing the same in his time frame. Loved this time travel romance!

Some Like It Plaid was such a fun book! I really liked the time-travel aspect of it. It goes back to the year 156 and I have not read a lot form that time period. I found it unique how everything they had on them changed appropriately according to the time period they were in. It was funny to follow Connall in modern day America and how he had to make sense of everything, his inner commentary is great.

Connall's tribe is left with few marriageable women after a raid, so his Druid priest decides to send him to another land and time to bring a wife back. He ends up in present day America. He makes friends with a homeless man that helps direct him to finding that needed wife. He places an ad on Craigslist and has a whole slew of women show up. But when he mets Ashley, he knows she is the one.

Ashley is busy working multiple jobs trying to pay off the debt her lousy ex-husband left her with. When she sees the ad on Craig's List for a job in Scotland, she jumps on it as she is ready for a change. What she doesn't realize is that what she thinks is a job, is really a marriage...which she learns upon her arrival to ancient Scotland. She didn't sign on for this and wants to go back home. But she learns form the Druid priest that she must wait almost a month and a half before they can even attempt to send her home.

Connall wants Ashley as his wife. Can he convince her to stay before she makes her way back home?

I really enjoyed Quarles latest time travel story. It goes back to the year 156, which is much earlier than most of the books I read, but it was a nice change of pace and the history lover in me really enjoyed learning more about that time period. I loved watching these too banter back and forth with one another. Ashley's first husband wasn't the best and she isn't about to go into a second marriage without making sure she as a say in what happens. This or course causes much drama along the way.

Connall has a younger brother and it was implied that he would also be going to the future to find a bride, so I'm hopeful that Quarles tells us his story. Regardless, I'm excited to see what she comes up with next!

Very interesting. It’s like a rom com version of outlander. Sort of. The few differences are he travels thru time to pick a wife. Oh that was uniquely fun to read. Then he picks a bride from a Craigslist’s ad. Ashley should have read the fine print. That’s what happens when a hunky scot distracts you. I really think Connall was a great character. He had personal growth and was really likable. Ashley on the other hand didn’t have as much growth until the very last minute. Her character was stuck on pasts grievances and her own self pitying. She wanted second century‘s beliefs and customs to fit her twenty first century thinking. I think more of a give and take was necessary. Once I was a few chapters in, the book flew by. It was over before I was ready. I do hope there is more to this series. This is the first thing I’ve read from this author, but I plan to check if she has more out there.

Some Like it Plaid by Angela Quarles is a unique love story between Ashley Miller, a present day women and a second century Scotland Highlander, Connall, a tribe leader. Angela answers a Craig's list ad, thinking she is going to Scotland, for a job. She just didn't realize she was going back in time. I found this book to be interesting and fun, and enjoyed the history as well. If your looking for something different in your romance reading, I highly recommend this one.

I reviewed a digital arc provided by NetGalley and Entangled Publishing, LLC, Thank you.

This is a voluntary review of an advanced copy.

A bit different take on the time travel romance, when Connall is sent to the future to find a bride when the women of his clan are kidnapped. It was great that the clan wealth in the past translated forward (I am guessing since a druid sent him and could add on the little things!) so that Connall was not penniless.

When Ashley went back to the past, she was able to transfer her use of Google into visions or sight so that she was able to navigate this strange world that she landed in.

This book feels like there were some ends not resolved so I am wondering if there are going to be more and another clan member will go looking for a wife for the next book and we will get more missing pieces added in each book. It seemed like it was kind of hinted that way when Ashley said she would help the next person so they didn't make the same mistakes as Connall! Glad that they were able to resolve their misunderstandings and get their HEA!

It is always fun to read someone else traveling back in time and choosing to stay but not sure I could handle all the changes and miss so many of the conveniences of this time!

I liked the premise to this book (I just love time travel romance) and I was sure I'd enjoy it greatly (like I did other time travel books by Ms. Quarles) but sadly there was this tiny, tiny thing that got in the way of me loving the book. And that thing was the hero's age. He was 21. I just couldn't get pass that. I don't like it when the main characters are barely out of their teens. It's my personal preference and if I knew beforehand the hero was so young I wouldn't have requested this book. So it's totally my fault for not enjoying the story and if you don't mind young h/H then it's more than likely you're gonna love this book because the story was great and the characters easy to root for. The time period the book was set in was also very interesting, 156 AD.
Despite my hang up on the hero's age this wasn't a bad book and Angela Quarles still has a big fan in me.

Angela Quarles is a new to me author and I'm loving every thing she has to offer her readers with this novel. I'm a big fan of Outlander, so the time travel aspect of this novel intrigued me. What I got from it, was a complete addictive surprise!

I loved Connall's character! He was definitely a hot Scot from a century long ago! I could picture him vividly and loved everything I saw. Seeing him travel to the future to seek a wife, was an exciting time. Watching Ashley as she went back in time with Connall, seeing her interact in a time period that didn't have the modern day luxuries was so fun, especially when she was vocal with what's on her mind and had the women learning new things. I loved seeing her and Connall interact with each and the sparks that flew between them was incredible!

Fans of Outlander will love this new twist on time travel and hot Scots. This is a fantastic page turner and the start of what's sure to be a hit series from a talented author! I can't wait to read more by Quarles, especially another Scot! Definitely recommending this with 4 stars and two thumbs to all my romance loving friends. Well done, Quarles. Well done.

*I received a complimentary copy of this book from NetGalley, Publisher and was under no obligation to post a review, positive or negative.*

Some Like it Plaid is a feel-good time travel romance! I love that most of the story takes place in another time, as we all wish we could escape the evil doings of our exes, right? This story is filled with laughter and romance, taking the reader on an adventure you won't want to end. I absolutely loved it and will definitely be on the lookout for future books by this author.

An interesting twist to time travel, I really enjoyed this book. It's well written and all the characters are amazing. I especially loved Collan and Ashley's characters. They're both strong characters but also, adorable in their own way.
Ashley is recently divorced and hiding from her ex-husband's creditors. Collan is looking for a wife to take back to his time. They're the unlikeliest couple and yet, perfect together. The only problem is that neither of them belongs in the other's time and country. Will they be able to bridge the differences that span through time or is their love story doomed from the start?
I find it an interesting and intriguing read. I am a fan of historical fiction but when you add time travel into the mix, I think the story becomes simply epic. I enjoyed reading it and would recommend it to all romance fans, especially those who like a good historical romance involving Scottish men in plaids. ;)

🌾Escape with Ashley to the misty hills of Argyll and a mountain of a man😉

👍👍This is a well-written romance with heat, action, romance and a bit of a lesson about early Scotland. Set in present day San Francisco and second century Scotland, author Angela Quarles did a great job bringing the past to life.

👥Beleaguered modern woman Ashley is ripe for escape from her hand to mouth life in San Francisco. Tempted by an ad offering a position in Scotland, she goes for it, expecting a work holiday with stunning views and ends up in 2nd century Scotland. Connall, the kilted, perfect male specimen who comes to the future looking for a wife, has a soft and patient side, but he has his stubborn, alpha male moments that throw a wrench in his relationship with his modern born and bred bride. Will she stay in the past and build a life with this chief's son or will she go (back to her own time)?🤔

😍 Quarles created a modern heroine who is brave, resourceful and far more successful in making the transition between times and cultures than I had expected. The author also came up with some interesting twists to the magic of time travel, like giving Ashley the gift of Google-type knowledge of weather and events that she puts to effective use. I also liked that the author did not soak the dialogue in brogue. For me, deciphering heavy brogue makes reading a chore. All of these elements were great touches that added to my enjoyment of the romance.

Thanks to Entangled Publishing and NetGalley for providing a complimentary advance copy of the book; this is my voluntary and honest review.

I really, really liked this book!
Time Travel Romance has long been a favorite of mine and this one just nailed it!

First of all, this was not the typical send the h back to the 1800s where we already know how everyone lived, what the political climate was like, how society worked, etc. No, this wonderful author sent us all the way back to 150 AD!! To the Highlands of Scotland long before there even WAS a country of Scotland!!

Secondly, the h actually struggled to adapt to the climate and cultural change and she did NOT immediately fall in love with the H. It was so interesting having the author take us back to a time in history that we know so little about and not only experiencing it through the eyes of the people who actually lived then but also as seen by someone from our present time having to learn to deal without any of the simplest things we all take for granted on a daily basis.

The romance was gradual as if this could have happened between them naturally and even though the sex was definitely steamy, it did not happen right away and that also felt like it happened as a natural progression of their attraction to each other.

The snarky humor the author managed to intermingle throughout the book was so great! I could really visualize a person saying these same things to themselves after being sent so far back in time and having to deal with so many changes in lifestyle as well as the difficulty communicating what to us would be commonplace procedures and ideas.

I certainly hope there are going to be more books featuring other members of this tribe during this time period because I feel like I really got to know these people and want to continue reading about more HEAs for them!

Quarles dares to be different and I'm lovin' it. From modern firecracker to 2nd century outcast. Move over Outlander, make room for Some Like It Plaid. Ashley and Connell may be from two different worlds, but they do share a common goal. Both are trying to work their way through heartache. With a connection that seems to transcend time, adventure that kept me mystified and heart that touches the soul, Quarles turns an eccentric romance into an unforgettable love match.
