Humor and passion collide in this wonderfully fast paced read. Suzanne Enoch has once again delivered an extremely well written storyline with headstrong characters and a much deserved happily ever after. I really enjoyed this book and hope to read more from this author. I received an advanced reader copy of this work from netgalley and all opinions expressed are my own. Regards, Anna

I loved this book! The characters are all written well and the story flowed throughout the book. It was fun to read and I liked the conclusion to the series.
I highly recommend this book as well as the previous books in the series.

After very much having enjoyed Scot Under The Covers, I was very happy to receive the arc for Hit Me With Your Best Scot. Because - of course - I wanted to know more about the MacTaggert family. After Niall (It is Getting Scot in Here) and Aden (Scot Under The Covers), only Coll needs to find himself an English lass within a month. So that his sister can finally wed.
The problem: every woman starts to scramble away from him, when he opens his mouth. Of course, when they haven't fled the scene on eyeing the big, brutal Scot in the first place. Coll is getting frustrated, but he certainly doesn't want his meddling mother to choose a bride for him.
So, he strikes a deal with the actress Persephone Jones: she will teach him how to act like a civil young man, so he can woo a lass. And he will offer her protection from her admirers. But while being taught, Coll starts to realize that Persephone is also putting on an act: she is not who she seems. And more importantly: someone else knows this as well and tries to kill her.
But not on Coll's watch. Whoohoo: the Scot goes all rampage. I loved it! And the banter between witty Persephone and the brutally honest Scot is hilarious. A wonderful story, with some suspense, a lot of laughter and sparks flying. Five out of five stars from me and a special thank you to Netgalley for providing the arc.

Coll MacTaggert has been my favourite MacTaggert since this series started. He is the wildest and most wicked MacTaggert and I have been anxiously waiting to read his story. And it has definitely not disappointed. Those who have been following the MacTaggerts on their individual missions to find themselves English brides, know how Coll has been running away from settling down with any one of the brides that his mother has been throwing his way. But it seems that he has finally found himself a candidate at the most unlikely place.
Persephone Jones is no ordinary woman. She is the most famous actress in the land and always has a swarm of male admirers at her feet. And although she may give the impression of being scandalous, she is far from being the femme fatale that she wants everyone to believe that she is. She never lets anyone see her true self or even her true appearance and has a big secret which no one knows about, not even the ones who are closest to her. And as an enemy from her past threatens her life she finds herself in need of a protector.
After dodging all advances made by the many aristocrats of the ton, one strapping highlander has caught her eye. He is unlike anyone she has ever met. He is uninhibited, wild and determined and won’t stop till he gets what he wants and what he wants is Persephone Jones. He has vowed to protect her and keep her safe.
A wild and passionate read with a healthy dose of intrigue. So so sad to see this delicious series come to an end. Another highland masterpiece from the Queen of Regency and Highland romance. Not to be missed!!

I liked it even if I think this book is the weakest of the three in the Wild Wicked Highlanders series. It still was a lovely, quick read but that's not to say there aren't some elements of the story that could have been better.
I really liked Ms. Enoch's dialogue writing. It’s sharp, fast-paced, and thoroughly witty from beginning to end. It was honestly a joy to read. Persephone is a strong, flawed heroine who is fascinating to read and Coll is a typical historical romance highland hero who makes us love the genre in the best ways. I loved these two characters, as individuals and as a couple. The chemistry and repartee between them could be better but still very enjoyable. I loved the richness of the characters and the story line. And the ending made me happy. The supporting characters are also all entertaining and delightful to read.
So overall, if you ever need a book that'll satisfy your need of happy ending then this is it. It's an easy read, somewhat predictable though. Still, all in all it was a good book.

I love the MacTaggart brothers. In this, the third book of the series, we follow the eldest brother Coll as he tries to buck his mothers dictates to find a wife among the English. Running from another of his mothers setup attempts he stumbles across Persephone, a highly regarded actress. As they become friends Coll offers his protection from unruly fans in return for her help with his quest. As they get to know each other things take a dramatic turn that forces them to acknowledge their feelings. In a race against time and an unknown foe they come to realize just where they want to be and with whom. Family closes ranks and everything comes to a head in the end.
A fast paced read with an amazing happily ever after for the ending Coll finally finds the lady for him. I love this series so much and I’m sure you will enjoy it as much as I did.

Suzanne Enoch does it again! Coll is my kind of man. He has a harshness to him but in an endearing way. He’s a barbarian that you can fall in love with. All the MacTaggert brothers are lovable and sexy. And in this conclusion to the MacTaggert brothers finding their English wives, it was really great to finally see everyone in the same place with the patriarch finally joining the MacTaggert brothers in England and reuniting with his wife and daughter.

Absolutely lovely story, with an self sufficient actress and a surly Scotsman. I loved how we not only got to see and appreciate the plays that Persephone performed in.
I’ll readily admit that I have not read the other two books in the series, but I have added both to my TBR! This book truly can be read as a stand-alone.
The relationship that the MacTaggert siblings have was an absolute delight. Both Aden and Niall both knew exactly how to handle Coll. “And dunnae hit me” was mentioned a few time by the brothers and I laughed aloud each time.
I am definitely a fan of strong self sufficient female leads in historical romances. And Persephone did not disappoint. Her back story was fantastic! Coll and her story swept me away, and quite often had me laughing out loud.
“Seeing me there might well surprise him into giving himself away.” She finished her own tea. “And then I can punch him.”

Hit Me With Your Best Scot is the final book in Enoch's trilogy about three brothers "dragged down" from Scotland by their English mother to marry proper English ladies. Coll, the oldest and least concerned about appearances in Sassenach society isn't much interested in marrying, or playing nicely for that matter. And when he meets actress Persephone Jones while escaping from potential suitors he finds a perfect solution to drive his mother crazy. And with Persephone's life being threatening, having Coll around suits her just fine too. Naturally romance ensues, hijinks commence, and a not so surprising secret is revealed that explains why someone wants Persephone dead. There aren't really any heart-wrenching moments in the series, but there are some laugh out loud moments and it's easy to root for Coll and Persephone and their mutual lack of concern for society expectations.

Lots of romance, humour and passion in this book. Love the main characters and they are such interesting characters and so likable too. A terrific book!

I Loved It! Gripping and Suspenseful! I thoroughly enjoy when a book grips you right from the start and takes you on a heart-stopping, sigh worthy journey as in Hit Me With Your Best Scot. Suzanne Enoch, has woven a story from beginning to end with threads of intrigue, secrets, and murder. It's an unforgettable Highland mystery that brims with tension-building twists and turns, remarkable emotions, characters that are well thought out, you find yourself drawn into their story, great and witty dialogue and with one fantastic plot! Who doesn't love a brawny, no nonsense Highland who settles trouble with his fists and Coll is just that until he meets Persephone, a no-nonsense lady-in-hiding. As the sparks fly between them, their journey takes them on a rollercoaster ride of heights of passion swirling down into a vortex of attempted murder and intrigue in which it unfolds beautifully with drama, searing passion, fear, angst, trials and tribulations and as the tensions escalates the suspense builds and mayhem abound that will keep you reading to the end and wishing for more!

Entertaining Story. Coll is the laird's eldest son and as part of an agreement must marry before his sisters wedding. Persephone is an actress and is an independant woman who knows what she wants in life. Coll is smitten with Persephone but knows that his mother would not approve. In the meantime it's become obvious that Persephone's life is in danger. Coll, being a protective type, is keen to solve the probably. It didn't take long for kisses to become full on passion. Actresses had a poor reputation but Persie also knows what she likes and isn't affraid to go out an grab it. The romance built up and the mystery was slowly solved. Lots a characters that were present in the 2nd book and at last we meet Colls Dad and find out a bit more about his parents estrangement. I wonder if there's a chance for a Novella for Angus and Fransesca. I didn't finish it till 12:45 so you can see it kept me intrigued and I think you'll enjoy it.
I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

I requested to read and review this book St. Martin Publishing Company. Suzanne Enoch has another great book! Has a European setting. This book has romance, mystery, humor and life lessons! Coll is a take charge kind of guy and will get the job done anyway he can. Persephone don't underestimate her there is more to her then what you think! The whole MacTaggert clan will check you laughing and wondering what is going to happen next!

Not my favorite Suzanne Enoch. Normally I find her books to be so fun, but I just couldn't connect with Coll and Persie. There didn't really seem to be a spark between the characters. Plus the resolution at the end seemed a bit like a cop out, and just wasn't very fleshed out. I still love Suzanne, but her Scottish books are not my favorites. I wish she would write more things in the vein of the Lessons in Love series.

This was a very enjoyable book. Very funny and fast paced. I haven't read the other books in this series, but it didn't impact on this story at all. I will definitely be going back to the others.

From the start you know who Coll is going to marry in end. The journey to that point is bumpy and full of surprised. I like the characters. Persephone seems to be a great character and I'm glad she isn't going to give up her dreams after she gets married. This was a fun quick read.

This book was very entertaining from the start! I enjoyed the bantering between the family members. The heroine is an actress that has a secret. The hero is a Scot who needs to marry an English woman right now. The hero's mother and father are estranged because of their pride. They fought and the mother took the daughters and the father took the sons and they were raised seperate, except for a couple of visits. The mother controls the money and says she will relinquish the control of the money if her sons all marry before the last daughter marries. And that wedding is scheduled for 30 days away. So the family goes to the theater and the Scot sees an actress who treats him in a sassy way. The same actress is trying to fight off a problem suitor who is trying to have his way and the hero saves her. He then goes to the theater every night to escort her to his carriage. But not to her home, because she has a secret.
I love an HEA, but the way there is always the main interest for me. This story is very well written, with a clear plots and sub-plots. They are clearly a family with familial bickering and supporting each other. The hero and heroine were well written with development and very likeable traits. The story was continuous with very little dead space. There were not any spelling errors that I noticed. I give this book 5 stars and recommend reading.

I haven't read the first two books in this series, but that didn't prove an impediment at all. This stands on its own, even though it hints at the storylines from the first two books. This was an enjoyable romp of a book. Both main characters have some depth, and while it did fall somewhat under insta-love, the author did an admirable job of making the relationship about more than just lust and looks.

Thoroughly entertaining and humorous story with the added bonus of an intriguing mystery twist which all come together for such a pleasurable to read. Absolutely love both characters. Their maturity, boldness, strong-willed and bodacious personalities make them a very well matched couple. I love this writing style for this genre. It was so good, I didn't want it to end but when it did it left me with warm feelings of happiness and a big smile of joy!

Who doesn’t love a great Scottish historical romances. Amazing read with a storyline that draws you in and keeps you there. And characters that are engaging and captivating. I couldn’t put it down I had to see how the story would play out. I’m always happy when I get a new book from this author. Can’t wait for the next book
