A Scottish romance that makes you fall in love with the country while you fall in love with the story! I've been to Scotland and now I want to go BACK due to this book. I enjoyed the high moments and the low (really empathized with Addie's grief for her mom). Logan sounds delightful and their steamy scenes were perfect. Definitely recommending this one.

I thought this was so cute!! I love a good Scottish romance so having one that was set in modern times was just amazing! I still can’t the Scottish accent though!

This novel is a love letter to Scotland and a travelers dream. Addie is a no-roots travel consultant who works with tour companies to help them boost their business. Logan is a tour guide for his family business, complete with kilt and Scottish brogue, who leads tours throughout Edinburgh and makes tourists fall in love with his home through his storytelling. When she is sent to save Logan’s struggling company, Addie ends up falling for more than Scotland… and discovering some things about herself and her past along the way.

Alexandra Kiley writes in a way that makes any reader want to immediately book a trip to Edinburgh. Logan is easy to love; it is easy to get frustrated by Addie’s lack of communication; and it is easy to root for these two to get together, stay together, and open up to each other. I did find it a bit difficult to follow the overall timeline as it seemed as though some chapters happened immediately and others were weeks after the previous chapter’s close.

Thank you to NetGalley and Harlequin Trade Publishing for the ARC!

If there’s one thing I love, it is a contemporary romance story in a beautiful setting. And this book absolutely delivered on that. I love how the author was able to describe things in such a way that I was able to picture it perfectly in my head, the setting was stunning, and I loved the characters. I will say this was a bit more of a slow burn than what I was initially expecting, however getting to know Addie, a slow burn make sense for her. And who doesn’t love a brooding grumpy Logan an in a kilt? This was a bit spicy and ultimately, I love how Logan was able to give Addie her first true feeling of a home.

Love, love, love, love, love!!! The setting is wonderful. The characters are swoon-worthy and have great chemistry. The story is entertaining and engaging. I loved it from cover to cover. You should definitely add to cart.

I absolutely adored Kilt Trip — the vibrant Scottish setting, the beautiful writing, and the romance. Alexandra Kiley wrote Addie and Logan with a lot of heart. They feel like real people, and watching them fall in love was a joy.

After reading this book, you’ll immediately want to visit Scotland. If you can’t travel there, this book is the next best thing!

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for the ARC.

Kilt Trip by Alexandra Kiley is my first read by her and certainly won't be my last! There are countless things I LOVED about this book: the vivid, detailed setting of Edinburgh and the Scottish Highlands, the HOT Scottish, kilt wearing tour guide, dual POVS from our main characters, Addie and Logan, and finally, the amazing features of this book: work place enemies-to-lovers, countless, Scottish sites with Scottish lore, found family, and snooty sheep (IYKYK). Where is my Scottish highlander to call me "lass"?!

Addie works for a travel company, ensuring companies turn a profit and are enjoyable for customers seeking adventure. When Addie arrives in Scotland, she meets Logan Sutherland, only to find out it's his family company she will be overhauling. Logan is less than pleased to have an outsider coming into his space and re-figuring his family's tour company, the Heart of the Highlands. Logan is determined to hold onto traditions, whereas Addie is set on change and modernization. Logan knows if he can show Addie all the charm and magic Scotland has to offer, he can keep his company as is. Once he learns about her connection to Scotland, he is more determined than ever. With her trauma and difficult past, Addie has tightly walled her heart, frustrating Logan along the way to have her open up. At the end of the day, they prove true love persists and always shows up.

Despite the office rivalry, Logan and Addie are drawn to each other like magnets, the pull strengthening during her time in Edinburgh. Addie is determined to keep her relationship with Logan surface level but her heart has other plans. Logan and Addie have steamy, undeniable, chemistry and it shows-in multiple chapters! Kiley does a great job proving their feelings for each other are far more than what Addie had planned.

I absolutely loved Kilt Trip! Thank you to Canary Street Press and Alexandra Kiley for providing me an ARC in exchange for an honest review. Words can't describe how excited I am to read more of her work in the future. Kilt Trip releases March 5, 2024!

Thank you NetGalley, Alexandra Kiley, and Harlequin Trade Publishing for allowing me to ARC review Kilt Trip!

First things first, I love that an author writes about a country that they obviously love. The authors research of Scotland was apparent and since I just traveled to Scotland, I felt like I was right back in the country. You could tell that she wanted to make the reader feel that they were experiencing travel like the characters.

The story unfolds in a way that the interaction between the male and female main characters flow easily and naturally. Addie's profession is to travel the world and help companies that provide tours in different countries. She has this innate drive to see the world, stemming from her relationship with her mom and dad. Her mom has since passed, and her relationship is strained with her dad. To feel better about her situation, she delves into her job, never settling down until she visits Scotland, a draw to it from her mother's side and pictures she has of her mom there.

Logan runs a tour guide company with his family. He doesn't need Addie to help them out but finally caves. Soon, with close proximity and being like-minded adventurers, the two characters are drawn to each other. Addie may want to plant roots, but is hesitant, Logan may be the person to help her rediscover herself and family.

This book was a really sweet, love story. It was slightly spicy but not overly so. I would recommend this to someone that wants a story with adventure and likes stories about someone rediscovering their past and how it influences their life and their future.

Travel consultant Addie Macrae travels to Scotland to help a family run tour get back on its feet. Instead of a dream come true, this trip is a nightmare for her, reminding her of the death of her mother.
Logan Sutherland loves his job getting tourists to fall in loe with his country, so when the disinterested American arrives the two but heads. But when he finds out about the trip of her late mother, Logan plans a tour around Scotland reliving her mother’s own adventures and the two become closer.
A cute romance set among the Scottish Highlands.

By golly. This was so good, I loved the characters and I loved the plot. It was a fun joyride and I added it to my bookstores cart already!

Thanks to NetGalley, the author Alexandra Kiley and the publisher for the opportunity to read this novel.
The title Kilt Trip gives the first clue about the romantic adventure of the main character in the beautiful land of Scotland. It was a great read and loved the descriptions of the Scottish family and the tour company they run.
Makes me want to book a tour with them
Side note it is a romance and the fact that 2 chapters were about one sexual/romantic encounter was a bit too much for me

Kilt Trip is a sweet romance that elicits happy tears. Cute side characters, fun banter, and enchanting descriptions of the lands and legends of Scotland pair well with a rough-start romance and the spice it later yields. I wasn’t a fan of the ending, happy though it was, but overall it left a lovely light feeling in my heart. Wonderful for a weekend getaway.

Oh my goodness, I adored this book so much and I'll be sharing it with all my customers that love Romance!! I loved that the writing was so good, that I was so invested in all of their characters lives! There were times I was laughing out loud, swooning, and I loved the setting in Scotland! Can't say enough good things about this one! I just devoured it and will look for more from this author!

Thank you Harlequin for giving me access to this amazing debut book. I really enjoyed it and cannot wait to read a physical copy. I loved the characters the setting the enemies to lovers just so well done. Definitely van see this adapted to TV or movie. Very visual story.

My only one small feedback is the formatting make it very hard to read and wish it was a normal netgalley set up to make font larger and not ready for print. I did try and reach out to netgalley and the pub on ig / email with no resolution.

An ode to travelers everywhere, especially those who are still healing from what life has thrown at them. Imagine tall dark and kilted is the man who helps you find the first sense of "home" you've felt since your mom passed away many years ago. A perfect mix of Outlander and Eat Pray Love.

This was such a fun romp through Scotland that hits all the right notes of tension, banter, spice, and a hot man in a kilt. What else could you want?

This was such a fun read!

Logan and Addie had such believable chemistry, the secondary characters were charming and added to the story, and who wouldn't love the setting? While there was an initial intense spark of attraction, the romance was slow to build because of why Addie was in Scotland. But, with the small pieces of herself that she finally opens up to Logan about, they are able to move past it.

I loved traveling alongside them to some of the sites in Scotland and rooting for them along the way.

Thanks to NetGalley and Harlequin Trade Publishing for an advanced reader copy of Kilt Trip by Alexandra Kiley. As someone who longs to go to Scotland, this story was a real treat. The author describes Scotland and its unique beauty in such a way to provoke longing. The main characters were great as were the supporting ones. Who doesn’t want to meet a well built Scotsman in a kilt? The love story and tension between the characters was convincing and fun. I really enjoyed reading this book!

Addie is a travel consultant, she goes into local tour companies and helps them increase their business. Logan knows his tour company like the back of his hand and doesn’t need help. These two are reluctant co-workers, when Logan’s dad hires Addie’s company to help them after a series of disastrous whisky tours. Chemistry is immediate between these two and at first they try to resist. As Addie starts opening her heart and business sense to Logan they get closer and closer. The writing of this book was fine. The romance was sweet but nothing new. I have traveled to Scotland twice and her love for the country definitely showed. I enjoyed this book and would recommend for anyone needing a light read.
