If you haven’t yet read The Mistletoe Countess, the first book in Basham’s Freddie & Grace Mystery series, you really should try to read it before this one. Books 2 and 3 aren’t as necessary to understanding this new one, although you’ll definitely want to read them at some point.

The Highland Heist starts off at a fast pace and never slows down! I was glad I had a lazy day at home to focus on reading it, because I did not want to stop! Characters are getting banged over the head, and left for dead, right and left, with Freddie and Grace dashing around trying to revive them and figure out who did it, without getting bashed themselves.

In the midst of all the mystery and mayhem, the banter between Freddie and Grace never slows down, adding hilarious breaks from the nastiness. There are plot twists galore to leave you gasping, and good reminders that only God can protect those we love.

I couldn't wait to read this book. There's everything in it. Romance, suspense, whodunit, and a huge twist. What a read.

The Highland Heist is delightful in every way! Pepper Basham never fails to deliver a fun fantastical reading experience! 5 stars!

The Highland Heist is a charming romance with Grace and Freddie back at their sleuthing again in book four of the Freddie and Grace mystery series. They're revisiting Grace's childhood home and unexpectedly end up working to solve a murder mystery and encountering all manner of danger and mayhem.

The newlyweds are terrific characters, Grace leading the way with her sleuthing based on her knowledge found in her fictional stories and Freddie's swept up into it all as her adoring husband. I loved how the detective described Grace as having "a certain magnetism toward mishap." Truer words were never spoken.

I enjoyed the addition of little Zahra, so mysterious herself and always in the background seeing and hearing everything going on. She's experienced enough situations in her young life before being adopted to fit in perfectly as the daughter of this sleuthing couple.

My favorite inspirational line, "If the world is shifting beneath our feet, dear Frederick, then we must trust the one who holds the whole world all the more."

Pepper Basham continues to be one of my favorite authors and I'm looking forward to her next book. I appreciate Barbour Fiction making a copy of The Highland Heist available for review. All thoughts and opinions are my very own.

This series is so amazing! The story was very well written and full of fun and heart warming moments. And the plot twist in this book were crazy!

I loved this book! Freddie and Grace are back! And they’re in America to visit family. What could go wrong? Just about everything! What a ride! Will they ever get home? Lots of characters in this one. I love the sweet romance between Freddie and Grace and the family camaraderie with Zahra now too. There’s fisticuffs, fencing, humor, suspense, mystery, clean, sweet, surprises! Who done it? There’s even ghosts, oh my! You should read the series in order, starting with The Mistletoe Countess and you don’t have to wait for New Year’s Eve! Excellent!

Thank you Barbour Publishing for this ARC of the #TheHighlandHeist by Pepper Besham.

I am a huge fan of her novels and writing. This one was fabulous. Grace and Frankie go back to VA to visit her father, but fall into chaos instead. They have an incredible time line to get to find out what is going on and who is causing it.

I really enjoy Ms Basham’s writing. She is a light hearted author where you have no choice but enjoy the novel. I was thrilled when I was approved as a reader.

This series just keeps getting better and better. This book has Grace and Freddie back with Grace’s sister. They journey from Italy to Virginia to Scotland. Meeting villains and peril along their way. With gasps of surprise and smiles of watching their love continue to grow this book keeps you wondering what will happen next.

I love Grace and Fredrick books and I was so excited to see another book in the series. I tried to wait until there was a long weekend, but I wasn't strong enough and read it straight away.

The character of Freddie is a really well written character who has shown growth across the series and stands up for Grace. Grace also is a well written heroine and I love her attachment to fiction books. Their adopted daughter is also an excellent addition to the series.

This can be read as a standalone but you will want to go back and read the previous stories. I immediately ordered it for my library system.

I receive complimentary books for various sources, including Netgalley, Authors, and other such sources. I am not required to write a positive review and have not received compensation.

Pepper does it again!
Grace and Fredrick are back with a fresh mystery to solve. This time it hits a little close to home when Grace and Fredrick walk in on Grace’s sister, holding a knife over her dead husbands body. But Lillias didn’t murder her husband right? Or did she? Grace must race against time to save her family from harm and possibly jail.

I really loved this book. I actually didn’t realize this was an ongoing series but was still able to easily keep up. I read as a stand alone and still understood perfectly. Now I need to go back and read the rest of the series! I would definitely recommend this book to anyone!
