Skies Over Caledonia

When you think it can't get better, Samantha teaches you differently Oh my gosh! I love this story, and Jared and Allegra. Simply all in this book! Starting with the writing: It's easy to follow and hook one from page one. Even for a non native english speaker. And is written from both POV's from the I-speaker. There's a lot of tension, I mean the good one with all the spice within. Because they could get hot. Not lying here. The protagonists: Jared and Allegra. They're really reliable to me, there's all the feels and I was desperately hoping for their best outcome and yes the spice. Both have a unique voice that captivated me from the very beginning. This story is now deep in my heart. I didn't know I was missing it till I read it. The plott: It's mainly about the evolution between Jared and Allegra. I like how they'd change throughout the book. The fact of trusting someone else and finding a foundation for true love in becoming friends. The subplot: As all books in the Adair- and Highland-series, there's a clever subplot about a little crime going on. I was surprised in the end, is all I can say. Mostly, I got it right from the beginning. This time, I did not. Well done! Conclusion: A romance full of spice and tension between two people that might not have anything in common but needed desperately a marriage of convenience. This story is ready to blow your mind completely (for the good). Stars: 5/5 About the book: Hes a down-to-earth highland farmer. Shes the rebellious daughter of Hollywood royalty.
