A Rose in the Highlands by Heather McCollum

5.0

I was pleasantly surprised with this book. Fleshed out characters, believable motivations, overall fantastic writing, and A+ chemistry between the hero and heroine. The one disappointment was the love scenes. They were shorter and less explicit than I’d have liked. (There’s lots of lovely kissing but any oral is brief and spoken of vaguely, and the culmination is a little purple prose-y.) After all the de-light-ful sexual tension, I was really looking forward to something more explicit but alas. As this is simply a personal preference, I didn't dock the rating and I'll certainly read the next book in the series, but I figured other readers might want to know.
