Blame It On Scotland

Kilts and Quilts, Book 7

By: Patience Griffin

Narrated by: Kirsten Potter

From the author of It Happened in Scotland - a charming new romance set in the magical Scottish Highlands. The quilters of Gandiegow expand more than their quilting enterprise into the village of Whussendale. They bring along a heavy dose of good-hearted meddling, too. What's the outcome? Love will never be the same....

When Tuck MacBride, Gandiegow's favorite scapegoat, is blamed for a fisherman's tragic accident, Tuck takes on extra work to secretly funnel his earnings to the maimed fisherman's family. Haunted by the mistaken turn of events, Tuck is working night and day. Even so, he can't stop thinking about the new lass who has just arrived in town.

Ryn Breckenridge has no one left in the world. To fulfill her mother's last request, Ryn travels to Scotland to return a quilt to her long-lost cousin. But there is more than quilting on Ryn's mind. The irresistible Tuck MacBride is proving to be a dangerous distraction. She vows to stay away but can't help taking a closer look when she realizes there is more to Tuck than meets the eye. Both of their pasts contain shattered promises, but Scotland is known to bring reluctant hearts together. Will the two of them be willing to cross the deep chasm between them and find love? If they do, they will only have Scotland to blame....

Grief and joy

Life is a mixture of unbearable moments of grief and joy mixed together and overlayed with hopes and dreams.

Fun, heartwarming and so romantic

I love all the books in the series and they never get repetitive. Each story has a fresh set of characters and problems that get in the way of romance until the happy ending. I am not a quilter but the quilting is really just a backdrop to the story. The ongoing characters from the small village of Gandiegow are perfect, from the bossy ladies to the fisherman and all the great women who hold it all together. In Blame It on Scotland, Ryn is a mess when she arrives in Gandiegow with the simple task of delivering a quilt that her mother in Minnesota had when she dies. Ryn promises her mother that she would take the quilt to the cousin in Scotland that Ryn never met before and maybe learn more about her mother's heritage. All her plans derail when she meets a handsome local who is getting the evil eye from the villagers and working himself ragged to try to improve his situation. Neither of them have time for romance but it happens anyway. There are lots of barriers in their way to love and lots of fun people and places along the way. Kristen Potter is a wonderful narrator and I pay the extra price to get her Audible versions.

yes no yes no

Make up your mind! No real closure with this one. Too many loose threads and no real reason for the constant mind changes.

Sweet story

Another freat story. This author and narrator combination is dinamite. The story was sweet and uplifting and the narration was impeccable. Great clean romance.
