Some Like It Scot

The Scandalous Highlanders, Book 4

By: Suzanne Enoch

Narrated by: Flora MacDonald

Can a clash of wills...

When a mad lass in trousers shoots at him, Munro "Bear" MacLawry isn't sure what impresses him more - the girl's sure aim or her irresistibly tempting curves. Catriona MacColl has fled to the Highlands with her half sister to escape an unwanted wedding and wants no part of him or any man. But he can't abandon the flame-haired, sharp-tongued wildcat now that he's discovered her - not when she fits so perfectly in his arms.

Lead to a love for all time?

Munro has more than earned his nickname: He's a well-muscled, well-favored mountain of a man with an engaging bad-boy grin and a string of well-satisfied lasses behind him. Bringing Catriona food, blankets, candles, everything she needs to survive a winter in an abandoned abbey, Munro is an unexpected gift in her reckless bid for freedom - and an unexpected complication. Clan MacDonald has plans for her, and they don't include her falling for a MacLawry. But this man makes her feel like a woman - and he may be her one chance to live a life about which she's only dared dream.

Narration almost did me in

I am sorry to say the narration of the male characters was really too much. I really did struggle throughout the story.

Reader hard to listen too.

Loved the story. The reader was good with English accents, both male and female. Her Scottish accents were horrid making it hard to listen to.

Like It Scot

This entire series is excellent. Great character development, humour and romance. Suzanne Enoch is a treasure. Narrator is also the best!! Thank you.

Lovely story!

I haven’t read/listened to Suzanne Enoch for years. I randomly picked “Some Like It Scot” though I’d never read/listened to the previous novels. It was funny, sweet, and believable.

Cat was just tough and strong enough to remain likable, and she was pliable at the right moments (admitting her love and when to accept help). Cat’s sister Elizabeth was more or less useless in their situation, but it really didn’t detract from her charming character; she was skillfully crafted.

Bear’s family was overbearing (HA!) and it made me grit my teeth at times. He’s twenty-seven years old and they treated him as if he were fifteen and mentally disadvantaged, however, the family’s antics didn’t ruin the story. You just need to remember that’s how it was back then, with numerous adult family members living together in one house with one set leader and a distinct pecking order.

Oh, Peter was fantastic too. He wrung a few chuckles from me. Made me want to have him as my “uncle” too.

This is the first book I’ve listened to that’s been narrated by Flora MacDonald. I love her voice and that slight lisp to her speech (tongue touches the inside of upper teeth). I found her completely charming and lyrical. I’ve found more books narrated by her and can’t wait to listen to those as well.

Narration terrific !

I have not read the other stories in this series but the author did a good job of filling in any blanks that were pertinent to this story regarding the family. Only thing I would say against it was that it was probably too long, too much repeating the same dilemma the characters were facing without just getting on with the solution.
I really enjoyed the narrator! She did an excellent job with the accent and voice changes for both the male and female characters.
Overall it was entertaining, I would read another of her books.
