When a Scot Ties the Knot

Castles Ever After

By: Tessa Dare

Narrated by: Carmen Rose

New York Times and USA Today Bestseller

On the cusp of her first London season, Miss Madeline Gracechurch was shy, pretty, and talented with a drawing pencil, but hopelessly awkward with gentlemen. She was certain to be a dismal failure on the London marriage mart. So Maddie did what generations of shy, awkward young ladies have done: she invented a sweetheart.

A Scottish sweetheart. One who was handsome and honorable and devoted to her, but conveniently never around. Maddie poured her heart into writing the imaginary Captain MacKenzie letter after letter . . . and by pretending to be devastated when he was (not really) killed in battle, she managed to avoid the pressures of London society entirely.

Until years later, when this kilted Highland lover of her imaginings shows up in the flesh. The real Captain Logan MacKenzie arrives on her doorstep—handsome as anything, but not entirely honorable. He's wounded, jaded, in possession of her letters . . . and ready to make good on every promise Maddie never expected to keep.

Fiction becomes Reality

This was a fun read. Carmen Rose narrated it perfectly, and I love her Scottish accent.

Some of Maddie’s letters to her fictional captain are included at the beginning of the book and they’re hilarious.

The characters are rich, I loved them all. It’s a great storyline: funny, poignant, tender and sensitive. Very well-written, it’s an enjoyable book to read. I recommend it as well as the first two books in the series.

wonderful story

love the narrative and the story. the characters were likeable. most enjoyed at the end when she finally puts it together.

Love the story

This was a wonderful story with surprisingly vivid love making scenes. The narrator was spot on with the accents.

Beautiful story!

Loved the storyline! Loved all the characters. Beautifully written! Going to look up more books by this author.

Great reading, ok story

I loved the reader, she did a great job with the accent and foreign words (as far as I can tell). the story was ok, worth finishing, but I the heroine seemed to get over her issues awfully quickly. Great hero.
