The Rebel Wears Plaid



The Rebel Wears Plaid


Prince Charlie’s Angels #1

by Eliza Knight

⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5

Sometimes when I  read a historical romance set during the Jacobite uprising, I fear that it can become too depressing knowing how history is payed out. In this first book of Eliza Knight’s new series, there is a lot of fighting, but we do not get to the end of the rebellion, so we are left on a. Definitive high note, which I enjoyed.

In this series we see the stories of three women who swear their allegiance to Prince Charlie as youths following in the footsteps of their rebellious forefathers. They call themselves “Prince Charlie’s Angels”. All three women bring a special skill to the rebel force: a leader of men, a healer and a messenger.

Jenny Mackintosh works hard day and night. By day she is the fill in laird, while her brother is in London allying with the English, by night she travels the countryside recruiting for her rebel army.

On one such recruiting mission her party comes upon 2 bedraggled Scots trying to escape the English. She takes pity on them and takes them with her, not realizing that one of them believes her to be their son enemy.

 Toran Fraser is on a missing to bring down the Jacobites and find vengeance for his family. In particular, the rebel leader known as Mistress J, who happens to also be his saviour. Toran feels an incredible pull towards her, but the guilt he feels for his attraction to his enemy is enough to keep him at bay… at least for a little while!

I absolutely adore a good enemies to lovers trope and these tow being on opposing sides of the uprising could not be any more opposite! Thier romance burns slowly, but bu the time they get together they are on fire! Very hot.

This was a great story featuring a strong female heroine and the man who ends up loving, supporting and standing by her side. I highly recommend this book!



The Rebel Wears Plaid by Eliza Knight is scheduled to be released June 30th, 2020.

I received a complimentary copy of this ebook from Sourcebooks Casablanca through NetGalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.
