The Scot Who Loved Me

The Scot Who Loved Me


A Scottish Treasures Novel, Book #1

by Gina Conkle

⭐⭐⭐/5


This second chance romance reunites two lovers that were torn appart on the cusp of the Jacobite revolution. Coincidentally the same cause, the return of Jacobite gold to the Highlands promos their reunion.


Anne Fletcher’s heart was broken when her love never waited for her to reach their meeting point before they were to run away together, instead he choose the fight with the Jacobites. Now, she has put all of herself into the same fight as she does everything in her power to restore Scotland to its former glory… and right now that’s stealing back Jacobite gold with the help of her former lover!


Will MacDonald was also heartbroken when Anne wasn’t there to meet him years ago, so he hurried his feelings in the war effort… now she has come for him and needs his help. He still loves her and will do what she asks, even if its treason!


This story has high on details, but not ones I flet necessary to the story or the romance. I was hoping for more real information on the plight of the Scottish, since this time was so volatile. I had also hoped for more on this reunion romance. There was a lot of talk about how intense their romance was as youths… but 8 years later there was a lot of yearning that left me yearning for more!


The ensable cast of characters added a lot to this book, especially Celelia and I would return to this series to see her character get her HEA.




The Scot Who Loved Me by Gina Conkle was released May 25th, 2021.



I won a complimentary copy of this book from HarperCollins Publishers, Avon Books that was provided through Netgalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.
