I read this title in the boxed set of books #1-3 in this series.
Who doesn’t love a man in a kilt? Certainly not me or these three heroines. Strong, sassy women and hunky, kilted Scots are written in a way of capturing and holding your attention with fascinating and steamy storylines. The character development in #3, Scandalous in a Kilt, is engrossing and thought-provoking… and yes steamy.
I have read most of the MacTaggart series, this is by far my favorite (and I LOVED Scandalous in a Kilt – Rory and Emery). My favorite thing about the book was what wasn’t in it… (SPOILER ALERT) at the end, there wasn’t a huge, overly-dramatic fight or misunderstanding; it was simply two people trying to figure life out – I appreciated that.
I loved the first book but am blown away with how much I loved Wicked in a Kilt! This book was full of romance, comedy and steam but it has just made me want more! The narrator did a great job bringing the story to life and giving voice to these amazing characters. Ms. Anna Durand made another fantastic book. The whole story was engaging and loveable. I don’t know if it runs in the family or not but I want more HOT SCOTS!!! This book and series is a must to put on anyone’s list!
Great story.
I couldn’t put the book down. Amazing characters you just want to be friends with. Smart and funny until the last page. I loved it so much I purchased all the books in the series. Don’t miss this one!
Loved the characters and the story…I hope to make a trip to Scotland very soon!

After Lachlan came for a fling, but found Erica, instead, Aiden thinks it should be easy for him, since he wants a wife. And he finds her, his first evening at the nightclub that Lachlan met Erica. However, Calli Douglas, is not looking for a husband; she has been trying to get rid of one. She has been living in the woods in Michigan, currently unemployed, running out of money, waiting for her “husband” to give her the divorce he promised. Five years ago her parents died in car accident. Neither she or her former Marine brother, Gavin knew that their parents were in deep financial debt. Calli’s wealthy friend Rade from Croatia, stepped in to help her. He made her an offer she didn’t think she could refuse. He asked her to marry him, so he could get a green card and he would pay her tuition through grad school. The marriage was never consummated and their agreement was to divorce 6 months after he received his green card. However, he keep dodging the processes server and wants to stay married to her. But Aiden recognizes Calli is the one for him and very patiently plans to win her heart. Obstacles, cute dogs, endearing characters and an interesting twist on the green card marriage story. This is a very well written appealing series. I received a free copy but voluntarily reviewed.
I read the first book and this was just as entertaining
very silly
I ended up buying two of these books!
Great characters
Love this series. Only complaint is that it takes them too long to realize they are perfect for each other….I mean, seriously
Silly story and elements of cute. Some hot sex, but there are better out there.
Wicked In A Kilt by Anna Durand is a wicked good read. Ms. Durand has delivered a well-written book. The characters are totally lovable. Calli and Aidan’s story is packed with drama, humor and lots of steamy sex. I enjoyed reading Wicked In A Kilt and look forward to reading more from Anna Durand in the future. Wicked In A Kilt is book 2 of the Hot Scots Series but can be read as a standalone. This is a complete book, not a cliff-hanger.
I voluntarily read a complimentary copy of this book that I won from Goodreads.
Aidan decides to copy his oldest brother Lachlan and find himself a wife in the States; he even goes to the same hook-up bar his brother visited, where Calli’s cousin is celebrating her bachelorette party. There is humor and passion. This does stand alone, but reading book #1 beforehand helps the reader understand the references made to how Lachlan met and wooed his wife. Well-written, easy to read in a day. There are explicit sex scenes, but they’re not vulgar.
I was a bit bothered by Calli’s two “puppies” repeatedly jumping up on visitors, being up on the bed pillows, licking everyone’s face or any other area of “exposed skin” – but I’m not a dog person.
I received a free copy of this book and voluntarily chose to review it.
So I absolutely adore this book. I felt like I had a special connection cause I’ve actually been shocked by someone who was in a marriage of convenience and they failed to tell me till it went south for them. But this book Cali was sinking and needed and out he husband had his green card but would let her go. Enter Aidan looking for love and a fresh start for himself he feels like Cali is his fate. This book was emotional, funny, and so full of love.
WICKED IN A KILT (Hot Scots #2) by Anna Durand is an extremely steamy contemporary romance! It seems all the MacTaggart brothers are wickedly hot and irresistible in their kilts.
Aidan MacTaggart has decided to come to America to find himself a wife. His brother, Jamie is now happy and settled and he wants that for himself. He intends to follow every step his brother took to find his own American bride.
Calli Douglas has come out of her self-imposed five year seclusion to be in her cousin’s wedding. Calli mistakes Aidan for the stripper that is supposed to be preforming at her cousin’s bachelorette party. Well he was in a kilt and too beautiful to be true. What she does not expect is her instant attraction. Callie has sworn off love and romance and is bound by a promise to someone else, but everything changes when faced with one very determined Scot.
Callie and Aidan are both instantly attracted, but because each harbors a large secret that could destroy their budding relationship completely, the pace of their relationship is slow and steady. Both have many obstacles not just with their new relationship, but with trust issues, past relationships and family that I feel this author handled very well. The sex scenes are frequent, extremely hot and explicit. This is one determined Scot out to seduce his American beauty!
Unlike big brother Lachlan, Aidan has honorable intentions from the
start, looking for his own American bride.
In this story, it is charming Calli trapped in a paper marriage.
Thankfully not a cliffhanger story. No unicorns, but lots of
challenges with relationships and trust, past, present with family and
past love.
I received an advanced copy of this story. My honest opinion is this
is a funny, yet wicked romance.
I’m rooting for sweet romance!
Yea for sensual second chances for folks who’ve been burned in the
past, yet still take a gamble
