Clanlands: Whisky, Warfare, and a Scottish Adventure Like No Other - by Sam Heughan and Grahman McTavish

The banter and friendship between these two are truly authentic. I learned so much about the history of their homeland. I’m also a history buff but on the other side of the pond, USA. I could picture the vast beauty of the landscape, the heartfelt journey of the highlanders, and their struggles for independence. WOW. I hope one day to visit Scotland and my ancestorial roots. I thoroughly enjoyed listening to Clanlands (audible). Great narration by both authors. They are a HOOT! It made me smile and awakened my spirit. It was so entertaining. UNPUTDOWNABLE. Thanks, Sam and Graham for sharing your journey. I will be searching for an autographed copy of the book for my favs collection.

Mr. Corporate (The Mister Series Book 3) by JA Huss

Image
Victoria is self-made, super-competitive, super-aggressive, and currently drowning in debt when she suddenly finds herself battling with her ex, Weston Conrad (AKA Mr. Corporate), for a job that could literally change her destiny. She was there when the whole college scandal went down at Brown University and the Misters got their infamous nicknames. She saw the whole thing. And she always knew Weston was innocent. But there were other things happening that night. Things in her world. Things in his world. And he always was a bit cagey about his past. That was a long time ago now. She had moved on because let’s face it—the two of them were never going to work. They are fire and ice because Weston wants a girl who  needs  him and Victoria can handle things just fine on her own, thank you. But now Weston is back in her life and somehow, someway, he brought all her old secrets with him.

Sam and Graham turn tour guides once again to bring listeners more epic tales from Scotland.

Mr. Mysterious (The Mister Series Book 4) by JA Huss

Image
Cindy is a girl who goes after her dream no matter what. (Even if it is pure fantasy). And she set her sights on her brother’s best friend, Paxton Vance, a long time ago. She does not give a single **** about the best friend’s-little-sister rule. And sure, they call him Mr. Mysterious for a reason. He’s a “Hollywood fixer”. He handles all the celebrity mistakes in LA. He’s dangerous, and moody, and probably shouldn’t be drinking whiskey for breakfast. But lucky him—she’s willing to be his partner. Everyone needs a team, right? She’s not afraid of a little scandal. Her last name is Shrike. She grew up the daughter of an infamous biker. And anyway, no one’s just gonna hand you your “dream”. You have to make that sh*t happen. So what if Pax thinks she’s delusional? Her parents didn’t name her after a Disney princess just so she could live an ordinary life, now did they? She’s one-hundred-percent confident that good old Mr. Mysterious can hold his own against her brother, Mr. Match.
