I am most impressed with this story. Captain Ian and Louise are quite charming in this sea winding adventure. Each character was more interesting then the next and poor Captain Ian had to keep them corralled on the ship. Who would have thought so many mishaps could happen on a boat. I enjoyed reading the entertainment. Until next time my fellow readers… read on! I received a copy of this book from the author in exchange for an honest review.

This book wasn't my favorite. I found the heroine extremely difficult to like. I stuck with the book until the end, and I'll give the author another chance, but this just wasn't my cup of tea.

Words can’t express how much I enjoyed tSaving the Scot is a hijinks tale of mistaken identity, secrets, and outright lies that make the reader wonder which Scot needs to be saved most. Wonderful book with extraordinary characters! This is not a book to miss.

Man oh man do I love me a good historical romance. On top of that, I love the stereotypical depiction of a Scotsman. This book delivered on all fronts. I like that this book can be read as a standalone even though it is a part of a series!

Louisa Robertson’s father is furious when he finds her acting on stage. Now, she’s being shipped off to America to marry some stranger her father thinks will bring out the “lady” in her. Luckily, Louisa’s maid agrees to switch places with her! Her maid will marry the American and get the wealthy lifestyle she’s always wanted, and Louisa can do whatever she damn well pleases––for the first time in her life.
This was an enjoyable read from an author I don’t think I’ve read before. I really liked both main characters and I just loved Louisa! I can’t wait to read more from this author. I highly recommend.
**I voluntarily read and reviewed this book

Definitely a fun, interestinG romance--I wasn't sure how long the charade would last and if this would be more prince and the pauper or goose girl, but I liked to see how everything ended up developing.

This is the fourth book in The Highlanders of Balforss series. I have not read the other three in the series, but this is not an issue as each book can be read as a standalone. 

Louisa Robertson has infuriated her father for the last time. After he catches her acting on stage, he announces that he has arranged for her to be married and she is to be escorted to America to meet her groom. Loiusa has no plans to marry and hatches a plan with her maid to trade places the only problem her father has enlisted an escort for her for the journey. 

Ian Sinclair is desperate to receive a new commission, and when he receives word the General is looking for him he believes his luck has come in. Unfortunately the General is not offering him a commission; instead, he wants him to escort the General's daughter to America. Ian is reluctant, but he finds the lady in question does not live up to her reputation. It's the companion that is a hellion and sparks fly between the two. What will happen when he discovers the truth?

This was an enjoyable read with compelling characters and developed at a fast pace. Loiusa is an intriguing character who longs to escape the bonds that are placed on her by virtue of her position. She wants to live life on her own terms and refuses to allow anything to deter her. 

I received an arc of this book from the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Saving the Scot is the fourth book in the The Highlanders of Balforss series by Jennifer Trethewey. You do not need to read this books in order, they each stand up well on their own. However, returning readers will get to see some of their favorite characters again.

Louisa Robertson’s father is furious when he finds her acting on stage. Now, she’s being shipped off to America to marry some stranger her father thinks will bring out the “lady” in her. Luckily, Louisa’s maid agrees to switch places with her! Her maid will marry the American and get the wealthy lifestyle she’s always wanted, and Louisa can do whatever she damn well pleases for the first time in her life. Highlander Ian Sinclair needs an army commission, and the only way he can get one is to safely deliver the general’s Daughter-from-Hell to her intended in America. Easy, right? It would be if the lady’s companion Louisa didn’t wear breeches and do everything the exact opposite of what he orders. It’ll be a miracle if the sparks flying between Ian and Louisa don’t set the bloody ship afire before they arrive in America. But just when Louisa thinks her plan is going to give her the acting career she wants and a Highlander to boot Ian discovers her secret.

Saving the Scot is a fun read that had me sympathizing and rooting for all the major characters from the beginning. Louisa is sick of people making decisions about her life without consulting her and when her father ships her off o marry a stranger she sees a chance for a new life. No deception is as easy or harmless as it seems, and even when things seem to be going perfectly guilt and missteps make things hard for everyone. Ian has his own troubles, and shared attraction is the least of them. I enjoyed the banter and the connections that the characters forged even when they were trying to keep part of them selves back. I greatly enjoyed the story, and Ian's understanding of how dull and limiting a woman's life could be just made him even better. The secondary characters and stories were just as intriguing as the main story line, and there were several small surprises along the way. A couple times I thought I knew where a plot point was going, only to be pleasantly surprised to see it take a different direction.

Saving the Scot is another entertaining read from Trethewey. I will definitely be continuing to read her work.

Saving the Scot was a fabulous read full of adventure thanks to a very opinionated and unconventional heroine. All Louisa Robertson wanted to be is her own woman and follow her dreams of being an actress. Something that blew up in her face big time once her father, General Sir Thomas Robertson AKA the Tartan Terror, discovered her on the stage. With a nickname like ‘Daughter-from-Hell’ he somehow arranged a marriage for her in America. Great job dad! Assigned to perform this task is poor captain Ian Sinclair, whose only goal was to get a commission from the general to return to the army. Now he is stuck with this responsibility and having heard of his daughter’s reputation made me feel really bad for him.

Louise is a hellfire that has zero intent in going through with the arrangement. Sure she is stuck on the boat with her maid companion, some serious phobias, a stranded cat, and motley crew of sailors but that will not deter her from her new plans to remain her freedom once they dock in America. Even when her attraction to Ian grows and his to her despite all her unladylike behavior and free spirit the angst does not stop.

This book is full of delightful goof ups that will make you fall in love with Louisa (even when you just want to scream at her for being a brat) and Ian (who is a pure tortured soul). I swooned and awed throughout the books knowing two people could not be more perfect together, if only they would open up about all the things they are keeping from each other. The story becomes a whirlwind of activities and major drama even when most of it happens on a ship bound.

I am seriously going to miss those two… and all the characters that were part of their story.

I love Scotish based books and this one hit the mark.Great charactors and well paced story make this a five star read.I have read other books by this author and I look foward to more by her.

Jennifer Tretheway's historical romance is a solid piece of writing. Excellent dialogue and plot. Saving the Scot is well-rounded story.

This is a delightful love story. Louisa is so spirited, but she acts before she thinks. Ian is trying to find his place in the world. The secondary characters are great in this story too. I won't spoil it for you, but I'm sure you will be cheering for a HEA for this sweet couple.

This is the 4th book in the series but can be read as a stand-alone. Ian wants to return back to the army but instead is ordered to take the Captains troublesome daughter to America to be married off. Sparks are flying between Ian and Louisa even though she doesn’t do anything he asks. What will happen when he finds out the truth about her? Fast-paced fun read with plenty of drama and great chemistry. An entertaining historical read.

Louisa Robertson is the daughter of General Sir Thomas Robertson AKA the Tartan Terror. She is known as the General's daughter from Hell. She is always in trouble but she wants the same freedom as her brothers but at this time it ain't going to happen. I feel for her through out this book, what she gets herself and even other people into would surprise you.. She has a heart of gold and is a sweet girl, but. She gets herself in a mess this time because she wants to act and in the middle of the play in walks in her dad, throws her over his shoulder and turns around and leaves. She is going to America for an arranged marriage.
Captain Ian Michael Sinclair, former Captain of the 42nd Royal Highlanders of Foot and second son to Laird John Sinclair, had been called in by his former superior officer, now General Robertson. He was hoping for a commission., he missed the military.
I loved this story, she was a whirlwind. Her maid was traveling with her and they were in cahoots. She experienced a storm, some fears, and a cat. It was funny, sweet, and scary. I had several good laughs during the reading.. It is not for the young, there are some sexy scenes. I just overall enjoyed it. If you like Highlanders, a Captain and assorted characters, you will love it.

This is the first book I've read by Jennifer Trethewey and I enjoyed it so much. I loved the characters and the adventures they encountered along the way. This is the 4th book in the The Highlanders of Balforss series. Even though I haven't read the other books in the series, it didn't cause me any confusion while reading this book. I am looking forward to reading the books I've missed by this author.

hip Captain Ian Sinclair’s true desire is to be a soldier again and when his old commander calls him to report he’s hoping to be recommissioned to the army. Louisa Robertson’s father, General Robertson, is known as the terror of Tartan has had enough of her embarrassing him at every turn. He’s decided that her taking to the stage is the last straw and he’s now sending her to America to marry a man she’s never meet. He calls on of his previous best officers for the mission to take his daughter known as the “the daughter from hell” to America with the promise of a commission when he returns. Louisa true to her nickname makes her own decision to switch places with her maid for the voyage and escape marriage to a man she’s want to marry. I love these two together Louisa throws convention to the winds and Ian is all order and orders, but what’s he to do with the stowaway on his ship he’s become attracted too. I voluntarily read and reviewed this amazing book.

Having read the couple of the ones before this one how could I ignore this one? I was transported right away in this one when the fine Scot in this has or will have his hands full. Ian has to deliver a bride to a intended in America but he will have a battle he has not encountered before. Lousia pulls a fast one with it also having me chuckle a time or two with her shenanigans. The heat on the ship though will also rise to some dangerous levels where the others better be careful. The relationship is a fine one to be given in this with sooner or later the truth be told. I do so like how this author ties it up so neatly giving us one of her finest yet again.

What is better than a strong Scot and a fiesty heroine that does not at first appear as she should? Not much and I can honestly say Jennifer Tretheway is a master of creating a story that will grab you on the first page and not let go until the end. But even then you will be left longing for the next fabulous tale!
Louisa has finally pushed her father to the end of his tolerance when he finds her acting on stage dressed as a man. What could be wrong with that? You see her father is a General and known as the Tartan Terror. He is determined to get his daughter married and under control, so he enlists one of his former men to make sure she gets to America by ship to marry a man of his choice.
Ian Sinclair is that man and he desperately wants his commission back so he can return to the army. Simple right? Just get the girl to America and come back for his reward.
Of course things are never that easy and Louisa thinks up the plan for her maid to act as her and marry the man in America and she can go to New York and become an actress!
The adventure begins and I will not spoil it for you but you need to read and find out what happens. Be assured you will smile with the humor and be intrigued by Louisa and Ian.
I can only hope that the next book in this series comes out soon because I so loved this one!

I really enjoyed reading this adventurous read and a journey across the Atlantic. What seemed like a simple deception, playing a role, soon turned into a much-complicated problem because now there is no turning back. Saving the Scot is a sweet and romantic read. It is a story about two people who are doing something they don't want to do, they have envisioned their lives different, yet fate always intervenes.
All Louisa Robertson wants is freedom to pursue a carrier is acting. Unfortunately, her father and brother do not agree. She is notorious for causing trouble in her home town and everyone talks about her. Ultimately, her father has had enough and decides to ship her off to America. Where she will marry someone she hasn't even met, let alone love. But not to worry because Miss Louisa is never short of ideas to get out of such troubling situations. Along with her maid, she hatches a plan to deceive everyone and at last, gaining the freedom she has always craved.
Ian Sinclaire wants to return to the army but now he is saddled with two women and it is his duty to see that they reach America safely. Their journey is not going to be an easy one, he is sure of that, but he did not anticipate added complication of his feelings for Louisa Robertson's companion. The woman does something to his heart and he simply does not know how to ignore his feelings. Dare he make a move? It isn't like she expects hearts and flowers. Maybe they can both enjoy each other's company and little romance before they must part ways.
It's a very entertaining story and I thoroughly enjoyed reading it. I think it is a must read for historical fiction fans.

This is thrilling and captivating story that draws you in from the start, the author has a fabulous way of making you think you are not just reading but actually in there like you are part of the set.
