Lady Bridget MacDuff is twenty one years old and quite capable of looking after herself, but her father's will says she needs a guardian until she is twenty three or married. That's so unfair, she needs her money now for her project.

Donald, the Marquess of Campbell, known as Cam to his friends, suffered under a brutal father and has sworn to allow the title to die out. He has already got his sisters married off to loving husbands, the last thing he needs is another woman to find one for.

Our strong minded but gentle hearted heroine is very naive when it comes to the ways of the ton. She would much rather be in the country, preferably Scotland.

Our hero is used to everyone jumping to obey his orders. This woman is going to drive him mad.

A very entertaining story with lovely characters. A dastardly villain to provide the necessary danger and a hero that gives us hope for men who listen.

Great fun.

I really liked this historical read. Bridget has plans for her inheritance and doesn’t plan on marrying. Cam is Bridget’s ward and wants her married and out of his way, but what will happen when sparks begin to fly between them. This is a fast-paced read with loads of drama and suspense, I really liked the interaction between the characters and the story held my interest throughout. I liked it.

This is a fun rom-com story featuring our heroine Lady Bridget MacDuff and our hero Donald, the Marquess of Campbell aka Cam. From the beginning of their acquaintance they were huffing and puffing back and forth from each other. Bridget had spirit and determination. She had plans for her future and knew exactly what she wanted to do. She has fire, passion and desire to assist the abused and helpless women of the city. But she was also kind, compassionate, humorous, loving and caring. A dear friend of hers was abused and ultimately died at the hands of her cruel husband. This was her major motivation to set up a house to keep women and their children safe. However, Bridget was opinionated and obstinate. Now that she was Cam's ward, she knew he would do his duty and secure a marriage for her. She never wanted to get married. She did not want to become property of a man to used and abused as he sees fit and get away with it under the law. No, she had her dream to fulfill and that would be enough for her. Cam on the other hand was like minded that he never wanted to marry. That did not stop him from enjoying the company of ladies. He was a rake, a rogue. But he was tender hearted toward his two younger sisters, was active in Parliament introducing bills to assist the unfortunate e.g. veterans and their families who needed assistance after coming home from the war. He was wealthy, titled was part of a loving family, he was intelligent, honest and forthright. But when it came to Bridget, he had to rein himself back from the edge of reason to deal with her. I enjoyed reading about the antics Bridget would go through to thwart Cam from setting up appropriate suitors. It was also interesting to see how often Cam would calm himself to make rational and fair decisions. I found the overall story of the romance between Bridget and Cam entertaining. However, there were a few things that I felt may improve the story. Bridget is from Scotland but has no accent, nor when angry or upset she does not even lapse into a brogue. Which I assume would be the case since she had lived there for several years before meeting Cam. She talks about missing Scotland but nowhere in the story is that desire of hers addressed. Also, when she is given responsibility for a baby, the baby is mentioned once or twice and it is never known what the fate of the babe will be growing up motherless and without family. How will that be dealt with? Another thing that I felt needed to be addressed was the scars mentally, emotionally and physically that Cam carried because of his cruel father. His sister relates to Bridget what he has been through, but why is it never addressed. I would think that in a budding relationship it would eventually come up. I also assumed, and maybe I should not have, that Cam had physical scars. How did he feel about that? Was he ashamed of his body and tried hard to not let it bother him or did it not bother him in the least? How would he explain to Bridget where they came from? I also feel this needed an extended epilogue to tie up some loose ends involving the women's home, the unknown baby and Bridget and Cam's future. When I got to the end, I thought to myself 'is that all there is'? I really did not want the story to end like it did. Oh well. I feel there is room for improvement.

When Cam is called to his estate to retrieve a package, he come face to face with Bridget Macduff, his new ward, His Rebellious Lass. He doesn’t want a ward and doesn’t know how he acquired one. Well, he’ll just get her settled and married off as quick as he can and get back to his own life. Bridget has other ideas. She does not want (or need in her view) a guardian, and she does not want to marry. No matter how determined he is; it does not get better. She wears breeches, rides astride, and can shoot and likes to hunt. What is he to do with her?

This is a lovely romantic comedy with a duty conscience and overly protective Marquess and a feisty and fiercely independent young lady. The story flows along quickly, full of fun, giggles, stolen kisses and a confused hero and heroine. There is also a vile, rather inept, villain who attempts to kidnap Bridget. Throughout the story both Cam andBridget ask one question over and over: Why did Bridget’s father not change his will when Cam’s father (the original guardian) died? Do we learn the answer? His Rebellious Lass is the first book in a new series. Scottish Hearts promises to be an entertaining and delightful series. I really enjoyed this book and happily recommend it. Looking forward to the next story.

I received an ARC of this book from the publisher via NetGalley. My review is voluntary.

Another fabulous story that will have you turning the pages as fast as you can, the characters are likeable and interesting and the chemistry between them is awesome.

I received a copy from Netgalley and I am voluntarily leaving my own honest opinion

I enjoyed this romance. The plot was fun and kept me entertained. Bridget, for the most part was quite likable. She was sassy and knew what she wanted and was determined to get it. Every so often though it felt like a switch was flipped and she turned into a different person. This for me was jarring and off-putting. Cam was likable but not without some issues. I loved that he was supportive of Bridget's plan. However, many of his actions and sentiments were a turn off for me. I did feel compassion for him due to his past though and that let me cut him some slack. In total I did like this book even if I didn't love the characters.

Northen England, 1818 A charming story about two forces, when brought together, can sometimes become unmovable! Such is the case with Cam, the Marquess of Campbell and his newly inherited ward, Lady Bridget McDuff. The first indication is when he came upon her in his home and had no idea who she was but thought "the young lady's face was perfection. High arched brows, creamy skin, a tiny nose and full lips that looked ready for kissing. On second glance, the way they were pursed, maybe not kissing. Who are you?" "I am your ward." She tilted her chin up. "And not happy about it." I'd say that set the stage for them going forward!!
Her father and Cam's were schoolmates who had kept up a correspondence over the years. Unfortunately her father had not named a new guardian when Cam's father had passed away and now the duty fell to him.
Cam won my heart almost immediately when I learned of his childhood and having to take over as head of the family and guardian to his two younger sisters when he was but twenty. He was determined to get her married off as soon as possible so he would not have the "duty of guarding her from hordes of men when they arrived in London. Her auburn hair and crystal blue eyes would stand out at any ton event."
She was determined not to marry and in the will when she turned three and twenty, she would inherit the estate and money. She had plans for those funds to help other women in abusive relationships. He found her intriguing with her mixture of vulnerability and fortitude.
A marvelous story of an unlikely attraction that sparked engaging banter and unexpected feelings that possibly could not be denied! I always look forward to reading anything this author writes and so happy this is the start of a new series, because I know there is more to come!!

This was a delightful read by Callie Hutton. Cam and Bridget are both opposed to marrying. Him from heartache of losing his beloved wife, and her, to remain a wealthy spinster. When she shows up at Cams home, he is summoned home for an urgent "package". Let the fun begin. It is one of those books you want to read and not stop. I couldn’t put it down. The characters were very likable. Cams children were wonderful. I am looking forward to reading more in this series. I thank NetGalley and the publisher for this copy and my opinions are my own.

This was such an entertaining read! Lady Bridget MacDuff has become the ward of Donald, Marquess of Campbell (Cam), which doesn’t please either of them. Bridget is a determined lady who just wants her in hesitance for a special project. Cam just wants to continue with his life as it is, mainly securing votes for his latest Bill in Parliament. Bridget doesn’t like being told what to do, Cam is used to having his orders obeyed and there is an amusing battle of wills between them. There are a number of events in this story, including a house party, an old enemy to contend with and some passionate moments as Cam and Bridget come to terms with their true feelings. This was a good paced story with plenty of action. I received a copy and have voluntarily reviewed it. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

I loved story line of the book, but it did have a few inconsistencies that bothered me. The biggest was Bridget Hated town life and missed/wanted the country life. She hated spending time in the city and complained about that when she met Cam, yet the house for women was going to be located in the middle of the city and no complaints were made about that. I also wished that Bridget was able to have a hand more in the Davenport issue. Cam was great as a hero and only got better throughout the story. Thank you for the advanced copy!

This author is one that will get me away from my suspense or paranormal to step back in time with a delicious tale. in this one we are give the beginning in a series with Bridget and Cam to give us a story that will keep us riveted to them both. Both are stubborn also which is good entertainment in reading with their own agenda. Half the fun is seeing whom get what but really whom gets whom. The drama of the day is most of the fun of reading with the chemistry that slowly takes over. Having humor also in all the right places I found myself just gobbling this one up.

When the Marquis of Campbell is called to his northern estate the last thing he thought he’d been summoned for was a ward - a fiery, red-headed Scottish beauty. Solution marry her off quickly afterall she's well dowered & also attractive so the London bucks will be falling over themselves to wed Lady Bridget MacDuff.
However Lady Bridget has plans for that fortune and they involve helping unfortunate women. She has no plans to marry.
Bridget and Cam are now on opposite sides of a war that neither one plans to lose. Even if Cam’s rakish presence throws Bridget’s heart into turmoil and the marquis can’t deny that his ward sets his heart afire.
A fun entertaining read that held my interest from start to finish, well written with very likeable characters. Cam & Bridget were attracted to each other but both determined not to marry so fought their feelings & each other at every meeting. I loved the way they danced around each other & both had certainly met their match. There were misunderstandings along the way which as times threatened to derail their budding romance but which all added to my enjoyment of this captivating read
My honest review is for a special copy I voluntarily read

Very well written and captivating! The chemistry between Cam and Bridget is palpable from the beginning and their interactions only get hotter. Just when you think you know where the story is going it takes a turn, followed by another twist and another. A romance that will keep you entertained and intrigued to the end.

I liked this story and even though I like slow burn romances this one was a little too slow for me. That being said, it is a nice story of Cam and Bridget. I did not feel that Cam was rakish (it was never shown) but just a guy who did not want to become his father (like we see in lots of stories) so he keeps saying he never wants to marry. I thought Bridget’s cause was honorable and would have liked the storyline to have delved more into that aspect of the story. Overall, a sweet read.

I did not want this book to be over! I wanted to read more of their story. It was humorous and had me laughing out loud numerous times. I love a female with spunk during a time when it wasn’t acceptable. Thank God for those courageous women who molded history. Enjoyable and easy to read and steaming passion. Book gifted to me.

Donald, the Marquess of Cambell, or Cam to his friends and family and lovers (he's a rake with lovers and mistresses, as in many). Just inherited a ward. Whom he immediately wants to marry off to someone else. He has no plans to marry (a bad father).

Bridget is none too happy with being a ward and her father's will. She will inherit a fortune if she makes it to 23 without marrying. She has plans for that money (to help unfortunate women).

So these two are obviously at odds. Neither wants to marry.
I'm thinking that is so gonna change, because they have sparks.
Recommend.

Put together two people who are determined to never marry and you come up with a totally delightful story. Cam returns to his country estate to find Bridget, a beautiful young woman, who tells Cam he is her guardian. From this point on and throughout the rest of the story, Cam is repeatedly shocked and surprised.

This was an easy read for me as the story flowed smoothly from scene to scene. I found the dialogue especially delightful and I fell in love with both Cam and Bridget. I really enjoyed this book

His Rebellious Lass is book one in Callie Hutton’s Scottish Hearts series. I adored this book. It has some truly wonderful moments. I found myself laughing out loud all through it. Lady Bridget MacDuff is a fiery Scottish lass who must marry in order to access her inheritance or wait two years to obtain it. The Marquess of Campbell is horrified to discover that he has been made legal guardian to Bridget. Over the weeks they spend together, he finds himself attracted to her. But both have vowed to never marry. I loved the bickering humorous banter between the two of them. Hutton has outdone herself with this story. I was gifted a copy of the book.

His Rebellious Lass by Callie Hutton is an enjoyable historical romance. Bridget is a likable character with spunk. She hates the rules of women and that women are the property of their husbands. One of her best friends suffered at the hands of her husband and Bridget has dreams of making an impact for women. Her antics to get out of the events were funny.

Cam is hilarious. I enjoyed him from the beginning. He wants to marry off the Scottish red head so he can go back to his normal life. His life will never be the same. We may have expected them to end up together but Callie throws in a few curve balls to get them there.

Sexual content 3.5 one physical scene with details.
Violence – 1 a kidnapping, husband abusing his wife
Language 1
Drinking –2 Bridget likes whiskey, there are several scenes with casual drinking but only the bad guys are drunk

He wants to marry her off quickly. She says absolutely not.

When the Marquess of Campbell inherits a fiery, red-headed Scottish beauty as his ward, it’s his job to marry her off. No problem.
This Callie Hutton book is all I have come to expect from this author.
There is a bit of intriguing story and unexpected love.
This book gets 4 of 5 stars for storyline and characterization.

As always I look forward to more from this author.
