I love this series.
We return to Highland, Georgia to enjoy the love story between Claire and Holt.
Claire has fallen upon hard times and is grateful for Preacher Hopkin's hooking her up with Ms. Meadows who needed help. The older woman who seemed so crusty turned out to be a wonderful friend to Claire.
Claire avoids making friends, but grew close to the woman.
Holt sees Claire and recognises her as a singer from the festival and tries to befriend her. He eventually makes progress, as do several other towns people and she falls in love with the town and people, while still keeping a big secret.
In no time, due to Holt's dogged pursuit, they become a couple and she feels guiltier about her secrets.
Soon she can't bear the thought of leaving and comes clean, while still pondering what she wil do.
A sweet, sensual and humor laden contemporary romance with hot kilted Scots.
I requested and received a NetGalley ARC and was delighted with the story and recommend it highly.

A Highlander is Coming to Town by Laura Trentham is book three in her Highland, Georgia Series and can easily be read as a stand-alone. The previous books are A Highlander Walks into a Bar and A Highlander in a Pickup.
This book is set in Highland, Georgis and the storyline is set near christmas.
Meet Claire. She's a young woman who's kind of hiding out in rural Georgia. She's living with and caring for an older lady. Claire drew the short stick, but it was of her own chosing, no spoilers here, only so much, she's estranged from her family and keeps more than one secret close to her chest.
She meets neighbor Holt and even when she doesn't want, she can't resist his kindness.
Holt is a good guy, caring and loving, the perfect book boyfriend.
The story is low on drama, a timeless romance, with a heartwarming storyline.
I loved reading the book, 4,75stars.

A wonderful read I enjoyed from First page to last.Great characters romance you will be swept away,#netgalley#st.martinsbooks,

Claire has secrets many many secrets. Holt wants to figure out every single one of them. They both have to learn how to trust. Getting to know Claire and Holt is a lot of fun. This book surprised me. It was a fun read. Who can turn down friendship, music and Whiskey.

I did not discover Laura Trentham until her Highland, Georgia series was released. She is now one of my favorite writers of romance. A Highlander is Coming to Town is one of those feel good books you will not put down. Although a stand-alone, reading this in the series sequence is best. Former series characters are a part of Holt and Claire’s HEA. Highland is a charming small town where everyone knows everyone else. Holt states he has known the town mayor ever since they were little tykes.

Our sweet Claire is hiding in Highland from her family and from herself. Holt and Ms. Meadows encourage Claire to find her refuge and her strength. Ms. Meadows is that loveable, crotchety neighbor everyone loves. Holt is just a hot guy and a gentleman. Claire desperately needs to find herself. She realizes Highlanders care about her for herself, not for what she has because in Highland, she has nothing but herself.

I highly recommend this book, as well as, the first two books in the series. It is a wonderful, heart-lifting story.

Love this book. The characters were laid out splendidly and the story unveiled itself at the perfect tempo. Loved this story.

****A Highlander Is Coming to Town is a sweet read taking place in Highland, Georgia. The town loves and celebrates all things Scottish. The story focuses on Claire who is marking time until her 25th birthday by hiding out in Highland under an assumed name, and hometown boy, Holt. Author Laura Trentham has created characters and a plot that beg readers to continue turning pages as Claire learns to trust not only Holt, but other inhabitants of Highland. Claire has a huge decision to make as her birthday approaches. Will Holt be a factor in it? Will she reveal her true identity or keep her secrets close? I voluntarily reviewed an advance copy of this book from NetGalley. Highly recommend.

A Highlander is Coming to Town by Laura Trentham is a delightful, charming romance that is the third in the Highland, Georgia romance series.

Holt Pierson is the local that is at a crossroads in trying to figure out his place in life and what he wants for his future to include when he comes across another soul searching for answers in Claire Smythe, a Scottish singer, who drops into his life with her own problems and issues.

They end up running into one another and are placed into multiple situations where they end up seeking answers and acceptance from the other all while the author has the excellent ability in keeping these potentially deep and serious subjects light, airy, entertaining, and humorous.

I liked the chemistry and interplay between Holt and Claire and enjoyed the plot and pacing, as well. I also love a good Christmas theme, so that was an added plus for me.

All in all a great romance and a great ending.

5/5 stars

Thank you NetGalley and St. Martin’s Press for this ARC and in return I am submitting my unbiased and voluntary review and opinion.

I am posting this review to my GR and Bookbub accounts immediately and will post it to my Amazon and B&N accounts upon publication.

A sweet romance in Highland, Georgia. Claire was singing with a Scottish band and decided that Highland was a good town to hide out in while she decided what to do about impending family responsibilities. As much as she doesn’t want to get attached to people there, or let them know the truth about her background she cannot help but become part of the town.

Holt Pierson sees Claire in Highland and something about her triggers his memory, but he can’t quite put his finger on it. He follows her then helps her pick up the dropped groceries. That is when he realizes that she is the singer from the summer Highland games. They keep running into one another in situations where Claire needs help and is reluctant to accept it. Holt is interested in Claire, but he doesn’t want to scare her off. Can he get her to let her guard down and let him in?

Touchy woman.

This is the shopping trip from Hell.

That's my birthday as well.

There should be some audiobooks at the library.

It's a baby, not a tragedy.

Twat kids.

Poor old woman.

Haha, horny goats!

He probably knows more about life than any college graduate.

I hate change.

Cousin Lachlan to save the day?

Jump in a lake, Sir.

Aw she doesn't know about Charlie Brown.

Haha! Her parents would have actually died if they had been the ones to walk in on them.

A nice cosy romance, one that also demonstrates family relationships, good and bad and friendship. A satisfying story.
