Italy...fair Juliet...a Scottish laird... This isn't the love story you're expecting!

He loves me…

Scene: The Italian countryside, where Miss Juliet Windermere awaits a confession of love from the man of her dreams. What she gets is a declaration that she looks like the woman of his dreams…who is currently a thousand miles away—in Scotland.

She loves me NOT…

Scene: The Scottish Highlands, where Lord Rory Macbeth, Viscount Kilmuir, has no thoughts of wooing the girl next door. But Juliet doesn’t know that. He’s sure she’s never liked him, but when the talented poet says she’ll help him win his true love, he begins to see a whole new side to her.

The course of true love never did run smooth…

Juliet hopes writing the poem will end her stubborn crush on Rory. Instead, working together leads to new discoveries, and a kiss in the rain reveals the playful passion only they ignite in each other.

But can Rory convince his warrior poet that she, and only she, is his heart’s desire?

Review
I received an Advance Reader Copy from the publisher, via NetGalley. This in no way impacted on my view.

Miss Juliet Windermere has always been drawn to the handsome Viscount Kilmuir. Even since Archie brought Rory home from school, Juliet has known she had feelings for the Scot, but has never acted on them. And just when she thinks she might be ready to show herself to him, he tells her how alike she is with the woman who refused his proposal. So now, Juliet is ready to forget all about Rory, and her feelings.

I really liked this book. After seeing the couple in the previous books, with Rory seemingly obvious to Juliet's feelings, it was lovely to see how he saw her in a new light while together in Scotland. Juliet loves poetry, and is quite the poet herself. When Rory comes across her writing, and reads some of her work, he's awed and starts to see a new Juliet he never expected. Rory had always thought that Juliet hated him, and learning more about the true Juliet makes him fall, and fall hard. It was great to see the hero fall first, and though the way he went about wooing Juliet might not have been great, it was well worth it in the end. Now, I can't wait for book 4, and hope we see more of our couples when Delilah and Ravensworth have their time.
