BOOK REVIEW- A DEVIL IN SCOTLAND by Suzanne Enoch

The dawning of desire
1806, Scotland. Wild, reckless Callum MacCreath is in no hurry to become someone’s husband. But when his responsible, steady older brother Ian announces his engagement to their childhood friend Rebecca, Callum makes a startling discovery: he wants the lovely young lass for himself. But it’s too late, and when Ian banishes him for his duplicity, Callum is only too happy to leave Scotland forever.

…is delicious and dangerous 

1816: Marrying Ian was the practical, logical thing for Becca to do. But once Callum sailed away to America, she missed his rakish charm and lust for life. Now Becca is a widow when a much-changed Callum returns to his Scottish homeland. Will he remember their spirited, fiery connection or does he blame her for his brother’s unexpected death? This time neither of them can deny their scorching attraction. But will their hearts be burned in the blazing heat of scandal?  AMAZON 4 STARS

Callum left with a chip on his shoulder and he came BACK with an even larger chip on his shoulder.    Not only that but he was stronger in body and mind. He was no longer the drunken sot who was wild with women.   He is now a force to be reckoned with.  And he is going to wipe off the face of the earth ANYONE who harmed his brother.

Becca is not the same woman that Callum had to leave behind.  Yes, in some ways she is naive but in other ways she had to grow up.  She was content with Ian but she still feels drawn to the wildness in Callum even though she fights it.  That goes on for quite some time but so does the regrets that they re-hash. Especially Callum; in fact it slowed the story down quite a bit more than once.  That would probably be the only negative thing I would say about this book.  
It was different for the villains of the piece to be right there in everyone's face. Although Callum had to prove it to Becca at first.  And that took some doing.   But the people who had been in her life for ten years as "friends" helping her were smooth in their evil ways.   
You just never knew how and when they were going to make their final strike.  One of the errors they made was that they thought Callum was still that drunken, foolish boy that he was.  They didn't even recognize that isn't who he became.  They underestimated him Big Time.

Good ending with the additional perk of a Epilogue. 

I received a copy of this book via Netgalley and this is my honest opinion of it.
