GRUMP IN A KILT
KILTED HEARTS: BOOK 2
KAIT NOLAN

Released March 10, 2023
A grump who lost his family…
After a devastating loss, Malcolm Niall has spent the past twenty years hiding from the world. As manager of a Highland estate, he’s built a life of purpose, caring for the land and animals. And for the past six months, his peace has been utterly destroyed by a sexy Southern whirlwind who’s never met a stranger. Worse, they have to work together daily.
His sunshiny nemesis who’s starting a new life
Nothing about Charlotte Vasquez’s life has been traditional. She never married, abandoned her corporate job to raise the son of her late best friend, and now she’s followed that grown-up son to Scotland for a chance at something new. While she’s enjoying the challenge, she could do without the attitude from the broody Scot next door.
Join forces to protect a runaway
Malcolm and Charlotte clash over absolutely everything on the renovation project they’re tasked to lead. If there’s a healthy amount of heat beneath the frustration, neither is willing to admit it. But when they discover a runaway hiding in one of the cottages, they find common purpose at last. Risks are taken and hearts expand as Malcolm and Charlotte pull out all the stops to protect Gavin from the abusive father who’d tear their unconventional family apart.

BLP REVIEW – Tracy
What’s not to love? A Grumpy Scottish bloke who wears a kilt , works hard, likes whisky and could talk the knicks off a gal!! 😉😉
Malcolm was a character. With a tragic past he was a loner and throughout the story we find out the reasons for this. I loved him tbh. I know some guys like him (not with the history Mal has) but with the brusqueness and ‘leave me be’ air. There was a bit to unpack with Malcolm and he had so many contradictory layers that were interesting to peel back.
Charlotte is like Malcolm in some ways. She’s given up a life for Raleigh and now that he’s settled she must be feeling lovely. She’s the opposite of Malcom in that she likes to talk and is social where he is reserved and quiet.
She’s quite the wee force…. Smart, quick witted, determined and loving. She won’t let anyone away with any nonsense and pulls no punches when it comes to saying what needs to be said and telling Malcom what changes she wants to make around the estate.
I enjoyed their story line, their interactions and Charlottes reaction to Malcolm’s truths. There was definitely an attraction between them and though their initial interactions were prickly they sorted themselves out and made for a great couple.
Definitely enjoying the series and trying to work out who’s gonna be falling for who next. From the teaser at the end of GiaK I cannot wait to read Connor’s story in Playboy in a Kilt.

Playboy in a Kilt ~ #3 – Coming June 9

A notorious former playboy
As heir to Ardinmuir, Connor MacKean had one job: fulfill the marriage pact that’s held his family captive for three-hundred years. Except his sister’s the one who took the plunge, and now there’s nothing standing in the way of him finding a real and lasting love. Nothing except the fact that the object of his affections has never seen him as anything more than her best friend’s little brother.
A hard-working Cinderella who doesn’t need a prince
The last thing Sophie Cameron has time for is a man. Her days are full keeping her flower shop afloat, expanding the event planning business she opened with her best friend, and keeping the promise she made to her late father to take care of her stepmother–even though Lorraine is more like a stepmonster.
A fake engagement that’s more real than either of them bargained for
The little white lie Connor told a former fling to escape his playboy reputation becomes a necessary reality when she shows up as maid of honor to plan a wedding at the estate. As a huge social media influencer, she could make or break Ardinmuir as a wedding destination, so Sophie agrees to pretend to be Connor’s fiancée. But as the lines between fiction and reality blur, Sophie begins to wonder if he’s the answer to the fairy tale she doesn’t think she deserves.

REVIEW – Cowboy in a Kilt (Kilted Hearts #1) by Kait Nolan
Posted by Book Loving Pixies

COWBOY IN A KILT
Kilted Hearts #1
Kait Nolan
Release Date: January 13

A cowboy without a home
Robbed of the family ranch that should have been his legacy, Raleigh Beaumont is a man with no roots and no purpose. When a friend drags him to Vegas, he figures he’s got nothing to lose. But after a hell of a lot of whiskey and a high stakes poker game with a beautiful stranger, he finds himself the alleged owner of a barony in Scotland.
An heiress with a crumbling heritage
When her brother’s bride disappears just days before the wedding that’s meant to save their ancestral home from the mad marriage pact that’s held their family captive for generations, Kyla McKean believes they’ve been granted a reprieve. Until she finds out about the new, single—male—owner of Lochmara and knows she’s next on the chopping block or ownership of both their estates reverts to the crown.
A modern answer to a three-hundred-year-old problem.
Raleigh’s lost his land once. He’s not about to lose it again. Not even because of some lunatic pact made centuries before he was born. Kyla’s desperate to save Ardinmuir. She agrees to marry him on one condition: They wed for one year to satisfy the pact, then get a quick and quiet divorce. There’s no stipulation against it, and they’ll both get what they want.
But this displaced Texan and his fiery bride are about to find so much more than they bargained for.

BLP REVIEW – Tracy
I went into Cowboy in a Kilt both looking forward to it and not being entirely sure ….. Being a Scot, I find I’m often disappointed in books where the characters are Scottish and the writer obviously hasn’t done their homework fully and the language/dialect/words/location just don’t fit or are just plain wrong and that drives me crazy! While I know I will have to suspend some belief reading certain fiction, some things should be right… Sorry, kinda not sorry…
Kait delighted me as she has definitely paid attention to locations, words (and spelling) and while there are some of our colloquial phrases and words used she didn’t over use them when the characters were speaking.
I could picture settings, especially the drive from up north to Edinburgh… all of this, along with the story just made me love this book more! I also got the feeling that Ms Nolan might like this awesome (ok, I’m biased! 😁🏴) wee country of ours!?!
Raleigh was a great guy. Hadn’t had the happiest life since his mum passed then was, IMHO, betrayed by his dad…
Meeting a stranger at a casino with a strange proposition was just another weird turn in his world.
I don’t know how I expected him to be when he got to the village but the gods, the guy threw himself into the whole experience.
Kyla, poor Kyla. He she is thinking her brother is gonna bear the weight of the centuries old pact around their family property and that of the Lennox family, when all of a sudden things change and she’s suddenly in the spotlight.
I liked Raleigh and Kyla together. They formed a friendships that was developing into more – but there was the complication of Kyla already having a boyfriend who lived in the city. I didn’t entirely like the premise of how things would go, especially when it was obvious that feelings were more than were being admitted…
I liked the supporting cast of characters, one or two in particular and you could definitely see some future couples within the friend/family group!
An excellent first book in the Kilted Hearts series and I can’t wait for more!!!!
** Read the novella Jilting the Kilt to meet the main characters that are gonna be in the series and for a glimpse at a happy couple from one of Kait’s other series!!!

NEW RELEASE – Just Wanted You to Know (a Men of the Misfit Inn novella) by Kait Nolan
Posted by Book Loving Pixies

JUST WANTED YOU TO KNOW
A Men of the Misfit Inn novella
Kait Nolan
Release Date: April 14

Livia Applewhite needs a change. Her awful boss has made the job she used to love a serious drag. On top of that, it seems everyone around her is paired off in romantic bliss. It’s enough to give a girl a complex. Hoping a change of scenery will give her new perspective, she sets off for a two-week trip to Tennessee to visit her favorite cousin.
It’s been more than a decade since Declan Callahan has thought about anything but being a dad. But when his extensive (and meddling) foster family wrangles him into a “chance” encounter with the first love he had to leave behind, he’s wise enough not to waste it. He’s got a long-overdue apology to make.
But as that apology opens a door long shut, Livia and Declan give in to the spell of nostalgia, basking as all those old feelings kindle anew. They’re fully grown now, with lives in different places. Will this brief encounter be enough to convince Livia to give the undeniable connection between them a real second chance?

STIRRED UP BY A SEAL
BAD BOY BAKERS – BOOK 3
Kait Nolan
Release Date: August 5

Can a SEAL without a mission and a widowed baker help each other learn to live again?
Jonah Ferguson never wanted to be anything but a Navy SEAL. But after an injury sidelines his military career, he finds himself back home in small-town Tennessee. Opening a bakery with his best friends and daring to re-imagine his life is a whole new mission, but his biggest challenge yet is sticking to the friend zone with the woman who helped give him new purpose.
Two years after losing her husband to a traumatic brain injury, baker Rachel McCleary needs a change. With the proceeds from the sale of her business, she’s exploring what a new life would look like. For the short-term, it means helping one of her former students make his fledgling business thrive. And hopefully adding some benefits to the friendship that helped bring her back to life.
All Rachel wants is temporary, and that’s the one thing Jonah can give her. But when the trouble that’s stalked his business from the start lands her in its crosshairs–and the hospital–he can’t deny that there’s nothing short-term about his feelings. Determined to protect her at all costs, he enters into a dangerous race to neutralize the threat before it torpedoes everything he holds dear.

BLP REVIEW -Tracy
I’ve got the other books in the series but haven’t got to read them yet….. so went into this one not knowing anything about Jonah, Rachel or the other Bad Boy Bakers, but even though this is the last book and things were pretty much cleared up, I’m definitely going back to read Braxton and Holt’s books…
My heart hurt or them both.
Jonah was so lost about how his life might pan out that he couldn’t believe that he deserved the relationship and happiness that his friends had found. Honest to the gods, he frustrated me a fair bit…. he was so protective and felt so much for Rachel but kept denying himself, and her, real hope at a future together….
Rachel was trying to work out who she was now that she was on her own. A change of location, being with Jonah – even for a limited time – helping the guys with the bakery and having the chance to be ‘Rachel’ without everyone knowing the sad truth about her life all helped her start to see where she wanted her life to go.
I was glad when Jonah finally got his head in the game…. i just wasn’t sure whether he’d left it too late or not!
I really liked the other characters and am looking forward to reading about them and finding out how the other couples got together.
