On the cusp of her first London season, Miss Madeline Gracechurch was shy, pretty, and talented with a drawing pencil but hopelessly awkward with gentlemen. She was certain to be a dismal failure on the London marriage mart. So Maddie did what generations of shy, awkward young ladies have done: She invented a sweetheart.
A Scottish sweetheart. One who was handsome and honorable and devoted to her but conveniently never around. Maddie poured her heart into writing the imaginary Captain MacKenzie letter after letter...and by pretending to be devastated when he was (not really) killed in battle, she managed to avoid the pressures of London society entirely.
Until years later, when this kilted Highland lover of her imaginings shows up in the flesh. The real Captain Logan MacKenzie arrives on her doorstep - handsome as anything, but not entirely honorable. He's wounded, jaded, in possession of her letters...and ready to make good on every promise Maddie never expected to keep.

First book I’ve listened to Carmen Rose narrate. She has a nice, husky voice. To me, she sounds like a cross between Rosalyn Landon and Justine Eyre. Excellent!
A wonderful romance — thank you!
Fun premise, all the feels!

Maddy is practically agoraphobic levels of "shy" so to avoid a London season she claimed to have met and become engaged to a handsome man while on vacation. Why cant you meet him? Well he lives far away...in Scotland...but he's a soldier and he's gone to war...so that's why. To keep up the rouse Maddy sends tons of letters to her imaginary beau expecting the letters to have gone to the dead letter office since their recipient is fictional, but it turns out it wasn't too far fetched to guess the name she made up actually matched a Scottish soldier off fighting Napoleon. Captain Logan Mackenzie shows up one day ready to actually marry Maddy and a truly fun romp ensues.
Do yourself a favor and read this book. The Scottish accents are the cherry on top of a great read.
I totally have a non-fictional Canadian boyfriend.

All along the way, it was funny and amusing in an adorable way, without reading as a comedy. I loved the easy teasing and banter. It was emotional and moving, with tension, without reading to heavy.
I found myself giggling all through with out second hand embarrassment that often comes with humor in romance.
However, if I had the ability to give it 4.5 stars, I would only because there were several tiny details I could knit pick. For example, she kept saying "corset," which wasn't what it was called, and the usually didn't even resemble what we think of corsets today. They wore short stay, which couldn't be laced tight or even snugly. Their main purpose was support, not shaping.
but in the end, the story experience as a whole was so wonderful that things like that didn't detract too much.
I can't say in one phrase how wonderful this was!
