Neither one makes a very good impression on the other and it seems this is done purposely on each of their parts. Deny is the name of their game and it can only hold out so long against the strength and persistence of their deepest desires fueled by unstoppable chemistry.The plot, along with the development of a relationship and shifting feelings is both entertaining and engaging. I swear Logan and Serena have regressed to elementary/primary school yard antics!

As one that has never missed a single book in this series, I was floored at the beginning of this one. It was so slow and silly and not at all like I know Anna writes. Then it took off and wow, I loved it. I guess the start had to show what an ass Logan was and why Serena hated him for being so stupid. Just as boys did in grammar school, Logan was attracted to her and was scared to death of it, therefore made a fool of himself. Once they both realized they were very much attracted to each other, the story went full blazes on and into an adventure and then a family gathering of the MacTaggarts. This was a very heartfelt story that gave us background into both Logan and Serena and the whys and wherefores of each of them. It was the usual Durand with wit, warmth and a great HEA. It also had a very good set up for the story between Catriona and the "British Bastard" and wet our whistle for that as well. Too bad we have to wait til Fall to read it. Boo! That being said, read this one it is a doozy. Enjoy!

I have fallen in love with Anna Durand's books as they are so full of everything I like in a Romance: smart women, hot men with heart and a few suspenseful twists and turns that lead to a happy ending. Lethal in a Kilt delivered all that and more as I swooned over Serena and Logan's relationship. Don't get me wrong, Logan made me want to smack him quite a bit at the beginning of the the book - and how in the world Serena didn't deck the guy, I do not understand - but you knew all the smart-mouth activity would erupt into passion.But the passion on the page is nothing compared to when the story is performed by Shane East and Emma Wilder in the absolutely wonderful audiobook! A Scottish accent is not easy and these two drop Gaelic words like experts, then flip back to English & American accents without missing a beat. The amount of giddiness was off the charts when the dialogue of the main characters turned into full on banter - so amazing to listen to their talent.Who doesn't love a good spy who retires and the heroine who can bring out the sweetheart hiding beneath the smug, sexy, protective attitude? This is a romance story I'll be adding to my repeat listen pile!

This is an enjoyable read with an enemies to lovers theme, it features a single mum and a hot scot, the banter is witty and snarky and the story flows well. The chemistry between them is palpable and undeniable. I enjoyed how the relationship between Logan the ex-military man and Serena the widow developed despite how her son felt about Logan.It's a sometimes funny well-written story which has a good HEA.I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

For two people who are convinced that relationships are not for them and the snarky retorts being thrown back and forth, the sparks dont just sting they explode into one awesome love story. For Logan and Serena their adventure starts with the idea that they are so not right for each other to a mystery that takes them across the pond to a meet and greet with three more MacTaggart family members and a love story to rock you to the bones. Wonderful imagery, heartfelt romance and a tease for the next love affair.I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

A sexy, funny, action packed story in an unbelievably riotous series. Wonderful characters, witty banter, and hot sex! Doesn't get better than that. And there's more to come!

I preordered this book because the blurb sounded pretty good, and I'd enjoyed previous books by Anna Durand. Unfortunately, this one was only worth 2 1/2 stars to me. The initial tension between the H & h was not witty or clever, but merely his sexual harassment and her b*tchiness. Then, a switch is flipped and now they're so totally compatible, they aren't even discreet in front of her teenaged son. I'm no prude, but it all seemed pretty sudden. Then Logan is supposed to be an ex-spy, but seems to lack good judgement by bringing Serena on a mission. And Serena, formerly a nurse now working as an executive assistant, feels confident watching his six? Give me a break - so much was unbelievable. I could go on, but ultimately I was left feeling greatly disappointed.
