Publisher Description

Grumpy. Meet Sunshine. She's American. He's Scottish. She's looking for a fresh start. He's returning to rediscover his roots.

Harper Scott is starting over. She's signed up for a work-for-hire Scottish Pub Experience only to discover a half-naked and irritatingly handsome Scotsman in the apartment she's rented. It's Christmas season, there's no room at the inn, and the two are both stubborn enough to refuse to give up the rental.

Now, with the pub being threatened by developers, and Harper's fresh new start tainted by a decidedly grumpy Scotsman determined to make her leave, Harper must decide what's more important – beating the Scotsman at his own game or saving the pub in time for Christmas. Let the (Highland) games begin.

Author's Note: a stubborn American takes on a grumpy Scotsman in this stand-alone, small-town, Scottish romance novella. A bit of banter, war kittens, a pub makeover, and a heartwarming happily ever after makes this the perfect Christmas treat.
