"Miranda Harris is known for her charm, wit, and ability to solve any problem she encounters. But when her brother lands neck-deep in gambling debt to a crafty villain and Miranda is subsequently blackmailed into marrying him, she must enlist the help of the devil himself to save the family honor--and herself. Devilishly handsome Highlander Aden MacTaggert knows next to nothing about the ways of the ton, but he most certainly knows his way around gaming halls and womens' hearts. Still, Aden is not sure how he'll manage to find a Sassenach bride in time to save his family's inheritance. When his almost sister-in-law Miranda comes to him for assistance, he proposes a partnership: She will help him navigate London society and he'll teach her everything about wagering...and winning back her freedom. The beautiful, clever lass intrigues Aden--but is she playing her own game, or are the sparks between them real? He is accustomed to risking his pocket. But betting on Miranda's love is a game he can't afford to lose. . ." --… (mere)

I liked the leads and story BUT I can't get over my anger at the Miranda's brother - Matthew. He played so fast and lose with his sister and i don't feel showed remorse for his actions. What a douche ( )

“Scot Under the Covers” beginning was definitely touch and go and I was damned near tempted to drop this but the Book Gods above decided to answer my prayers by gracing me the perseverance to claim a few more pages then wa-lah! Matthew true intentions and dealings came to light which help lead and created the phenomenal partnership between Aden and Miranda. I immediately fell in love with their banterful relationship filled with stolen kisses, steamy moments, and badassery of our fine ass highlander. This was perfect swoon worthy historical romance I’ve been looking for a while.

I did not like the heroine for maybe the first half or so of the book. She felt judgemental and shrewish to me. She never did impress me, but I liked her more when she had thawed a bit. The plot on the other hand, got a little convoluted in the second half, with lots of scheming, and trying to keep our interest by not revealing the plan to the reader, but even then the plan wasn't all that impressive... and it just didn't hold my interest as well as the first half. But, overall I was still entertained, and I don't regret reading it. ( )

Scot Under the Covers has an excellent cover. And there is, indeed, a Scot within the pages.
However, the plot covers some very familiar territory. Gambling and saving the family's fortunes by allying with a scoundrel, etc.
Souring my enjoyment of this book was the dirty dishtowel brother who caused all this mess. Why are women always cleaning up after the useless men in their lives? Yes, this is reality and Enoch set things up so it was clear the heroine needed to fix things to save herself as well as her brother (an evil blackmailing jerk forcing her into marriage), but I found that I was annoyed at the brother and bored by another iteration of a similar plot.
However, it's likely that I'm simply burned out on historical romance and that readers who haven't read this plot 15 times will love it.

Miranda Harris has a problem. In order to repay a gambling debt her brother she has to marry a man who disgusts her. The only person she can think to ask to help is Aden MacTaggert who is going to be her brother-in-law. She doesn't trust gamblers and Aden is one but she needs his help to deal with her problems and perhaps to find a path away from disaster.

It was a fun read, humourous and fun with two characters who sparked off each other well. ( )
