Roxbury Scions #1
By Paige Edwards
This book follows Cairstie Henderson, the youngest daughter in the family, as she deals with the fallout of her ex-boyfriend being caught in a horse racing scandal. No one cares that they broke up before everything broke. Her life as a model and social media influencer is over. And her friends, not so friendly anymore. When a chance at an unexpected inheritance allows Cairstie to escape the scandal and her brother-in-law's friend Sheridan she jumps at the chance to remove herself to a remote Scottish Isle. Now she just needs to figure out how to live without all the amenities she's used to. First up, washing her own clothes and making meals.
When Sheridan turns up on the same island as Cairstie they both have a big problem. Cairstie with Sheridan's role in her recent breakup; and Sheridan because Cairstie knows his true identity, and she could blow his undercover assignment.
But soon, both are forced to admit that there is more to the other and that their first preconceived impressions just may have been wrong. This actually a very good thing because someone is trying to kill them. And the reason behind all this suspense is because there is a traitor hidden among the locals and they could very well bring Great Britain to her knees if Cairstie and Sheridan canna figure out who is behind these attempts.
This book had the perfect amount of tension to keep the suspense relevant in this enemies-to-lovers story. I loved seeing how Cairstie changed and grew throughout the story and would love to revisit these characters again.
About the Book:
An intercepted message. Missing MI6 agents. And a traitor hiding in plain sight.
To receive her inheritance and escape a scandal not of her making, wealthy socialite Cairstie Henderson moves to a small town in the Scottish Isles, far from the city lights and runways she frequents. There, she encounters the Irish spy responsible for the public breakup that made her the laughingstock of the Scottish Borders.
Sheridan, a hardened MI6 agent, is on an undercover assignment to locate missing operatives and the mysterious traitor passing top-secret information to the Chinese. Unfortunately, there’s one Cairstie Henderson knows his true identity—and she detests him.
But when Cairstie surprises an intruder, she seeks the one man who can protect her, Sheridan. Over time, these opposites give way to attraction that eventually blossoms into love, but with a dangerous criminal stalking their steps and intrigue around every corner, will Cairstie and Sheridan obtain their happily ever after, or will they end up dead?
