Here's a little teaser for those of you who are waiting so patiently! As you can see, the Duke of Warnick (the titular Scot in the Dark) has opinions:
He raised a brow. “It's a children’s love story.”
Lillian gaped at him. “It’s Romeo and Juliet.”
“Babes without any sense. Killing themselves over infatuation.”
“It’s considered one of the greatest love stories of all time.”
He lifted one shoulder and let it drop. “Unless...more

1.5 Rating Revised.
I want to start off by saying I love Sarah MacLean's books and she never disappoints,. Well almost never, but this one time. Yes, this is a first, I found this one Historical to be lacking.
I'm not going into the synopsis of the story as it's pretty self explanatory on the blurb. But I'll just say what I like and what I didn't in this review.
Liked:
First of all Sarah Maclean can write and she does it well as always. The flow of the book a...more
Don't be fooled by the historical setting of this book because the things that the heroine went through felt very current. The idea of someone going through a very public humiliation like what Lillian went through in this was heartrending. This is a book that challenges your notion about scandals, slut-shaming, forgiveness, and redemption.
Ms. MacLean made Lillian a very sympathetic character to me. I normally would have a problem with a heroine who professed to love someone else durin...more
My complete and utter frustration with both the heroine and hero and all their unnecessary drama and self-denial ruined this for me.
No one had told Lillian Hargrove such a thing, apparently.
4.5 stars
I so adore Sarah MacLean's storytelling! A Scot in the Dark has all the humor, all the romance, and all the passion I crave, and know I'll get, when reading one of her books. In all of her stories, especially this series, Ms. MacLean puts a historic twist on modern scandals, but her twists seem so much more delectable and entertaining because of 'proper society's' ridiculous rea...more
This book basically consisted of gleeful giggles while slapping my kindle on my knees.
And dreaming about Scottish knees. And drooling over Scottish knees. Why oh why do men wear pants when they could be wearing kilts?! I mean, it’s a reasonable request….from most women (and some men). The Scots know what they’re doing to us, right?! Killing us with their sexy knees!
Her gaze traveled to the edge of the fabric, drinking in the curves and dips of his knees. She swall...more

As much as I did like A Scot In The Dark I feel like my dislikes are going to overwhelm what I liked about it, I'll try to keep this review balanced. While I enjoy angst as much as anyone else, I have a certain level of dislike for angst that comes with self loathing... From both characters. Self loathing can turn what was was a deliciously torturous romance filled with unfulfilled longing to a frustrating story about two characters...more

But hey, it's a new book, and it has a fookin' Scottish hero. Let's see if there's a way to resurrect this series.
I didn't like this as much as the previous book and I'd thought I'd love this one. I think it was the nonstop way the Duke, Alec, kept leaving Lily and telling her no to her feelings. He was one big tease.
Lily is the ward of the Duke of Warnick and she's caused a scandal by being the gf of a douchey artist guy who is about to show a nude painting of her to the world. Problem is the douchey artist has reneged on his promise of marriage and she never gave permission for her nude portrait...more

Historical romance fans, I have a confession: this is my first book by Sarah MacLean. I know, I know. Shocking! I've really moved away from the genre for the most part, but I was looking for an author that I could explore and get me more integrated into reading it more. My first impression was a good one. While I didn't love this partic...more
I love my historical romance reads, but sometimes, I just want to jump into my book and punch a few aristocrats in the nose. The gentlemen thrive on the power they wield by making women dependant on their good nature. Then, we have ladies who use their wiles to manipulate, intimidate and discombobulate her opponents to achieve her place in society. A title holds power, money helps you stand out in a crowd and if your witty barbs hit before the ret...more

This book had all the ingredients that should spell a good romance, but unfortunately it was executed poorly. I love the concept of this series by taking modern day scandals and adapting them for the Victorian era, and I have generally loved Sarah Maclean's series concepts and characters a lot. But unfortunately I've really found the two books in this series lacking.
The positives:
It was a fun book. It had really fun supporting characters like the Talbot sisters, I liked seeing West and...more

An unwilling Scottish duke, a surprise English ward (of said duke), a nude painting (of said ward)—ring the IT'S A SCANDAL! alarm, folks.
I wanted to love A Scot in the Dark. I thought I would. I enjoyed some parts of it. Maybe? Because problems.
I had to suspend my disbelief that a duke's solicitor would keep a ward the duke inherited along with his title a secret for, what, three or four years. Yeah. 'Don't bother me with inessentials' just doesn't cut it somehow. The duke gets the n...more
A Café au Drambuie is a Scottish coffee. To prepare you will need a heated wine glass. Add 3 dessertspoons of Drambuie Whiskey and stir in one level dessertspoon of light brown sugar. Add fresh strong coffee leaving about an inch of glass exposed below the rim. Stir until sugar dissolves. Next place teaspoon upside down over glass and slowly pour double cream over spoon so that it floats on the surface. Enjoy! Today I am breaking my review down into...more
Narrated by Justine Eyre
Historical romance fans who enjoy the “guardian falls in love with his ward” stories, as well as a good dose of tongue in cheek humor based on improbable facts and play on words, will be the most intrigued by A Scot in the Dark. That said, this story provides an interesting twist to this common trope by presenting us with a ward who is more a woman (in her twenties) than a girl.
As for the narration,...more

In the second book of the Scandal & Scoundrel series, Sarah MacLean takes a ruined lady and pairs her up with probably the most unlikely man to restore her reputation. After being fooled by a scumbag artist and her nude portraits are exposed to the public, Miss Lillian Hargrove doesn’t know what she is going to do. Her life is essentially ruined and her reputation is in tatters. She becomes so desperate that she seeks out the help of the Duke of Warnick, a Scotsman who is more than a littl...more
A Scot in the Dark is the second book in the Scandal and Scoundrel's trilogy and somehow I missed out on reading this book and had just realized it so when I saw this book available at my local library, I just knew that I had to pick it up and I am so glad that I did. I will admit that I adore Sarah MacLean, but some of her books have been a hit or miss and mostly due to reading engagement. So I decided that audiobooks are the BEST way to g...more
So much! So many feelings.
The plot makes it clear that the inspiration for this story comes from the various photo leaks that took place in the recent history. This book comes at a great time. When a lot us around are blaming the people whose private moments were disclosed by unscrupulous hackers, this book completely sides with the sufferers.
As it should.

The writing, as always, was great. I just had too many issues with the heroine that stopped me from adoring this particular book.
That being said, just because it didn't work for me, doesn't mean it won't for you... give it a try!
Review posted on Got Fiction?
Note:
I've noticed a lot of people (via my Twitter stream) don't like the inspiration for this story/series. For those who don't know, it's basically 'if TMZ existed during the Regency.' There's a mention of the Kardashians having been a part of the original inspiration as well. Some readers see this and instantly think that the whole book is a rip off of Keeping Up With the Kardashians. It's not. In fact, Avon has another series called Keeping Up with the Cavend...more

Lonesome Lily turned Scandalous Siren
Miss Lillian Harwood has lived much of her life alone in a gilded cage, longing for love and companionship. When an artist offers her pretty promises and begs her to pose for a scandalous portrait, Lily doesn't hesitate . . . until the lying libertine leaves her in disgrace. With the painting now public, Lily has no choice but to turn to the one man who might save her from ruin.
Highland Devil turned Halfhearted Duke
The Duke of Warnick loathes all things English, none more so than the aristocracy. It does not matter that the imposing Scotsman has inherited one of the most venerable dukedoms in Britain—he wants nothing to do with it, especially when he discovers that the unwanted title comes with a troublesome ward, one who is far too old and far too beautiful to be his problem.
Tartan Comes to Town
Warnick arrives in London with a single goal: get the chit married and see her become someone else's problem, then return to a normal, quiet life in Scotland. It's the perfect plan, until Lily declares she'll only marry for love . . . and the Scot finds that there is one thing in England he likes far too much . . .
