A feel-good Scottish romantic comedy full of Highland charm, awkward attraction and one very inconvenient cat.

She came to Scotland to mend her heart, not fall for a grumpy Highlander in a kilt.

Gaby’s ten-year relationship is over, her confidence is in pieces, and a cat-sitting job in the Scottish Highlands sounds like the ideal escape. A quiet cottage, a scenic loch, and enough distance from her ex to breathe again. Perfect.

Apart from the cat.

And the village gossip.

And Jack McAllan.

Jack is gruff, gorgeous and far too reminiscent of Gaby’s favourite fictional Scottish hero. He also has a talent for appearing whenever she is at her most flustered, which is often. As Gaby settles into Lochalshie, she finds herself caught between the life she ran from and a place full of whisky, friendship, chaos and the kind of man she really should not trust with her heart.

Highland Fling is the first book in the Highland Books series, a feel-good Scottish romantic comedy perfect for fans of Jenny Colgan, Sophie Kinsella and Jill Mansell.

REVIEWS Icon

"One day, my sweet, we shall buy all our weekly food from Waitrose, Marks and Spencer's and small, artisan producers," that's the promise writer Emma Baird regularly makes to her husband, the vow dependent on plenty of people being kind enough to buy her books and boost her income... There's always a plan B, though... In the meantime, she also copywrites and edits to make ends meet, saving her fiction scribbling for when she has the odd hour or so. She is the author of the Highland Books series, set in the fictional village of Lochalshie (loosely based on Arrochar on the west coast of Scotland), and she is working on a few novels at the moment (she loves writing and HATES rewriting and revising...) Her website is: https://emmabaird.com and she'd be delighted if you dropped by. if you'd do her the ginormous favour of signing up for her newsletter by emailing her at pinkglitterpubs@gmail.com, she'll send you a free short story. The newsletter features a lot of pics of cats and very little in the way of hard sells. Emma lives close to the Bonnie, Bonnie Banks of Loch Lomond with her understanding husband and two VERY demanding cats.
