Emily Fitzgerald and her family have been burdened with scandal since her bother, Richard, attempted to murder their half brother, Ewan. Her chances to make a good match seem hopeless but a top bachelor proposes to her. However, Emily has always been determined to marry for love. Fearing more scandal for turning down the proposal, she decides to vacation with Ewan in Scotland. She would be enjoying her vacation but Ewan's cousin, Jaime, and her are constantly arguing. Emily highly doubts that her and the brash scot will ever get along.

This book is the sequel to a previous Avon True Romance, Anna and the Duke, but it's not really necessary to read that one to understand this one. Emily and the Scot is a watered down but well done type of love/hate story. Although Emily and Jamie never really hated each other their personalities just grate against one another's. The characters were vibrant and the romance managed to remain interesting throughout the entire book. I also really enjoyed the ending. The author showed great restraint in making it a happy but realistic one. Emily and the Scot and Anna and the Duke are two of the best books this series has to offer and I highly recommend them both.

I have only read three of this series, but I do think this one has been the best so far. The mishaps and constant misunderstandings between Lady Emily and Jamie are often hilarious, and yet often sincere as well. By the end, you realize that they are so perfect for each other and it drove me crazy that they didn't see it!
Emily moves to Scottland to escape the rumors sure to spread after she turns down a man of high standings and for her love of anything Scottish. She should be grateful anyone would want her to begin with, but doesn't want a boring life. She moves in with her 1/2 brother Ewan (From Anna and the Duke) and meets his cousin (from the other side of the family-he and Emily are not related) anbd they take an instant disliking to one another. Now, you know they end up together, after all this is a romance, so I urge you to reasd this and discover how. I'm sure you will laugh often and be moved as well. I know I was!

The Avon true romance books for teens, are great! I have read all of the books in the series and I highly recomend all of them. Emily and the Scot was one of the better books. I won't tell you what the book is about, because I don't want to spoil it! I loved this book and I think any teen lookin for a little romance, without it being smut, would enjoy this book.
Ps. Read samantha and the cowboy (I think it's farby the best one so far).

Okay so I accidently read this before Anna and the Duke... oops! I loved it. I love Emily and her idea of the perfect man: "What I want is a young man with the mind of a scholar, heart of a warrior, and the soul of a poet."
Jaime was all that and more. But when Emily first sees him she mistakes him for a servant and asks him to carry her luggage. His hatred for the English that he thought he had gotten over came back all at once.
Will they be together at the end? Of course! We all know that. It's still a great book even with a predictable ending.

I loved reading this book. It wasn't the first book I've read out of the Avon True Romance series, but it deffinetly was my favorite. Kathryn Smith held my attention throughout the entire book and I wasn't disappointed in the end.

Emily Fitzgerald is eighteen years old. Her brother, Richard, attempted to harm their half brother Ewan, after Ewan inherited their father's title of dukedom. Emily just received a proposal from the Viscount Stanton, and refuses because she does not love him. Rather than facing gossip being spread about her by society, she decides to visit Ewan and his wife, Anna. There, she meets Ewan's cousin, Jamie McLaughlin. Emily mistakes him for a servant, leaving them to a fine start. They argue about almost anything known to man. But can there be something deeper, something that neither Emily nor Jamie realize? I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoyed Anna and the Duke, or for fans of the Avon True Romance series.

This was the first book I read in the Avon True Romance series, and is now my favorite book. I felt connected with Emily, and would have done the same thing she did. It is extremely well written, and I would recommened it to anyone who can get wrapped up in a book about teen romance.

This was a great book, and kind of a follow up story to Anna and the Duke.

This time however the girl is Emily Fitzgerald, Ewan's half sister, and she has come to Scotland to visit Ewan and to get away from the rumors that are circling around her in England due to a refused proposal. When she gets there she sees Jamie MacLaughlin, and a series of events happens which gets the two to hating each other.

Jamie MacLaughlin, is star struck the first time he sees Emily, and knows that she is the most beautiful girl he has ever seen, until he meets her and the two don't exactly hit it off.

What two fail to realize is that they fuss and fight, but are attracted to each other, especially after their first kiss when they can't stop thinking about each other. But will they realize that in time for their romance to have a chance? Or will they fall apart due to each of their own stubborness?

I recommend this book and all the others in this series to anyone who like historical fiction romance.

I really liked this wonderful book. My school's musical this year also takes place in Scotland, so this book really helped me to imagine what the scenery is like. It was also a really interesting book, and conclusion (in a way) to Anna and the Duke.

after reading Anna and the Duke, a book that had so much passion and scandal, i was really looking forward to reading emily and the Scot. but i was disapointed. How can two people who totally disslike each other fall in love?? Anna and the Duke had scandal, a mad and jealous brother, with the urge to kill..Emily and the Scot had...a pig and a fence?? It was good , but not the best Avon True Romance novel.
