His Scholar
(2026)(The Scholar and the Scot)
(The first book in the Outrageous Oliphants series)A novel by Caroline Lee
A wallflower scholar. A kilted Scotsman with a famous secret. One house party about to get very educational.
Miss Olive L'arbre came to the Dumpkins house party planning to hide behind her archaeological journal and avoid dull lords…instead, she's finding herself repeatedly distracted by Phineas Oliphant. The man is obscenely handsome, owns a kilt he has absolutely no business wearing that well, and—most alarming of all—actually listens when she talks about Roman rooflines. This is not how house parties are supposed to go.
Phineas Oliphant is charming, brilliant, and entirely too interested in a shy scholar who snaps at him over French etymology and absolutely refuses to admit she keeps staring at his sporran. He's also hiding several rather large secrets.
Including the one about the Roman balls.
When Phineas invites her to a scandalous midnight rendezvous in their hostess's study to show her something truly spectacular, Olive realizes her handsome Scottish dinner partner writes under a rather stupid pseudonym…and possesses a pair of sphaera she absolutely must examine.
They say you should never meet your heroes. Olive is beginning to suspect that advice assumes your hero won't look quite so good in a kilt.
Fans of Roman ball jokes, kilts with questionable structural integrity, and heroines who fall in love over roofline schematics will feel right at home.
Tropes: Wallflower heroine • Scottish hero • Secret pen name • Fangirl meets idol • Nerdy heroine • Partners in mystery • Forced proximity • Witty banter • Midnight rendezvous
*******
These Outrageous Oliphants are the descendants of Caroline's medieval Scots, and are just as much fun: Can Phineas, Maxwell, Lysander, Athena, and Leonidas Oliphant find love at the same house party? Probably not, but we're still going to have a rip-roaring good time following along!
Heat Level: Steamy Tone: Witty, Warm, Comedy Series Type: Standalone with familial connections Ending: HEA POV: Dual POV, Third Person Content Notes: Innuendo, puns, empowered heroine
Genre: Historical Romance
