All Hamish McKenna wants is to grieve in peace. But when a familiar face from his past—the one person he never wants to see again—invades his town, Hamish’s fragile equilibrium unravels. Dr. August Hawthorne, with his detached indifference and reluctant smiles, stirs an unwelcome mix of arousal and annoyance, shattering any hope of solace.Determined to reclaim his territory and his sanity, Hamish wages a war of relentless vexations against August, each scheme crafted to chip away at the doctor’s patience and pride… a game of cat and mouse he cannot possibly lose. But when August turns the tables with unexpected honesty and a siege of sensuality, Hamish finds himself slowly disarmed by the very mouse he’s been hunting.
August has spent his life trying—and failing—to forget Hamish McKenna, the adolescent he pined for and ultimately drove away. After years as a physician in Her Majesty’s navy, circumstances have forced him ashore, landing him in a remote village and into the lives of his two young sons.
As a physician, August can set a broken bone, stitch a gaping wound, and bring a man back from the brink of death with steady hands and unshakable resolve. But faced with two surly lads and their mischievous imaginary friend, he is utterly lost—adrift in uncharted waters with no map, no compass, and no clue how to navigate the storm of parenthood. Worse, the object of his every lustful dream and his deepest regret now lives right next door—and will stop at nothing to drive him away.
Can love survive when every move feels like a battle and every touch a surrender?
Second Chance for a Scot is a steamy, enemies-to-lovers romance featuring working-class heroes and light-hearted shenanigans. If you love witty banter, irresistible tension, and a heartfelt journey of longing, hope, and resilience, you won't want to miss this compelling tale!
