Review of Almost a Scot by Jade Lee

Almost a Scot by Jade Lee
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Really enjoyed this entire series. Reuben’s character development is amazing! Can’t wait for the next story in this series!

I was utterly enchanted by Jade Lee’s novel, Almost A Scot. Set against the backdrop of 19th-century London, this book weaves a tale of intrigue, passion, and unexpected love.

🔥 Iseabail Spalding, our spirited heroine, is on the run, desperate to escape her oppressive uncle’s clutches. Her disguise as an empty-headed debutante in London is flawless—until the enigmatic Reuben Bates discovers her secret. Reuben, a scoundrel with ambition, demands her compliance or threatens to expose her.

💕 The chemistry between Iseabail and Reuben crackles off the pages. Their banter is sharp, their attraction undeniable. But this isn’t your typical historical romance. Lee masterfully crafts characters who defy conventions. Iseabail is no damsel in distress; she’s resourceful, intelligent, and fiercely independent. And Reuben, despite his dubious intentions, reveals hidden depths that make him irresistible.

🌟 The pacing is perfect, with twists and turns that kept me eagerly turning pages. Lee’s vivid descriptions transport you to bustling London streets, grand ballrooms, and the rugged Scottish Highlands. The tension between our protagonists builds steadily, culminating in a heart-pounding climax that left me breathless.

📚 Almost A Scot is the sixth installment in the Lords of the Masquerade series, but it stands alone beautifully. Whether you’re a longtime fan or a newcomer, this book will sweep you away on an unforgettable adventure.
