Publisher's summary

Life isn't going as planned, and Sadie Middleton is rethinking her whole future. Thankfully, one thing is staying the same: She's able to share her love of quilting with her grandmother, Gigi. The two of them enter a contest and win an all-expenses-paid trip to the Kilts and Quilts retreat in the Scottish Highlands. But their victory turns hollow when Gigi passes away before they can go.

Sadie is grief stricken, but her brother convinces her to take the trip to Gandiegow anyway. There Sadie meets a charming circle of quilters who remind her of her grandmother and Ross Armstrong, a handsome fisherman who brings a smile to her face.

Newly single, Ross intends to enjoy his freedom. That plan goes awry as he comes to know Sadie, and a surprising spark is lit. Unfortunately some well-meaning folks want to protect Ross from getting hurt again and are determined to keep him and the American lass apart.

The Trouble with Scotland

I have enjoyed all of Patience Griffin’s Kilts & Quilts books but I especially enjoyed the audio version of The Trouble with Scotland. I look forward to the next volume!

Engaging and Encouraging

The narrator continues to do a fantastic job voicing all the characters, and switching between American accents and the Scottish burr.
Sadie and her brother are quickly drawn into the Gandigow community, although it’s tougher for Sadie due to her illness, shyness, and grief.
The landscape descriptions are beautiful!
I really want to go to Scotland!
Sadie takes comfort in the land and learns she can be who she really wants to be in Scotland, but attracting a certain man is quite a challenge. As always, I would prefer a bit let chase and angst, a more of “let’s see how this is really going to work out.”
I applaud how easily some newcomers can readjust their lives to settle in a new country.
This is an engaging and encouraging addition to the series.

Loved this one!!

I've never written a review before, never wanted to. I laughed out loud, and,cried our loud. To me, that makes this a great book. Now I'm so attached to these characters, I want this series to never end.

Sadie is my favorite!

I absolutely adored this book! Sadie is my new favorite! She is sweet and insecure in the beginning, but finds herself in the best way!!! Ross is perfect for her! There souls were meant to be!

Kilts and Quilts

I loved this series, but by this fifth book, the plot was too predictable. Having developed many diverse and interesting characters, the author could have had a more interesting storyline. The book had great narration.

Another Kilts and Quilts Love

I like the storyline but my issue is with the narrator of novel. It is the same narrator as the other books in this series and for most of it, she is fine. But her accent for North Carolina is the same one she used for someone from Texas in the previous book. Yes, both are Southern accents but they are very different. Southern accents vary greatly depending on where you are from in the South. Even in the same state, they can vary greatly. This little issue really bothered my enjoyment of this audiobook.
