With few other options, Scarlet Worthington flees from her home in England to the wild Highlands of Scotland to help her sister run a school for ladies. There, Scarlet begins to rebuild her own shattered confidence by recruiting a fierce Campbell warrior to teach her and the students how to protect themselves from villains and scoundrels. The intimidating Aiden Campbell both infuriates Scarlet and ignites a fire inside her as she works closely with him to hone her new skills. Burned in a fierce fire, set by English soldiers, Highland warrior, Aiden Campbell, has finally healed enough to take temporary command of his clan. That's where his focus should be instead of dealing with the feisty, beautiful Sassenach who asks him to teach her students. When Scarlet's past stalks her up into Scotland, her nightmares come alive, and Aiden's lessons are put to the test. With his own ghosts from the past making him despise English women, Aiden fights the inferno of passion that's grown between them, a different kind of wild fire that could prove just as deadly. Each book in the Highland Roses School series is STANDALONE:* A Rose in the Highlands* A Protector in the Highlands… (meer)

Rcvd an ARC at no cost to author..(netgalley) Can I tell you that I loved this book. I love highlanders and had stopped reading this genre because I got caught up in others but I was happy to read this and so enjoyed it, am going to start back on my highlanders, they are soooo sexy. We meet Aiden, and I am assuming that I missed the first book so I intend to look for it. Again let me start again we meet Aiden part of the Campbell clan and he hates anything English, due to his mother abandoning his family to go back. We also have Scarlett and she is English now living in Scotsland with her sister and her brother. While her sister goes back to England to deliver something Aiden and Scarlett are in charge of the Castle and her school "Highland Roses" and this is when the real fun begins. I loved these two, so please do yourself a favor and grab a copy! Enjoy! ( )

A Protector in the Highlands by Heather McCollum
Highland Roses School #2

Scarlet has been left in charge of The Highland Roses School in the Highlands of Scotland while her sister Evelyn heads to England with her new husband. Aidan Campbell has been put in charge of security and he is rightly worried about the English coming in to create upheaval again after all that happened in book one of this series. We learned that Scarlet is leery of men, with good reason as it turns out, but in spite of this leeriness she finds herself drawn to Aidan.

This book continues with the idea that a plot is in play to assassinate the King of England and as the story progresses we learn who the villains are, hear what happened to make Scarlet run to Scotland and what court life is like for those at the top of the royal hierarchy as well as those on the periphery.

A woman is often considered a possession to be used and abused by husbands and those of higher station as well as by fathers and brothers thinking to use them as collateral. A woman is weaker than a man so has little recourse. That said…the women in The Highland Roses School are taught more than how to serve tea and how to read and write – they are taught to defend themselves and work together to thwart the villains before the end of the book.

Fun romance that at times seemed a bit unbelievable BUT my daughter, a historian, did set me straight and told me that women did fight and did do most jobs men did and have done so through the ages even though not as much is mentioned about them as should be.

Did I enjoy this book? Yes
Do I want to read more in this series? Yes

Thank you to NetGalley and Entangled Amara for the ARC – This is my honest review.
