The review of this Book prepared by Deborah Stoops
A Scotish Laird's sister has made a marriage contract with an English girl unknown to him. She arrives unannounced and trys to convince him that the marriage is what they both need. His idea of romance is a tumble in the hay.He resists and she persues. He doesn't want to want he but cannot help himself. Lots of interfering from relatives makes this humorous and delightfully intricate.
