Summary:
The Scot Beds His Wife is the next lush, captivating Victorian romance in the Victorian Rebels series by Kerrigan Byrne.
They’re rebels, scoundrels, and blackguards—dark, dashing men on the wrong side of the law. But for the women who love them, a hint of danger only makes the heart beat faster.
Gavin St. James, Earl of Thorne, is a notorious Highlander and an unrelenting Lothario who uses his slightly menacing charm to get what he wants—including too many women married to other men. But now, Gavin wants to put his shady past behind him...more or less. When a fiery lass who is the heiress to the land he wishes to possess drops into his lap, he sees a perfectly delicious opportunity...
A marriage most convenient
Samantha Masters has come back to Scotland, in a pair of trousers, and with a whole world of dangerous secrets from her time spent in the Wild West trailing behind her. Her only hope of protection is to marry—and to do so quickly. Gavin is only too willing to provide that service for someone he finds so disturbingly irresistible. But even as danger approaches, what begins as a scandalous proposition slowly turns into an all-consuming passion. And Gavin discovers that he will do whatever is necessary to keep the woman he has claimed as his own…

Review:
Rating: 1 out of 5 stars
I wasn't able to finish the book. I didn't like it or the swearing in it. The word fuck is mentioned more than 50 times and we are talking about a historical romance. It didn't feel like one. The heroine says that word a lot. It's the late 1800's not the 1900's. The heroine's behavior is more suitable to the modern era rather than the time the story is supposed to happen.
I stopped at 35% and by that point, the two main characters had barely seen each other. The scot was not going to bed his wife anytime soon. I didn't like that I had seen so far from both of them. I feel like the blurb is telling half-truths. I wouldn't buy the book for me or a friend.
