Bad Boys in Kilts
by Donna Kauffman
2006
This trio of linked Chisholm brother romances serves up a pub owner, a distillery man, a poetic sheepherder, and three very different women ready to upset their plans. Scotland, banter, and heat do the rest.
The Great Scot
by Donna Kauffman
2007
Reality-show producer Erin McGregor finds the perfect Scottish castle and the last man she should want in chieftain Dylan Chisholm. He needs her money, not her chaos, but resisting either proves difficult.
Series background & context
The Chisholm Brothers books sit right on the line between linked family saga and playful Scottish romance collection. The family at the center is big, loud, rooted in place, and impossible to ignore, which makes the series feel connected even when the structure changes from book to book.
Bad Boys in Kilts introduces several brothers through separate romances, and that tells you a lot about the overall vibe. Pub life, a family distillery, a sheepherder with a poet's heart, local teasing, and stubborn attraction all matter as much as plot mechanics. Then The Great Scot widens the canvas with clan land, a castle, and an American reality-show producer who arrives with money and complications.
The setting is key. These stories live in the Highlands, where community memory is long and everybody has an opinion. Kauffman uses that to good effect. The brothers may look like classic rogues on the surface, but the series is really about belonging, duty, and what happens when strong-willed outsiders crash into an old family system that is not going anywhere.
There is plenty of charm here.
If you like Scottish romance with humor, heat, and a family that can go from meddling to loyal in a heartbeat, the Chisholm Brothers books are worth a look.
