About the Scandalous Highlanders series

Scandalous Highlanders is Suzanne Enoch's move into Scottish-set historical romance, following a cast of Highland lairds and clan-connected women navigating the culture clash between rugged Scotland and genteel English society. One Hot Scot (2013) opens the series, followed the same year by The Devil Wears Kilts, then Rogue with a Brogue (2014), Mad, Bad, and Dangerous in Plaid (2015) and Some Like It Scot (2015) closing out the run.

The series' punning, pop-culture-inflected titles signal a lighter, more contemporary comic voice than Enoch's Regency ballroom series, with the Highland setting and English-versus-Scottish culture clash providing fresh terrain for the marriage-of-convenience and reformed-rake structures she's built her career on.

Frequently asked questions

How many books are in the Scandalous Highlanders series?

Five: One Hot Scot (2013), The Devil Wears Kilts (2013), Rogue with a Brogue (2014), Mad, Bad, and Dangerous in Plaid (2015), and Some Like It Scot (2015).

Is Scandalous Highlanders different from Suzanne Enoch's Regency series?

Yes -- it's set in the Scottish Highlands rather than London ballrooms, following lairds and clan-connected women rather than the English peerage of her earlier series.

Do I need to read Scandalous Highlanders in order?

Not strictly -- each book follows a different couple with a self-contained romance, though publication order is the conventional sequence.

Is Scandalous Highlanders connected to Enoch's No Ordinary Hero or Wild Wicked Highlanders series?

No -- despite the similar Scottish setting and titling style, Scandalous Highlanders is a standalone series, distinct from Enoch's later No Ordinary Hero and Wild Wicked Highlanders books.

Is a sixth Scandalous Highlanders book planned?

None has been announced as of August 2026; the series appears complete.
