Her Scottish King (book 2)

New ALC Review from Dana

Her Scottish King

(Scottish Wolves #2)

By Theodora Taylor

Narrated by Lacy Laurel & Will Watt

I haven’t read anything paranormal from Theodora Taylor, so I was super excited to receive this ALC from Valentine PR in exchange for an honest review. Her writing style makes it easy to feel like you are in the middle of the story. Her writing is descriptive, easily helping me picture everything. The characters are well-developed and interesting. I love the premise of a werewolf king who is basically masquerading as a rugby player. Definitely makes for a unique storyline. Magnus Scotswolf is a prideful wolf but has a big heart. Especially when it comes to Tara Hamilton. I love stories where a male MC falls first and hard for the female MC. It lets me see a vulnerable side to men that we don’t always get to see in real life. Tara is so quirky and sassy, and I love that about her. Their HEA was a fun one to listen to.

Since I’m reviewing the audiobook version, I must be honest. I would not recommend the audiobook version and suggest reading the book instead. Will Watt was incredible. Magnus is a cocky and demanding alpha, and Will embodied that perfectly. His Scottish brogue was on point. He expertly portrayed every emotion and made the smeggsy times smeggsier. I always enjoy Will’s narration and the way he brings a story and character(s) to life. Unfortunately, I cannot say the same about Lacy Laurel. I feel bad saying that because it’s clear she gave it her all. The attempt at a Scottish accent was poor, unfortunately. I’m not good with accents myself, so I’m not judging. I’m sure it’s not always easy to replicate certain accents. However, for me, that took away from the story. In fairness to the fact that this is an audiobook review, not just a review on the story, I feel I must go down in stars to compensate for that. While the story and Will’s narration are each a 5, I would only give Lacy’s portrayal a 2 in my personal opinion. I do however think she portrayed Tara’s strengths well.
