A HISTORY OF HOT MEN IN KILTS 

It’s as iconic a piece of attire as the ten gallon Stetson, the Indian sari or the kimono from Japan. Hell, it’s up there in the pantheon of Cool Things to Wear with Coco Chanel’s original LBD. It will forever be associated with Scotland, even though its origins are oft-disputed and prone to cause heated arguments. Men who wear it for the first time think they’ve suddenly morphed into Mel Gibson in Braveheart and immediately start banging on about ‘Freedom’. And it drives lots of women – including me – crazy at the thought of ‘What Lies Beneath’…

I’m talking, of course, about the kilt.

Kissing Games (Pre-Order TODAY!) She might have m Kissing Games (Pre-Order TODAY!)

She might have made it to Hollywood, but he’s about to show her what she’s missed…

When actress Valentina arrives in Scotland to film Braveheart 2, she’s at breaking point. Driven by demons, she’s worked without a break since she was a teen and can’t stop now. Everyone she loves depends on her. But something’s missing. Despite all the glitter and glamor, she’s never really lived.

Bodyguard Charlie’s lived too much. With looks and charm, he should have it all, but he’s broken. Estranged from his family, sacked from his job, and with nothing left to lose, he flies to the Highlands to help his best friend protect Kinloch castle from a crazy Hollywood film crew. But falling hard for a movie star isn’t in his contract.

Valentina’s never met anyone like Charlie. When he suggests she take a holiday from life, she’s tempted to step out of her comfort zone and live a little. He sweeps her into a world of skinny dipping, laughter and blinding passion. But as fun crosses the line into love, disaster bursts their bubble. Can they let go of the past and find a future together? Or is this just a Highland fling?

Kissing Games is a steamy, laugh-out-loud romantic comedy, with no cheating, no cliff-hanger, and a guaranteed happy ever after (HEA).

Pre-order available now! Link in bio!

And if you fancy reading the meet cute, it's available for newsletter subscribers next week!

Sometimes, this is a very good thing. However, there are times when I wish I could simply and gracefully let things go, but I can't! 

Does this happen to you too? And do you now have a Disney song stuck in your head? 🙄

The first review of Kissing Games is in! "...Evi The first review of Kissing Games is in! 

"...Evie Alexander is an insta-read for me ever since I read Highland Games. Kissing Games, Book 3 of the Kinloch series did not disappoint!
As with all of Evie's books, Kissing Games provides a romantic comedy with serious heat and a whole lot of heart!
It initially appears that Charlie and Valentina are very different from one another, but as the story grows we see that they are more alike than we thought. The 'Teenage Years" challenge is the beginning of their love story and the beginning of who they are meant to be.
The growth of these characters is emotional and very heartfelt, something that I love about all of Evie's characters.
Charlie is so sexy, charming, and laugh out loud funny whereas Valentina is beautiful, guarded, and driven, both however, love fiercely and want to be the best version of themselves.
If you are looking for some epic steamy scenes, hilarious grandmothers, loyal friends (human and dogs), a dragon tattoo, and teenage poetry this book will check all of those boxes..."

Thank you, Teresa!!!

After three years of friendship, and hundreds of h After three years of friendship, and hundreds of hours of phone calls, I finally got to meet margaret_amatt_author in real life.

I honestly thought the universe might implode.

Margaret lives in the Highlands of Scotland (she's the perfect beta reader for the Kinloch series lol), and I live in deepest darkest Somerset, a nine hour drive away. It was a bit of a one off that she was nearby, and she abandoned her family to spend six hours with me in the Smut Hut.

Highlights:
Margaret screaming when she met my ten year old daughter because she wasn't expecting a child that much taller than her
My Hot Scot calendar
Margaret getting to hold Cookout Carnage, which is dedicated to her. (and then I forgot to give it to her...)
Talking non stop for six hours
Laughing non stop for six hours
Being able to see each other's facial expressions and rude hand gestures

Lowlights:
Having to say goodbye.

I am crying as I write this. My heart is so fucking full right now and I'm so grateful to have this amazing woman in my life. I only wish we lived closer to each other. Meeting Margaret just hammers home just how many deep and incredible friendships I have made through this amazing book community.

Later this summer I'm flying to Ireland for less than 48 hours to meet @lyndseygallagherauthor for the first time, and I dream about flying further afield to meet @juliajarrettauthor @kelly_kay_books and @sarahlinauthor who are family to me. I know that when I meet them I'm going to scream like a banshee with excitement and then burst into tears. If I think about all the friends I have on Instagram and around the world that I want to meet,  the list is bloody endless. You're all so fucking epic and I adore each and every one of you.

It's always worrying meeting someone in real life, in case everything you've built up, somehow doesn't work face to face. Meeting Margaret was the opposite of that. The time went by in a blink of an eye and everything was so easy and natural. I'm just so emotional that we might not get to meet up like this again for a very long time.

Here's to friendship. To people who truly see, understand and appreciate who we are X
