Best Laid Plaids

Written by Ella Stainton

Narrated by Cornell Collins

Scotland, 1928

Dr. Ainsley Graham is cultivating a reputation as an eccentric. Two years ago, he catastrophically ended his academic career by publicly claiming to talk to ghosts. When Joachim Cockburn, a WWI veteran studying the power of delusional thinking, arrives at his door, Ainsley quickly catalogues him as yet another tiresome Englishman determined to mock his life's work.

But Joachim is tenacious and openhearted, and Ainsley's intrigued despite himself. He agrees to motor his handsome new friend around to Scotland's most unmistakable hauntings. If he can convince Joachim, Ainsley might be able to win back his good name and then some. He knows he's not crazy-he just needs someone else to know it, too.

Joachim is one thesis away from realizing his dream of becoming a psychology professor, and he's not going to let anyone stop him, not even an enchanting ginger with a penchant for tartan and lewd jokes. But as the two travel across Scotland's lovely-and definitely haunted-landscape, Joachim's resolve starts to melt. And he's beginning to think that an empty teaching post without the charming Dr. Graham would make a very poor consolation prize indeed . . .

Contains mature themes.

Reviews for Best Laid Plaids

[S. R. J. · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

They're dumb. They're both so dumb I wanted to reach through the page to shake some sense into their thick skulls.
Sweet, sweet miscommunication.
The romance is surprisingly sweet and touching, it's really apparent how nicely they complement each other, how well they fit into each other's life.
Also, the horniness. Very good content. Gripping. Good for them.
And the ghost stories are very interesting too. Not usually my thing, and yet, I was engrossed.
All in all, I really enjoyed this story.
Wonderfully narrated. Cornell Collins is my absolute favorite narrator for this type of book. He gives it his all, and the accents are top notch as always.
