Lost Secrets of the Scottish Castle
ByPublisher Description
When Pax McKell’s brother Lennox asks her for help to fund his hairbrained scheme to renovate a tumbledown Scottish castle, she fears it will only end in disaster.
But a lifetime of sister guilt, complicated family relationships and a general sense of malaise are enough for her to ignore her instincts. The castle in question, Dunaire Castle, was the seventeenth-century home to their ancestor, the Earl George McKell, so Pax can understand Lennox’s romantic notion that they should be the rightful owners and the ones to love it back to life.
Slowly and in ways Pax could never have expected, Dunaire Castle begins to reveal its secrets; secrets and choices that have shaped the lives of generations of her family. As the McKell story opens up to her, Pax realises that it’s in her hands to change the course of history and with it the course of her own life – if only she can work out how…

2.5
“I really wanted to love The Lost Secrets of the Scottish Castle, especially with the beautiful setting and the promise of family secrets, but it didn't quite come together for me. The Scottish atmosphere was easily my favourite part, but I found the pacing slow and had a hard time fully connecting with the characters. There were moments that kept me reading, but overall I was hoping for a bit more emotional impact and intrigue than I got. It's not a bad read by any means, just one that didn't quite click with me. Thank you NetGalley and Boldwood Books for the ARC.”
