Laird Oliphant’s sons have no choice but to marry. Without an heir, he’s gathered his sons—his six illegitimate sons, all born in the same year—and declared whoever presents him with a grandson first will become the next Highland laird. Reactions are...mixed.But to Finn Oliphant, this is exactly the news he’s been waiting for. You see, he’s already chosen his wife: the vivacious and intelligent Fiona MacIan, whom he fell in love with last year. She’s in love with him, so this whole “marriage ultimatum” thing should be easy-peasy. He’ll invite her to the Oliphant keep with her brother the laird, in order to sign all the betrothal contracts, and Bam! Done! They can get on with the babies!Except…It’s not that Fiona is getting cold feet, exactly. She’s fairly certain she loves Finn. Mostly. Well, verra likely, at least. But she’s never been the most self-confident of women, especially compared to her sister. Her identical twin sister, whom Finn mistakes for her upon arrival, which is super-awkward all around.The idea of marrying Finn makes her warm and giddy—hopefully that’s just lust, not the ague—but how can she be certain he wants her? It’s hard enough to be certain of anything on Oliphant land, what with mad Aunt Agatha spreading rumors, five potential brothers-in-law offering terrible advice, and a mysterious ghostly drummer keeping them awake at all hours.And mayhap Finn should’ve mentioned his identical twin brother, too? That would have saved everyone a lot of headache…and heartbreak. Finn and Fiona have plenty to learn about themselves and one another before they can be certain this marriage is a good idea. But unfortunately, they’re running out of time. Dun-dun-duuuuuuuun!Warning: this comedy of errors is not for the uptight. There’s plenty of naughty scenes, more than a few anachronistic jokes, and an embarrassing number of mistaken-identity gags. Only pick up this book if you have a sense of humor, please.
