The third installment in Hawkins' Oxenburg Princes series (The Princess Wore Plaid, 2016) is a madcap tale of rescue and intrigue in the Scottish Highlands. Prince Nikolai Romanovin of Oxenburg is bored with his London life and socialite women. When word comes to him through Lady Alisa Mackenzie, estate manager of Castle Leod, that his beloved grandmother, the Grand Duchess, has disappeared, he decides to go undercover to find her. Posing as a groom, he steals away to Scotland. His ruse fails to deceive Lady Alisa, but she agrees to keep his secret. At 22, Alisa never had a season of her own after giving up the opportunity to care for her ill mother. Love and marriage, she believes, are just not in her future. Nikolai, Alisa, and their men team up to search for the duchess, and an adventure fraught with danger ensues. When Nikolai is hurt, Alisa nurses him back to health and comes to see and love the man, not his title. But Nikolai refuses to acknowledge his feelings and pushes her aside. Thankfully, the Grand Duchess is rescued and works more of her Gypsy matchmaking. Fans of the series one to recommend to all who love Scottish romances will be delighted.--Lefkowitz, Ilene Copyright 2016 Booklist
