Where shall we start. I think the beginning shall do. When you first open Shaggy Maggie you are met with a 3 page glossary of Scottish Lingo. While some of it was helpful it was also an oh feck what did I get myself into moment. Yeah I stayed for a few chapters. Then magically it started to flow for me.Magda was a shaggy haired girl in high school. On the bus she was teased about it mercilessly by Harvey. Years later Magda finds herself dating and soon engaged to Harvey's twin brother (not identical). This comes as a surprise to everyone they had all heard of shaggy maggie. Also Beckman's family lives in Scotland and after years of dating he is finally taking her home to meet his family. ta.Upon her arrival her luggage is stolen. So that blows. Seriously it does but you got to love how something so small turns into sooo much more.For his part Harvey had been in love with Maggie since he first saw her on that school bus. Hes boarderline obsessed with her. He dates woman who look similar to her named his band Shaggy Maggie and named his guitar after her as well.At first Maggie wants nothing to do with Harvey but after her engagement feelings change a lot changes really. Maggie calls upon her best friend CaitaLynn who is a wedding planner to help her plan her world wind wedding. CaitaLynns piece starts off really fecking weird. As is it makes little sense to me. However I was told to keep my shirt on this is only the first book in the series. So FOR NOW TYFFANI SHIRT IS ON. For now. Mwhahaha.So while all this stuff is happening this sick Feck and believe hes SICK, Irvin is stalking Magda. He is OVER THE TOP OBSESSED with her. And he will use this trip to reveal himself and whisk her away!I was completely enthralled with Shaggy Maggie. I have the bags to prove it! I found it extremely difficult to put my book down. Every time I tried to go to sleep id turn off the kindle toss and turn then finally give in to temptation and read some more. And this isn't the first time Tyffani has done this to me and I would put a years salary it wont be the last either.
