This is a fairly typical romance story. Girl from a poor family, trying to make something of herself runs into rich incredibly handsome guy ... I'm sure you can guess the ending.  The antics of the dog added a little twist to the story. You gotta love the innocence of a dog who has no care for the class or status of people. That's probably why we all love them so much (when we aren't cleaning up afterwards). I enjoyed the descriptions of the Scottish highlands and bits of Scottish history.  Though I'm an American, I've been to Scotland it really is a beautiful country and I love the numerous stories which have used Scotland as a setting. I don't believe this book has the quality of writing that we've seen with writers such as Nora Roberts however the book is enjoyable.Having read a lot of romance recently I find I'm getting a little bit perturbed that all of the stories have incredibly handsome and very rich men as their main character.  Isn't is possible to write a good romance about people who are ordinary looking and have "normal" jobs? Do you really have to be young, rich and beautiful to find true love (or have good sex)?  It's a rare book that ventures out of the typical romance character recipe.  But I can't blame this book for that, most of them are like that.
