Paige wants two things: to land a full time librarian job and find the man of her dreams. On the cusp of thirty, she finds herself suddenly single and working part-time in a Michigan library. A handsome patron with a delicious accent appears at the reference desk, inadvertently sparking an idea that might help her land the promotion she so desperately needs. But that's not the only thing he sparks.
James is in town from Glasgow, Scotland, on a summer artist residency. Luckily, the trip got him away from the pressure he feels to take over his uncle's river tour business. He only wanted to clear his head and make his art in peace, but he wasn't counting on finding an attractive librarian to fill his days.
With only eight weeks before James goes home to Scotland, Paige knows she should protect her heart. After all, she already wasted years with her commitment phobe ex. But the more she gets to know James, the less she can stick to her plan to just be friends. Is she just wasting her time again, or can they bridge the ocean between them to find a happily ever after of their own?
"Fresh and charming - a heart-warming must read romance." - Sandy Barker, author of A Sunrise Over Bali.
"Scotsman in the Stacks is a delightfully sweet, cosy romance for book lovers." - Kiley Dunbar, author of The Borrow a Bookshop Holiday

Scotsman in the Stacks is a story of Paige, a sweet, quiet librarian who just recently broke up with her boyfriend. She meets James, who’s recently visiting from Scotland, one day in the library. The two hit it off instantly and become friends.

Paige, who knows that James isn’t staying long, wants to keep things in the friendship arena–but, of course, that’s difficult to do when the sparks are flying and you meet someone who is, seemingly, perfect for you.

This was a quick, simple story that was cute and sweet. I really loved the romance between Paige and James. They were both pretty uncomplicated characters whose only issue was the fact that James wasn’t intending on staying in America.

I quite enjoyed this story and am really hoping for more from Alana Oxford.
