RUBY SPENCER'S WHISKY YEAR

Nikki Massoud's lively voice welcomes listeners to a charming romance in the Highlands. Ruby Spencer is desperate to make a change, so she quits her publishing job in New York, lands an agent for a cookbook, and escapes to a remote village in Scotland for a year. Massoud shifts smoothly between Ruby's bright, determined voice and the charming Scottish accents of all those who welcome her to her new life. Grace, who has a warm voice and soft lilt, teaches Ruby how to cook traditional meals in her struggling pub, while the mysterious and handsome Brochan keeps coming around to fix up Ruby's cottage. Listeners will hear of rambles in the Highlands, scrumptious food, plenty of romance--and tension as Ruby's beloved new community faces big changes.
