Blurb
I didn’t expect to fall for a Scottish footballer so annoyingly sunny you need shades to be around him. I didn’t expect to say yes to his heart-felt, if loopy, proposal while he lay injured on the pitch in front of forty thousand fans. What I definitely didn’t expect? For our engagement to explode into a paparazzi circus, our mothers to turn into wedding bulldozers, and for our wedding protector's perfectly reasonable elopement plan to spiral into a road trip escape.
Shopping for a Highlander’s Elopement is a romantic comedy that blends the worlds of four bestselling series by New York Times bestselling author Julia Kent:
- Shopping for a Billionaire
- Shopping for a Highlander
- Whatever It Takes
- Love You, Maine
If you love sports romance, surprise proposals, grand gestures, chaotic weddings, Scottish footballers, golden retriever/black cat energy, and characters who love too hard, mess up spectacularly, and always find their way back to each other with plenty of laughter (and lovingly-used scrunchies) along the way, then this is your book.
Other Books in the Series:
Shopping for a Booty Call (Prequel)
Shopping for a Turkey (Book 1)
Shopping for a Highlander (Book 2)
Shopping for a Highlander’s Elopement (Book 3)

Excerpt
Shannon turns back to me, sliding into big-sister-who-knows-you’re-spiraling mode. A breeze catches her long, brown hair and lifts it across her eyes, warm concern radiating from them. Shannon got Mom's hair and Dad's eyes, while I'm the opposite, with Dad's auburn hair and Mom's bright blue eyes. Our faces are similar in shape, even if the genetic roll of the dice gave us different features. “You okay?”
I open my mouth.
Nothing comes out.
“Oh, boy.” She takes my hand and scoots into the row where Declan was sitting. “You’ve reached the blank-stare stage. That’s never good.”
We settle into two seats, my breath still shaky. Shannon nudges me with her shoulder.
“You know,” she says, “I’m not even sure where I’m supposed to sit. Jacoby side or McCormick?”
“You were born a Jacoby.”
“Sure, but I married into this madness. And now I’ve got a toe in each volcano.”
“Welcome to the lava pool.”
She laughs. “This is all still better than my proposal, though.”
Every little sister loves being reminded of her big sister's screw ups. I laugh. “You swallowed your engagement ring.”
She grins. “And launched us into a seventy-two-hour medical drama called #poopwatch. Honestly, this whole spectacle? Glitter cannon, megaphone, and Hamish's mom’s interpretive bagpipe routine? It's still less traumatic than giving birth to a diamond solitaire.”
“I had to text you for stool updates.”
“I color-coded the spreadsheet. It was efficient. But I don't recommend unexpected emergency room trips on proposal day.”
I crack a laugh, the pressure in my chest finally giving way. "Thanks for the warning. I have no plans to see the inside of an ER today, thank you very much."
Shannon takes my hand. Her expression shifts to that rare sister-serious look I only ever see in moments that count. I'm so lucky that she and Carol are good, solid, kind, smart adults. I need them at times like this.
Need them more than ever.
We can wisecrack and one-up. We can razz each other and needle. But when one of us is in the fear zone, we're there for her.
Always.
“This is love, Amy. Ridiculous, oversized, loud-ass love. It’s not perfect. It’s not quiet. It’s never going to be. But it’s real. Hamish is choosing you, all of you. And yeah, he’s doing it in a full stadium with a glitter fallout zone, but he’s doing it. He’s all in.”
I breathe.
“He’s just… so much.”
“I know. But he’s your much.”
