Sobre IBD

When ambitious corporate consultant Isla Maclean burns out in the city, she never imagines her future involves sheep, storms, and silence. But after a life-changing trip to North Uist, she falls - hard - not just for the crofting life, but for Lachlan, a Gaelic-speaking crofter with more sheep than words.Now living on the wind-blasted Outer Hebridean island, Isla is learning to lamb ewes, chase rogue rams, and speak Gaelic - all while building a business from scratch and keeping her inner demons at bay.But the winters are long. The isolation grows heavier. And as storms roll in across the moor, so does cabin fever. Can Isla find balance between her old self and her new life - and learn to belong where she once felt like an outsider?Heartwarming, hilarious, and deeply human, From Suits to Sheep is a story of transformation, resilience, love - and the wild magic of a windswept island.An adventure for an English-speaker curious about Scotland’s magical Gaelic language. You will get a sprinkling of Gaelic with translation in this story- no previous knowledge needed!
