2006-11-04 Continuing the story

Having read the first trilogy in the Calhoun sage, I was looking forward to completing the story. Suzanna's Surrender certainly follows along nicely from the previous stories. Suzanna is a hard working single mother raising 2 lively children. She has been burned by love before having been married to her children's father. But he was more interested in his wife's name than in loving her. Suzanna meets her man while following leads on the missing emeralds - and this book does finish off that part of the story nicely.

I felt that this story was intented to finish off the family saga completly and that Megan's Mate was, perhaps, a bit of an afterthought. Having said that, Megan's Mate isn't too disappointing but the storyline had to change fairly significantly as there was no longer the side story of the emeralds. Aunt Coco finds some romance in this story too so by the end it really is a case of everyone living happily ever after.
