Suzanna’s SurrenderRating 1.5 __Some sexual content, none graphicStand alone read. 4th book in The Calhouns seriesDISAPPOINTING. Well written, interesting paranormal storyline, suspenseful mystery, strong characters, good family theme, and a vicious villain. HOWEVER, the hero is a male chauvinistic bully; he grabs the heroine, carries her to the bedroom while she “struggles and swears,” tells her he’s “tired of waiting,” restrains her, and won’t take NO for an answer. That, by definition is not romance, it’s rape, which is offensive and leaves an unpleasant taste in your mouth.THE STORY follows a local landscaper, divorcee, and mother of two, Suzanna Calhoun Dumout, and burned-out, ex-cop, Holt Bradford. As “The Calhoun” series continues the family is still searching for their great-grandmother’s legendary emeralds, hidden by Suzanna’s grandmother, Bianca, before her unexplained suicide.As the story unfolds, Suzanna approaches Holt to ask if he remembers anything his grandfather said about Bianca before her death. Holt just wants to be left alone, however as Suzanna presses him, forgotten memories resurface, his cop-instincts kick into investigation mode, and he becomes as determined as the Calhouns to find the emeralds. As Holt and Suzanna continue the search, he realizes the same murderous thief in a new disguise, is still after the emeralds which puts Suzanna at risk. He is determined to protect her but despite Suzanna’s smarts and independent spirit, she falls into the psycho’s clutches and Holt must come to her rescue.OVERALL, Skip It! Well written, but Holt is a bully until nearly the end, so it is hard to feel the romance.
