review 1: Hold onto your Tartan, this Highlander romance is passionate, tender and HOT!The Sweet Surrender of Janet Buchanan by Paula Quinn is a romance filled with a hunk of a Scottish Highlander, a feisty & strong willed woman and a storyline that is perfect for this sweet novella. This is the story of Janet Buchanan and Darach Grant, who have this wonderful distaste for each other, but also an unbelievable attraction to each other. She has a mind of her own and is no man's possession; He is arrogant, confident and adept with the ladies... and never shares the same bed twice. The story begins with Janet being ceremoniously offered up in marriage to save an attack on the castle and lands her brother is steward of. This is suppose to be just a delay tactic, while they wait for the t... morerue lord of the castle, Malcolm MacGregor, to come and protect his keep. While Malcolm is otherwise engaged, he sends none other than Darach Grant, the man who stole Janet's heart and left many months ago. But that's all he sends! Janet doesn't know which is worse, being married off to save the castle or having Darach back in her life, and him being the sole answer to her problem makes it even worse! The banter between them is funny and sweet, and stinging at times. AND it is wonderful! The romance starts of teasing us and then it is hot, HOT, HOT! As soon as I started reading this story, I could not stop. The writing is wonderful! Paula Quinn sets the stage with an authentic Scottish landscape, wonderful characters that are fully fleshed out, and a believable & fun romance.My only complaint with The Sweet Surrender of Janet Buchanan is that is was too short! I thought Janet and Darach deserved more to their story, and the ending seemed a bit abrupt. But this is a novella and just a little present to the readers of her The MacGregors: Highland Heirs series. This book is 1.5 in the series, so I can only hope Janet and Darach make another appearance!
review 2: Fireworks Fly & Passion Flares!Fireworks fly and passion flares as Janet and Darach try to resist their attraction to each other. I loved this novella, as usual Paula's writing is addicting and her characters are swoon-fully delicious. If you like strong females then you will love Janet. Janet's demeanor is one every woman should have - strong willed, stubborn, independent, caring, passionate, and fierce when called for. Yes Janet is a woman I can totally identity with - no man controls her life and she makes her own decisions. Darach is a bit of a rogue but his tender heart bleeds songs of passion for a woman that is more thrilling and beautiful inside and out than any other woman he's ever met or been with. . Darach doesn't want to tame and rule over Janet, no he wants her beneath him squirming and begging for more. Funny, Janet like Darach pens her words of passion but when it comes to expressing their feelings they find themselves boiling with frustration because they don't know how to approach the truth of their feelings. But with one uncontrollable kiss and one night of claiming, everything they dreamed, penned, or love song sung bares their irresistible love. This Beautiful story written with visionary words makes me want to live in their world forever. I highly recommend this adventurous Highland novella and look forward to the next addition in the series. EXCELLENT READ!*I was provided a copy by author via NetGalley for a fair and honest review* less

I didn't like how it ended. It is like the author didn't know how to end it, so she just ended it.

Love her books but that was really rushed. There was more there to work into a fuller novel.
