Joanna's Highlander
by Maeve Greyson
This review was originally posted on Addicted To RomanceI received this book for free from Loveswept in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.
Joanna's Highlander is the second book in the latest series by Maeve Greyson. This is Grant's book, who is big and gruff and sexy as sin. I have really enjoyed the set up of the story and the whole series. This story is focused soley on the couple although we do get a few fun times with the family, but I will be honest I kinda wanted a bit more interaction with the family, since book one I fell in love with them. However, I can't complain about a story that focuses solely on the romance.
The story starts off, with Grant, and see him go through a tragic loss, I will warn you the beginning of the story is EXTREMELY emotional. Then we see Grant in the present, seeing both him and his family brought forward to protect a "stone" that his family has protected. There is a woman he has been patiently waiting for....a woman that is independent and feisty and he wants to take his time with her. But as their relationship deepens, the truth about who he is and where he comes from, is a truth that he knows he needs to reveal to her, but he wonders if she will accept him and still love him after he reveals everything and if she will choose him and the love they have for each other...
This is a story I was really excited for, and I am not going to say I was super disappointed but I did feel a bit deflated, it wasn't a story I was expecting and I feel like the angst on this story was a bit more than I normally like to see. The bantering could be fun at times, but other times I found myself wanting to skim through these parts because it got to be a bit too much. Although I will say the old ladies attempt at matchmaking was HILARIOUS...I got such a kick out of them. I will say that the heroine annoyed me especially in the later half of the book, she makes a decision that I was reading it and I was like "really??!" and I could totally understand why Grant was so upset and hurt over it. Grant however, was simply a wonderful hero. He has suffered through a trauma, but I love how carefree and his teasing manner is and seeing more depth to his character in this book.
Overall I really liked the story, and the growth of inimacy between this pair was tangible and the reader will be pulled into a sexy fun romance guaranteed to bring a smile to your face..
