Who knew planning a wedding could be so hard?
He said yes and that had been all that mattered.
So why did he give excuse after excuse to not set a date to say our “I dos”?
Why wasn’t he my husband yet?
I didn’t know, but by the end of the night, I was going to find out.
No matter what tactics I had to use. Even if they were dirty.
Especially if they were dirty.
This is book # 3.5, in the Voyeur series. This book should not be read as a standalone novella. It is a story follow up for book # 2, and should be read in order in order not to spoil.
Jackson and Jake’s story continues with wedding jokes, venues, and potential mothers-in-law. So much going on that the guys seem not to be connecting like they were. Can the past stay there?
Jake has no idea what has Jackson so upset and tired lately. What happened to wanting to be married? What happened to forever? He is going to find out no matter what.
This short and sexy novella was a perfect glimpse into the lives of the guys we were missing. What a great series. So much to these characters and we are so glad to have more time with them. I loved this great read.

You need to make sure you read Lovers before starting this novella. After everything that’s happened, Jake is wondered about why Jackson is dragging his feet. Plans are just simply that: plans. He is eager to be married but Jackson is holding back. He isn’t sure what could be happening and has worries that maybe their time has come to an end. It’s a hot little story about misunderstandings and how important it is to communicate with the one you love. Get onto this to enjoy more of Jackson and Jake.
What a wonderful, sexy, hot short story to bring Jackson and Jake to their happily ever after. I love series such as this where you get a number of characters that you follow and that are intertwined in the books of the series. Great book Fiona Cole.
Short, sweet and sexy. I love Jackson and Jake! Their love is the sweetest and this novela was everything I needed to get my fill of them.
Maybe Surrender shouldn’t have been the first book I’ve read from Fiona Cole since it is the continuation of a story that started in an earlier book, but I was here for it! Was I a little lost about some of the things that were mentioned, you bet. Did I let it deter me from reading? Not at all. In fact, I devoured it.
Jackson and Jake’s story was intense and passionate. I could feel the emotion and want pouring off of them. I loved how deeply and completely they loved each other. How openly they shared that love. They were both ready for their future together, if only they could get out of their own way…
Loaded with feels and just the right touch of drama, Surrender was a full fledged treat with an extra dose of sexy. And now I can’t wait to go back and see how it all started for Jake and Jackson!
Surrender was a fantastic addition to Jake and Jackson’s story. These two are definite favorites from the Voyeur world and I loved catching up with them. Their story was everything I was looking forward to for them. Steamy, a bit angsty and definitely sweet these two pulled me quickly back into their world and I was a more than willing captive.
4.5 stars
Jake and Jackson’s relationship started on shaky ground, but they were finally headed into marital bliss. However, their happy ending might face a roadblock unless they realized what they valued the most.
For such a short read, this book was complete and satisfying. These two have always been my favorite couple from the author so it was nice to get back to them and they were still as sexy as before.
Note: Surrender was originally published in Love is Love is Love is Unconditional anthology. Their journey started in Lovers.
I LOVE Jake and Jackson. Fiona has some of the best characters and these two are my favorites!
A novella just about them-absolutely!!!
A wedding date needs to be set. But something seems to be holding them back.
Will love always prevail? Will Jake and Jackson finally have the wedding of their dreams?
I guarantee you will love reading to find out!

No matter how long or short her books are, Fiona Cole never disappoints! In Surrender, we are taken back to Jake and Jackson’s relationship (originally from Lovers) and see their troubles they face in preparing for their wedding.
Fiona brings the heat and the romance unlike any other author! I highly suggest you read this novella as a companion to her Voyeur series. It was great to get their HEA, and get another sneak peek into Andrew’s life!!!!!

Get ready for some Hot as Sin pages that Fiona Cole delivers again and again! This short read is jam packed with passion, angst and true love! Grab your copy today!!
Whew….Jackson and Jake sure do know how to set my iPad on fire!! Surrender is an excellent, sexy and entertaining novella. Jackson has been hesitate to walk down the aisle (for a specific reason and I don’t want to spoil it) however, Jake is determined to do everything he can to change his fiancee’s mind. And I was more than glad that Jake got down and dirty with Jackson to resolve the issue. I was so happy revisit one of my favorite couples as they were absolutely everything and I want more of them!!
Surrender is a short novella giving us Jackson and Jake’s HEA. We would have previously met these two in Fiona Cole’s Lovers. I loved this story. It was packed with angst, emotion and steam and although short, was a satisfying read. Jake and Jackson would make you swoon as you experience the love they have for each other and the intense chemistry between them. This was a story that shows the importance of communication in relationship and as much as I wished it was longer, I absolutely loved it and would recommend it to all lovers off MM romance.
Jake and Jackson (from Lovers ), are finally happy together and are engaged. Now if only Jackson would agree to set the date!
Surrender is a quick little novella dealing with Jake and Jackson working out their problems. They fight for dominance, they give each other pleasure, and they love each other. They don’t communicate verbally very well until Jake finds out Jackson has been lying to him, then his way of getting Jackson to open up and set the date is down and dirty. This feels more like an extended epilogue rather than a complete story, but it is a fun way to cap off their journey.
A sweet and sexy addition to the Voyeur world. I love Jake and Jackson, it was great to be with them again now that their relationship was solid. Their attraction for one another has only increased and the love they share is palpable. If you haven’t read any of this series, you really should. Fiona not only brings the heat to her characters, she’s honest with their vulnerability. Once again, job well done!
Have you read Lovers by Fiona Cole (if you haven’t, you must)? If you have you are in for a treat with Surrender. It’s a sweet and steamy little story about Jake and Jackson. All Jake wants to do is set a date but Jackson seems to be stalling. She wrote this so perfectly, as a reader I totally got Jackson. Gah! I just love these two and loved getting another glimpse of their HEA!!
What a perfect way to write Jake and Jacksons happily ever after. This cements my love for M/M romance and Fiona Cole can write some pretty steamy ones.
It was a nice, quick, angsty read and you should read their story in Lovers to get the full picture. Bravo on another great read.
I love Jake and Jackson. This was a short book, but it was packed with angst and it was steamy. Jackson finally surrendering to Jake was so heartfelt. I loved it.
Holy hotness. Holy holy hotness.
Jackson and Jake are baaaaaack!
If you’re looking for a m/m hot, quick, dirty, sweet read…
This. Is. It.
Here comes the groom…s…..
Start with Lovers then go Surrender and wrap up with Another…
Love love love.
Fiona Cole
Seriously HOT! How can these 2 be so sweet and so hot at the same time?? I loved getting to visit Jackson & Jake and the Voyeur crew again. Wonderful novella and great quick read.
More Jake and Jackson is definitely a treat, especially when they can indulge in their love and affection so openly. Jake has come such a long way to be with Jackson and has no problems going above and beyond regarding the nuptial planning. I enjoyed seeing Jake so solid and confident in his happiness that he could be the one to reassure Jackson this time.
