It all started with an innocent request…
Melissa’s friend Shane asked her to accompany him on a business trip to an exclusive resort. But The Sweet Surrender is no ordinary vacation spot. It’s for men and women who swing. Reluctantly, Melissa mingles with the other guests—and is fascinated when she discovers the resort’s fantasy rooms. She is tempted to explore her naughty side—but when she lives out her most sinful fantasies, she isn’t prepared for the storm of desire that awaits. Soon she finds herself torn between two men, one of her oldest friends and a handsome stranger who belongs to another woman. Both men bring her the most exquisite pleasure, but which man will win her heart?

Opal Carew’s work has been described as “scorching,” “intoxicating” and “brilliant,” and this is her hottest novel yet. Visit The Sweet Surrender and sample its decadent pleasures for yourself…if you can take the heat.
