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.  As Melissa mingles with the other guests and discovers the resort's fantasy rooms, she's tempted to explore her naughty side and live out her most sinful fantasies--but she isn't prepared for the storm of desire that awaits.  She soon finds herself torn between two men, one of her oldest friends and a handsome stranger who belongs to another.  Both men bring her the most exquisite pleasure, but which man will win her heart?
 
Her work has been described as "scorching," "intoxicating" and "brilliant," and this is Opal Carew's hottest novel yet.  Visit The Sweet Surrender and sample its decadent pleasures for yourself...if you can take the heat.
