Product Description
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.

Melissa Woods and Shane Mason were best friends, and she considered herself a little in love with him, but when he asked her to go to a resort called Sweet Surrender that caters to swingers, she was dumbfounded. Melissa had planned on turning him down until she found out her sister Elaine was planning to go there with her husband. Now it was her mission to go there and do reconnaissance for Elaine hoping to dissuade her from going. Melissa and Shane were planning to pose as husband and wife so that he could make a decision whether or not to buy the place.
Ty Adams and Suzanne Fox were also close friends posing at the resort as a married couple. She owns the resort, and Ty as a private investigator, suggested the deception so they could check out the potential buyer. The only problem was they didn't know who it was, so they planned to get to know the new visitors hoping to identify the buyer. When Ty saw Melissa, he immediately wanted her, and thought she was either the buyer or a representative for the buyer. She wasn't his normal type, but something in her pulled at him, and he was going to have fun finding out her secrets as he gets close to her body.
Melissa didn't think she would enjoy the resort, but with Ty's help, she found a closet exhibitionist within herself that loved getting out. She also found herself participating and enjoying things she never dreamed possible before meeting Ty. When everyone discovers that looks can be deceiving, and many misunderstandings take place, it takes digging deep to resolve the feelings involved.
I enjoyed the sensual sexy play of this book, but found it lacking in the end. I would have liked some resolution, and genuine deep emotions developed between Ty and Melissa, but the book ended pretty abruptly leaving me with a feeling they wouldn't make it as a couple.

Melissa Woods' friend, Shane Mason, is considering buying a swinger's
resort in The British West Indies called The Sweet Surrender. He wants
to check it out, so he asks Melissa to go with him and pose as his
wife. She agrees, after hearing that her sister and her husband are
planning to go to the same resort in the future. Melissa wants to
gather information on the resort and persuade her sister not to go.
Private investigator Ty Adams' friend Suzanne owns The Sweet
Surrender. The club is losing money, and she knows she has to sell,
although she hates it. She asks Ty to go with her to the resort
because she thinks the prospective buyer is sending in a spy to see
how things work, and she wants Ty to find out who the spy is.
Ty immediately suspects Melissa, because she seems to be uncomfortable
at the orientation. He's very attracted to her, so spending time with
her won't be a problem. At first, Melissa is appalled by the club, and
its activities but as she begins to sample the offerings, she finds
that rather enjoys the swinger's lifestyle, and that she's very, very
attracted to Ty.
The tag on Swing says to "Leave your inhibitions at the door." In its
place you'd better bring a bucket full of ice. On second thought, make
that several buckets. Swing is hot, there's no doubt about it. Ms.
Carew has crafted a novel that captures the spirit of a swinger's club
very well. The sex is hot, and the games the couples play are fun and
varied.
I enjoyed the book, but would have liked to see a little more alone
time between Melissa and Shane, to cement their relationship. I'd
hoped to get that at the end and was disappointed that I did not.
Despite that, Swing is a sexy and entertaining romp. Readers who enjoy
stories about uninhibited sex with various and multiple partners will
love Swing.

Oh so vivid you can imagine yourself at the resort January 31, 2008

What would you do for a friend? Would you go to a sex resort and do anything that was asked from you. An easy question to say yes or no to, but for Melissa it is one that will determine her future with Shane. He is the guy she has fantasized about for years and also her best friend. The thing is Shane doesn't see her as a sexy woman. He sees her just as a friend. Talk about a low blow to her self-esteem. She never expected him to ask her to accompany him to The Sweet Surrender, a swinger's resort. Melissa is no innocent and has read about these people that swap wives or girlfriends for sex but never imagined Shane was into it. Would this be the place that will finally make Melissa wanton, sexy and desirable to Shane? Or will it be her downfall.
Ty is an ex security guy who will do anything for his friend Suzanne. Upon hearing that a potential buyer is coming he knows that he must protect Suzanne. Wondering if it is Melissa that could be the potential he is not sure whom to protect now. He knows Suzanne is a great seductress but seeing Melissa makes him wonder if maybe it's time to join in the activities at the resort. One thing for sure is that Melissa is no innocent and he is definitely willing to show all the sexual sides of the resort. The thing is can he do it without losing his heart or his friendship with Suzanne.
Man oh man this one was one roller coaster of sex, passion and oh so vivid you can imagine yourself at the resort. It was interesting as a reader to read that this swinging business does exist and not all of it is seedy but somewhat loving. Melissa is a woman who is timid and it takes one good-looking man like Ty to bring that inner sensuality and passion in her out to play. Great book and can't wait for more by Opal Carew. Ms. Carew has wonderful imagination and great talent.
