The Surrender series has kept readers engaged since the first book hit the shelves. In this final installment to the series, you will finish the journey that Rafe and Ari started, as well as read the stories of Shane and Lia, and Rachel and Ian.

Love and desire run rampant throughout this series, but romance is about more than that. It’s about the small battles that lead to the greatest victories.

Is Ari and Rafe’s love powerful enough to withstand challenges beyond their control? Will Lia and Shane learn to compromise instead of careening between extremes of passion and loathing? Can Rachel give up her dream of living an ordinary life and learn to love King Adriane?

Read the conclusions of these three strong women’s stories, and learn what choices they make. Is love enough to conquer when the odds are stacked against them?

Kate has given up on love—at least for herself. She is both blessed and cursed with the ability to sense a romantic connection between two people—a gift that her family passed down for generations. When Kate launches her own matchmaking company, Kinnection, with her two best friends in a cozy New York town, she has to put aside her own romantic disasters to make her business a success.

But when a furious man stalks into her office and accuses her business of being a scam, Kate is given the ultimate challenge to prove herself. Slade puts himself in her hands and asks Kate to find him love. Enraged at his arrogance but stubbornly eager to prove herself, Kate agrees, dedicating herself to the journey of finding him love...only to find herself falling for him along the way.

When Emily Robinson lands a good job with Bonham Industries, she's desperate to keep it. Unfortunately, Emily's new boss, Edward Caudry, is a very strict man and even the tiniest mistakes infuriate him. One day, after yet another typo, Edward gives Emily a choice: she can be fired or submit to a “punishment” that will better help her focus—a bare-bottomed spanking! While part of Emily rebels at the idea—it's certainly not allowed in today's workplace!—another part of her is secretly aroused by it, so she agrees. But Edward keeps pushing her deeper into her submission to his will and she finds herself drawn in to the highly erotic nature of their new relationship. Fans of the cult classic movie “Secretary” will appreciate this homage, although it is not a retelling of that story.

La temo de la «Sekretaj sonetoj»estas eterna kiel la vivo mem: la amo. Klasika, senriproĉa formo el 52 sonetoj, 2 rondeloj kaj balado-epilogo (la virtuozan poezian teknikon de la aŭtoro konas ĉiu leganto!) prezentas tute eksterordinaran enhavon — «la ardan amon trans ĉemizo».

Verdire, se oni traktas Sekretajn Sonetojn sen antaŭjuĝoj — la ciklo estas tute ĉasta kaj altspirita. Ĝi ne liveras pornografiaĵojn, ne reklamas perversojn, sed traktas la veran amon, ĉar «la vera am’ neniam ja perversas» (XXII), «tabuo ne ekzistas por la am’» (XXX).

Ĝenerale, por legi la libron oni bezonas ne nur libere posedi esperanton kaj esti ne surda al poezio, sed ankaŭ — havi krom ĉio cetera bonan senton de humuro. Preskaŭ ĉie en la versoj de Kalocsay ĉeestas milda ironio, kaj tio donas al atentema leganto apartan plezuron.

La «Komplezaj klarigoj» estas duonŝerca glosaro de kelkaj raraj vortoj kaj neologismoj, inter kiuj enkondukitaj de la aŭtoro (ekzemple pugo). Tradicia parto de multaj esperantaj libroj, la glosaro, ĉi tie estas senriproĉe versita per kvinjamboj (kvankam senrime), kaj havas apartan artan valoron. Laŭ la diro de la aŭtoro,

Novela motivo de escándalo en Suecia durante años, el malsano néctar de la planta Sensitiva amorosa impregna todas las páginas de este libro que toma su título de dicha especie vegetal imaginaria, y que con su desbordado lirismo, sus entonces audaces referencias sexuales, su elaborado e innovador lenguaje y su estética decadente provocó confusión e indignación entre sus contemporáneos.

¿Conduce la posesión física irremediablemente al desamor y al hastío? ¿Qué fuerzas inconscientes gobiernan nuestros impulsos eróticos y provocan su muerte? ¿Es que sólo en el silencio y la distancia puede florecer el amor? Los sucesivos episodios de esta atípica novela plantean con una extraordinaria penetración psicológica estas cuestiones que, si bien no escandalizan como hace un siglo, son aún capaces de causar un profundo impacto en el lector de hoy.

Con Sensitiva amorosa, Hansson, al igual que su compatriota y coetáneo Strindberg, rompió con las convenciones sociales y artísticas, creando una única y personal prosa poética que hoy es considerada una de las cumbres de la literatura sueca.

Christopher Beckett is tired of being alone. His wolf is howling for his mate, and Chris knows it is only a matter of time before his needs override everything else in his life.

He casts the spell all the Becketts have used to call their mates to them. What he wants is a woman of an older lineage, of power to equal his own. And she has to accept the one aspect that sets him apart from almost every other wizard: his wolf.

What Chris gets is Alannah Evans, a powerful witch of the Evans Coven. The petite, dark haired woman has no problems with the wolf. What she does have a problem with is the fact that Chris is a wizard. Since wizards and witches don’t get along very well, neither should they, but the sparks flying between them can’t be denied.

Chris isn’t taking no for an answer. When it becomes clear that an old enemy has targeted them both Chris will wind up engaging his enemy in a duel that could cost him his life.

Or worse: Lana.
