Review: An Emotional Roller coaster
Rating: 3 out of 5

The range of emotion I felt in this book, I swear I ended up developing whiplash. Angel takes you on quite the emotional roller coaster with Chantal and Dom’s story.Sweet Surrender is the follow-up to Sweet Temptation. The book focuses on Chantal and Dom who have been friends for five years. The connection between them is beyond obvious but neither one want to submit to their feelings. Dom believes that Chantal won’t accept the real him and Chantal is afraid her feelings won’t be reciprocated.Dom is an extremely HOT ALPHA who has more secrets than the Kennedy’s. He’s a no relationship kind of guy. Chantal is a strong female. She is an independent woman who is a natural go getter. She doesn’t let anything stand in her way and doesn’t take any crap from anyone unless it’s from her parents.When it comes to sex, Angel knows how to get a girl hotter than a whore in church and wetter than a slip n’ slide. The intimacy between these characters is passionate, possessive and so electric you were left panting in the end.The connection between Chantal and Dom had the lust, passion and their bond that they developed as well as the storyline itself, was not a problem for me. What was an issue was the too frequent flip-flop, hot and cold demeanor between them. Also every time something good would happen in the story, it was almost immediately followed by some type of turmoil. Don’t get me wrong, I love twists and turns and ups and downs but for me there was too much, too often. I like to be able to savor what I’m feeling when reading and because one thing was happening one right after another, that I wasn’t able to digest and got too full, too fast.Overall I thought Sweet Surrender was ok. I do recommend just based on the connection, storyline and intimacy. I’m anxious to see what Angel comes up with for book 3. I’m predicting Joey and Kristen’s story to be the best.
