description: THE BATTLE OF THE SEXES.
  
  THE ISLAND. For generations the men and women of Volas had been separated - the warlike males living on the mainland, the peace-loving females in an isolated haven perpetually surrounded by mist. Their only dealings were for the purposes of procreation, and they were strictly scientific rather than sensual.
  
  THE WARRIOR. Fiercely possessive, Jorlan found this state of affairs an affront to his male pride. He had sworn he would restore the women of Volas to their men, particularly the fiery beauty Amala, who had chosen him as her long-dstance mate.
  
  THE WOMAN. Direct descendant of the first Amala, who had led her sisters into isolation one hundred years before, she bore a striking resemblance to her namesake. She wanted no man to dominate her, not even the charismatic Jorlan, who filled her with a stranger longing to taste the forbidden pleasures of love.
