“A fun, heart-rending love story with an exciting plot, only made richer by the emotional arcs and sub-plots involving secondary characters. A great romance with wildly erotic sensuality.”
Five days before her wedding to a man she admires but doesn’t love, Katrina Spencer escapes to a private island.
There, she can let the sun warm her body as she contemplates a future without the passion she craves. Then she lazily opens her eyes, only to see Brock Denton… muscular, half-naked, the one who got away – the one who makes her body tingle with arousal.
How Brock arrived is a mystery, but it’s clear he’s in danger. Kat faces danger, too, in the arms of a man who is determined to free her from her every inhibition with his hands, his mouth, and more!
Kat has five steamy days and five sultry nights to make up her mind – return home to a man she doesn’t love, or satisfy her wildest passions with Brock and let her herself be… swept away.

Trivia & Extras
Swept Away launched the imprint Avon Red, a new line of trade-size erotica novels. Novels that "take readers farther than they've gone before, exploring fantasies that have no limits."
Just for fun, check out Kat Spencer's Desert Island Survival Kit. She limited it to a list of only ten items (never let it be said that she can't be frugal).
I wish I remembered where I originally got the idea for this book 😉 The fact is, it’s been in my head a long time – hence not knowing exactly where it came from. Back in early 2000, when I first sold to Harlequin Temptation, I pitched a less-complex version of this book, but they chose not to acquire it. Now, I’m actually glad, since it gave me the opportunity to expand the story and develop the characters in ways a category book would not have allowed me to due to space considerations.
I’ve always adored the beach – I’m a total beach girl at heart – and a lot of my story ideas just naturally lead there, so I’m sure that has something to do with Swept Away’s conception. One thing I can tell you, though, is how Brock, my hero, got his name. Back when I first thought of this idea, fellow writer Lori Foster had just gotten a chihuahua named Brock. As soon as I heard it, I knew it was the right name for my tough, sexy FBI guy. And no offense to Lori’s dog, but my Brock is a lot tougher than hers 😉
This book has turned out to be my favorite, at least so far. I hope readers will feel the same!
