If you like romance in epic proportions-and I'm not just referring to the heroines incredible figure- you will like A Passion Redeemed.
However, I didn't bond with the bodacious protagonist, Charity O'Connor-mainly because I'm not a Scarlett O'Hara fan. To be really fair to her I should read book one in this series, but from what I understand, Charity was really baaad in book one-so it's unlikely that I would root for her more that I did in A Passion Redeemed...
That said, I don't think that you have to love the main character in order to enjoy this book or glean some insight into the power of seduction and jealousy. Julie Lessman weaves an interesting tale about life, love, lust(heavy on the lust),forgiveness, dire consequences, and ultimately some human redemption.
Spiritually, there is no question that this book addresses some of the problems resulting from misused passion and it's affects on friends and loved ones.
I am truly glad that this series is available for the true romance aficionado.
God bless Julie Lessman and may the ink keep flowing from her quill pen!!
