A Passion Denied


I liked this book for different reasons than you may think...

Book Rating: Up All Night’er

You will never read a Lessman book and be disappointed. Never. Her stories are well crafted and the romance to die for.

For some reason, this story’s main characters just didn’t do it for me. But, because I was invested in them—after getting to know them through the other books—I kept reading. And so, even though the main thread of the story wasn’t as enticing as the others, I kept on reading because, like I said, these people are family now! I gotta see what happens next! I wanted to find out what would happen with Charity and Faith, etc. (I love Charity to death now, by the way...) It was the sub-plots of the story that actually drew me in the most. I really couldn't get enough!

Lizze has been head over heels for John Brady for many moons. But, she fears he will never see her an anything more than his little buddy. So she tries to move on…but it’s almost impossible for her to forget her one true love. As for Brady, he knows that his feelings for her are growing, but for both of their sakes (he’s hiding something major), he keeps tries to keep things platonic. Good luck with that, Brady. *snicker *

Talk about drama. There is TONS of delicious drama in this novel. You will be on pins and needles until the last few pages!!

I read this so dang fast. In fact, my mother-in-law swiped it from me when I was only a few chapters in and I had to wait until she was done to finish it! But, that was OK because she was done in a few days, she loved it that much! Yep, just goes to show you won’t be able to put it down. Guaranteed.

Happy Reading!
Buy it!

  1. Out of all her books this one was probably my least favorite. It was still good but I was attached to the other characters more than Brady & Beth. You'll LOVE the next book. Luke McGee is right up there with Mitch in my opinion! :)

  2. LOL, Amber and Candy ... you two must be like me ... in love with bad boys instead of the Billy Graham type like Brady!!

    And, Amber, Candy's right -- Luke and Mitch are neck-in-neck in my hubba-hubba factor and A Hope Undaunted is my FAVE of all my books!! Hope you enjoy it too. :)

    Thanks again, Amber, for a GREAT review!!

    Hugs,
    Julie
