I was given a copy of this book to do a review. That said this is in no way a book that I would normally read, but I try not to turn away a well-done book. So with that in mind I will refrain from judging the book based on its genre. Instead, I will focus on writing style and content.In this case Dawning Passion is very well wrote even if, it's not one that I would normally enjoy. It's clear to me that author Elia Mirca put her all into the writing, both in story concept and its execution. And minus a couple tense mishaps, the book very well edited. I have no issues giving the book at least four and a half to five stars.The thing that annoys me with the book though is that it has a lot of erotica. Which I personally am just not a fan of. So with that in mind I would warn any potential readers that it’s there and there is plenty of it. From simple one on one scenes to full-blown group scenes.If we ignore that aspect of the story and focus on the rest, there is much to enjoy about Mirca's story. For instance, the crime aspect is very well done with plenty of plot twists to keep you interested. I did however, find the ending to be a little jarring with how it just cuts off, Mirca does have a little snippet of what the next book will be about as a way to bridge the gap, but I felt that this books ending wasn't really an ending but a cutoff point.So as to if I would recommend this book, I do feel that it was done well enough to warrant a recommendation. I feel that any fan of chick lit or crime drama would thoroughly enjoy the story. And of course we can’t forget the erotica, while I don’t like it, I know there are tons of people that do. For those I can see the book doing very well. It's just that in my case as a male reader it wasn't my cup of tea. I do still wish to send my best wishes and good luck to Elia Mirca in her writing career.
