Impassioned is a wonderful romance, ingeniously written so that it will be enjoyable for both men and women. At the heart of the story is a young woman who spent some of the best years of her life being overweight. The lack of self-confidence and the weight had prevented Diana from enjoying life but her self-absorbed friend Grazia had convinced her to lose weight. Diana was never sure if Grazia’s insults were intended to encourage her to lose weight or if they were just delivered to make Diana feel bad about herself. Whatever the reason, Diana does go on a diet and she does lose weight.Diana and Grazia go on a Mediterranean cruise but although Diana has lost weight and she looks gorgeous, she still has low self-esteem. So when men begin to admire her on the cruise, she doesn’t quite know how to react. Then she meets Alexey. Alexey is more than handsome and sexy. He has the aura of great wealth and yet he has a gentle persona and sophistication and Diana immediately thinks he is way out of her league. So when he is obviously swept off his feet by Diana, she still can’t believe it. He is more than everything she ever dreamed about. He is beyond the perfect man in every way and he is completely taken by Diana’s simple beauty.That’s all I can write here without spoiling the experience. I can tell you that the romantic and sexual passages are wonderfully written and the experience and the characters become real. As you progress through the story, you will find that you can’t stop reading. You have to know how it will turn out for Diana. Is the intense love affair between Diana and Alexey real? You will never guess how it will turn out. Highly recommended.
