"Desire & Prejudice" is the type of novel that makes you root for the power of love, makes you eager to keep on reading, makes you care about the characters and, most of all, makes you sad when it's over. As a debut novel for Jean-Louis McMillan, this is an engaging, well-written and resonating story about love, pain, prejudice, sacrifice, human emotion and the dramas that are so inherent in the path of love.The book centers around Adam and Jasmine, two people who have managed to find love together, but who are forever separated by societal rules and obligations. Their love flourishes despite the restrictions placed on them by society and family, but no matter how much they love each other the rest of the world seeps into their love and begins to force both of them to decide how far and how much they are willing to give up to be together. From the dangerous threats their love creates to the heated sensuality of their romance, "Desire & Prejudice" weaves a well-written story of love and pain, desire and prejudice in a sweeping love story that you can't resist.Once I started the novel I really couldn't put it down until the very end; I was sucked into Adam and Jasmine's intense love story and the price they have to pay to be together. Overall, it was well worth the read and is a must read for anyone who wants a love story that is not only fraught with heat and sensuality, but an engaging and exciting plot as well.
