In this episode Tiffanie and Melissa discuss A Passion Redeemed. This is the second book in Julie Lessman’s Daughters of Boston series. Fall further in love with O’Connor family with this passion packed romance!

We left off with Mitch heading back home to Dublin with a broken heart after giving Faith up to Collin. And who should be waiting for him, scheming ways to make him hers? Charity.

“Don’t underestimate me, grandmother, I won’t lose him. Whatever it takes—” She pivoted slowly, arms stiff and fingers taut as she gripped the wooden box. Her left brow angled dangerously high. “And I do mean ‘whatever’—I will become Mrs. Mitch Dennehy, mark my words.”

(Julie Lessman, A Passion Redeemed, page 135)

The battle for love is fierce as Charity puts herself in dangerous situations to capture Mitch’s eye. Yet she is not the only one battling. Mitch has a desire for Charity that rages and begs to be satisfied. However, her lack of faith causes him to turn to God for the strength to deny himself the one woman he loves with heart and soul.

Drama and shocking events from the past will keep you turning the page as you discover why Charity is the way she is. I can guarantee you will be as devastated as Patrick and Marcy when Charity’s buried memories surface.

Patrick turned and slumped into Marcy’s arms with a violent sob.

Mitch stared for several seconds, a wave of compassion dousing his anger. He finally spoke. “Mr. O’Connor, Charity is desperate for your love. She needs to heal. And only your love and God’s can accomplish that.”

I love how Julie keeps every member of the O’Connor family in each of her books. You end up feeling like one of the family. You will enjoy Collin and Faith, they are still going strong as they eagerly await their wedding day.

“I’m a twenty-five-year-old-red-blooded American male. I love you, Faith, and I want all of you. Now!”

She shivered in his arms, his words and touch sending dangerous goose bumps over her body. “I know, me too, Collin. I thank God every day I’m going to be your wife.” She pulled away to look up at him, her eyes gentle. “But it’s because of what God did for us, bringing us together, that we wait…and wait patiently.” She pushed a strand of chestnut hair away from his forehead. A rush of love filled her as she searched the depths of his clear, gray eyes. “Once we’re man and wife, I’ll be all yours.”

The wicked grin resurfaced. “It could be days before we come up for air…”
