Customer Reviews

A very special haunted house story

This is a terrific paranormal romance, with plenty of passion. I recommend it to all readers of erotic romance fiction, whether or not ghost stories are your usual fare. The author brings the setting alive, drawing readers into the story. I've read all of Dee S. Knight's books, and this is one of her best.

Ms. Knight is astonishing and kept me up all night to finish this delightful must- read! I fell in love with the characters and the tale is happy all throughout, another PLUS! A note to Ms. Knight: please, please, give us more!

Passionate Destiny by Dee S. Knight

Passionate Destiny is a timeless romance story you don't want to miss, even if you're not normally a paranormal romance fan. Dr. Margaret-Amis Hollings loses her job and decides to move to the historic mansion she recently inherited in Virginia. She's divorced and disillusioned that she'll never find real love. Soon after moving into the mansion, River Peace, she starts waking up with the sensation of having been passionately loved the way she'd always dreamed of. Except, she starts to wonder if she's just dreaming, it seems so real and sensual. Margaret hires Aaron Belton to make needed repair to the mansion, who, unknown to Margaret, knows the place well and has his own plans to someday have River Peace, which he believes should have been rightfully owned by his ancestors. An attraction and relationship starts to develop between Margaret and Aaron, reluctantly at first. Margaret finds herself confused about her feelings for the present-day Aaron, and her ghost lover, whose name also happens to be Aaron. The story develops with some twists and a mystery sub-plot, but the romance itself is what you'll remember after you've read it. I liked the little twist in the epilog, and hope it leads to a sequel! Ms. Knight's writing immediately draws you into the tale, with a hero and heroine you can't help liking. The story is believable, despite the ghostly element. A keeper for me, and I hope to see more like this from her! Pam P.
