Passionate Destiny Kindle Edition

by Dee S. Knight (Author), Dee S. Knight (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
5.0 out of 5 stars 3 ratings
Dr. Margaret Amis-Hollings, professor of women’s studies at a small New Jersey college, is a woman who confidently knows who she is and what she expects of life. Until she loses her teaching position and her well-ordered life gets turned upside down. Then, in a subtle stroke of whimsy, fate tosses her a gift in an historic home and property in Virginia.

Harboring visions of Gone With the Wind, she determines to use River Peace as a temporary reprieve from her troubles. Images of Tara quickly evaporate when she arrives to discover the reality of her inheritance, however.

River Peace has history, grace and style going for it. After only one night, Margaret discovers that it also has a ghost. She’s visited by a male spirit from the time of the War Between the States, who knows how to make a woman feel special. And very loved.

Aaron Belton meets Margaret when she first arrives in Virginia. He’s renowned for historic renovations on a multitude of properties, but he’s got a special place in his heart for River Peace. He and his family believe the property always should have belonged to them. In fact, Aaron will do almost anything to make that happen. When his passion for the house changes to a passion for the house’s owner, Aaron’s as surprised as anyone. Can he gain both, the woman and the house? To do so, he’ll have to face a spectral being.
And his own destiny.

So after my mom read my first book she said, "Honey, how do you know about all this sex stuff?" I said, "Uh, mom, you know I'm married, right?"

Actually, I never intended to write erotic romance. I never intended to be an author at all--I kinda fell into it. But maybe I have a knack for storytelling. And now I enjoy it. I hope you do, too! Find out more about me on https://nomadauthors.com.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Passion with a Story

    I've been wanting to read a book by Ms. Knight ever since I encountered her post on a blog. I chose Passionate Destiny because I'm a believer in ghosts and the blurb hooked me with a brief description of the characters. I'm not normally a reader of erotica, but I have to say, this book is erotic romance. I think there is a distinction. The romance is sweet, the sex is hot, and the story is intriguing. The main characters are educated and well-read. I love that the hero is mistaken as simply a construction guy by the heroine who is rather snooty with her evaluation. There is humor with the ghost episodes but also passion you will find intriguing if you like ghost stories. After reading Passionate Destiny, I will most definitely be ready other books by Ms. Knight.

    REVIEWED BY LINDA TONIS
    MEMBER OF THE PARANORMAL ROMANCE GUILD REVIEW TEAM
    Dr. Margaret Amis-Hollings is a professor of women’s studies at a college in New Jersey, but she became a victim of budget cuts and found herself unemployed. With the loss of her position she still had bills to pay and the future did not look promising. Divorced from her cheating husband who suddenly wants to get back together and a mother who is looking for her next husband she gets a letter that changes everything.

    A distant relative, Maude Rawling, has left her an antebellum house with furnishings and 153 acres in Palmyra, Virginia, there is a light at the end of the tunnel for her. Of course, her plans of selling the estate hit a snag when she realizes the number of repairs necessary to meet inspection. At the recommendation of the lawyer she calls on Aaron Belton who is supposed to be the best contractor and most reliable. She has no idea that she has met Aaron at the gas station when she assumed he was there to fill her car, Margaret was not in New Jersey any more where you didn’t fill your own car, she has a lot to learn.

    Aaron is anxious to work on the house he has always dreamed of owning, a house that if what his family always believed is true belonged to them. River Peace is his dream but not long after working with Margaret he begins to put her in that same position, a dream he hopes to see fulfilled.

    Haunting the house is the ghost of Aaron Belton who died during the Civil War leaving behind the woman he loved and married, Margaret Thornton, a marriage no one was aware of so with no proof of the marriage the property was sold to another family. Margaret begins to believe in the ghost when he makes love to her each night, not the kind of love a man and woman feel but a sense of pleasure that leaves her hungry for more. The story of Margaret and Aaron from the war days is a sad one but now there is a new Margaret and Aaron, but will they find love.

    Margaret has no faith in forever love thanks to her ex-husband and her mother, but she has no problem having erotic sex with a man who manages to push every button. This was such a beautiful love story and although at the beginning I did not like Margaret who insisted everyone call her Dr. Margaret Amis-Hollings and who was a snob since she never expected that a man who worked in construction could be her intellectual equal.

    Alright, I did have one thing to complain about. A newborn baby in town was named Linda Elaine—a name everyone thought was stupid. I beg to differ. This very review is being written by Linda Elaine Tonis. Go figure that my name would be mentioned in a book—and no it is not stupid. LOL

    Reviewed in the United States on July 17, 2020
    Dr. Margaret Amis-Hollings, after years working as a professor for a small New Jersey college, loses her position. Shaken to the core, she doesn't know what she's going to do. That is, until she's given a beautiful piece of property in historic Virginia as a bequest. Seeking solitude, she envisions restoring the home and property in order to sell it. But her whimsical thoughts take a nosedive after her first night's sleep. Her home is haunted and judging by her body's reaction, her resident ghost ignites a fire within her. As she works with the guy she hired to help her restore the place, she can't help but think he's got an ulterior motive. When she finds out he's a descendant of the very friendly ghost, she's conflicted. She must follow her destiny. Which man will seduce her and win her heart?

    Passionate Destiny is an erotic paranormal romance unlike anything I've read before. Is an apparition able to give a human pleasure? This part of the plot I found hard to believe at first, but Dee S. Knight changed my mind by the time I finished it. A heroine at a crossroads in her life? I disliked Margaret from the beginning. I found her abrasiveness hard to relate to. But the more I discovered what makes Margaret tick, the more I understood her. A love triangle with one of them being a ghost? I have never read anything like this before. I'm a huge romance lover and this book reaffirmed my belief of love finding you when you least expect it. A brilliant paranormal romance with plenty of hot interludes. Highly recommend!
