| Judge Eliza O'Brien has lived her entire life the way she knew that her mother wanted -- professional, self-contained, and emotionless. Joseph Acosta knew immediately that Eliza was the one woman that he wanted. Joseph lived an openly dominant life and to the pleasure of them both, he was eventually able to teach Eliza to release herself with him sexually. As much as Eliza loved Joseph, she was determined to continue in her public role as a totally controlled judge.
Sequestered Passion is an wonderfully graphic and beautifully complex story of a man and woman who love each other, but have difficulty living with each other. Ms. Dane skillfully wove several layers into Sequestered Passion. Eliza and Joseph are fully defined characters who walked out of the story. Sex was incredible hot and arousing between them and Ms. Dane pulled me in along with them. Their passion held them together in secrecy and finally that was not enough -- they had to decided where their futures led. Ms. Dane has long been one of my favorite authors and I plan to continue reading her work as often as possible.
