The Passion

The Passion is about the power of love, good and bad forms, betrayal, redemption, and finding what one is truly looking for.

This is the first werewolf based book that I have read that gives one a complete look into a werewolf pack culture. 

 

The story was told as one restates events that have happened to them in the past. The events and views are told from the main characters of the novel:

Alexander Antonov Devoncroix - The charismatic werewolf who adores humans too well, but whose ultimate loyalty is to the pack (He has all the "facts" of what occurred at the time).

Tessa LeGuerre, Human, who has become part of the werewolf world who is struggling to find her place within it and to understand the werewolf culture (who falls under the spell of a very powerful, very sensual werewolf).

Elisa Devoncroix - The imperial pack leader who lays claim to Alexander. Beloved "pet" of select members of the pack werewolf.

This book was very enthralling and you really feel like you are living in the world of the werewolf. There are times when the book is slow, more so at the third or fourth chapter towards the middle of the book, but that is because the book is unfolding history and to understand the story all the facts are needed.

The world that Donna Boyd has created is amazing, her great writing skills and use of description make the story that much better.
