The Passionate Italian

New coverPassion wasn't high on Rose's agenda growing up in poverty: survival was, independence was, but not the crazy, elemental passion that she'd found with Giovanni Visconti. But, after a year together, the passion had twisted into jealousy and control and Rose had disappeared--seemingly unable to deal with her husband's passionate nature.But, two years later, Giovanni tracks Rose down. He's discovered something that makes him realize that there was more to Rose's departure than he'd first thought, and he's determined to control his jealous passions in order to prove to his wife that she can trust him. But Rose is keeping secrets from him--secrets with the potential to destroy more than just their relationship...ReviewI found this a very good book--entertaining and stimulating and ultimately a very satisfying reading experience...long enough to allow for good story and plot development and to develop characters that are realistic and basically very human.
