Private Passions

by Laura DeHart Young

To outside observers, Atlanta-based advertising executive Sara Gray is a pillar of strength -- the picture of a woman in total control. But deep inside, her life is raging in turmoil. The daily stress of competing in the dog-eat-dog corporate world is being cruelly intensified by the emotional strain of a terrible secret -- the physical and emotional battering she received at the hands of her ex-lover.Scores of women would love to give Sara the comfort she needs, including popular club owner Kristie Trevor, and dynamic local activist Jasmin Matthews. But how can she bring herself to trust them? For despite what her mind and body may tell her, Sara's wounded heart is still held prisoner by the devastating power of the past.

[Lesbian Romance Reader · Rating 4 out of 5]

This book was more emotionally complex than I was expecting. It did not end how I expected it to.

Domestic abuse, bomb attack

[Dide · Rating 3 out of 5]

I liked this book for its references on abuse and terrorism but other than that I found it shallow in character, plot and background.
