Pain Loves Passion: Passion Loves Pain

Love is madness, entirely driven by sexual instinct, so the philosophers say... But for thirty-one-year-old Vincent Luther, love transgresses his limitations and transforms into divine possession as soon as he lays eyes on twenty-six-year-old Lana McKenzie, an alluring, aspiring writer...a ghost of his past. The only problem is that he cannot remember her. As a married man and father of two, Vincent believes that he is fulfilled in his marriage and career, but his world comes crashing down when his mother, Isobel, passes away. Unable to cope with his grief, Vincent's dysfunctional relationship with his father worsens when Maxwell Luther introduces Lana as his new, young bride less than six months after Isobel's death. Consumed with anger and resentment, Vincent judges Lana as an opportunist, gold-digger who is after Maxwell's family fortune. His secret attraction towards Lana is eclipsed by his prejudiced view of her character. While their chemistry is undeniably intense and forbidden, their fated reunion sparks a love/ hate dynamic that stretches for an entire year of emotional warfare before all secrets are exposed...and passions.
