Illicit Passion (Royal Command Book 2) by Sarah Stuart is an interesting tale of incest, a story of a family on the edge of destruction by its own dirty secrets. What happens when a woman loves her own father, passionately, intimately, sexually? The booming voice of the world will be rising, saying it is taboo, but to the elegant and successful television personality, Lisette, it could be a completely different story. Lisette has secretly loved her father and has had a child by him, and now, what has been secretly guarded may be brought to the eyes of the world. The media would want nothing more than to feed on the scandal that could rock the world. The family has to do something and they have to do it pretty fast or their already shaky family bonds might be shattered forever. The question is: how much time do they have to contain this secret and who might have known about it?

Sarah Stuart’s Illicit Passion (Royal Command Book 2) is a riveting tale of a family saga built around incest, blackmail, and the stabbings-in-the-back that take place when someone knows something that shouldn’t be known. Stuart is a storyteller who will please readers with her elegance of style. Her prose is sensual and exquisitely beautiful, and she creates characters that are as compelling as they are memorable. The story is interestingly unnerving, with enough suspense to keep readers turning the pages until the very last page, and then they will want more. This one will keep you glued to your chair until you finish it, and you’ll think about the characters for a pretty long time.
