"Sensual story of faith!"

Annie thought she had it all. Even though her family is Jewish, neither one of her parents are what anyone would call devout. With her mother's family being orthodox, there was no way her mother would even think of living that way. Whenever her faith came to her mind, the only thing Annie's mother could recall was her father saying how glad he was not to be a woman. So Annie never practiced her faith and never worried about it. Instead, she was a sexually liberated woman, happily eating non- Kosher foods and dressing however she wanted.

Everything was going well in Annie's life, that is, until she met Joel, an Orthodox Jew who strictly adheres to the principles of his faith. Annie tries everything to get Joel into bed, but nothing works. Joel has already decided Annie will be his bride, which means no sex until after they are married.

Will Annie become religious and follow the rules of the Orthodox Jew? What of her family? Will they ever accept Joel?

DOUBLE MITZVAH is a highly erotic story of faith. Erica DeQuaya has done a wonderful job of blending the two together. While this is a very short story, Erica DeQuaya has done a good job of making her point. We feel for Annie when her parents try to talk her out of seeing Joel and as she begins to question her own faith, or lack thereof. This is a highly sensual story which I highly recommend to those who have ever questioned their faith.

Summary

On the surface, Annie seems to have it all; good times, money and plenty of men to warm her bed. But her libido and emotions take a nose dive when she meets Joel, an Orthodox Jew with a devastating body and personality to match. Unfortunately for Annie (a non-observant Jew herself), Joel is devastatingly devout, and determined to save himself for marriage even as he relentlessly pursues her.

Annie must reclaim her lost faith and sacrifice her desire for immediate gratification to claim the ultimate role as Joel's life-mate. But it isn't easy; as both fall deeper in love with each other, they must fight the passionate urge to consummate physically the deep bond they share emotionally.

Told from Annie's point of view, Double Mitzvah describes the fiery attraction between two people of different cultures, set against the background of a religion rich with tradition, culture and warmth...
