I believe the answer is:

desire

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'lust' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'a person with passion' is the wordplay.
'a person with' becomes 'des' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'passion' becomes 'ire' (ire is passionate anger).
'des'+'ire'='DESIRE'

'of' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for desire that I've seen before include "Strong wish" , "Reside (anag.)" , "Want strongly" , "Want to reside?" , "Longing or wish" .)
