Luciano's Forbidden Desire

9.3 / 10.0
She's sin wrapped in a nun habit. He is the devil who makes her want to confess. Luciano Moretti, the mafia's most feared enforcer, kills without hesitation, prays to no god, and bleeds for the Cosa Nostra. Sister Elizabeth has spent her life behind church walls, burying her desires under layers of penance and prayer. She is supposed to be untouchable-a quiet, secluded nun devoted to faith. But when she finds him bleeding on the altar one night, their worlds collide in a sin neither heaven nor hell can cleanse. He's meant to marry her sister to seal a deal between two mafia empires. She's meant to keep her vows and distance. But temptation has a cruel sense of humour... Because he's the last man she should want. She's the only woman he can't have. But one touch, one look, and everything sacred begins to crumble. Luciano does not seek salvation. Instead, he lures her into a dangerous path, one that includes everything she is meant to avoid, and everytime she whispers "forgive me, Father," her soul sinks deeper into him. As bloodlines clash and loyalty turns to betrayal, Elizabeth learns that the war outside the chapel isn't the only one she must survive. Because Luciano's world is built on violence and secrets, one of which binds her fate to his in ways neither of them saw coming. Desire clashes with devotion. Duty turns to betrayal. And when they're both drowning in a love so forbidden, not even God can save them.

Luciano's Forbidden Desire Chapter 1

DEAREST GENTLE READERS,

Lovelies, as the blurb implies, this is a dark romance book which explores complex themes, might cause conflicting emotions, and could tend to rattle your moral values. Trust me when I say, it will get intense as you read on, but if it's something you can't handle-take a deep breath, splash a cup of cold water on your face, sleep and step away for a while when it becomes too overwhelming... then return and please, pick up from where you left off.

It's a forbidden romance trope, so it's definitely going to test you at intervals. You might read things that would make you want to slap the FL or throw the ML into a ditch-yes, it's that triggering. But, I would prefer it if you read this book with an open mind, knowing that there's a lot to come, knowing that it's called dark romance for a reason.

Please, have this in mind before you drop a vile comment. Remember, your mental health and beliefs is of utmost concern and in the same way the characters are humans too, life can be a little tough and rough along the way because we're not all that perfect, so kindly, cut them some slacks while reading.

Thank you ❣.

Other trigger warnings include:

•Stalking, breaking and entering, surveillance.

•Graphic Violence and death

•Mentions of human trafficking (there are no first person POVs of any trafficking victims, but you'll get a hint of the trauma it leaves behind. Please, if you know someone who is a victim of human trafficking, or you get a hint of any suspicious activity related to this, please contact agencies responsible for protecting citizens and victims from these traffickers. Let's all come together to make the world a better and safe place.)

•Explicit sexual scenes.

•Kidnapping and blackmail.

•Cheating (not between main characters)

•A male lead who is basically a red flag all the way to his bones.

Please, proceed with caution and an open mind.

Point of Views- POVs

••~••~••~••

This book is written in dual point of view. Regardless, you might stay with a character for several chapters if it helps potray emotions and actions best.

Nevertheless, I will try my best to blend the potraiture of both POVs together, to help you get a taste of each character equally.

••~••~•••~••

UPDATE SCHEDULE

••~••~•••~••

I promise you at least one to three chapters per day, regardless of the fact that I might skip a day or two here and there. So please, engage with patience as life can get really tough at times. I'm a law student who is trying to juggle writing and academics, please bear with me.

DEDICATION

••~•••~•••~••

To all my girlies who love their fictional men dangerous, lurking in the shadows and are colourblind to those walking red flags-remember to run when they're real.

•••~••~••~••

AUTHOR'S PLEA.

•••~••~••~••

Dearies, it would mean so much to me if you can drop in-chapter comments, vote, support and drop 5-star rating reviews in the review section. Trust me, after a long day at school and the struggle to keep up with daily updates, seeing them serves as an encouragement to me to keep going, it'll be your voice as a reader to me... to tell me that I'm doing something right.

Your feedback matters, so please, don't be a silent reader. I'll love to hear your thoughts on every single chapter and the book overall.

Xoxo,

Betty Kris.

❤.
