📚 Book 4 of a completed 5-book series
Lucca When a ruthless mafia underboss finally crosses paths with the woman who's haunted his thoughts, he discovers she's carrying scars darker than his own—secrets tied to a devil he intends to destroy. Chloe has survived her nightmares by building walls, but Lucca is determined to tear them down, even if it means dragging her into the dangerous underworld he rules. Their connection is electric and terrifying, pulling her deeper into his world where the line between salvation and damnation blurs. What unfolds is an intense, gritty romance where two broken people must navigate violence, betrayal, and the question of whether love can survive in the darkness.
Reading soundtrack
Dark, sensual alternative and R&B with an edge—moody indie-pop, brooding electronic beats, and smoldering vocals. Think dangerous attraction, tension crackling beneath the surface, and the intoxicating pull between two broken souls. Atmospheric yet raw.
