Lorenzo: Chicago Ruthless: Book 3

Grief is the price we pay for love...

My name is Lorenzo Moretti. Born to be head of the Cosa Nostra, except that I chose love over my birthright.

On our wedding day, my father cursed our union, swearing on his own blood that my wife and I would never live out our days in happiness.

I guess he was right, because fate stole her from me and I'm left to live an empty life without her, with a shattered heart and only half a soul.

On the day my wife died, I swore I'd never love anyone like that again, and it's a promise I kept for two years.

A promise I kept until her...

She sauntered into my life wearing a dress the color of sunshine and with nothing else but an old Mustang and a smile. Beaten and bruised and seeking refuge behind my family's walls. But I'm no white knight looking for redemption, and she's sure no damsel in distress.

She's annoying as hell. With no filter and an eternally sunny disposition. She says whatever's on her mind, no matter how poorly judged it might be.

She's everything I don't want.

But she might just be everything I need.

And I don't know how much longer I can resist her sweet smile and her sinful curves...

Because there's only so long you can stand in the sun before giving in to its heat.

Between The Covers

Welcome to Between the Covers Book Club!


We are a small book club that is all about the Booktok world! Our main choice of books are the dark romance, but we will also have a choice of other genres too!


We will try to meet twice a month. One week will be to pick the book we will be reading. The following weeks will be to discuss all of have read this far. We will continue to discuss until we have completed the book. We will try to do at least one book a month however we all know that life gets in the way and that may not be possible.


We will switch where we meet every time. One week it will beat my house, the next it will be at someone else's. We do not have to, but I feel that it would be nice to have small refreshments during our meetings.


I hope that you will enjoy your time and enjoy the new friendships that are made during this! I cannot wait to spend time with you!


Love Always,

Victoria
