Physiotherapist taunted with disconcerting memories from her dark, harrowing
past.
She has rules, and she has boundaries. She never lets anyone too close.
At the age of twenty six, her life is about to
change. Her mental filing system will transcend into overdrive when she
encounters a tall, dark, handsome stranger who’s painstakingly gorgeous and
infectious.
He’s a wealthy business man and a very generous
one. An 'Italian God' by the name of Lucca Caruso with the most mesmerising
crystal azure blue eyes and heart of gold.
Never expecting to see him again after their
chance meeting, fate intervenes again.
Whilst on vacation to a Tuscan cooking course in
a Villa in Val D'Orcia near the Chianti hills outside of Florence with her
eccentric and energetic best friend Hazel, she is more than surprised to see
Lucca Caruso arrive at the very same villa.
For someone who has never known the feelings of
lust or desire, Lexi suddenly finds herself thrown into a scenario which she
has never before encountered.
Beginning a journey of self-discovery and the
exploration of old and new uncertainties she’s helplessly folding, melting and
crumbling to the temptation of her heart’s desire.
As Lexi struggles to confide in Lucca and his
family, she is unaware that her past is propelling towards her.
What will happen if the Caruso family finds out
the truth? Will this mean the end of any
chance of happiness for Lexi or will Lucca show her how to be loved, how to
feel special and protected?
In an emotional erotic heart-wrenching story of
lust, love and light with mystery, twists and turns Lexi discovers an insatiable
appetite for Lucca Caruso.
It’s hot, sexy, expressive and an intriguing
story of survival. One woman’s destiny to find her light and there's only one
man that can take her there.
Only after she learns how to lust and love will
she spread her wings towards the light, his light...or will she?

her…what will become of the beautiful Lexi Robertson?

for the handsome, wealthy, protective and insatiable Italian lover Lucca
Caruso. Ultimately he is a gentle lover and he is a raucous lover, he's the man
that we all want and can’t get enough of.
Welcome to the Luminara Series…..
Lussuria is an
incredible beginning to an equally incredible series that is going to captivate
our hearts and minds.
Lussuria has a very
intriguing story and SJ’s writing is unique. The way it was written…The
prologue…The epilogue…I can actually say I haven’t read anything even remotely
similar to this book. Everything about it is unique. I would like to
congratulate SJ for this because it’s not easy to write such a distinguishable book,
especially these days that there are so many books and authors out there
begging for the reader’s attention. And
Lussuria and the Luminara Series are definitely drawing our attention!
I really like this book
and the whole concept SJ is going for. However, there were some things I didn’t
quite agree with. For example, I didn’t find it very realistic. Of course, you
cannot time the whole falling-in-love-procedure. But falling in love so deeply
and so intensely in such a short period of time seemed a bit surreal to me. They
didn’t even have time to return home and they were already moving in and
planning for their forever/future. Yes it is romantic and it may be liked by
many readers, but it was too surreal for me. Plus, I didn’t like the fact that
the female lead character Lexi apologized so damn much, especially in the first
half of the book!!It was quite amusing…
Despite the above,
Lussuria is a wonderful book and the story is unique and utterly unforgettable!
And that’s what I loved the most about it…An avid reader, like me, reads so
many books…And the fact that a book is that captivating that stays with you and
inside your head is admirable..It’s what a book supposed to do, don’t you
think?..Well Lussuria does that and even more..
It’s a story you will
not forget!

Excerpt:
When I saw your eyes filled with dread and fear,
my heart nearly stopped, I thought I would lose you, I need you and want
nothing more, please trust me Doc, I ….I love you, I love you Dolcezza.”
He claims my mouth with profound longing and as soon
as our lips meet the chemistry and energy ignites a burning desire deep in my
soul and heart. My body submits to him with his sensitive words.
I’ve folded yet again!
Another tidal wave of water is flooding from my
eyes cascading down my cheeks, he has me…
“You love me?” my voice is breaking, my eyes
weeping.
“Yes, I love you; I’m very much in love with
you. You are mine forever and my something special baby.”
My body and mind become weak. I stare into his
wide wet azure blue eyes,
“Lucca I…….I don’t know what to say.”
With these words we melt into each other,
passionately kissing in a tight embrace filled with love and traces of
uncertain fear.
About the Author:
SJ Molloy, first time British Author of ‘The
Luminara Series’ was born in Edinburgh, Scotland. As a young child, her family
moved and raised her in Lanarkshire, Scotland where she currently resides with
her husband, two daughters and her energetic, hyperactive loving gun dog who is
utterly spoiled.
SJ is a qualified Fitness Instructor and Health
& Fitness Motivator of various fitness styles and disciplines. Music and
dance aerobics have always been a pleasure and passion for her. SJ will
sporadically make up dance style routines at any hour of the day when a move
comes to her or piece of music moves or inspires her. Currently not teaching classes she is
focusing her time into nurturing her yearning passion for creative writing,
exchanging one visualisation for another.
As a child, SJ loved to write in journals and
make up short stories and has a flare for all things creative. With an
overactive imagination at times, SJ adores to make notes, visualise scenes and
settings to create characterisations.
While on holiday with her family one summer
reading book after book, she had a flash of inspiration and has had various
ideas whirling around in her mind ever since. It was not until she pulled back
on teaching classes that she found the courage, time and insight into actually
bringing these ideas to life.
In February 2013 she decided to bring that
imagination to light by beginning her writing
journey with ‘Lussuria’ the first instalment in ‘The Luminara Series’
available from late October 2013.
Being a self-confessed book junkie, she loves
nothing better than to get lost in an emotional and moving book. A true
romantic at heart, her guilty pleasure is reading heart-warming, passionate
stories and falling in love with her favourite fictional characters.
With five books already mapped out in ‘The
Luminara Series’, SJ’s busy creative mind has already planned two more
fictitious novels, both stand-alone romance books and very different in their
own right.
When she is not writing or reading, spending
time with family and friends or exercising and walking her dog, SJ loves all
things practical and creative. Dancing, music, cooking, travelling, good food
and wine and painting are her favourite past times along with laughter, lots
and lots of laughter.
