Lussuria Tour Stop!

An emotional erotic heart-wrenching story of lust, love and light

Alexis Evangeline Robertson is young, insecure and daunted with painful memories from her dark, tortured childhood. She has rules, and she has boundaries.

She never lets anyone too close.

Lucca Caruso has the most mesmerizing crystal azure blue eyes and a heart of gold. When Lexi meets this Italian God, she doesn’t expect to see him again.

But fate intervenes.

While on vacation at a Villa in Val D'Orcia, near the Chianti hills outside of Florence, she is more than surprised to see Lucca arrive at the very same villa. Lexi begins a journey of self-discovery, helplessly folding, melting and crumbling to the temptation of her heart’s desire.

After the desires of lust ...

And the sweetness of love ...

Lexi will spread her wings towards the light ...

This is the story of one girl’s destiny to find her light from her sinister, dark and harrowing past and the one man who can take her there.

This book is DEEP. Seriously, it’s one of those books that totally takes you on a character’s entire journey.  Every painful, horrible, ecstatic, incredible moment of self-discovery.

Alexis Robertson (Lexi) has had a difficult life.  She was abused and has trouble trusting people.  In fact, the only people in her life she does trust is her best friend Hazel, and her brother Cameron. Her life is guided by rules she has set for herself that she sticks to in order to give her a sense of security and control. She meets Lucca Caruso at her place of work, and discovers he stirs unfamiliar and unwanted feelings in her.  When she goes on vacation, the last person she expects to see in Italy is Lucca…but there he is.  Lucca feels their meeting is fate and vows to get close to her.  Can he get past her rules and open up her guarded heart?

This book deals with some heavy subject matter, but it is dealt with well.  The main character, Lexi, is heartbreaking.  The way she was written really helped me to feel compassion and connection with her.  I wanted things to get better for her.  I wanted her to come out of her self-imposed exile.  I wanted more for her.  And Lucca, he’s everything that a man should be.  Kind, compassionate, caring and invested in helping Lexi. 

This is also a pretty steamy read.  Lexi and Lucca have a whirlwind romance, and they burn bright and hot for each other.  Bow-chica-wow-wow, people.  This is a very hot read.  And it’s not just sex in a book for the sake of sex, it is a necessary part of the story and convinces the reader of Lucca’s point that he and Lexi were meant to be.

My only complaint about this book is the fact that I felt sometimes it got bogged down by the details.  It’s a very descriptive book and I felt that at times, it got lost a little in those descriptions.  On the flip side of that, I felt that some parts of the book felt a bit rushed.  Overall, however, this is a romantic and beautiful story.  From what I understand, there’s going to be more books in this series.  I hope they come out soon!  4 stars.

       

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.”

“Then don’t, write it in your journal.”

With these words we melt into each other, passionately kissing in a tight embrace filled with love and traces of uncertain fear.

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.
