Blood and Lies: The Bellucci Dynasty

I’m sleeping with a masked man, and I’ve never seen his face.

The heir to the Bellucci dynasty is dead.

But who will take his place?

After running away from the toxic binds of her family at nineteen, I, Carlotta Bellucci, vowed to make a life for myself. One without overbearing Mafia men and the threat of violence.

Now, ten years later, I have all I’ve ever desired; a stable job, a stable income and weekly, no strings attached, meetings with Sir, a masked man who treats me like a Princess and satiates me desires without me ever having to see his face.

Until when my older brother, Cristiano is found dead and the life I’ve built for myself comes crashing down to the ground.

Not only must I take his place as heir to our family’s diamond dynasty, but also to the secret society I didn’t even know existed, of which Cristiano was a member of.

They call themselves The Thirteen.

But who are these men, and could they be responsible for Cristiano’s untimely death?

When the invitations begin pouring in to join, I decide to test fate and accept their request to take my brother’s place. If only so I can find out what really happened to Cristiano.

Except, when I get there, things aren’t exactly as they seem.

Not to mention, the sight of the attractive leader of The Thirteen—Mr Rome Foronari and his bodyguard Mr Cassiel Angelo—making my skin sear and my stomach flip upside down.

But then Mr. Folonari speaks and my heart drops for an entirely different reason.

Because I know that voice.

That’s Sir’s voice.
