"There is "alpha" and then there is LUCA"-- Crazy Chaotic Book Babes

Luca

She’s off-limits. I know that—I just don’t give a sh*t.
Because I’m brought to my knees with every look. Made to beg by only the promise of her mouth.
I’m addicted, and I haven’t even taken a hit.
But this is a complication in the middle of a dangerous game.
Bound to a violent legacy.
Sono battezzato nel sangue e consacrato con la morte. La Mafia è la mia famiglia.
I am baptized in blood and consecrated with death. The Mafia is my family.
And yet here I sit, in the dark, smoking a cigar, watching the girl I shouldn’t chase—wishing she’d f*ucking run because all I want to do is catch her and devour every single gorgeous part of her body until she whispers my name like a prayer.
Get ready, Gretchen…I’m coming for you.
And there’s no escaping.

5 out of 5 stars
Sei la mia anima gemella.
I know that in my review of Truth, I said that King was everything. But I lied because Luca is EVERYTHING. I mean they’re twins, so they can both be everything, right?Worship is book 2 in Trilina’s Sinful Series and damn was it sinful! We met Luca and Gretchen in Truth, Gretchen is best friends with Drew, she pretends to be Shelby, Luca’s wife in order to get into the hospital when Luca is beaten almost to death.Luca and Gretchen are like magnets, instantly drawn to each other. The friendship build up was probably one of my favorite things about their story. While Luca worked on cleaning up his mess, they talked and texted as friends, getting to know each other. He was beyond thoughtful and sweet to her helping her to work on overcoming her grief. But he was also dominant and possessive.The way he would say sweet and dirty things in Italian, and then when she would demand he tell her in English, he’d tell her one day.I could not put this down. It had me hooked from page 1 - Trilina has perfected her art and I cannot wait to read book 3 - Depraved - in fact, as soon as I finished Worship, I started the first chapter of Depraved and I’m 100% sure it’s going to be another 5 Star read!If you haven’t already, add all 3 of these to your immediate TBR - you won’t be disappointed!

    I didn’t think this series could get any better after reading Truth, but I was wrong. After reading Worship I can say this series is AMAZING!!! This book was even better than Truth and that is saying something because I loved Truth.

    If these first two books in this series are any indication, this series is going to be one of my All Time favorites!!!!

    Worship is the second book in Trilina Pucci’s Sinful Series. It is a complete standalone and told in Dual POV, but I would recommend reading these books in order. I say that because this storyline in this book kind of carries over from Truth. I don’t think you would be lost reading this book out of order, but I feel there are some spoilers in this book for Truth if you haven’t read it first. I loved the flow and pace of this story.

    Worship is a sexy, emotional, and angsty story that will suck you in right from the beginning. I truly didn’t want this story to end. I loved both Luca and Gretchen. Luca is everything you want in a HOT Italian Alpha Hero!!! I loved watching these two form a friendship before venturing into something more. Their chemistry was off the hook ;) I thought Gretchen was the perfect match for Luca, even though their relationship was unconventional, their connection was real!!!

    I loved seeing Dom and Drew in this story and seeing where their future has lead them. I also liked getting to know the other ‘brothers’. I look forward to the other books that are coming in this series!!!

    Trilina Pucci has rocked my socks off with this series so far and I would 100% recommend this books to anyone who likes a great ALPHA male Hero. If you like your books angsty, raw and gritty but with an amazing love story, then these are the books for you!!!

    I had the privilege of reading both versions of Worship, and the one constant in both drafts was the sexuality, fierceness, and control that resonated off the pages when it came to Luca King, and let me tell you, this guy could talk a chastity belt off a virgin, especially with his smooth talking Italian and his panty melting dirty talk.

    The title itself has interesting implications for the story line, but the fact that Trilina Pucci named this series of standalone romances, Sinful, even further complicates an already dangerous and messy situation, indicating that as much as Luca King wants to worship at the feet of the object of his obsession, Gretchen Andrews, in all ways possible, his hands are tied, requiring a level of trust that hasn’t yet been earned, forcing both Luca and Gretchen to deal with a crazy amount of envy, even when things are definitely not what they seem.

    Luca King - the layers to this man are endless, but he chooses who sees what facade he wants them to see, and the only people he allows into his inner circle are those who he considers his family, and even some of them don’t know everything he hides behind the control and power he emanates. Luca is an unstoppable force…that is until he meets Gretchen and he throws his carefully constructed live in disarray, forcing him to decide what and who he’s willing to risk for the woman who brings this powerful man to his knees.

    Gretchen Andrews is definitely the woman for Luca, not only because she can hold her own with him, but because she accepts him for who he is, the alpha male who demands her submission in certain aspects of their connection, the ruthless man who protects his own, the brother who always puts his family first. She’s a ballbuster and a sassy one at that, but Luca and her feelings for him make her feel more than a little off-kilter, and an emotional Gretchen is one who will question and distrust, refusing to listen or accept things even if the truth is more than apparent as long as she’s willing to look.

    The fact that these two can’t keep their hands off one another, even knowing what they’re up against and how tangled up Luca’s life is with not only the mother of his daughter but his ties to a dangerous underworld, illustrates just how desperate they make one another, and while that kind of love is difficult to find, it’s also one that can overwhelm and destroy, which means that the extenuating circumstances of Luca’s life combined with the reckless feelings they have for each other and the all-consuming need to claim one another make overcoming their obstacles essential but at the same time never ending.

    Gretchen is definitely Luca’s Angel - the moniker he named her - and he gladly worships her, but without trust, all they have is their need and lust for one another and neither of those things will sustain them when everything is on the line.

    The King twins are self-made men who know what they want and what they refuse to accept, and now that they’ve claimed their women, it’s time for their other brother to find his own, amore per sempre, and I can’t wait to see who knocks him on his butt, so he can understand exactly how his two brothers feel about their leading ladies.

    How?? How did i enjoy this? I’m still trying to figure that out. I think this book may have altered my brain chemistry.
    There’s definitely something about these King brothers that makes me side with them right, wrong or ugly.

    OW WOW - 'You can't have a rainbow without a bit of rain' - with a sentence like that in a book you know you are going to love it.

    Lucas and Gretchen were first introduced to us in book 1 of this series 'Truth' and even then you knew their story was going to be off the charts and it is!

    Lucas in a complicated marriage to woman he isn't living with, rising his 6 month old daughter who he loves to the moon back and trying to sort out the family business (mafia) then add in Gretchen who won't sleep with a married man no matter the tricks Lucas has up his sleeve and you are in for a great reading experience.

    Lucas becomes the rock and friend that Gretchen needs when coming to terms with the death of her father and she shows Lucas that sometimes there is more to life than just revenge. I loved the friendship side of this story as it was told beautifully and was woven so well into the overall story!If you love books by, Natasha Madison, Lacey Black, Kristen Proby, Kelly Elliott, Kaylee Ryan you will love this book. What are you waiting for download now!

    Trilina Pucci delivers a sexy, intense, emotionally gripping and seductive story that will hold every part of you heart hostage.
    There is nothing about Luca King I don’t love, He is book boyfriend perfection- the twin brother of Dom KING.
    Gretchen Andrews is the sassy no nonsense heroine that you want to be BFFs with. She is Drew’s best friend (from Truth)
    Their story was never going to be straight forward, but everything about how this story is written will captivate you from the very start to the end. This will be one of my unforgettable books- the chemistry between Luca and Gretchen will make combust! It’s tangible, it’s electric, it will set you on fire. But this story is so much more... can love be worth more than retribution and revenge?

    Trilina Pucci you are a new favourite author for me. I could let your words swallow me up whole all day long!!

    Can I give more than 5 STARS please??!!
