„Worship” is second book in the Sinful series written by Trilina Pucci. You met Luca King, Dominic’s brother, one of main characters from this book, in the previous book from this series “Truth”. After I met him too I just couldn’t wait for his story. And what a story it is.
In “Truth” Luca was badly beaten. We learn he has a wife, who never visited him in the hospital but instead went straight to the lawyers to prepare everything in case he would die. But he did make it and now he is set for revenge. Luca has also a daughter who is six months old Ella who is the center of a world for her father.
Other main character of this story is Gretchen Andrews is Drew’s (who we also met in the first book) best friend. I suspected an attraction between them when I saw how Gretchen protected Luca at the hospital. In the second book we are able to see how that attraction grew into something more. Gretchen knows Luca is married and that’s why he is off the limits but is also true that she doesn’t know the whole story. What I really like in this book is that Gretchen is a really powerful woman at work as a director of marketing at Cohen Management, she is definitely not a weak damsel in distress in need of saving. But that stops when she is around Luca. Around him is powerless with the pull and chemistry which is all consuming.
I love how the story between these two started. The got to know each other in maybe slow pace but that pace was perfect for them apparently cause at one point the felt in love in each other. But there are things she doesn’t know and these things are all the things from the dark part of his world. And she doesn’t understand what she’d be signing on for if she was with him and at the same time Luca can’t keep said dark side of his life separate from Gretchen forever. Their relationship was really new and fresh and that’s why they weren’t ready when everything was revealed.
Without giving away any spoilers Luca shares a connection with Gretchen and despite that their relationship is a taboo kind one, what the heart wants, Luca takes. Their relationship they shared and the friendship they built was really well written and I was so happy I was lucky to know their story. Trilina Pucci keeps Luca deliciously alpha and dominant to the core but we are also able to see him changing as his priorities shift when he met his match. Yes, he still is ruthless, aggressive and dangerous yet he is also that kind of man in love who finally found his reason.
Luca’s and Gretchen’s story may be unconventional but as you will know them better and see their raw love you will see it’s at the same time true and very intense. I really love the character of Gretchen who had got sass, really impressive strength and a lot of self-respect. She knew her worth and she never allowed herself to deviate from that. As for Luca he is confident, alpha type and he was a perfect counterpart for Gretchen who was only one woman who could bring him on his knees. I love first book but “Worship” got me so invested that I cannot wait for the next books in this series.
