Ripped Asunder: Det. Lance Fortunato Gay Murder Mystery
A Dark, Erotic Thriller of Lust, Murder, and Forbidden Desire
When a string of brutal murders tears through Boston's leather community, Detective Lance Fortunato-a brooding, smoldering Italian stallion-finds himself thrust into the city's shadowy world of hardcore BDSM. Paired with Killian O'Hara, a brash Irish cop with a body carved from marble and a past steeped in Special Forces secrets, Lance must navigate not only a labyrinth of dark desires but also the searing tension crackling between them.
Going undercover at Leatherbound, Boston's most infamous gay dungeon, the two detectives are immersed in a realm of sweat-slicked bodies, clinking chains, and forbidden pleasures. The air pulses with danger and desire, and the lines between duty and temptation blur as they unravel the twisted secrets lurking in the shadows.
Enter Damien Bloodworth, the dungeon's magnetic and dangerously seductive owner. With the body of a god and a gaze that pierces the soul, Damien pulls Lance and Killian into his orbit of violent delights and sinister secrets. As their investigation deepens, so does Damien's grip on their minds and bodies, leaving them questioning where loyalty ends and desire begins.
With a killer on the loose and their careers-and lives-on the line, Lance and Killian must fight to maintain their focus. But as passions ignite and boundaries shatter, their partnership teeters on the edge of collapse. Will their mission be ripped asunder by the maelstrom of lust and betrayal, or will their bond emerge stronger, forged in the fires of their shared torment?
Packed with pulse-pounding suspense, steamy eroticism, and jaw-dropping twists, Ripped Asunder is an unrelenting thrill ride into the depths of desire, duty, and danger. If you crave dark mysteries spiced with forbidden passions, this scorching addition to the Lance Fortunato Gay Detective series will leave you breathless-and begging for more.
