RUTHLESS BLOOD - Book ThreeShe survived being sold, claimed, and crowned. Now someone older than all of it wants her name.
Valentina Pietra arrives in Palermo knowing three things: Marcella Bianchi is rebuilding. The clinic beneath the city has been destroying women for decades. And whatever was done in her mother's name - she is going to end it.
What she doesn't expect is what she finds under the Convent of Ashes. Records. Files. Her own name, catalogued before she was old enough to know it meant something. The truth about who her mother really was - and the false identity she wore like armour.
Matteo is beside her. Not behind. Not in front. Beside - the way he has been since she stopped needing him to stay.
Together they burn the doctrine, build something new, and sign their names to it in blood.
But the epilogue arrives in a cream envelope, edge-singed, sealed in dark gold wax.
There are still three names you were never told. One of them is yours.
Ruthless Blood is the explosive, emotionally devastating conclusion to the Moretti Syndicate trilogy. Everything that was set in motion in Book One ends here - and something older, and far more dangerous, begins.
Early Reader Reviews: "A brutal, sensual chess match. Ruthless Blood cements Valentina as the coldest woman in the genre-and the most unforgettable."
"This isn't a romance. It's a revolution. And I would burn churches to see what she does next."
"Matteo and Valentina have reached god-tier levels of slow-burn, soul-splitting devotion. No one writes power like this."
"If you love morally gray heroines, cult unraveling, and prose so sharp it bleeds, welcome to your next obsession."
About the Author:
Dante Bellari writes about dangerous men, defiant women, and the kind of love that doesn't beg-it burns. Known for twisting power dynamics, brutal emotion, and dialogue that cuts like a switchblade, Dante crafts slow-burn dark romances where nothing is safe... except obsession.
When he's not writing, he's drinking black coffee, avoiding small talk, and pretending he's not thinking about his next morally gray character.
