Ritmo y Deseo Book 2

He's always been both:
Home and the storm that wrecked her.

Luna Santos is carrying the weight of the world, a broken heart, and a secret that could break the internet. She’s pregnant. The father is Rio Castillo, THE global reggaetón superstar.

 

Whose name alone steals her breath.

Whose touch aún arde en su piel.

Whose music is the soundtrack to her life.

 

The amor that started as a show for the cameras became too real too fast… and left huellas too deep to ever erase. Until old wounds and insecurity tore them apart.

 

Rio spent months trying to bury his regrets beneath his art, sold-out arenas, platinum records, and screaming fans. None of it worked. Every lyric, performance, and song is a call back to the sirena who owns all corners de su alma.

 

When fate forces them back into the same room, it takes one look y una bachata for their bodies to intertwine. The heartbreak and the love they tried to deny come rushing back in an all-consuming wave.

And when Rio learns the truth about what he stands to lose, he won’t make the same mistake twice. The future he thought was lost isn’t gone. Luna’s been carrying it all along.

 

Now they must navigate an impossible secret, relentless media scrutiny, and people determined to expose the one thing they’re desperate to protect. Loving each other has never been their problem. It’s surviving the enemies and chismosas who plot against them.

 

She’s his diosa, his muse…his everything.

He’s la tormenta in her soul and the song her heart plays on repeat.
