Divine Providence is one of the most mysterious concepts. Despite being familiar with it, Cecilia Løkkeberg realises she is yet to understand it fully when her life is turned upside down by an unforeseen event - her father ends up in the hospital in critical condition due to a car crash, just a few weeks after their return from Paris when he reveled to Cecilia the truth about her origins. Thus, Cecilia finds herself at the helm of her father's business, as she was the only one he trusted with the leadership of his life's work. Caught between the pressure of managing her brand new responsibility and her own troubles, Cecilia begins to suspect that her father's car crash might've been more than an accident and rather a carefully planned revenge scheme. When Laurent appears in Norway, Cecilia becomes aware that things are much more complicated than they seem. While trying to solve all the mysteries and dealing with the tasks given to her by her Augustinian mentor, Cecilia is also reminiscing about an old flame, while she finds herself slowly falling for the Swiss philosopher who continues believing she's worth saving.

The world is a realm of tribulations, evolving and changing constantly. Its history serves as a blueprint of humankind, but few receive the gift of discovering it fully. Cecilia grew up thinking she's just a quirky girl with a passion for art, struggling to fit the standards of her upper class Norwegian family. Or so she believes until an uncanny event throws her into a sea of confusion: an inner force she's unaware of shatters into pieces the vitrine containing her mother's prized porcelain collection. Guided by a burning desire for truth and a cranky Augustinian hermit, protecting the remaining goodness of humanity is what makes Cecilia embark on a quest to eradicate all the darkness she comes across. As she tries to understand herself and her nature while carrying out the tasks she receives from her mentor, hidden truths begin to unravel and her eyes open to a new reality - a world dominated by dark forces and the occult. Brought to Paris by an apparently easy mission she's faced with yet another strange encounter when a mythical creature chases her down a street. While trying to decipher the origin of the evil snail, she's thrown into a series of increasingly challenging situations. The aspects she discovers regarding her genealogy and the presence of a mysterious stranger make Cecilia realize that her task won't be so easy to fulfill, especially when the alliances she's forced to form blur out the border between good and evil. Will she choose to follow the teachings she received and fulfill her purpose or will she get lured into the abyss of temptation?

N.B. CONTENUTI DELICATI Victoria VS Damiano

Era tutto dannatamente sbagliato. Ma quando erano insieme diventava tutto magicamente perfetto.

Vidi una lacrima. Se ne stava tutta sola in un deserto arido da tempo. Accostai il palmo della mano alla sua guancia e raccolsi quella porzione di cielo. La tempesta richiamata si ripresentò all'interno delle sue pupille. Una grandine di lacrime cadde minando il suolo, singhiozzi tuonarono fin dai polmoni, fulmini passarono da lui a me come fossimo una cosa sola. Lo sentivo il vento che aggiungeva la sua sofferenza alla mia. Io potevo sopportarlo, lo avrei fatto per lui. 𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝑳𝒐𝒏𝒆𝒍𝒊𝒆𝒔𝒕. 𝑫𝒂 𝒔𝒐𝒍𝒊 𝒊𝒏𝒔𝒊𝒆𝒎𝒆. Damiano e Victoria sono la mia ispirazione da due anni a questa parte e credo che ormai non sia un segreto visti i numerosi libri che ho scritto su di loro. Ho deciso prendere i due come personaggi simbolici e costruirci attorno un mondo diverso da quello in cui vivono nella realtà. Già dal primo capitolo si nota la totale differenza dalla loro vita attuale. È una storia che vede l'amore come protagonista e che ne mette in luce ogni lato, a partire dalla bellezza del sentimento in se, continuando con una sessualità che vuole sperimentare e che è concepita come tutt'altro che un tabù. I coprotagonista sono il dolore e l'autosabotazione. Nella vita di ogni individuo ci sono momenti bui e molte persone già da piccole sono costrette a convivere con dei traumi. In questa storia riporto le ripercussioni che si verificano con la crescita. Consiglio la lettura a chiunque, a chi non è un fan dei Måneskin ed anche a chi non shippa Damiano e Vic. Può darsi che non sia scritta con il lessico più ricco del mondo, ma sono ancora giovane e punto a migliorare💘
