About this listen
The heart is not commanded.
Giovanni is not sleeping, and he refuses to eat. It's as if he's trying to follow his beloved master to the grave. Silvio is similarly lost as to how to care for his broken-hearted boy, and always there is the haunting sense that his brother is watching, reminding him in subtle ways that he is not adequately providing for his precious schiavo.
But Silvio is determined to be strong, to be the dominant one Giovanni needs and the man he desires in this season of grieving. Together they will forge a new path with virtues unique to their budding dynamic. But even with the discipline, rules, and structure Silvio provides, there is something more Giovanni craves…
Pain.
When Giovanni goes to dangerous lengths to reach his master, all of Silvio’s hard work threatens to unravel. Silvio must figure out a way to soothe his boy, or else Giovanni will succeed in his risky endeavor and be lost to him forever.
Virtuous, the third installment of the Giovanni trilogy, is an introspective MM romance about grief and healing. Trigger warnings for addiction, self-harm, and mentions of past sexual trauma. This audiobook is meant for entertainment purposes only, not as a guide to safe, sane, and consensual BDSM practices.

Six years ago, Jasper Des Moines traded in the only life he knew. In order to keep a promise and a secret, he walked from the only man he’d ever loved. Now, he has a career in need of constant defending, a best friend who knows nothing about his past, and a husband he should love. He has the life he believes he deserves. Until one day, the unfinished business he left behind catches up with him, and he’s faced with the one man he’d never been able to resist or forget.

He's a bad man, and I don't mean trash like your ex. I mean seriously bad. I mean dangerous. You can tell just by looking at him: black eyes, a menacing scowl, and a nose that's been badly broken in the past. He is my arch-nemesis. My mortal enemy. My singular obsession. I was afraid of him when we met. He kidnapped and chained me to a bed. Me—Damon Alexander Beckett of BeckIT fame and fortune. Well, the joke's on him because I'm going to make it my life's mission to destroy him. But first, I have to survive being his captive.

Reed Ellis is absolutely gorgeous but a total newbie to camming, a virtual nobody in my world. I should have just deleted his message request for a steamy on-camera collaboration. Not everyone is cut out to be a camboy. But there's just something about him I couldn't resist. He's timid and inexperienced, quiet and closed off, but his fumbling first times play out scorching hot for the cameras, and our videos together are an instant success. I know I should just ride this out, sit back and watch the money roll in, and then move on.

Twenty years ago, monsters rose on earth and began a new age of civilization. One where humans live in military-controlled, cramped and dirty cities along the coasts, and the majority of the United States is known as the Wastes. A lawless, desolate and dangerous place, teeming with monsters that have claimed the land for their own. Including Wyn the Soul Eater. He appears every three years, making his way across the country and slaughtering humans randomly, sucking them dry until they’re nothing but husks.

The freaks, the creeps, your favorite Netflix documentaries come to life. They lock us up and throw away the key, because we deserve it. But not me. I’m just a lowly bank robber. I don’t belong here, surrounded by psychopaths and killers with no remorse…At least, I don’t think I do.

Like all Necromancers, Cassius Corbin grew up knowing one irrevocable truth: death comes for us all. It was a lesson he learned well when his mother was murdered by fellow witches. Six years later, he is back in the town of Winslow, Massachusetts, to attend Tennebrose University. But that's not the only reason. While he's home, he intends to track down a magical folio stolen from his family centuries ago. Once he finds it, he'll finally be everything the witches in Winslow fear and the Corbin name will be respected once again—as long as Graeme Hewitt stays out of his way.

Harrison Phillip Fletcher III isn't supposed to be here. Not in Burlington, Vermont, not running Vino & Veritas, a quaint inclusive bookstore and wine bar, and definitely not still alive, at 42. Also not supposed to be here? An unexpected delivery of chickens. Finn Barnes knows chickens. The burly organic farmer knows all about rare breed poultry, but dealing with a hot older bookseller is an entirely different matter. City-slicker types like Harrison never end up staying in Vermont for the long-term. They should steer clear of each other. But the flare of attraction is mutual.

I'm a loan shark. Breaking people is in my blood. The Haynes were supposed to be a straightforward job. Go in and pull the trigger twice. One bullet for Charlie, one for his sister. But when I saw Valentina, I wanted her. Only, in our world, those who owe us don't get second chances. No way in hell will my mother let her live. So I devised a plan to keep her. It's depraved. It's immoral. It's dubious. It's perfect. Just like her.

Living in a year around Christmas town has its drawbacks. The caroling, the decorations, the insanely cheery spirit, it never disappears.

And all was going according to plan until my nemesis, Storee Taylor, moved in next door to care for her Aunt Cindy.

Loved It!
I really enjoyed this book. This is the first book I've listened to by this author. This story had such wonderful characters! I really loved both Silvio and Giovanni. This story was a beautiful and emotional journey of love and grief as they come to terms with Valentin's death- who was Silvio's brother and Gio's master- and heal and love.
I listened to this as an audiobook narrated by Daniel Carter. He did a fantastic job with his narration and the different voices. He spoke clearly and smoothly and I found his voice very soothing and compelling. This is the first I've listened of him and must find more of his work!
Overall a very enjoyable audiobook!

Different ways to grieve
This book is so true to the fact that everyone grieves differently and even the same person grieves differently at different times after a death. Both Giovanni and Silvio are left reeling by Valentin's death and this is the story of how they find their way into a new and different relationship that allows them to still love Valentin and honor his memory while moving on and building a new life. Nothing is easy here, the emotions are raw and right on the surface but it was a story I couldn't put down. Reading it is a different experience from listening to the audiobook with a brilliant performance by Daniel Carter. Hearing these two is both more heartbreaking but in the end more hopeful as well.

Beautiful Conclusion to Giovanni Trilogy
I liked this final book in the trilogy. This story, like previous books, takes reader on an emotional journey of survival, discovery, passion and love, but also grief and loss. I like Silvio a lot, he is probably my favorite character in this story, a pillar of support, he brings a spark of light and joy in the dark dark world Gio lives in. Narrator did a great job with character voices and telling this story, his talented work made this captivating tale a beautiful listening experience.

Learning and loving through loss
After reading the blurb I decided to give this author a try. I think going into this book I lucked but not reading the first two books in the trilogy. Not knowing the relationships and learning from the MCs made me enjoy the story. Giovanni is a sub that needs everything from Silvio. Silvio needs to learn how to work to understand what Giovanni needs and the confidence to give it to him. The intersections are tender, smoldering, and so much more. it's honestly difficult to describe.
This audio is fantastic. Each character is given a distinct voice. His voice is lovely and I will be looking for more books narrated by him.
The only issue I had with the story is some of the intimate scenes. Make sure to read all the trigger warnings.
Over all the audio was solid.

Bruisingly Emotional
This final installment is just a beautifully written as the first two... although, the depths of grief in this one are often quite heartbreaking. Most of the emotional content will most likely leave you feeling bruised. The overall sense of loss may leave you feeling adrift. Prepare to feel the pain of these characters deeply. Lascarso never disappoints. She is a truly gifted wordsmith with a staggering talent for language and prose. 4.5 stars... docking half a star for leaving me gutted.
Greatly appreciated and admired Daniel Carter's absolutely outstanding audio performance bringing these compelling characters to life. A gorgeous listening experience!

This really was an awesome ending to this series I love the narration. I am so happy I got more of Giovanni story. He is truly a complicated soul with the way the author created him. I loved the bdsm elements and the way they were woven into the book!

Hope after grief
Gio is at a loss after loosing his Master. He is adrift and in need of a new anchor.
Silvio is essentially just as lost as Gio, but only thing is he doesn’t know how to connect with Gio on that deeper level like Master had.
A book at its core about loss and finding the hope and want to move on from it. Gio and Silvio find it each other by connecting in a way unique to them. The journey they take you on as they do that is magnificent as it’s riddled with emotion, passion and kink as well.
This book was a fantastic way to conclude Giovanni’s tale.
The narration was spectacular and captured each characters emotion beautifully. An absolute joy to listen to.

I really enjoyed this last installment in the trilogy seeing both Giovanni and Silvio work through their grief over losing Valentin and building their own relationship up to be stronger and watching Giovanni grow was great and I’m happy with how things ended up for everyone
