About this listen
Lucas Lozano es mosso d’esquadra en la Unidad de Desaparecidos. Está trabajando en el caso de un adolescente que vino a España a jugar al fútbol para abrirse camino y que nadie sabe dónde está.
Paula Carrington es una periodista cuyo cometido es destapar los trapos sucios de los ricos y poderosos.
Ambos comparten un pasado en común que los dos pretenden olvidar después de que Paula dejase plantado a Lucas tres años atrás.
Sin embargo, cuando la mejor amiga de Paula, la famosa modelo e influencer Valentina Aradia, deja de dar señales de vida, Paula no ve otra salida que afrontar sus sentimientos ambivalentes hacia el guapo mosso y pedir su ayuda para encontrar a Valentina.
Pero Lucas no parece estar por la labor de ayudarla y Paula decide investigar por su cuenta, sin saber dónde se está metiendo.
Dos casos de desapariciones que nada tienen que ver.
Una app exclusiva, a la que pocos pueden tener acceso y que esconde un universo oscuro lleno de lujo y perversión.
Dos mundos opuestos que colisionan para demostrar que las apariencias nunca son lo que parecen.
Adéntrate en "Luxus: entre el lujo y la lujuria", un thriller erótico adictivo, lleno de acción, intriga, tensión sexual, humor, giros inesperados y, por supuesto, amor, escrito por la reina de erótica española, Rose Gate.

Me llamo Alina Hoxha y he sido secuestrada. Ni siquiera sé cómo pude caer en una trampa tan vieja, pero ahí estaba, metida en un avión junto a otras mujeres tan asustadas como yo, rumbo a un futuro incierto. Mi prometedora carrera como artista había quedado relegada a un décimo plano, ahora no tenía que preocuparme por que las musas me abandonaran, sino por que mi vida no fuera un infierno oculto en la arena.

Story
My fiancé brought me tea and scrambled eggs in bed that morning, and we snuggled together, talking about buying our rings, and about our perfect wedding next year. Then we headed into town. He held my hand and gazed at the ring I liked best, a smile spreading slowly over his face. Then a glass of bubbly to celebrate. I felt flushed, excited and ready for the rest of my life with the man I loved. We race to get on the train home. It screams to a halt and I run towards its open doors. Made it. I think he’s right behind me — but when I turn around, he’s gone.

Two little girls stand with their heads bowed in my living room. I’m told they’re my granddaughters. Daisy is nine, and Alice seven. Daisy is the spitting image of her mother. This is the first time I’ve met them since my daughter and I fell out after she married that waste of space, Vince. They’ve come to live with me because their mother — my daughter — was murdered. In her own home while they slept close by. I think Vince killed her. But the police can’t prove it. I’ve always known he was no good. He treated my daughter like dirt. I said he’d cheat on her — but she wouldn’t listen.

Jazz Bashara is a criminal. Well, sort of. Life on Artemis, the first and only city on the moon, is tough if you're not a rich tourist or an eccentric billionaire. So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent. Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down.
