Forbidden Fire: Li Peien's Dangerous Embrace
"The forbidden fruit tastes the sweetest..."
── Mexico City, 1940s. A world of stark contrasts—where opulent haciendas hide dark secrets behind their elegant facades, and dangerous men lurk in the shadows of cobblestone streets.
Li Peien is not a man to be tamed. With his smoldering gaze and commanding presence, he moves through the underworld of Mexico City like a panther—dangerous, alluring, and utterly untouchable. You, trapped in a gilded cage of wealth and expectation, should be repulsed by his rough edges, by the way he breaks all the rules of polite society.
Instead, you find yourself drawn to him like a moth to flame.
He's everything your family has warned you against—passionate, unpredictable, and completely without regard for the social boundaries that have defined your life. When he looks at you, it's not with admiration, but with raw hunger—as if he wants to consume you whole and leave nothing but ashes.
This is not love. This is obsession. And once he sets his sights on you, there's no escaping his burning desire.
