The author sets a stand-alone story that explores forbidden love aligned with the seven deadly sins while allowing minor crossover with other books in the Soho Knights and Sinful Knights shared world. The narrative includes personal grief, discussions of homophobia and transphobia, and portrayals of political underhandedness, with no graphic depiction of violence or self-harm.","HIDDEN GREED  \nSINFUL KNIGHTS SERIES  \n[OceanofPDF.com](OceanofPDF.com)  \nHidden Greed  \n© 2026 Oliver Takely All rights reserved.  \nThis book is a work of fiction.

Nobody is perfect, and neither are my characters. It’s their flaws and the way they confront life’s obstacles that make them fully realised individuals. In creating this world, I wanted to portray men with mental struggles and troubled hearts, whose experiences ultimately lead them to become better versions of themselves when they find their own HEA.  \nHidden Greed is from my Sinful Knights series. These stories are all stand-alone, set in the same universe as my Soho Knights series. Each book explores a taboo or forbidden love, and is aligned to one of the seven deadly sins. Milo, who is one of the MCs in this book, also appears in Broken Promises, which is book five in the Soho Knights series. There is some crossover of events, so there are minor spoilers if you haven’t read that book yet.  \nIn terms of trigger warnings for Hidden Greed, both MCs have lost their parents, so this is touched on, as well as a secondary character losing a parent. The topic of homophobia and transphobia is discussed, but nothing graphic is depicted on the page, although there are some unpleasant comments from secondary characters. Edward is a senior politician, so some of the more underhand workings of government are depicted, which may be triggering for some given the current political climate, although this  \nis not extensive. Your mental health is of upmost importance, so please prioritise this before deciding whether to read the book.  \nI hope you enjoy reading Milo and Edward’s story. Love and best wishes,  \nOliver Takely  \n[OceanofPDF.com](OceanofPDF.com)  \nCHAPTER 1 MILO  \nMilo desperately needed a shag!  \nIt had been far too long, and his balls felt like they resembled those of an elephant. It wasn’t even about romance; he just needed an itch scratched. Three months was an alarming dry spell for him. Milo would love to find a guy to settle down with, but that was unlikely given his tastes, so he’d take a night of hot fucking right now. Even his flatmates were looking like a consideration, but they’d known each other for years, so it would feel icky if he went there after all this time.  \nMilo had been on his own since his mother died when he was fifteen. His foster parents had been pleasant enough and given him a home for three years, but Milo knew he was just a pay check to them. There’d been five other kids in that house, all under ten, so he was the outlier.","cbCaihK75SHUnzUF","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaihK75SHUnzUF","pdf",1765030,162,"English","en",105,"# Author note\n# Chapter 1 Milo\n# Chapter 2 Edward\n# Chapter 3 Milo\n# Chapter 4 Edward\n# Chapter 5 Milo\n# Chapter 6 Edward\n# Chapter 7 Milo\n# Chapter 8 Edward\n# Chapter 9 Milo\n# Chapter 10 Edward\n# Chapter 11 Milo\n# Chapter 12 Edward\n# Chapter 13 Milo\n# Chapter 14 Edward\n# Chapter 15 Milo\n# Chapter 16 Edward\n# Chapter 17 Milo\n# Chapter 18 Edward\n# Epilogue","[{\"question\":\"Hidden Greed belongs to which series and universe?\",\"answer\":\"Hidden Greed is from the Sinful Knights series.
