The Stolen Sapphire: A Mafia Wife Revenge Romance (Mafia Wife Revenge Romance Series)
About
He put his wife’s heirloom sapphires around his mistress’s throat. His wife takes the proof to the Don who has always known her worth.
Francesca Marchetti-Vitale has spent thirty years keeping other people’s secrets. She’s Matteo Vescari’s right hand, Sal Marchetti’s daughter, and a wife who’s learned exactly which questions aren’t hers to ask.
Then she opens her grandmother’s jewelry box and finds it empty.
The sapphires are gone. So, she slowly realizes, is the marriage she thought she had. Her husband Adriano has spent nine months building a second life with Simone Calder, the company’s ambitious HR director — a secret cottage, borrowed traditions, and now, worn against another woman’s throat, the one thing Francesca’s grandmother ever asked her to protect. What Adriano doesn’t understand is exactly whose daughter he married, or what it costs a man to betray a family that built its loyalty the slow way.
Francesca doesn’t scream. She watches, the way her father taught her, and gathers proof the same patient way her family has always collected what it’s owed. When she finally calls in the debt, in front of everyone who matters, it’s the Don and the Underboss standing behind her, and a husband who mistook her quiet for weakness gets to spend the rest of his life understanding exactly how wrong he was.
Matteo Vescari has waited a long time to ask her a different question. This time, Francesca finally lets herself say yes.
