KING OF LOST VOWS - Mafia Lords in Love, #4

He mourned her for twelve years. Then he opened her grave and found it empty.

Gabriel Valenti has built his life around control. Feared by his enemies and trusted by his powerful family, he believes every threat can be anticipated and every weakness can be buried. But nothing prepares him for a recent photograph of Alessia Romano, the woman whose death destroyed the man he used to be.

Alessia survived the fire that was meant to erase her. Since that night, she has lived beneath borrowed names, protecting vulnerable witnesses from the criminal network that stole her identity. Returning to Gabriel could expose them all. Staying away could allow an enemy to turn the secrets she guards into a weapon.

When Gabriel finds her alive, grief becomes fury. He wants the truth about the night she vanished, the people who betrayed them, and why she never came home. Alessia knows that telling him everything could unleash the vengeance she once sacrificed herself to prevent.

Forced into an uneasy alliance, they follow a trail of empty graves, coded messages, hidden ledgers, and deadly family secrets. Every discovery draws them closer to the conspiracy that separated them and to the desire neither managed to bury.

But Gabriel no longer knows whether he is protecting Alessia or imprisoning her, and she must decide whether trusting him is an act of courage or the mistake that will destroy them both.

In a world where loyalty is purchased and promises become weapons, can two broken hearts reclaim the future stolen from them?

An emotionally intense story filled with a ruthless protector, courageous heroine, dangerous secrets, family betrayal, forced proximity, suspense, and a hard-won happily-ever-after.

Enter the Valenti world today.
