The Underboss’s Abandoned Bride

Two years after my blood-sworn sister married into the Falcone Family,she introduced me to the older brother.It felt almost like fate,the way our lives intertwined.Adriana married the younger one,Luca,the Family's Consigliere and legal fixer whose courtroom authority kept judges quiet and federal files thin.I married Dante,the firstborn,a celebrated trauma surgeon whose hospital career hid his real purpose:the Falcone Family's clandestine medico,the man who stitched soldiers back together after wars no newspaper reported.From the outside,it looked like we had both married into perfect lives.
