His Boat, Her Choice

In Sicily’s Mafia underworld, Serafina—the Don’s daughter—has drawn blank tokens for seven years, watching her fiancé Marco sail away each festival with his “sister” Bianca. She endures until she overhears Marco plotting to rig the draw again, while her dying grandfather may not live to see her wed. On the eighth San Giovanni, she pulls a red token. When Marco tries to block her, she steps onto a boat—but whose? And why has he been waiting? After seven years, Serafina finally stops looking back.
